@[email protected], Can you briefly explain the Matariki star cluster significance, as well as the social aspects of the holiday please?

Hiya, yes it’s a big area and only a few Lemmy’ists. Many years ago, there was a sub at "the other place" named Bay of Islands. Tried to contact the owner/mod to take it over, but never had any reply. Ah well.

Been to the doctors and was told my HbA1c lab result was 36.0 (5.44%), so not a bad prior estimation on my part.

Built a goods wagon from a wooden whiskey bottle box, had to use it somehow!!

Used Plasticard strips for the framing, and added bogies and couplings. The smaller freight wagons are from kits.

Here’s a Brandbright coach kit I built. Took some time but looks nice with passengers inside.

When I tried it again several hours later, it posted instantly.

I should’ve replied here to let you know, sorry about that.

I did wonder that. I guess this weekends Reddit app stop will up the Lemmy user count.

I’ll try again, thanks ….

Just tried to post a new thread, but it never gets posted. Have tried using the Memmy app, also web browser. Trying a comment here to see if that works.

Edit: Well yes, that worked. Will try a new post again.

Edit 2: I still can’t create a new post, it just sits there, never completing.

My natto comes out much like yours, a bit thin on the strings but tasty. I can’t get dry soy beans where I am so use chick peas or black eye beans.

How did it turn out?

Have been doing this stuff for more years than most of you have been alive, ha,ha!!

In the early days of torrents, seeding was a key feature to keep the post alive. But now it seems too many just want to download and fuck off, with absolutely no seeding back. Why is that? They just download something, then it’s fuck off to anyone else who might want to download it?

To me the basic spirit of sharing has gone. Maybe I’m just an old cunt now, but to me it’s a real shame.
