Echo, the bunny finally found the one!! The perfect carrot!! The moment he took a bite, the world around him faded out, nothing else mattered.
(Fun fact: Carrots werenโ€™t always orange! They used to be purple, yellow, or even white before being bred into the color we know today)

I forget if I posted this here, but I'm offering an eBook version of my first book for free for another month or so.

https://unixdragon.com/Theta/

The purpose of this is to introduce people to my story universe and my series, plus a bit of marketing for the books to come . . . but mostly to get eyes on it to find and fix any errors that came through in setting up the new printing.

(For publishing/ebook nerds: The first version of Theta was a custom-authored ePub version for each platform. It was ok, but it broke on quite a few of them. Generation twoโ€”this generationโ€”I'm using Vellum, which I used for Dreams of Refugium. It was expensive, but worth it :)

This piece was inspired by a drawing I did back in 2015, one I had completely forgotten about! During an art jam at my second ever furry convention, MFF 2015, I doodled a random fox with his hands hidden behind his back (probably because I was too lazy to draw hands, haha).

I later learned that, at the time, a boy saw my sketch and imagined I had drawn his fursona. He shared this confession with me just a year ago, and I found it so heartwarming. It reminded me that even the simplest drawings can hold deep meaning for those who see them.

Hereโ€™s the original piece from 2015: https://www.deviantart.com/pandapaco/art/Random-fox-not-Biro-584883747

And now, 10 years later, Iโ€™ve reimagined the drawing, this time making Adam the character of it. He still playfully hides his hands, as if up to something mischievous.

Picture for Adam, the cute fox.

You'll even spot how I initially tried to reveal his hands (breaking my old habit of avoiding them) only to hide them again for nostalgia's sake!

The characters you draw are some of the most charming creatures I've ever laid eyes on.๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ’•

I dunno how you manage to pack so much endearing (& enduring!๐Ÿ˜‰) personality into your portraits, but I can *easily* pick your art out from the crowd whenever I stumble upon it.๐Ÿฅฐ

Thanks for making such lovely character paintings, and for sharing them with us, here!๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŽ‰โœจ๐Ÿ™


Pippin friendica
Given that this may be one of the most joyful things I've ever laid eyes (or rather, ears) on, why do I sometimes find myself close to crying when I listen to it?
1
Pippin friendica
The answer, I think, is that a lot of things like this make me feel some really painful nostalgia or regret. Like I've lost part of my life, something I previously had or did that I enjoyed, and will never have again; or that I'm never going to get something into my life that I really want to happen, or that I've missed the window of time when it would be possible.

Chinese curses really are the best.

Everyone's heard "May you live in interesting times", of course. We're all living that.

Next on the ladder, it's "May you come to the attention of those in authority."

And the top of the scale? "May the Gods give you everything you wish for."

I kinda get that whole looking at a musician and saying "oh it looks effortless" when looking at the recent vid I put out... it was deffo not effortless (I learned that song yesterday and it took me a good hour to get a moderately ok take); the fingers aren't necessarily like going nuts. there was a lot of I guess "cross-fingering" and the scale was odd and the take was as fast as it was because I was running out of patience

BUT, that's the whole idea of music, it's a snapshot of how you're feeling at the time, the mirror image - how people enjoy it, or interpret it is not up to you.

still, love the idea of reaching into the rich tapestry of folk and bringing it to the furry crowd, as much as I feel apprehension in this instance of given y'know recent tensions & the source material. I think it's personally irrelevant, culture is culture, and tunes are tunes and what's fundamental is the beauty of that particular melody and the rich history in it, glad to share it โค๏ธ

@DeltaWye I feel like you need to explain this one, I'd expect you'd normally use a synchroscope for that.
DeltaWye mastodon (AP)

You can use the brightness of a set of lightbulbs to verify synchronism. Each bulb is across the same phase letter on the two systems.

For a three phase system once the voltages, frequency, and rotation on the two sets of three phases match, the bulbs will all dim and then go out. Then you can sync.

"If you were a product person at IBM or Xerox, so you make a better copier or computer. So what? When you have monopoly market share, the company's not any more successful.

So the people that can make the company more successful are sales and marketing people, and they end up running the companies. And the product people get driven out of the decision-making forums, and the companies forget what it means to make great products. The product sensibility and the product genius that brought them to that monopolistic position gets rotted out by people running these companies that have no conception of a good product versus a bad product."

y'know, i always thought that folks such as Steve Jobs were predicting the future of the tech industry decades before such things we deal with now were commonplace. I've never been much of an Apple guy outside of their vintage products from the 80s and 90s, but I really do think that Apple during the 80s, 90s and 00s had actual products that could last for generations, with the only real things that go wrong being capacitors, PRAM batteries or brittle plastic after a couple of decades. these days it's like you buy an Apple device and it works, but only in the sense that it'll work really well for a little bit, then after a while, it'll still work, but it'll be knackered to hell and back.

About to take a shower, having been clambering around in my loft again.

It's definitely one of those "three solid points of contact at all times" lofts, not the wimpy floorboarded type; if you imagine all the plasterboard not being there, so between the joists it's a straight drop into the room (or stairwell!) below, that would probably inspire the correct amount of caution.

2
Pippin friendica
At least I have confirmed a cable route I'm planning! Found a couple of cables which go up to the loft inside one of the wardrobes, across to the front of the house, then down beside the stack pipe behind both the showers to a little boxed-in section next to the front door. They are part of the (non-functional) alarm system the house came with and I've confirmed they're the same at both ends by tying some string on where they poke out of the wall in the hall, pulling the wires from the loft, and verifying the string has been partly pulled into the wall. Now I can get some longer string and, while pulling out those redundant wires, I can pull through a cord to let me get whatever cabling I want through in future. First one going in will be ethernet from the study (just next to the front door so it'll be an easy drill-hole from that boxed-in bit) to the loft, down through that wardrobe, out into the loft over the utility room and into the little 6U network cabinet I'm planning to stick on the wall. ๐Ÿ™‚ Then there will be another one from the cabinet to a new hole I'll drill in the plasterboard above the stairs to hang a ceiling access point there. Another one to my office (one of the bedrooms repurposed - handily just the other side of the wall from the utility room loft). And probably others! There's a bunch of power sockets I want to add too when I get round to it.

I'm so glad I found Archive of Our Own and posted my (ongoing) Indigo Park fanfic there. Even after a few weeks of not having time to work on the next chapter, I still get occasional emails, like the one I got a few moments ago, saying things like "a guest left kudos on Trains of Thought" and it's a little mood bump every time that happens โ€” even more so when someone leaves an actual comment.

Pippin friendica
There's another fanfic there, Behind the Screen which I've been following since it was just a couple of chapters long which I love (it's now up to 166k words, pretty much novel length, and is supposedly going to be four times the length by the time it's finished). I keep wanting to do an audiobook-style reading of it but I have no idea if I should ask permission from the author first or just do it, or what. I do find it weird that for someone who doesn't like their own voice I do quite like reading/narrating stories and want to get better at it.

The fact that the majority of computer users have only 2 real options for browsers, Chrome and Firefox, and neither of them now takes a stand against selling user data, is the biggest selling point on us needing new options.

Google should have never been allowed to have as much browser share as it does.

Firefox should hear from every user that one of the main reasons we use their browser is they didn't sell our data.

And we need to support other browser makers. This needs to end.
