I did do some prototyping for some ammunition-bags for the llenn Cosplay yesterday.

My first idea did not really pan out as I wanted (I guess PU-Leather does slip too much on the feed dogs making very uneven seams.

So normal seems it is.

I have sewn the body of the pouch it was not really stable. Then I did add some top-stitching for some good looks.

I opened one seam of the pouch again. Did the top-stitch on 3 corners and it dawned on me. How can I do the 4 and last edge? I obviously need to assemble the 3D-shape of the bag again and top-stitching is added after that.

No chance getting into a normal sewing machine. Asking on reddit. No chance of getting that on a normal machine. I would need an upholstery-machine for that I was told.

Btw those are super cool you can rotate the needle so it can sew sideways lol.

So only hand-sewing left for me here. But the bags look nice already. I hate hand-sewing so much

good morning @mametsuko

TIL: Switch 2 is even more fun in japan. Seemingly they have a region-locked japanese-only variant costing 49.980 Yen.

You can get a multi-language system in japan generally. But have to jump through hoops like being a member of switch online for one year and other stuff. And then its just a raffle. Oh and also that switch will cost you 69.980 Yen. Lovely

The push buttons on my pink cosplay jacket are now fixed again (after some had fallen out )

I needed to cover-up the old holes though (like seen on the pic)

I do hope the new push buttons do not fall out but having the proper tool to put them in (imagine them like sorta calipers) really helps. So this should hold up

Kinda tired though

Throughout the day, the aspect ratio of the OnePlus Pad 3 has been stuck in the back of my mind. Considering the 3392x2400 resolution. There had to be some reason for the seemingly arbitrary 3392 when it's an even 2400 in the other direction.

It's not quite 3:2, which would be 3600x2400
Definitely not 4:3, but it's not an in-between 5:4 ratio either.
Spec sheet says, 7:5, but that's not quite right either.

Turns out it's a √2 aspect ratio (~1.41). The exact same as a sheet of A4 paper.

Someone asked how many Ayus there are (- ω -、)

I think there is no better compliment I could give to mangaka Shinichi Fukuda (Dress-up Darling) than this:

I was reading Volume 12 and beginning of volume 13 on my way to work today. And the Marin as Haniel and Gojos almost manic obsession with the costume had me captured so much.... I missed my train stop

Well it did not help I had headphones on (with no music but they still dampen noises)

The very fine captivating artstyle had me ensnared I guess.

I need advice from people who know bicycles: I have a rear wheel that's bent and needs to be replaced. The tire and tube are fine, as is the hub/bearing. The outer diameter of the rim is 25", and the label on it says 622x20. The tire is 700x38C, but also says 40-622. I haven't taken the tire off to measure the width of the rim.

Is that "622x20" number sufficient to describe a replacement wheel? And can I swap out the hub, or do I need a wheel with identical gears and latch built in?

look its @aetios together with @HatsuneMiku
