Sto cercando di scoprire cosa dava alla "neve finta" che si usava per i presepi negli anni '70 quell'odore particolare (a proposito, se qualcuno lo sa, me lo dica chΓ© lo apprezzo).

Ho invece scoperto che o non so io come si scrive "propellente" o non lo sa la maggioranza degli italiani.
Nessuna delle due ipotesi mi rende felice.

I have two "house"/montessori beds for children that I bought 3 years ago or so that I wanted to sell but it turns out nobody on Kleinanzeigen wants non-IKEA furniture, so I looked at giving them away instead and I'm happy (?) to report that there are apparently no more refugees or otherwise disadvantaged families in Berlin.

The beds in question (they're obviously currently disassembled)

I would like to get two 10x10x200cm wooden beams and cut them diagonally to get four very long wedges that I can use to raise my mattress base.

Is that doable or insane? And if doable, and if you're in
#Berlin or #Germany, is it something I can ask Bauhaus or the like to do for me (in which case, how do you say it in German?)

I'm trying to buy polycone (LDPE)-sealed caps for my DIY fragrance hobby.
Any number of results from China, UK and US, mostly one-click purchase.

Butr I want them from DE (or EU), don't I?

So far I found at least five different, unreliable names for the product., and the websites are:
- old school catalogue ones with PDF and, I assume, fax ordering process
- min 1000+ pieces
- min 100+ € order
- no photos
- 404
- 2€ per cap (10x regular price)
- 10€+ shipping costs

We're going very well.

Today, for the first time, I saw a "don't ask again" option related to Gemini in google meet.
Obviously I clicked it immediately, without thinking of taking a screenshot to immortalize the moment.

Well, never mind, I'll take it the next time.

On Nov 3rd I saved a LibreOffice Calc as CSV.

Then I kept on modifying and saving it for two weeks.

Today it crashed, and it turns out it never saved
anything to the .ods.

I am... unhappy.

It turns out "my" shirt design was stolen and used by some US assholes who now sell a Rob Anybody t-shirt.
I can't do anything about that, except giving everybody the design for free - if it has to be out there, nobody should profit from it.
If you end up using it, please PLEASE donate to one of Pratchett's favorite charities or at least to somebody in need.
And add a
#GNUTerryPratchett line somewhere, maybe?
