Ah... So that's where the fishy fishy fishy fish went!

@carlos@perceptiveconstructs.comGhost in the friendly and interactive shell (fish):
I removed a `set -x VARNAME ...` line from my fish config.
Spawning a new shell still had that variable.
I ran `set -e VARNAME`. For the current shell, it's gone.
Spawning a new shell again, I got it back. What..?
Okay, so I closed _all the fish instances_.
And the damn env var came back *again*!?!
Looks like that's because it's my login shell.
A fresh login session no longer had it.

I wrote a story. It starts:
He woke up, looking forward to finally fishing. He’s retired, even though he feels like he could keep doing the work, and now, finally, he has the chance to go out on his boat, with a beer and his rod to catch something. Maybe if he catches enough he can fill the whole freezer set up in the basement. Fresh frozen fish for months.
The rest of it:

Had planned to fit it in a real fish can,
but decided would be better, and simpler, to print the can too and make it bigger.
After some refinement in blender, I printed it on My A1 mini.
(had a few problems on the guitar supports)
I fit tested the parts
Then sanded, repared, replaced parts, broked parts, moaning, re-repaired, re-sanded...
it is made of 5 part :
-Fish can base
-can lid
-6 monsters
-crab clamp with keyboard

A thread about a Christmas gift I did for (one of) my brother.
It's a 3d modeled, 3d printed sculpture, composed of 6 monsters in a mackerel fish can.
why 6 ? because our mother used to call him "6 monstres, Š lui tout seul" (six Monsters, all by himself)
In french "six monstres" sound a bit like "Simon".
so:
-I started by a quick sketch to try to lay out what I had in mind.
-Then I modeled it in Gravity Sketch (a VR…
Black shiny mollies and bright colored guppies,
Shy little angels as gentle as puppies,
Swimming and diving with scarcely a swish,
They were just some of my tropical fish.
Then I got mantas that sting in the water,
Deadly piranhas that itch for a slaughter,
Savage male betas that bite with a squish,
Now I have many less tropical fish.
If you think that
Fish are peaceful
That's an empty wish.
Just dump them together
And le…

The greyhounds at the WGW kennels still need their walks even on Christmas day so we've been open as usual for volunteer walkers, and got a good turnout. Every hound managed a walk in the winter sunshine.
Not only that though: over the last few days our volunteers have cooked and delivered more than 25 whole chickens, as well as sausages, vegetables and fish, so that the hounds could enjoy a special Christmas meal today too!
