I made some toys for these delightful criminals.

This was my first attempt at amigurumi. It’s pretty clear that the yellow one was my first try - the holes are a bit big and I definitely lost count of something along the way - but the grey one turned out quite nicely. The ears were freestyled so each ended up a bit different, but the overall result was just what I was hoping for. Very satisfying!

Silksong: what an incredible game! Difficult, yes, but immensely satisfying.

I don’t know how many attempts this took but probably more than 50.
This took 8 years.

Here are two ‘milestones’ I completed this week: guess which one feels like the bigger achievement..?

Silksong

I have become very well acquainted with this particular bench today.

A demo webapp implementation for Commons is now available to browse here.

You are welcome to look around but beware that data is incomplete and not scheduled for regular updates because, for demo purposes, that would just be a waste of electricity. The site is read-only and user accounts are disabled.

Replacing Django templates, SASS, and creaky Gulp build scripts with NextJS. Hundreds of files - tens of thousands of liines - deleted!

Hosting for this site is now provided by a European company instead of Amazon.

It’s an extremely minor thing, but it is a thing nonetheless. 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Jigsaw pumpkin 🎃

3D printed jig to help drill holes in the right places for handles on new kitchen units. This saved many, many hours of measuring!

The continuing saga of Holiday Cat

A port of my old Android live wallpapers.

The animated clocks are based on old Google designs: FORM (by Roman Nurik), and the Google I/O countdown timers from 2016 and 2018.

This webapp currently only implements the FORM design but I intend to get round to finishing the others at some point.

N-body gravity playground written with Kotlin Multiplatform.

Added Webmention.has_been_read field and new settings for enabling webmentions depending on source/target domain.

Holiday cat, I guess
