As part of my PhD., I had to do additional courses to bolster my skills and round out my overall knowledge. I chose to to concentrate on ethics, which is unfortunate because as far as I can see nobody in the government or the tech industry has any intention of using any.

I mean when you think about it, an ice cream van is just a manual 3d printer for dairy.

That's tea sorted tomorrow then. Beetroot, carrots, and purple broccoli are really seeing us through the early season. Will do more of these this year.

Still working on the laser... Every piece has worked first time so far. Nice to do a project that isn't a pain in the bum that needs endless bodges.

Making a manually adjustable bed for the laser cutter. Having a fast 3d printer really makes things feel easier.

The good thing about keeping a stock of screws and bolts in your workshop is that it gives you somewhere to put all the other spare screws and bolts you've just had to buy because you didn't have the right one for the job you're currently doing.

Look, if your article is full of "suggests" and "may", and links to studies of unrelated things that draw false equivalence: Even if I agree 100% with the broad sentiment, I'm going to think you're talking complete bollocks. Unless I see the word "shows" or "proves" you're just going on a flight of fancy. You're deliberately saying fuck all in a lot of fancy words to make people who don't have proper scientific and critical evaluation skills panic. It's a shitty thing to do, and needs to stop.

Pro tip: if you see a tree that looks like this, you've probably fallen over onto your back.

Eating a scotch egg at a picnic table outside the hospital. Nice to go out somewhere different for a change.😐

Remember when you'd walk down the road at the weekend, and there'd be bikes on people's lawns, and somebody would have their car up on a ramp on the drive, or the bonnet up and their head down inside, with a cheap transistor radio and a cup of tea perched somewhere on the engine.

The corner shop would have a table up outside with the fruit and veg on it, a few bags of coal and some kindling underneath.

Decided to do some cooking with the small humans today but they kept spitting the apples out and running away before I could season them. In the end they made cupcakes instead.

The smallest child is eating a club bar sideways like she's playing a harmonica. I'm frightened for the future.

I'll be honest, I wake up pretty much every morning and think "I have no idea how to fix any of this". Then I do the things in supposed to do for my family, and try to do some extra things to make life easier if I can, and then I go back to bed thinking "I have no idea how to fix any of this" and the whole process starts again. This probably isn't a healthy way to live, but I'll be honest, I have no idea how to fix any of this.

You've made it to Humpday morning without planting the numpties under your patio. That's all anyone can ask in the current climate. Just because they can't ask doesn't mean then you shouldn't keep going anyway. So choose the things that matter, knuckle down, and grind through to the other side of Friday as best you can. https://www.lewis-workshop.com #giftideas #gifts #giftidea #motivation #motivational #funny #workshop #work #WorkFromHome

I used to be fascinated by computers and technology when I was younger, but I just spent 5 minutes forcing a required firmware update onto a hat. I'm going to live in a hollow tree in an enchanted forest where WiFi doesn't reach, and I'm only going to venture out to buy ingredients for my delicious cakes and bread. I might possibly get an amusing teapot if I spot one in the window of a shop.

It's talk like a pirate day! Here I go:

"I just want to access the media I already own in a portable format that I can watch or listen to in high quality on all my devices without DRM or adverts."

Did I do it right?
