hmmm Mastodon-Terminologie-Frage: heißt es eigentlich retröt oder retrööt?
was ich mich schon ewig frage: warum sind eigentlich RJ45 Buchsen so oft verkehrt (also mit der Rastnase nach unten) eingebaut, z.B. bei Laptops? Das ist doch Mist, man bekommt das Kabel nicht raus ohne das ganze Gerät anheben zu müssen…

Yesterday, I finally figured out how to use my Tajine on my induction stove. Attempts with various “adapter plates” were a bust, the Tajine just wouldn’t heat up properly while said adapter got hot as hell, causing the stove to shut off. I have now bought a very shallow cast-iron pan (called “pizza pan”) that is sightly wider than the Tajine at the base. Using this and putting about 5mm of oil on it (i.e. under the Tajine!) finally enhanced heat-flow enough. Yay! #cooking

the other day (in spring) I got a roll of Fujifilm Acros, which exists again, based on the fact that the Acros simulation in Fujifilm digital cameras looks very nice. Turns out, it’s not easy to expose correctly, most of all if you use an old point-and-shoot (Minolta HiMatic GF). Lots of mushy, flat grey pics. BUT: the “haze removal” module in #darktable helps a lot with that!
new album by #polish #goth #electro band Stridulum. I like it a lot after the first listen. https://strdlm.bandcamp.com/album/paradigm
TIL that GNU Octave does have a dark mode for its GUI, it’s just not an obvious one-click toggle in the “view” menu. My eyes are happy!
today I realized that, since it’s made of cast iron, a dutch oven will work nicely on an induction plate (if it’s a dutch oven without stubby feet). Large amounts of veggie Chili were made as a result of this discovery.
