If you choose Danish you get a separate key for it. That's kinda handy when your first language uses that.

Was thinking, it's the only one they've seen recently

Whatever happened to "pr0n"?

Also Ø is not a fancy O, neither is Ö btw https://youtube.com/shorts/S8XE2eig6Hs

They asked him to turn it down, but as a dj he was unable to reach the knobs

Also the Balrog's POV: old man mooning you yells "fly you fools" and goes at you dick out balls first.

Well, up periscope!

Not before she has an agreement with Mr Trump that she can show off.

You are equating Israel to all Jewish people.

No I'm not. I'm saying it's close to the rhetoric from 100 years ago, not the same.

That's offensive!

To whom? I personally find it offensive, that you would try such a cheap trick to end this argument. Purposefully misinterpreting my comment in an attempt to get me to look antisemitic? Seriously?

IDK what it is, I think it's some kinda candy

Sales of new teslas in the EU aren't great ro begin with, and the truck market is strictly professionals. I don' think that it's going to affect the stock price.

I'd be pissed if I'd found out about Ozzy this way, but Hulk Hogan? IDK, it seems appropriate

Some media not showing (sh.itjust.works)

Seeing as I don't see others mention this, I'm gonna try and see if I'm alone in this.

Some pictures and videos won't show for me. It's not that the files have been removed, because I can download the files, but boost won't show them. Sometimes the pictures will load fine, if I choose the original resolution.

I figured that it was because I had an elderly phone, a OnePlus running Android 13, but now that I'm on Motorola running Android 15 I guess it has other reasons.

Anybody else have this issue?

Here's an example of a video that won't load it's NSFW https://lemmynsfw.com/post/27180424 come to think of it, I guess most of the stuff that fails is NSFW

 

I'm looking for suggestions for video analysis software for training.

Preferably something that

  • can handle multiple camera streams at once.
  • can run without internet access or a subscription. (it's for a clubhouse and I don't want to send video of the kids, or other training data, online).
  • doesn't require a PhD in robotics to set up.

The solution I imagine is two or more cameras filming an archer. The software shall record the training, and allow the archer to playback multiple synchronized streams simultaneously while adding tracking points and displaying data like angles, distance and speed.

I can find several different solutions. But before putting all our eggs in a single basket with the FOSS solution kinovea or utilus fairplay, I want to hear what others have tried.

Edit: IDK first interaction this post got was getting down voted, I guess that it's relevance to archery was unclear, so I edited the title to mitigate this.

Suggestions for birds? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works to c/homestead@lemmy.ca
 

I'm looking for suggestions on fowls.

We have a small flock of chickens, about 10, but we have another run with the capacity for about 20 more birds. We also have a small flock of ducks, a single muscowy lady and some indian runners. The ducks are our counter slug squad, but also provide us with some prime eggs as well.

Anyway, we're considering adding some quail as a pesticide in our ant infested greenhouse, and a few geese as lawnmowers for a very soggy part of the garden.

Besides the utility of the birds, we do expect to eat their eggs and come autumn fill up the freezer.

I think we've diversified quite a bit, but what do you think? Something that we should consider keeping as well?

Edit: removed the artifacts of my initial pre-posting edits

Question: bow clicking (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works to c/archery@lemmy.world
 

Question:

  1. What the heck?
  2. Anybody seen this before? Did you manage to solve it? And if so, how?

Situation: During the last part of the draw, a recurve bow clicks occasionally. As in it doesn't happen at every draw. When the click occurs it consistently happens immediately before the actual clicker, causing confusion for the archer, and lost spin wings.

It's not my bow, it belongs to an archer at my club.

Setup: hoyt gmx3 riser, kinetic carbon bamboom #32 limbs, beiter plunger and clicker, and a shibuya ultima arrow rest.

The bow has shot about 15k arrows in the current setup over the last 10 months. Limbs were bought second hand, and has shot considerably more.

Immediately before: The issue arose after aligning the limbs using the horizontal bolts. The bolts were supposedly tightened correctly. Ie I trust the people who did it, as they are way more experienced than me.

Attempted: So far I've tried tightening the counter bolt on the limbs weight adjustment bolt. It was plenty tight. I didn't have a lot of time, so I haven't had time to try anything else. The bow has shot about 100 arrows after my attempt, and it still happened enough to pull the wings off of 3 arrows.

Plan of action:

  • I will double check the horizontal adjustment, and the bolts tightness.
  • I will have a look at the limb pockets, perhaps put a bit of string wax in them.
  • We will try swapping limbs. But I've seen this before and brand new limbs didn't solve it.
 

I have a suggestion for a rule amendment. It goes like this:

When posting pictures of your targets, post as much info about your setup as reasonably possible, ie distance, target diameter, bow type etc. If you're looking for advice, be as specific about your gear as possible.

Reason for my suggestion is that a lot of the time posters will leave out this info, but still be looking for advice, or to show off I guess, when posting a picture of their target. I mean a spread of 50cm at 18m with a compound bow isn't that impressive - not that there's any reason to discourage the archer. But was that a 15cm spread instead, at 70m, with a bare bow, then that's pretty darn impressive.

I like to give constructive feedback, but I know next to nothing about anything but recurve target archery.

Back on December 24th, I wrote the mod of this community, !innkeeper@lemmy.world, suggesting this rule ammendment. It's been two and a half week and I haven't heard back. I also noticed when writing the mod, that the account haven't posted or commented anywhere in a year. So now I'm trying the community instead. I have no idea what we need to do to actually implement the rule, so I'd thought I'd give democracy a shot in the meantime.

 

Question: If you have tried a dodgy dual input hotend, what were your experiences?

Background: As with anyone else who have a single extruder, I've been contemplating upgrading to something with a bit more flexibility. But the idea of getting a whole new printer doesn't appeal as much to my wallet, as it does to my mind :-)

Scouring aliexpress for weird filaments with the mrs - you know, normal Saturday-evening-and-the-kids-are-sleeping couple activities - we fell upon a dual input hotend for creality cr10. It looks an awful lot like the hotend we have, and it comes with either 24v or 12v heater. It's only about 15€ so I might just give it a try, but it's pretty stupid when I don't even have a plan for an extra extruder as well. And I don't know how I would go about wiring that part up on my cr6 at the moment.

In search of a dedicated small engine community I come here.

I have an older husqvarna frontrider with a hydrostatic transmission. While checking the transmission oil I noticed that the fan had broken of most of the blades.

Looking at the transmission cover I can see that it has been grazed by the blades, suggesting that the fan has been pulled sideways.

The oil check was part of a small service, that I was doing since I had to replace both belts going to the cutting deck as well as the belt in the deck. Those belts died when the belt tensioner, in middle of the mower, came loose and dangled beneath the mower.

My questions are these:

  1. WTF?
  2. If the belts have pulled that much in the engine driveshaft, as to do this, what else would you look for before starting the mower again?
  3. Given that it's about 10°C outside, would you run the mower without a fully functioning fan?
  4. Have I missed something? Any wisdom you wish to impart?
 

I'm looking for a source of product status ect. Specifically AAE products at the moment, but preferably more universal than that. Does anyone know of a blog or other source, that congregates this info?

Background (rant) for asking:

At present I'm looking for vanes for my target recurve kid. Got told by the gurus at the range/club, that flex fletch ffp 187 was a good choice, so I ordered ffp 187 no-prep. Just to get an email back from the local shop, that ffp 187 no-prep was discontinued. And they suggested AAE wav, gas pro naca 200 performance (or spin wings, but the coaches don't want us to go for spin wings at the present)

OK, fine, I can see that JVD (my local shop's wholesaler) only carries one color of ffp 187 no-prep now. But then another kid at the club was shooting AAE hybrid shield 185, and all of a sudden those are being discontinued as well. So I've tried ordering AAE wav ... to the be told by the same gurus what wav was probably also discontinued. But I can't find any announcements, just dwindling stock at the wholesaler level.

I don't know much about archery, but I know that I don't want to fletch a dozen shafts, just to then learn that once the clicker-side vanes are used up, then we're SOL.

 

As the title states really. I need to refer to this diverse group of people, who somehow have gotten put in the same box labeled "sexual minorites".

I'm a boring CISHET vanilla white male, so I don't really know. I want to include as many as I can when I refer to "lgbtq+ people". I've been studying various flags, trying to find the one flag I need. But I can't really figure it out.

Is lgbtq+ the preferred term, or what should I use? Is a flag better? I don't want to hurt someone by not including them.

 

If money wasn't an issue, what ILF riser would you get for olympic recurve?

This is both meant as a thought experiment, but also as me picking your brains as a starting point for picking a new riser for someone.

Personally I like the Wiawis integrated dampeners of the ATF-DX or Meta DX. And the insert in the ATF-DX fitting, so you don't ruin the entire riser if you're stringing it wrong, does have some appeal.

But what do you think? Any Gillo fans here? Anyone want to try convincing the rest of us that formula is a superior fitting, and that we should tie the knot with Hoyt?
