@alice I've only gotten professional bleaching so I can't speak to discounter products, but ultimately, hydrogen peroxide is aggressive no matter where it's from. Don't know how much quality matters.I'd recommend dilution down as far as possible. I get 6% bleach for a very dark brown natural color to light yellow for dyeing over. If you're naturally blonde, like, 2-3% or something might be all you need.Also, what's your hair care? That's the biggest thing for nice, dyed hair in my experience

@omar@bsd.cafe hi! I'm not sure if I qualify as a long-term user, I've been using it maybe 4-5 years now. But regardless; I've disabled public relays usage on my setup as I only want to have it exposed in my home network and over my VPN anyway (which is Tailscale for convenience these days, but was a self-hosted Wireguard thing before that).I've never actually noticed any issues with my setup, so long as whatever device I'm using is able to talk to my home server (which runs Syncthing in a docker container), it's been able to sync everything just fine.I must admit I've never used it on Android though, mostly because I like to keep my phones as "dumb" as I can make/keep them.For reference, I use it for a variety of documents, screenshots I make on my computers get sent there too (~/Pictures/Screenshots is a symlink to a directory in my Syncthing directory), and even have a few Flatpak-installed application configuration files/directories in there (again, symlinked from where these apps expect them to be).Darktable is one such app, it's just so nice to be able to pick up where I left off with my full library on any of my computers. The actual photos themselves are accessed through an NFS share from my home server, but Darktable's settings and library database and related files are kept in-sync with Syncthing.I don't remember ever having a merge/sync conflict, it's just been rock solid for me.I use the "Syncthingy" flatpak app on all my computers, as it's been working fine for my needs all this time, even when I was using Fedora Silverblue (Atomic Desktop) and tried to layer as few system packages as possible. I'm sure without that restriction Syncthing proper would be equally fine.I hope this helps!

@sieri ye makes sense. It's a very linear increase all along april, let's see how that continues in May. But it looks more like people are just picking it up based on some recommendation. Pretty cool!

@mayzbeen enjoying Airbag. An Argentinian punk rock band. No screaming and the beat is energetic (they do have some ballads alongside the energetic ones). Spanish. Owl City has some great tracks. English. Major Lazer has great electronica upbeat beats.Lindsey Stirling with her upbeat edm violin playing. Royksopp is pretty upbeat and energetic. Sing in English.Huh, just realized most my music is either metal or has angry or sad vibes. I can't think of any others... lol

@brianb @GetzlerChem If you're looking for chem & art examples (not an artist in residence) @kristinHenry is a great source, a lot of her stuff is based on iterations of chemical ideas (some of how she generates patterns might be more applicable to your programming class than your chemistry one however).

@glitchcake I need(ed) help learning what the condition modifiers are for and how to find the names of the destination and source directories. That's what I meant by "steps". I'm not typically navigating my files from the command console.Turns out, I also need to learn how to force a mount.It reassuing to see rsync being the consistent suggestion in replies. Thank you for that.

@djwfyi someone mentioned Design Patterns (a.k.a. "gang of four"). Has my vote too, but note that it might not be immediately useful. I needed a few years (2-3) of experience as a professional dev, before it's ideas started to become useful.

@keefeglise If it’s DHCP assigned, then yes it can change. The DHCP server will tend to reassign the same IP, but it’s not guaranteed unless you explicitly configure a dedicated IP address for that client.

@OliviaVespera@spacey.space not solarpunk, but you might be interested in social.translunar.academy

@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchangeSelf hosted wordpress or wafrn in the future

@amoroso Yeah I always rebind Super to show all windows, and Super+Space to show the main menu

@charette Thank you for the suggestion. I’ve implemented an open guest WIFI on the same SSID with time restrictions. We’ll see how it goes! 😆

@ayo Strands?

⚠️ PLEASE BOOST⚠️ ---TLDR:the project is looking to 3D print some cases for the SBC it supports.willing to pay.also looking to design a better case.---as you may already know, the people's permacomputer project mainly targets Stefan's BASIC for its code porting needs:https://github.com/slviajero/tinybasicthe project is based on the Arduino core. it can be loaded onto a self-contained single-board computer called the TTGO VGA32:https://lilygo.cc/products/fabgl-vga32https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33041602035.htmlthis board is based on the ESP32 microcontroller. it supports PS2 mice and keyboards, as well as micro SD card access. Stefan's BASIC also makes use of the WiFi module on the board, via MQTT.the project ported a text editor from 1977 to this board:https://git.sr.ht/~vidak/peoples-permacomputer/tree/master/item/basiclang/text-editors/transcribed/edit/edit-conv.basthere are 3D printed case models for this board:https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=ttgo+vga32---the project is interested in commissioning a run of cases. we are hoping to begin stocking and distributing TTGO VGA32 boards.is anyone available to 3D print some cases for this microcontroller board?further: is anyone available to design a different case to those linked above?happy to receive quotes.#3dprinting #retrocomputing #askfedi

@bkuhn Well, it's the only Emacs Mastodon client I know, so I guess it's no contest, but it is very good, I like it a lot.

Question for mastodon: What is this white string material in a hairdryer actually made of? I'm guessing it's not a natural fabric or one of the usual synthetics or it would immediately melt/catch fire when turned on. It can't be anything that conducts heat or electricity. I have read it may be Mica, but that seems to refer to the structural plates within the dryer, and not the support for the heating element itself.#askFedi #engineering

@jbz I'm here before it gets (possibly) removed.

@aetataureate 🤗

@Genderqueerwolf ooh yes any suggestions very welcome (if you have time/energy! we might have european alternatives and/or they might be happy/naturalised here too.we're back into way too warm days again after a bit of a respite ... it's hardly rained for months either, so i suspect we'll have restrictions in place before too long as well. i'm definitely looking at plants that don't mind dryness (especially given we're south facing with full sun). unfortunately, it all worsened my regularly dislocating thumb and fragile wrists/shoulders, which is not ideal given my day job involves intensive hand use. and i'm allergic to my own sweat, sigh, so i'm still covered in eczema. but at least i can sit down now without crying (that took 5 days). so, small mercies! 😂 (i really, really need medical care, but although i have a list of diagnoses a mile long, i live in france 🙄)i hope you stay warm enough and that you're feeling ok. hooray for the sand cherries! (our dwarf cherry that we planted last year has its first few actual cherries coming 🥹. the nanking cherry got the weird, dead tips again that it had last year, but we've pruned those off and it looks ok otherwise ... lots of wee cherries there too, so hopefully they'll mature ...)🍒!
