Moving Instances For no particular reason I have decided to move Mastodon instances: from fosstodon.org to graphics.social Okay partially it was due to my posting: I tend to post 3d renders and graphics and so it felt more fitting to be on an instance that appears to be ostensibly more graphical than software. Also I know a few folk on there and so assumed it would be a good fit. ...
Hugo Post after update fails After updating to HUGO version v0.146.0 I was unable to run the compilation due to template definition errors. I found the solution below and after correcting the lines shown in the diff all was working once again. For those unfamiliar with diff the lines starting with a +green are the new line, the -red the old. diff --git a/layouts/partials/head.html b/layouts/partials/head.html index 3e55c67..ae6450a 100644 --- a/layouts/partials/head.html +++ b/layouts/partials/head.html @@ -150,8 +150,8 @@ {{- /* Misc */}} {{- if hugo.IsProduction | or (eq site.Params.env "production") }} -{{- template "_internal/google_analytics.html" . }} -{{- template "partials/templates/opengraph.html" . }} -{{- template "partials/templates/twitter_cards.html" . }} -{{- template "partials/templates/schema_json.html" . }} +{{- partial "google_analytics.html" . }} +{{- partial "templates/opengraph.html" . }} +{{- partial "templates/twitter_cards.html" . }} +{{- partial "templates/schema_json.html" . }} {{- end -}} diff --git a/layouts/partials/templates/schema_json.html b/layouts/partials/templates/schema_json.html index dc3bfd6..8a4efb4 100644 --- a/layouts/partials/templates/schema_json.html +++ b/layouts/partials/templates/schema_json.html @@ -85,7 +85,7 @@ {{ (path.Join .RelPermalink .Params.cover.image ) | absURL }}, {{- end}} {{- else }} - {{- $images := partial "partials/templates/_funcs/get-page-images" . -}} + {{- $images := partial "templates/_funcs/get-page-images" . -}} {{- with index $images 0 -}} "image": {{ .Permalink }}, {{- end }} diff --git a/layouts/partials/templates/twitter_cards.html b/layouts/partials/templates/twitter_cards.html index 6b0d59b..a6e1d05 100644 --- a/layouts/partials/templates/twitter_cards.html +++ b/layouts/partials/templates/twitter_cards.html @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ <meta name="twitter:image" content="{{ (path.Join .RelPermalink .Params.cover.image ) | absURL }}"> {{- end}} {{- else }} -{{- $images := partial "partials/templates/_funcs/get-page-images" . -}} +{{- $images := partial "templates/_funcs/get-page-images" . -}} {{- with index $images 0 -}} <meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image"> <meta name="twitter:image" content="{{ .Permalink }}"> Link to the Original Post
May Day It is the first of May or in the common parlance: May Day. The international workers day and a public holiday in most western countries. I took the day as a day of rest and relaxation, enjoying the fine weather and relative peace and quiet for a change. The older I get, the more noisy humans irritate me and my ability to ignore them diminishes. Perhaps I am imagining it but I am sure world is just getting louder and more annoying. ...
This month has been an unadulterated mess, geopolitically, but I am not here to post about that, politics are one thing I try to keep off line there is more than enough Troll fodder out there already. It has however been very nerving and frankly bewildering. So much of a distraction in fact I ended the month with little more than a pot, that’s it a pot. Perhaps because the whole month has been so damned potty. ...
I started the new year playing with some image textures for my models, in particular metal and rust: Example maps used above As an example of some of the textures I made here is a Steel and Rust one used on the shader ball I made. If you wish you can right-click and download them and use them on your own work as you please: ...
This year I went with a dark grey suit and hat, with the addition of a little colour in the form of the Christmas tree badge. Here is a copy of the Christmas tree in the SVG format, feel free to copy and use as you wish. Almost certainly this will be the last post of the year and so I wish you a peaceful Yuletide.
I haven’t posted at all this month, I have been busy though so to make it before December here is a little model I made at the end of last month: I don’t think next month will be any better, we will see…
I have been remiss in posting for a while and in April I posted nothing. The reason for this is the move I mentioned in the previous post. Well that and nothing really much of interest to say, apart from how much I hate cardboard now. May has had a slow start, still figuring out where to put stuff in the new place and how many curtains I need to hang, it is very bright here and I have four large windows, three full length with a door to open and a balcony, I know terrible. The problem is blocking the light from my screen in the daytime as it is very bright from behind. I have a solution for three of the windows and another pair of “blackouts” coming on the weekend, then I should be secure in my little dark man cave. ...
After nearly three years living here on the Elbe, we have finally found a new place back in town. Living out here has been a mixed bag of country calm, noisy garden machinery, and day tripper motorcycle madness. Post COVID has seen the later go from manageable to really annoying at times. The Elbe is not far from us, about 150m behind our house with the main shipping lane to Hamburg about 1.5km across the water, this means we often hear the deep drone of container ships coming and going, this is more noticeable in winter when the trees along the shore are bare. Worse than the sound though is the pollution from the ships. We never considered this, as we moved in here during the COVID lock down and so it was much less pronounced then. ...
A lot of stuff going on this month and almost none of it productive. February has been a month of waiting and hoping, details still under wraps as I don’t wish to jinx anything. The first half of the month was reasonably productive I managed to add a more features to the addon I am working on. It is almost complete and I will post when it is finished. I am still not sure if I will release it or just keep it for personal use. ...
