  • If there’s anarchists on Hexbear and none of them speak against AES, it’s because they know not to mention it.

    I guess I could see some anarchists support vague nonsense that sounds similar to an ML. Like having even less sympathy for an openly capitalist regime than ones that are or purport to be socialist. But they’re obviously not anarchists if they genuinely support some states.







  • It doesn’t actually matter too much. They use mostly our data, so legally I think it’s ODBL too, and we can import anything genuinely useful they do.

    Overture is a separate project so they can add stuff OSM doesn’t want like data generated from imagery that is not checked by people. That might make Overture better in areas where osm data is sparse. They can also restrict other things only import tags they like, or merge some tags that mean similar things to make it easier for data consumers.




  • If it’s what I think it is, cactus leather is more polyurethane than prickly pear. I don’t really mind there being plastic in it, like as a glue or binder, but if it’s not mostly plants it shouldn’t be marketed like it is.

    The leather from the article is all mushroom but a terrible material for now.

    There’s a lot more variation in fake leathers than in the real stuff, whether it’s plants or petroleum. Anecdotal and not a one to one comparison, but I’ve had (plastic) vegan boots last a bit longer than the leather ones before it. My cork wallet was also better than cheap leather.



  • That’s a feature supporters of imperial thinks it has. Even if imperial/some special third option is better for guessing, the difference has to be big enough that it’s worth the hassle of having multiple systems or converting everyone again. If it’s not worth having two systems but it is worth converting everything , then you still have to keep or prove that it’s worth losing the conveniences of metric like 1 km = 1000 m , 1 L of water weighing 1 kg , water freezing and boiling at 0 and 100 °C


  • Yes, I’m more of a novice, but have already tried multiple pattern systems as well. An expensive digital one with loads of measurements superficially similar to this. Also Luterloh system with radial coordinates, but that just sizes you from one measurement.

    Luterloh gave me an oddly sloped buttseam. I always have to lengthen sleeves, the custom sized does do that for me, but I also still had to adjust other stuff. Different from a commercial pattern but do still have to do some adjusting.

    As for the printing, it’s the same as every other digital pattern. You either tape a whole bunch of A4 or Letter sized paper, or print in A1 or A0 roll. Freesewing is actually good at this, you can rearrange the pieces to fit whatever paper you will print on before saving as pdf.

    It’s going to have some metadata to that effect yes, like a file index or number of parts or total extracted file size. I don’t know the details, I’ve used them I haven’t read the spec. rar is Rarlab’s proprietary format so there might not even be a public spec.
    They’re normally all the same size except for the last part, so it’s not that file 1 is just an index.
