@blumlaut I know this post is a fucking year old but anyway..

I wonder how stuff is going for you still going strong?

@aetios Ah yeah there is this old post with most farty Clio Cup Car and the monsterous M3 Touring 24h

around the nürburgring-endurance layourt

If you like I can record some gameplay from Automobilista 2 and the Career Mod I recently found for it. I am having quite some fun there atm

@aetios Dunno If I am really the correct person to do that.

But I do enjoy. Especially fun with good online racing or the decent AI from Automobilista 2

the wheel is fun if a little finnicky sometimes and my setup is really not the best

But let me actually see if I can find you atleast a hotlap or something.

@aetios But tbh I also found some passion in other things. Sewing, Sim Racing and Lolita Fashion.

All these things can be a very nice escape for as well

@aetios I have some things to look forward as well which helps.

This Week is yet another Pride for me. Though it will be interesting what happens... Quite Conservative old hometown of mine.

Also a trip to france coming up soon.

@revengeday But not using DLSS (not smooth enough for that)

I knew its all a simulation...

@revengeday WAIT?! you are not actually living in the cyberspace?!

(enjoy your Mental Health Walk.

@aetios Totally understandable. The barrage of bad news can be much at the best of time.

But there is always some good stuff to look forward to, right?

I mean you are going to Japan soon (again) with your years long gf.

There is eth0 coming up soon-ish. And there is still so much cool stuff to explore and do.

@aetios I mean its not really only about what I am making in particular and maybe not even why LLM/"AI" is bad.

More about how much more enjoyable human creation and passion is.

I have made some patterns by Alex from House of Kimono.

This Bag: https://shark.lightnovel-dungeon.de/notes/ak5jmebas9wp0031

and this Kimono-Top: https://shark.lightnovel-dungeon.de/notes/anpoy3iu172o0crg

And his patterns were easy to follow and to use. But the thing that really keeps reminding me of his work is the videos that accompany some of the patterns.

The man is full of passion and joy for the japanese fashion. Like the videos radiate the good vibes and creativity. Its very much contagious.

Brings joy and motivation aswell.

@aetios Though I maybe could give you a little anecdote on my sewing adventures?

@aetios nothing ol-tele could not accomplish frame by frame... on a gameboy printer. /j

Jokes aside most stuff I know is rather long

@aetios I can only point you at a long video sorry

@lyli Tbh round edges are always kind shit. But also looking at my own shirt collars usually don't even use classic bias-tape with flaps (or double folds if you like) but rather stuff like Cuffs (german they are called Bündchen, bord-côte in french if deepl is to be believed?)

@lyli Yeah sure. But I had good luck on bias Tape with sewing clips. Very easy and secure.

Since the bias tape is always on the edge of the the fabric clips are super useful.

Other than that bias tape is really just practice I still do kinda struggle doing it correctly myself.

But for the most part I got it.

@lyli What exaxtly went wrong?

@rick @Stellar meet rick: who you can easily talk into doing shit for you to his owm detriment.

@wallmask3 @konato hot maido alert!

hi my friend made an entire fucking DAW after 5 years of keeping it secret, and it's free forever!
you don't want to miss it! the programming that went into it is genuinely unbelievable!

please share her work with your musician friends, she really needs (and deserves) the support!

@volpeon did it happen again?

@snow Thank you snow.

I do really wonder what we can do when even a democratic vote inside of a FOSS may shift it. The idea would be to support stuff with a clearer stance on it?

Hard questions for sure
