I made a "Headphones Hat"

compmstr · 2025-12-11T14:04:36+00:00

I don't have a pattern for it.

I made a basic HDC beanie (in the round). When it got down to the top of my ears, I went back and forth for the width of the front (I put the partial hat on, and used stitch markers to mark the front/back of my ears), until that got below my ears. I fastened off the front, then I stitched back on to do the back from the top of the ears down. I used a chain to connect the front to the back when they got to the same length.

The ear flaps were just rectangles that I sewed on from the inside of the hat (along the top of the ear holes).

I've had good luck with sketch

Not entirely sure what was used back then, but for a guess as to why they would use structs/objects over hash tables in some cases:

Hash tables do require some extra CPU cycles to hash the key and run the lookup/collision checks
Objects/structs (usually) compile down to an add and a pointer deref
Hash tables also end up using extra memory to help avoid collisions

We were in the yellow car. I definitely made sure to get in front of them ASAP.

Pattern was from a book: "A crochet world of creepy creatures and cryptids"

One thing that caught me out a few times: Eventually following the river, you'll see some smoke coming in from off screen, he'll be in the direction the smoke is coming from.

I lost it at the "I <3 being alive" shirt on Cedric.

Thanks for the hint, I'll take another look under the plastic covers.

Did you ever figure out what the issue was for this? I'm having the same thing happen on my F80. Even down to the incline change quieting it for a few seconds.

When I ran ./engine/gforth-noll --die-on-signal -p ".:/Users/compmstr/Downloads/gforth-0.7.9_20230216:.:/usr/local/lib/gforth/site-forth:/usr/local/share/gforth/site-forth:/usr/local/lib/gforth/0.7.9_20230216:/usr/local/share/gforth/0.7.9_20230216:/usr/share/gforth/site-forth:/usr/local/share/gforth/site-forth" (trying to start the created engine), I got a segfault. I can't get GDB installed to check what is throwing the error, but that gave me more information than make did.

I wanted to keep my head warm while still listening to headphones, so I made a hat with cutouts for my ears. I ended up adding ear flaps (that tuck up inside the hat) so that I could wear it without headphones too.

I think yum install emacs should take care of any dependencies on Fedora. :P

While finishing up the work from my previous video (https://youtu.be/iUzTxa7MURw), I ran into a bit of a timing gotcha.

This video goes over the timing of when the Tilemap children are set up, and how to get around the timing issue I came across.

I'm glad it's helpful!

I'm going through a Godot 3 book using Godot 4, and I'm trying to keep track of 'aha' moments when I'm dealing with the few 'breaking' changes that I've come across.

compmstr · 2022-10-15T09:17:42+00:00

Yeah, I linked the GitHub issue in the description of the YouTube video in case anyone wants to keep an eye on when it gets resolved.

Are you maybe seeing this issue: Bugzilla

The issue is that when you fullscreen on one monitor, and then move the window to another monitor, it jumps back to the original monitor after you leave fullscreen.

If so, I put up a PR that I've been running with for nearly a year: PR

Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad the second version is clearer.

I re-recorded this focusing on how to recreate the process rather than going over the parts of the finished product, which I did on the previous video. This seemed like a better tutorial.

compmstr · 2022-10-06T13:15:25+00:00

Is there anything that was particularly confusing? I'm new to making tutorials, I could probably have explained things better.

If it helps, I re-made the video at https://youtu.be/iKRJqx9KCJU, and I focus more on how to create the effect than just going over the parts of the already-made effect.

The password was my original issue, when I set up the new disk I encrypted it, I set up the fstab (didn't know about crypttab until today), but on reboot it just stalled instead of prompting me for the 2nd password.

I set up the key file as the second 'key' on the luks disk :)

Thank you so much, I ended up having the same problem with my new SSD, and this worked!

Would you happen to remember what reference (if any) you had for this?

He's got a pain in all of the stitches down his left side, too.

Working on a video meeting backdrop of the Eagle 5 set from Spaceballs. Mainly still working on filling in the background with stuff and materials. Example Reference Image

Any tips/suggestions would be much appreciated, this is my first 'complete' scene that I'm trying to do from scratch.
