It's out!!
Well, a draft, at least. It took way longer than it should have to scrape up the information.
The big comparison of #Emacs #email clients, where I talk a bit about configuring MUA's such as:
#gnus
#rmail
#viewmail
#mhe
#mew
#wanderlust
#notmuch
#mu4e
and also add little notes & ideas about them.
The whole article is in sections; you're supposed to hop around to whatever you're into.
It'll probably take another week before it's good enough to be considered "done", but I'm proud enough that I wanted to push it out a bit early.

First power-on today for the #voron build (calibrating voltages).
Things didn't explode, so that is a good thing I guess.
(oh, and voltages were all good too)
Wiring up the afterburner toolhead on the #voron
Not sure i am a fan of the molex microfit crimps. They're rather sensitive for wire thickness, which is why I am rewiring the fans. Could also just be the lack of my crimping skills obviously.

Totally valid questions by EU parliamentarian @echo_pbreyer to the EU Commission:
Why don't you communicate to citizens in the #Fediverse?

#FreeCAD 0.19 is finally officially out! Grab your copy at https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases or read the releases notes at https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Release_notes_0.19
Electronics bay shuffling is done and ready for wiring.
Started final assembly of the #voron electronics bay
Heated buildplate for the #voron is basically ready for assembly. It is a sandwich of magnetic foil, 3M486 tape, casted aluminium plate, 3M tape again and a heating element.
For printing a spring steel plate with a pei foil glued to it is placed on the magnetic top surface.
Working on wire routing and terminal block placement for the #voron today.
Kudos to phoenix contact on providing excellent cad files for all their parts.
Shuffling electronics around in the #voron to find a practical setup. Considering adding ducts and terminal blocks to make it profi looking.
While building the #voron, my current printer has the job of providing me with all the storage boxes for the parts to use.
As the #voron printer design is gpl licensed, you get to play around with every part of it, including the design. This is very useful while (re-)building the printer.
Here's a screenshot from #freecad from what I am trying to build.
#3dprinting
Spent the better part of last week building the mechanical part of a Voron 2.4 3d printer, almost ready to start wiring it.

@Erik @whiskeysailor
It won't be a surprise, but I honestly believe we'd have a better world if #Bitcoin were to get a chance to replace part of these industries. And given the immense power these industries have over our policy makers, I don't see any other way to get rid of them. Bitcoin is unstoppable, it is 100% neutral and honest; it has no opinion that can be corrupted by wealth and power.
Anyone with internet can use it. Anyone with electricity can mine it. No permission required.
