The History of Imperial Units of Measurements

Introduction

Look. Am I horrendously attached to imperial units? No, not really. I like them, I grew up with them, but fundimentally I don’t think I’d pine for inches over centimeters, valuing the simplicity of the foot over the fact that 1/3 of a meter is 333.3333333333… oh you get the point, centimeters.

Wurm Online Beverages Levelling Guide

Because this skill really needs it.

I’ve already made this post, but I feel a need to remake it with slightly better organization.

Emacs Tutorial - Part 1

Why Emacs?

Skip the preamble, please

I chose to go with Emacs because I watched a video where someone made it sound like it ruined their life. I wish I was joking, but here’s the link. After messing around with it for about almost a year now, I feel comfortable enough with it to actually make a few posts about actually using it from the perspective of a new user.

The Modern Issue with Free Software

Note: I love free software, and this is an issue with how a lot of how modern tech runs more than an issue with free software directly.

Building a Mechanical Keyboard

So I made a keyboard

If y’all follow me on the fediverse, you’ll have seen a couple of posts I made about making a split keyboard. It’s been finished, as shown in this image:

Wurm Recipes List

674/1465

Foreward

  • This page is going through a restructure because tables are just… so bad for this format xD It will be formatted as a list of recipes with sub-lists of ingredients, this will just take time.
  • I did initially make all recipes in table format. The table format works very well for things like dough, it works less well for most container-based recipes though. As a compromise I’ll use tbales for the recipe types where legibility isn’t sacrificed, and list format for everything else.
  • If you see (+X) after the name of the item, and it’s in the “Optional” category, it means it adds that much to the difficulty if added
  • The number in parentheses following the name of the recipe is the base difficulty, which may be modified by optional ingredients.
  • If you’re wondering why some items say raw and some don’t, ask wurmdev, this is their info, I’m just copying it for now. I’ll reformat it so it makes more sense later on
  • All percentages are how much of a liquid you should put (by weight) in comparison to solids.
  • This is technically a draft, but I’m releasing it now because I don’t wanna have to write close to a thousand recipes before I release it.
  • The number above the foreward isn’t how many recipes I’ve written, or how many there are. It’s which recipe I’m on from the game’s code, which isn’t consistent with how they number the recipes.
  • An eventual plan I have is to link the recipes together so that it’ll be easy to see what you need to do to make a recipe. For now that creates problems with ox-hugo exporting my entire blog, so I’ll be working on that once I’m done with the full list.
  • “XXX%r” is the ratio of that particular liquid to all solids present in the recipe
  • XXX%l means how much of the liquid’s weight will be lost. Unless otherwise stated, loss can be assumed to be 0%,
