The Music of the Ainur is a pathway to many abilities which some deem to be… unnatural.

Absolutely. When you're making a book cover, a pretty typical method is to take book board (chipboard-like material, similar to the back cover of notebooks) and glue it on book cloth or paper. Then you fold over edges of the cloth/paper. You don't need to cover the inside because that's where the actual pages of the book will be, but you need some overlap (e.g. 25mm).

But the corner is a bit tricky. If you don't trim at all, you have an extra triangle of folded paper that gets in the way. If you cut it off too close to the book board, you will see the board peeking through. So you want to cut the corner off with a little gap. And if you get the angle wrong, the fold doesn't look quite right. This jig gives both spacing and angle, and it has an added bonus of the notches to let you mark your cuts for the fold over on each side.

The first 30 seconds of this video illustrate it pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4IzpDqbHqU

 

There's a few 3D printable corner cut jigs out there. I designed my own for three main reasons:

  1. There's a little ruler on the side to mark the width of the fold-over section of the cloth
  2. It's parametric (using OpenSCAD), so you can customize various sizes (spacing from corner, various thicknesses, size of ruler, etc.)
  3. I like to model stuff myself because it's fun.

Karl Urban is also great

Nice, I'll take a look. How is the mobile experience?

[–] d13@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah, no problem.

This is my first attempt at posting a comment with pictures, but hopefully these show up:

[–] d13@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

Yes. When I tried it, it was not very stable and the shortcuts didn't really work on mobile. But I know a lot has changed, so I've been meaning to go back and give it another shot.

Backlinking is when you link to a page, it links back.

For example, if I have a daily journal, I can say Fixed a problem with my [[Raspberry Pi]] setup... and then a few weeks later I can say Found a new use for [[Raspberry Pi]]..., etc.

Now when I go to the Raspberry Pi page, it shows me a list of times I've linked to the page and the context.

I use this all the time with Logseq, but I find Logseq pretty unpolished, infrequently updated, etc., so I'm always on the lookout for something nicer.

I'm getting a Cloudflare error trying to access your demo site.

Also, do you support back linking? That's a feature that's very important to me.

[–] d13@programming.dev 5 points 3 months ago

I finally got around to setting up my internal services with TLS. It was surprisingly easy with a Caddy docker image supporting Cloudflare DNS challenge.

I did this because various services I use are starting to require https.

Now everything is on a custom domain, https, and I can access it through Tailscale as usual.

This is my favorite of the thread.

You can even call one Host, haha.

Strange New Worlds is good, at least S1 (haven't watched S2 yet)

This is 3mm cast acrylic.

The design started with CardBox from Boxes.py

I made a few modifications, such as improving the lid design and adding holes to make it easier to access cards.
