Leather strop for sharpening
I’m genuinely curious here - really? As someone who always has to mess with the old fashioned ‘steel’ (mind your hands cus there’s no guard on it!) sharpener, are they better? Honestly, heard of them, never used but interested.
Funny, but I see soo many kids walking to school with their worldly belongings in their back packs! Worse is they’re hanging soo low - at least get a hip strap. Life lessons I guess. In my day we had lockers in the school.
Great advice and thanks for taking the time.
For what it’s now worth, this has been my way so far (which by the sound of it may be why I’m unsuccessful): load kindling, one log and a couple of firelighters, light fire, keep control open and also door.
Close door after 3-4 mins, wait until log is burnt on one side then turn it over, wait until its burnt through then add another log then repeat turn and refill.
Not getting chance to watch tv properly as I’m constantly watching the fire!
Do you find any type of log better than others?
Thanks again for the advice.
Thaks for the oxyclear tip and yeah, loading the fire up initially is something I struggle with - it stays in our it goes out. I’ll try that loading fashion - cheers.
That’s a fucking ridiculous loss of human lives - irrespective of the side they’re fighting - shame! Fucking wake up these people and just stop killing each other !
Joplin syncs with Nextcloud - Orgzly does too. Agreed, Jtxboard does - via davx5.
I’m currently using obsidian synced via syncthing. I know it’s not Nextcloud, but it works well and has a nice interface and lots of plug-ins - even on Android. It might be able to sync - not bothered trying to yet - if anyone has, please comment.
Good luck with your search.
Absolutely no issues at all on lemm.ee from the day reddit killed 3rd party apps - using boost now.
+1 for Graceland. For me it’s ‘Hearts and Bones’. Good on you for keeping the legends alive!
Recently visited York (UK) and they have a fantastic bus system - and they’re electric.
Good advice 👍

That sounds good, I’ll check it out. Thanks.
Pretty sure that’s a skill too - probably confuses attackers who try to pre-empt your movements.
Gottcha 👍
Been meaning to learn this for a while - thanks for setting this up.
I agree, there does appear to be a few issues atm. Hoping they’ll get sorted soon.
Frost is the one I use (on F-droid). I like the interface.
Edit: forgot to add it’s a wrapper.
Ah yes, my mistake.
I honestly have no idea, but I hope you get this shit sorted out somehow - good luck.
Hi, apologies for the delay in replying and thanks for the advice - I’ve been following it this weekend after getting some more logs.
So far it’s working well - I’m on top-down (Scandinavian) method - gets a really nice fire going quick and heats up the flue pretty quickly too. Your tip on getting a moisture tester: I’m gonna follow up soon when I get paid. I get that it’s going to be pretty useful.
I got the two controls mixed up: left being main air vent (which I now keep open until the fire gets red hot) and the right (which I used to keep closed all the time) and now leave open. So, it’s running pretty nice now, my next challenge is keeping it going! I got some complaints that the room was going cold so I’m not sure if leaving the logs to go to embers was leaving it too late before putting more logs on.
Again, thanks for the heads up, this is a learning curve for us, but I really appreciate the help.
