Coming from discuss.tchncs.de, I’d like to create a non-Lemmy profile in case things went wrong there. PieFed seems nice.

    My cat also has a very healthy bedtime, but I’m a night owl. So I’ll turn the lights off after 10pm, light up small LED candles, let my cat sleep on my lap, and try not moving too much. After sometime I’ll have to wake her up, then we go cuddling together under the duvet. She’ll get up early without waking me up. The best friend I ever have.






  • I’m trying to sort them by languages first, then by genres. But I’m terribly at organizing, and not having enough space, many are mixed up. Also, I wish I have the space for more than one real shelf. Half of my books are in boxes.

    Like, Sci-Fi in my native language should be in the back roll of the shelf, but some of them are here and there. Non-fictions should be in the front and lower roll of the shelf, but other languages are in boxes, bedside, and desktop shelf, so basically everywhere… And books by one author but in different translations are stored in different places, it’s slightly frustrating. Now I thought about it, maybe I shouldn’t separate them by languages.


  • I have several swords. Some are light and nimble, at least for an adult, like my Messers are all around 800g, 90cm-ish in length, with point of balance at around 11-13cm. I think a child should have no problem wielding them if they do it with care. Then there is a 170cm Zweihänder, weighted about 3kg, PoB at 11cm. I have no doubt a child would be able to lift it, but to use it, it would be very hard. If she can use that adult-size-looking-sword in the picture then she definitely earned it. ;)

    Luckily my parents acknowledged it long ago. And they have always been careful to not be wasteful. Public transportations, travel less and only by trains, less heating/cooling, recycle, collect rain water. They’ve done enough and sadly, there’s little else average people can do.



  • I still like Skallagrim. He still gave helpful reviews about blacksmiths and historical weapons that I’m interested in. And IMO, his channel was always more entertainment than scholarship. But HEMA is a martial art that develops slowly, way slower than YouTube algorithm’s demand. There are not many new stuffs to talk about. If there has to be fillers to get his channel going, I’m okay with that.

    Edit: Back to the topic. There are not many channels that I care about degraded to the point that I can’t bare. What makes me a little sad is that from time to time, channels stop publishing videos. Especially after Covid, people found better things to do, so they hibernated their YouTube channels.
