In the aftermath of the dust storm we had last night, one of the relays over in the lake nearby me, went down. I drove by this morning to take a look at it and saw that the service line pole was ganked out of the house and it's laying on top of an HVAC unit that's only being held by one bracket. Our Wi-Fi access point was attached to that service pole. So now I need to replace the AP because I don't know if something happened to the PCB board inside and I also need to check the line. Fun.

Well this is some fucking sad news... An Japanese music artist, just passed away recently at the age of 28... damn... she was just 4 years younger than me. She was one of few japanese singers for anime, that I really enjoyed cause you can feel the emotion in her work. You don't really even need to translate her work to feel it. Her name was Sayuri and the song that I liked is form an anime called Erased.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sayuri_(musician)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_pdEtZS08AF

@davidrevoy I'm glad you were able to figure things out. It sucks when you try to do something new and you come to realize that you were basically doing the same thing but just slapping new lipstick on.At least you could look at it from this way. What you've been doing has been working. Just keeping it simple, and subverting our expectations is probably what I expect from your world of Pepper and Carrot regardless.Either way, I still look forward to what you have in the store for us.

@davidrevoy For the AI side, I'm okay with using it for marketing purposes, but not respecting the CC licensing is Atrous. You should do what you can to get them to obey or ask the @eff guys to help you send the correct legal documents to at least get them to follow the CC liscense.With that said, I would purchase to verify the quality. Then launch your own limited run T-Shirt and donate the proceeds to a foundation if you don't want to profit from it. So in my eyes I see an opportunity.

I'll scan everything when the month is over.I'm open to hearing ways I can improve and any books and media suggestions will be appreciated.#inktober2024 #mastoart #backpack #inktober #ink #sketchbook #fediart #art

Okay here is my Day 5 submission for #inktober2024. To be honest, I wasn't really feeling this prompt so I basically drew what I normally see through my #binoculars which are towers. I work for a small local ISP and we use dishes for "line of sight Wireless". So I use my binoculars for aiming the dishes in. Though being lazy this time, I just showed one eye. 😅Though to challenge myself, this one was all pen and no pencil. So many mistakes were made.#inktober #art #mastoart #fediart #ink

Day 3 submission of 2024 Inktober. I forgot this little character of mine had black hair so I had to use the brush marker a lot to fill in. I'm impressed of my micron pens cause they were in storage for a couple of years and they still flow. Good pens.I'll have to fix a few thing digitally later, but I'm proud that I'm sticking to it this long. Usually give up after a couple of days.Anyways onwards to day 4!#inktober2024 #mastoart #boots #inktober #sketchbook #fediart #ink #art

Here is my day two Submission for Inktober. At one of conventions my friends and I attended we came across these worlds in a glass bottle stickers. So I thought this would be a great drawing for "Discover". Took me a bit cause I was being a perfectionist and that probably why I'm struggling. I have this idea in my head, but it's hard to render out and I just give up... Need to just let the pen do the work.#inktober2024 #mastoart #discover #inktober #sketchbook #ink #fediart #art

Okay I'm a day late, but here is my Day 4 submission for #Inktober2024. The theme is #Exotic and I decided to draw #Teto from "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind".I took what I learned so far and applied to this one. I did my normal #sketch and then used my smallest pen to #ink the first layer. Then after erasing the sketch, use the other sizes to add texture. So key take away from inking is don't be afraid to layer it up.On to catch up with Day 5!#inktober #mastoart #fediart #art

@davidrevoy okay figured out the Nostr Profile thing. I guess there is a service called mostr.pub that is a bridge between the fediverse and nostr. So essentially, you do have a nostr profile that completely mirrors your profile including beyond what you've set your timeline retention on Mastodon. Just thought you should know and that the profile you followed was my Nostr Profile too. I don't know if you can claim the nostr profile or not. I've asked but was not given an answer.

I have this odd hobby of collecting stickers from conventions and comic book stores and turning them into magnets. I even have a stack of them that I will just give away at cons if anyone asks. I just find it therapeutic. Though I'm going to need to get a new Whiteboard soon... I wonder if I would get enough sats to get another one? 🙃Idk, what hobby that you find odd, but enjoy doing?

@bibipov @odysseywestra @davidrevoy Yeah it took me a bit to realize that. Federation takes a bit to propigate.

@davidrevoy Gosh, I remember a few years back, we had a two week period where it fluctuated between 32-38°C, but that hot for us up in the Pacific Northwest of the States. A lake nearby that was usually cold all year never felt so good. We would litterly jump in all clothed and get out and an hour later, we were dryed out. I know it could be worse. For example In Arizona, you could technically fry an egg on the street down there with just the sun alone.

@davidrevoy The irony is that there are so many uses for lemons it is scary.

@davidrevoy I will probably move over to librepay since you are the only creator I support on Patreon. I also like the idea of you getting my full support instead of partial payment.I'm surprised that you didn't do month to month sooner cause of your new web comic. It's always daunting having to go from freelance, to your own thing, but if you have to step away for a bit due to burnout, don't be afraid to take a break. I'll still support you regardless.
