2nd until 6th of Jun 2025 Fri Jun 6 2025, 11:00:48 pm CET OK, so yesterday I was planning to do a small little update for the post of the day. I wanted to write something about a 3D printing project that started that evening, how it came about and within about an hour I was found a fitting model, modified it and was already printing it. That was yesterday, life came in between (we had a cosy dinner These are always so nice... and picked up J in Antwerp) and I never got around to writing the post. So here we are, a day later, and I am giving it another shot. Hopefully I will be able to finish it today. Another cool thing is that today is theNational Day of Sweden Learn more about the National Day of Sweden..So, happy National Day to all my Swedish friends! So, about the 3D printing project. H. requested something to be printed This is the 3D printing project I worked on for the birthday surprise. Guess what it is... as a surprise to the upcoming birthday of my brother in-law. For obvious reasons, I can not share too many details about it, but the cool thing yesterday was how fast it all went yesterday. That from the request until I was printing only took about half an hour. I had a look at Printables This is the original STL from Printables. and found a model that I thought would be fitting. For the last couple of days, even longer for some of it, I have been trying out some stuff - Qutebrowser and the Linux window managers DWM and i3. A bit of a warning here, this is a bit of a geeky post, so if you are not into that kind of stuff, you might want to skip the next couple of paragraphs... DWM (Dynamic Window Manager) is a lightweight and efficient window manager for the X11 display server, designed for simplicity and minimalism.
