Pretty dystopic that you post this quote, because it is doctored to include catholics. Niemöller’s wife explicitly stated that he never included them in his poem. Source: https://martin-niemoeller-stiftung.de/martin-niemoeller/was-sagte-niemoeller-wirklich

Martin Niemöllers zweite Frau (seit 1971), Sibylle von Sell  schreibt dazu am 23.4.2000 in h-holocaust https://www.h-net.org/~holoweb/ :.“ The trouble with Martin Niemoeller’s „famous quotation“ is that he never wrote it down – which enabled  so many hitchhikers  over the years to „put themselves on the waggon“. In his  „Confession of Guilt“  (as he called it himself: Schuldbekenntnis in German) the Communists came first, then the Trade Unionists and then the Socialists and then the Jews. NO ONE ELSE.”

So they’re fighting the war on climate change… on the side of climate change?

Yeah, that’s the one I was thinking about. I followed him on Twitter when it still existed, but haven’t seen anything of him since I left.

but also fuck Ben Garrisons 8,500 labels on his political cartoons

Wat. It’s Ben Garrison. That’s his thing. He makes fun of excessively labeled political cartoons by doing it over-the-top. He also has a sad Statue of Liberty in every comic.

Okay, I was completely lost.

That’s still incredibly cheap compared to european gas prices. Here in Germany it’s (converted to Freedom Units) around US$8/Gallon.

It’s called displacement aggression The sportsball fan identifies with his team to the point that it feels like he lost the game himself. Since he can’t express his frustration and subsequent aggression towards the opposing team (since he is in front of his TV several 100km away), he expresses it towards the next best thing that is weaker and accessible, e.g. furniture, walls, wife and kids…

Yes, and even the bridge is amaranth!

I just used standard alcohol-based varnish. Tbh I when I started this build, I didn’t even realise it would do that. 😅

Those are standard (albeit fancy) “french eye” tuning pegs from Thomann Germany. The endpin is in the same style. Maybe for the next instrument I will try to make them myself.

I wish. Lutes are an entirely different beast. Definitely on my bucket list, though.

So far I just use a baroque bow. I work on a cherry bow from time to time, but it’s quite difficult.

And here is a Quick vocaroo where I play a few notes on each string.

That’s probably because they’re closely related. Every region in Europe has their own variation of a small, pear-shaped, three-stringed instrument. There’s the Russian gudok, Bulgarian gadulka, Spanish rabel, and so on…

I think the masked-off area is easy to spot:

The body got an alcohol-varnish and the fingerboard is oiled. Worked pretty well.

I’m now doing the hide glue method. I did a test piece and oil doesn’t seem to penetrate the hide glue at all.

How does this work with Apple - will the new Iphone be available as soon as it’s announced? (I’m considering switching from Android)

Linux Mint is what you’re looking for.

This type of guide would wear out too fast, I think. It would also take away from the drill length, which I need to drill relatively deep holes (high depth to Diameter ratio).
