Yesterday I got for myself the #book "The Ecology of Freedom" (a Spanish translation, I quite liked this particular edition ).

I am knitting Earthly in Patons Linen (cotton, linen, viscose) and it’s my first time working with linen.
I was told, and everything I’m reading, and watching on YouTube emphasizes the importance of blocking my linen swatches. I hand washed in warm water with agitation, and am tumble drying now. After it’s dry, I’ll machine wash and dry the swatches like my son will when he’s living with the finished sweater. The swatches have become very soft, have grown a bit in length, but so far the width seems stable. Will see how second blocking goes. It’s going to be a very nice sweater if I can get the sizing right. Using the EZ PZ Gauge Ruler to measure, and the stitches were better defined after the first blocking.
Planning to make an XL (size 46” chest) depending on what happens with the swatches, since according to Google, yarn can be machine washed and tumbled dry, it may shrink up to 10%, (which would make the XL a 43.2” fit) BUT I had a bamboo ribbon yarn top shrink to child size in my washer (still sad about that, the pre wash size was perfect!) so I’m gun shy. RIP Coachella tank in Tahki Yarns Bali ribbon. I’d use that yarn again, but definitely wet block, and handwash (it got accidentally thrown into the washing machine)

Des chimpanzés ont été observés en train de partager des fruits contenant de l'alcool - pas dans des quantités suffisantes pour s'enivrer, mais un peu comme l'effet d'une bière.

Happy , today I deployed a #Forgejo instance to manage my private code projects. I won't be using #Github anymore for my stuff, only to contribute to 3rd party projects.
I still have some pending work to configure the CI workers, but I'll leave that for next week.
Along the way I've learnt some stuff about #OpenTofu and networking. Enough to know that I still prefer to be on the dev side of the "devops" .

Les séquences complètes du génome de plus de 2 700 Brésiliens, récemment produites, apportent de nouvelles preuves de la violence et de l'exploitation des populations indigènes et d'origine africaine.
Par exemple, la grande majorité des lignées du chromosome Y (masculin) sont d'origine européenne (71 %), tandis que la majorité des lignées mitochondriales (féminines) sont d'origine africaine (42 %) ou indigène (35 %). (1/2)
