Every letter we send as Hundred Rabbits has a spirograph drawing at the back, I tend to mix and match cogs until I find a pattern I like.
For a while now I was wondering if I could guess how many turns it takes to close a line based on the number of teeth and I JUST figured it out.
First, I get the gcd(cog, ring), for example gcd(42, 96) = 6, then I take the ring teeth count and divide it by that number 96/6 = 16 turns, works every time.

Tomรกลก, have you ever thought of trying [Unison]? It's supposed to be like rsync, but bidirectional.
It's been on the back of my mind, since I make heavy use of syncthing, but I think unison + tailscale could be a much more lightweight alternative.
GitHub - bcpierce00/unison: Unison file synchronizer
Unison file synchronizer. Contribute to bcpierce00/unison development by creating an account on GitHub.GitHub
I think we lost files with that once.
Bidirectional things are fun, until they figure out wrongly which side is newer.

I have to warn you there will be another enamel pin design up on the store this week, so if there's any chance you might want an alternative design or both, you may want to hold off on making orders for now to save on shipping.

I have a weird fascination with early-stage Bill Gates, after his mother convinced a pal of hers - chairman of IBM's board of directors - to give her son the contract to provide the operating system for the new IBM PC. Gates and his pal Paul Allen tricked another programmer into selling them the rights to DOS, which they sold to IBM, setting Microsoft on the path to be one of the most profitable businesses in human history.

in reply to It's FOSS • • •I guess a few niche use cases of the discussion system exist, like going back to a book you paused reading few years ago and having it give you a summary, or starting a book, wondering "have I read it before", and asking AI if this is the book where X does Y.
But I suspect the "reading recommendation system that suggests similar books based on your selection" will get used more.
