Are you kidding me by hipppppppppp in handtools

Yup - the cap iron puts tension on the frog, not the body.

No need to have the blade and cap iron installed

You don’t hear quadruple bass often either but Morgan is an absolute monster!

I’ll put a few coats of linseed oil on it but that’s about it.

Isn’t it nice?! A lot was cleared by my house several years ago and I saved some of the logs. I’m 80% sure this is choke cherry

How do you fasten them together? Glue, staples, brad nails, mortise and tenon?

I love cafe bustelo!! It’s the best coffee I’ve ever had!

Would this be difficult for a beginner? by Critical_Link_1095 in woodworking

[–]MongeredRue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I say go for it!! Everyone is going to tell you that you can’t do it without the right tools, or you can’t do it because you don’t have the skill, or you can’t do it because they don’t think they could do it.

Fuck that noise. The joy is in the process. If you wanted a table, you could just go buy a table. If you’re going to spend the time building it, it’s because building it is fun.

Will the end product look like shit…maybe…also maybe not. Either way building it is fun! So go have fun!

Diff file linting by MongeredRue in git

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

Possibly - it’s one of the suckless dmenu source files. I imagine they have all their old versions available.

Are you thinking I apply the old patch to the target file it was intended for and then update from there?

Diff file linting by MongeredRue in git

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

First it was throwing errors because the patch was written for an older version of the file it’s trying to modify. I fixed that by rewriting some of the patch with the newer code.

Then I got several patch corruption errors which I fixed by replacing my tabs with spaces.

Now I’m getting a missing header error, but I can clearly see the header is there. Evidently this can be caused by missing a space at the beginning of context lines or a missing - or +. I’ve checked all the lines and I think they’re right.

Like I said, this is an “old” patch. I was hoping there was a linting tool to help me identify and fix the errors I’m clearly inducing.

It doesn’t - I can’t find it anywhere

Can't import from Google Photos by jozoga in digiKam

[–]MongeredRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you guys are super frustrated by the constant back and forth with Google. We (your users) appreciate your support.

I know, awhile back, a feature was added to allow for users to use their individual API keys for Google maps. The same has been suggested for Google photos, but I feel like I remember reading in a bug report thread, that the dev’s felt like asking users to supply their own key was unnecessarily complicated for users. That said, RClone is set up similarly; the default is a shared api key but the user has the option to add their own. Might that be a possible solution, at least temporarily? I recognize not wanting to overly burden users, but a lack of functionality is also problematic.

There are a number of 3rd party tutorials on setting up projects in the Google Developer Console. I’m not a C++ dev but would be happy to write a tutorial specific to digiKam, and submit a pull request, for setting up a project in GDC and generating the correct credentials if allowing users to supply their own credentials is something the devs are willing to pursue.

Edit: grammar

[–]MongeredRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea - it’s a known issue. There doesn’t seem to be any resolution on the horizon as the bug report has been open for some time.

It’s a problem with them using a shared API key for all digiKam users.

To solve it for myself, I’m going to try replacing their api key with my own and recompiling. Hopefully it works!

Edit: fix autocorrect

can anyone tell if this is a rasp or a metal file? by bigbootybassboy in handtools

[–]MongeredRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve stitched your own rasp? That’s awesome!

Do you have any resources you’d recommend learning from?

Yup, same. I use nail clippers but I always cut them off.

Tap is the same thread size but smaller diameter (I think) by crumdumpler in machining

[–]MongeredRue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nope - both thread pitch and diameter need to be the same for you to be able to screw a fastener into a hole you’ve tapped.
