TFW you run `kill PID` and it succeeds, then you realize you mistyped PID. Uhh, what did I just nuke?

So many new faces on #Fosstodon!

Welcome everyone, it’s great to have so many people in our little corner of the fediverse!

If you’re new to Mastodon, this post I wrote may help you get going:

If you’re still stuck, get tootin’! We have a tonne of extremely helpful members here.

A heads up to #India folks, this is not bird app, this is open source so each of the different instances you are in, there is someone else working for you to get this experience. I see lot of you asking for features and moderators, it’s pretty entitled I feel, they are funded by donation so pls try to donate to different instances you are in: for the number of folks we have brought in even if each of us pay 100 rupees, it will make huge difference . I will get information where we can donate

Three functional mini engines!

First is a Stirling Engine, it reciprocates with Hot Air (ie Blow Torch). I machined all parts of this engine.

Second engine is also a Stirling Envying, albiet smaller. It includes a water pump driven by the fly wheel for cooling. I designed and built the water reservoir system.

Third engine is a Steam Engine, once part of an old Erector Set. Fill the water tank in the middle, place an oil lamp underneath, and steam will turn the fly wheel!
