This thing looks like a nightmare.

Can't wait for my employer to roll us over to Win11 and see Recall rollout to more PCs -.-

Cheers, always good to be aware of these concepts even if Pythons is far from 'blazingly fast'

Ahh, I hadn't realised these aren't part of Player Core 2.

Do we have any idea where they will be released - in some Godsrain book?

Just starting to dip my toe into PF2e from various D&D's so I might be missing some otherwise common knowledge.

Ah, woops, I see this is 5th edition, mistook the thumbnail for the much earlier 3rd Ed version

Codex Compliant - DE 3rd Ed

I must have read this thing cover to cover a dozen times when I was a youngster over at my uncle's house. Absolutely nailed the atmosphere of the depraved dregs of the original Eldar hedonists.

10 years in electronics, and I'm yet to hear solder once despite working for an international firm.

I saw this recommended elsewhere on Lemmyna few days ago and have given it a shot after a month or two trying AnySoftKeyboard - its great.

It may not be as obviously feature laden with additional keyboards etc as ASK but it has much better defaults - all of the extra punctuation is where my fingers just expect it to be after a long time on SwiftKey.

ooh, this is great, lets hope there's some adoption.

Im quite happy with just a few additions to basic markdown, however I've been holding off using canvases much because they're not portable, should Obsidian turn to the dark side so perhaps im missing out.

Any recommended usecases for canvases over notes?

Sounds like the book would be a great resource.

I've hopped out of electronics and now make a living coding in an adjacent area, but find myself working with colleagues that are happy approaching all tasks like a script.

Code reviews, coupling etc arent part of their vocab so in lieu of peer role models im on the look out for good resources thst aren't just chasing the next buzzword.

I started trying to use Joplin and couldnt get over it using a database rather than raw .md files. Once I'd added a bevy of plugins the UI really didnt seem to be handling thinhgs well.

I considered VS Code ± Foam and found myself doing a lot of the work baked into Hopping/Obsidian myself, and could see coming a less rich plugin ecosystem once I was done.

Quite happily using Obsidian now and managing my files myself. Glad I can just get on with de-OneNoting now.

Seeing privacy & security taken seriously offsets the lack of OSS for me.

I really enjoyed the couple games I've had of the newer edition. The small changes they made felt quite impactful and that bit more dynamic than the original, though it's been long enough I don't recall the details.

You can also put vim inside VSCode via extensions!

 

Hi folks, I've been planning to install built-in shelves for a while now around our chimney and could do with a more experienced eye before committing.

Any help much appreciated!

There's a few areas I think I need advice in:

  1. Suitable fixings for an irregular wall
  2. Suitable timber at a reasonable price with limited toolset
  3. Finish

Fixings: I plan to affix a few lengths of 10mm square strip wood to the wall with raw plugs & timber screws, aligning the top surface of these strips may be a challenge. I'll then route out several pockets along the bottom edge of each shelf, then placing the pockets over the strips. Wood glue and panel pins will keep the shelves in place.

The shelves will be filled with books which I appreciate really add up - there are more to come than shown in the currently pictured bookshelf!

Timber: I've never purchased timber before other than some sheet plywood. I don't have access to a planer or table saw, so I believe I'll need to somewhat overpay for PAR timber close to final dimensions & cut down to length with a circular saw. I plan to order ~50mm longer than necessary as the walls are far from square.

The dimensions are 7 shelves of 25mm thick, 260mm wide, ~1650mm long. I also plan 3 more shelves on the opposite side, only 1050mm.

Pricing is leading me towards a pine (scandinavian redwood), am I setting myself up for disappointment? (Too soft, cheap finish?)

Am I missing any tricks? Just outside of a common dimension? Will 25mm be sufficient once 11mm is routed out for the pockets?

I have looked at window boards - these are an option, but are shallower than preferred at ~225mm max width.

timber2udirect and a few others are looking like £600.

Finish: I've been really impressed by the Fiddes Hard Wax Oil I used to restore my kitchen counter, I plan to get some of this with a light/antique satin finish.

I'm in the UK, hiring a van for this amount of timber could be an option, but I was planning on delivery. I can get access to most hand tools, but larger equipment isn't practical. Is the lack of a planer shooting
