Professor_Stevens<p>Some years ago, <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@DoorbellQueen" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>DoorbellQueen</span></a></span> taught me you can revive limp celery by chopping off its stem, and putting it in cold water overnight.</p><p>Recently, I have found out this works for carrots and cauliflower too. You have to cut them into three-inch pieces and submerge them, and the carrots might need a couple of days, but it works!</p><p>Veggies go limp because they dry out. Hydrate them, and they become crisp again. Might well work with others, too.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/LessonLearned" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LessonLearned</span></a></p>
pat radio<p>Remember that part where you're warned to never lend a book that you'd actually want returned to you?</p><p>Shit.</p><p>It's been maybe 10 weeks. Friend is moving, and I figured since he never brought it up, he never got around to reading the book, so I ask for it back.</p><p>And...he can't find it and barely remembers me giving it to him.</p><p>It's not priceless. I can afford to buy myself another copy, but goddamn, keep track of your shit. More importantly, keep track of my shit!</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/LessonLearned" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LessonLearned</span></a></p>
JillyLovesLife<p>Just had my first up close and personal experience with a baboon in the house! Dog went into hiding which was a pretty good early warning! Luckily no damage just stole the bananas. Must keep all doors locked as they can open them! <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/baboon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>baboon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/LessonLearned" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LessonLearned</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/South_Africa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>South_Africa</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Simonstown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Simonstown</span></a></p>

I suspect the cops will clamp down harder in the future. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/lessonlearned" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lessonlearned</span></a></p>
Michael Babcock<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://tweesecake.social/@RaymondsCorner" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>RaymondsCorner</span></a></span> I was recently passed with recording and doing the audio video for a wedding. Unfortunately, with speaker view/share view being the only view that was recorded, none of the auxiliary input video sources I used were captured in the reporting. Gallery view will record every video that’s on the screen and Enlarge the view of the person speaking. So it wouldn’t have been perfect, but at least it would’ve captured the wedding in video. <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/LessonLearned" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LessonLearned</span></a></p>

Stefan Bohacek<p>I don't know if anyone's following along, but just to wrap this thread up, I decided to just switch to DigitalOcean Spaces to host the images remotely.</p><p>I wish I've done that right away, it's a bit harder to downgrade the server after expanding the disk.</p><p>Still, hope this lesson helps someone else, and I will also know better if I ever set up another instance.</p><p><a href="https://stefanbohacek.online/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://stefanbohacek.online/tags/FediAdmins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediAdmins</span></a> <a href="https://stefanbohacek.online/tags/MastoAdmins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmins</span></a> <a href="https://stefanbohacek.online/tags/selfhosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>selfhosting</span></a> <a href="https://stefanbohacek.online/tags/selfhosted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>selfhosted</span></a> <a href="https://stefanbohacek.online/tags/LessonLearned" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LessonLearned</span></a></p>

I sourced a power adapter, but... the barrel plug wasn't the right size and wiggled far too much. Next, I sourced a larger barrel plug pigtail to use with my benchtop power supply. </p><p>Nope... too large...</p><p>"I know!" - I will take it apart to power the control board directly.</p><p>Hmmm - that's weird, there is no cable to the button panel...</p><p>Oh... wait... there are no electronics, motors or anything...
