While covering the latest Israeli settler attack in the West Bank, Israeli soldiers assaulted my photojournalist @cyrilthps and detained my team. But our 2-hour detention revealed a lot about the motives of these Israeli soldiers: acting in service of the settler movement. W/ @AbeerSalmanCNN

Lichess Alternative Android Clients?

Since lichess is open-source and most people who use chess.com over lichess complain lichess "doesn't look as good" I was wondering if there are third-party clients for lichess who are styled differently/ better? or if not, if there is a reason why there are no other clients.

When we have our cursor in a blackish background, convert the cursor to be white, and when we are in a whitish background, convert to black. We can have the default black cursor with white outline to maximize visibility when in a different color background for now.

This isnt a feature in Windows or Mac either so if Linux does it, Linux would be the first to do it

I'm breaking out the sewing machine again - bit of a long video this time as I chose to share not just making the actual thing, but also my thoughts leading into it, construction and so on.

Spoiler: I am seriously happy with the result & use it, if not every day then definitely several times a week 🥰

Tool Roll video: youtube.com/watch?v=8l21Ma6VIY…

The idea of putting stays in the opening was in no small part inspired by Adam Savage's EDC bag on @tested - seen here: youtube.com/watch?v=AXzurpmc8S…

I think this clip starkly illustrates what I've done to myself... playing since my teens I never learned proper technique for anything - cut to 40 years later & my picking hand is bouncing all over the place like this 🙄

The clip is about a year old, I'm hard at work on this & hope to be sharing any progress I may be able to eke out 😁

I haven't been able to verify if this works with non-water-based paints so proceed with that at your own discretion 😁 for water-based paints, though, this absolutely beats having to try & clear an already-clogged nozzle & throwing it out when that fails...

Yes, I know this doesn't conform to what the Ytubes calls a "short" - I don't care.

OK, so the actual trick I wanted to share was that of using dishsshshsh soap (as I put it in the video) as a kind-of lubricant 😁 Note: Handlebar grips are made of various rubbers & the trick may work differently depending on that - this silicone one, for example, fought me a lot harder than the previous ones made of a rubber material called Kraton... your results may vary.

If you're wondering about the lighting situation in my workshop this time around, I shot this video on a day with an intermittent cloud cover so the sunlight from the window kept coming & going - I basically had to go through the entire video & adjust brightness on a minute-by-minute basis. Given that I actually think it came out OK.

Just a quick one, to show off my latest flea market find...

Contrary to what I muse about in the video, I think this may actually be some sort of Metal Gear swag - one of the texts on it says "Diamond Dogs R&D Artificial Limbs Laboratory", and MG is the only thing that comes up when throwing that into Google. I've never played it so I can't tell if the style fits MG aesthetics or whatever.

Feel free to enlighten us in the comments if you know anything 😀

Yes, I know, they're called surgical gloves. I am also aware of the word "exhale". Anyway, easily put on this kind of gloves with this simple trick - these are something called hydro-polyurethane (dunno what that is but they're both durable & comfortable) but it obviously works just as well for vinyl, latex or whatever.

Yes, I know my Shorts aren't what YT calls shorts. Don't care.

My little apartment workshop got another upgrade: Some better shelves for all my stuff!

By the way, I learned making this video that voice-over is hard, and that I also have a certain verbal tick which I wasn't entirely successful in suppressing while doing this. See if you can spot it.

Bonus link: This is the fairly cheap but serviceable plunge saw I use: einhell.dk/shop/en-dk/te-ps-16… - your results may vary 😀

I recently decided to upgrade some of those practical implements that you carry with you to be ready for everything, scout style - so (spoilers) I acquired a 5.11 Tactical 3DP pocket knife and a Ledlenser P2R Core compact flashlight. Join me for the unboxing 😀

I broke my unusual & very beautiful porcelain pepper grinder - can I fix it? Tune in to find out...

You know those little sticky rubber things you stick on stuff so it doesn't slip, or as a bumper? Here's how I sometimes sneak my way to my own, tiny ones...

Yes, I know my Shorts aren't what YT calls shorts. Don't care.

When I made my tool roll - youtube.com/watch?v=8l21Ma6VIY… - the vid got a bit long and I promised to get back to the part about waxing the fabric to make it more resilient.

One should always keep one's promises 😀
