Anyone able to help me out here with identifying this bug? I can't spend 10 minutes in my garden without having at least one waltzing over me. They're annoying just because there are so many of them! They're like, say, 5mm tall or so, not huge. The pic should show that clearly unless you really believe that those fingers belong to a giant. Location is in the Netherlands.

This is a righteous mess. I think I need to reorganize my base. I'm too lazy, though. :P

We're searching for the right sizes of stuff that can be pushed with the bulldozer cover on those robots. I think I've found the perfect one, a lightweight plastic bowl of 12 by 12 cm in diameter. (The grid is 15 by 15) We can do the perfect Sokoban scenario with this.
Coworker volunteered to paint the bowl. He loves to be creative with his hands. ;)

I also decided to check out which of the Blue-Bots are calibrated by letting them rotate 4 times to form a circle. The new penholders are great for this.
Number 3 and 5 have the worst results (the circles aren't closed at all) so I've put them aside as they won't be great to test with. I'll have to examine them sometime.

My coworker is very enthusiastic about the new accessoires we got for the Blue-Bot and we both had plenty of ideas. So our first step is to prepare a whiteboard with a grid so we can try to put our ideas at work.
Chances are we can create some lesson materials, we have the means to do so.

Been testing out the new pen holders for the Blue-Bots. Don't mind the schematics of something else on the smaller piece of paper, that is for the Tovertafel (magic table) which we're also busy with setting up.
Anyway, yeah, you can see in the bigger piece of paper that the drawing went out of bounds. I had to scrub the floor clean. 😬 😅
We've got some nice plans for this one, kinda in the idea of tangram. We'll make a few pre-defined drawings, and then the kids can try and replicate it on their own with those robots.
Of course they can also make their own drawings. 😋

Me riding a snow giraffe. Handy, now I can't get stuck in the powdered snow where you can 'drown' to the cold. That's apparently a feature introduced in 1.17, and the giraffe is from a mod Creatures from the Snow.
Managed to find the first Eye of many required to advance in this modpack Legend of the Eyes.

Conclusion: It is 90% certain that the accus are worn out and thus the Bluebots aren't responding correctly anymore.
We'll order 6 new accus... and while we're ordering anyway, also a shitton of other accessoires to augment the Bluebot experience. The principal gave us the go-ahead. :D
Just a shame that all educative things are so expensive. But oh well, the school's got a budget for this kind of stuff I guess.

Oh jeez, another case of raiders trying to attack my base but my allies suddenly popped up to 'help me out' (read: they totally got slaughtered), while I was already busy lining the edges of my killbox with my armed forces.
So the end result? Double loot. From my raiders and from my allies. :P

I really enjoyed the latest issue (#368) of Suske and Wiske, "De Rookburgh Rookies". It's a cool steampunk story and with a bit of AI in it. Was a fun read!

Roombas with knives? Of course there would be a mod for that. I might just get this. 😂

Imagine a horde of Stabby Roombas heading towards you!
Also quite with the times, this mod; Armored backpacks, kid's weapons. I guess everybody needs to be able to defend themselves in the rim. At least _they_ have a good reason to own weapons. :P

Home (2015) is such a nice movie. I've seen it before, but it was nice to see it again. And I still think that the hair of that girl is outright gorgeous. The animators really did a splendid job there.

This one is now a backup account, my activities on Qoto will be low.

Used to be on another mastodon server regularly, but it's been inaccessible since November 2020. So I've decided to join Qoto instead! I like the features this server has to offer.
