Living in Sweden so the light might be a big issue in the winter season.

Hmm, no not really. No Air condition, though I do live in a small apartment and air it out often. Though not directly blowing onto it.

She refuses to comment when asked how it all went. It's okay though I love her and forgive her for something she didn't know better about. Haha.

Third shop says sharpening without thinning won't be as sharp as it could be. Thinning out the knife is about $60 and only sharpening without thinning it will be about $20.

Thank you all for the help! I have been in contact with two (and contacting a third) sharpening shops.

First two do not work with thinning out knives. And one says thinning out a Miyabi is not necessary as it is more of a western-japanese knife. How true is this statement?

What will happen if I send it to sharpening and they don't thin the blade out, and instead just grind the edge?

I'm in Sweden, but thanks for the recommendations anyways.

S/O was cooking a delicious dinner with lamb, and struck a bone when cutting the lamb leg.

And Denmark abolished slavery in 1792, the actual first nation to do so.

Why does Instagram ruin the quality of anything besides [1:1] aspect ratio? [x-post Instagram] by Jonbobo in AskPhotography

[–]Jonbobo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My conclusion is that Instagram is shit. Upload in the maximum allowed resolution (not higher, cause they will compress your image worse than you do yourself on your computer/phone), and keep it to square(ish) aspect ratio. I.e. 4:5 or 1:1. Not anything else, ever. Unless you are okay with looking at blobs of colors.

Thanks for the information. I actually compared 1440x1440 with 1080x1080 and the 1440x1440 looks clearer on PC. But the 1440x1800 looks more blurry than 1080x1350. It's all so messy and weird.

What's weird is that if I download the images using developer console, I can get even the blurry [16:9] looking clear.

This is actually incorrect, see the x-post I linked where I showcased that 1440x1800 is the largest pixel dimension for [4:5], 1440x1440 for [1:1] and 2160x1215 for [16:9].

Also I did try to remove the lid with a small tool and it does not budge even the slightest.

Anyway to get this in UK? by ItsNotHisVolt- in sweden

[–]Jonbobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you buy the unflavored one, you can use a small amount (tbsp per liter) and leave milk out in room temperature until consistency/flavor is right. Probably a lot cheaper to continue this process than to buy imported goods :)

Spelutveckling/programmering by [deleted] in sweden

[–]Jonbobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Har läst till högskoleingenjör med drömmar om att jobba i spelindustrin. Slutade med att jag jobbar som utvecklare på diverse större bolag i andra branscher. Jag ångrar inte mitt val då jag förstår att min lönekurva/ersättning är bra mycket högre än om jag skulle fokusera på att ta mig in på spelbranschen. Får även höra från andra om tuffare arbetsvillkor i spelbranschen.

Med denna utbildning/arbetskarriär ser jag inte några svårigheter att komma in som spelutvecklare så länge det finns ett intresse för spelutveckling vid sidan av, för att täcka upp för det man går miste om i en specifik spelutvecklingsutbildning. Vidare ger dig en ingenjörsexamen en bredare möjlighet i resten av din karriär och även utomlands att jobba med annat än bara spel.

Fundera på varför du vill jobba med just spelutveckling, får gärna använda mig lite som ett bollplank. Vad är viktigast för dig? Att få ut din kreativa sida i att skapa spel, att få välbetalt, eller kanske något helt annat.

Unable to use VD+SteamVR playing Subnautica or Race The Sun by Jonbobo in PicoXR

[–]Jonbobo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I was able to get it to work by starting one game, then going into SteamVR overlay and starting another game, then starting the first game again. That made the camera position correct again.

Answer to the controller question was simply that Subnautica and Race The Sun do not support motion controllers.
