  • So not much of interest, at least for me. Stability, UI.

    ”What’s actually changed? Frankly, there’s too many individual improvements to list. But some quick highlights:

    For users it should provide a more stable experience overall. There’s better error handling, more in-depth progress notifications for Decky and plugins. Along with Decky being properly usable without an internet connection. There’s also various UI styling improvements. You should also hopefully never see the boot-loop problem again with some recent changes.”





  • Why did you put iron oxide in the mix?

    Various recipes say it both dyes and adds to waterproofing by filling in the gaps in the weave.

    Now that I think about it, I’m wondering if the weave was too loose to hold the particles. I wanted something lighter than a full weight canvas so I used a seemingly tightly woven linen tablecloth. I hot washed it to shrink/tighten it further before applying the treatment, but I’ve noticed I can still see light through the fabric.

    We live and learn I guess. Bit of an expensive experiment, but it’s an excuse to try again. I prefer the natural linseed colour to the red of the iron oxide anyway.
