    @TazPoltorak @Bfordham some toy machines cheat by only being able to make a chain stitch instead of the lockstitch used by modern¹ machines: those aren't really sewing machines, they can't be used to follow instructions designed for sewing machines and I'd recommend staying away from them even as a “starting” machine, because they really aren't one.the main issue being that the chain stitch unravels, and using it to make functional garments will require a lot more handsewing and different techniques that those used today.as the first sewing machine ever built, they were time saver when sewing meters and meters of ruffles on a 1850s dress, when you were used to sew 1840s dresses by hand, but really, sewing machine technology has moved on :)¹ i.e. since the second half of the 19th century :D

    I'm looking at the architecture of things like Fedora Silverblue, NixOS, and the Steam Deck.The concept of an immutable root filesystem with atomic updates seems like the technically correct way to do an OS. No more dependency hell, no more breaking the system with a bad sudo command. But the muscle memory of apt-get install / dnf install is hard to break. Containerizing everything (flatpak/distrobox) feels like a friction point for quick tasks.For those who daily drive an immutable distro: Was the learning curve worth the stability? Or is it still too much friction for a machine? 🤔#askfedi #linux #fedora #steam #steamdeck #NixOS #foss #opensource #programming #sysadmin

    @juliette My step mom used to teach middle school deaf cohort in a public school system alongside other teachers with hearing challenges, though she herself was hearing.The easiest answer is to write stuff down if it's important, and the second answer nobody wants is to speak more succinctly or come to terms with the fact that even hearing people are bad at paying attention. Listening takes energy, more energy with an obstacle, and while asking if you can accommodate is commendable (continues)
