So how is it that I've gone all these years without knowing about the -L feature of ssh?
New experiment! Now I have a Joker ring. Should I make more? Malachite and purpleheart.
Wanted pancakes. Didn't have milk in the house. Too lazy to go to the store. Had to improvise.

Huge Props to Bart and the developer for making this open source plug-in!
Little update on that whole Blender YouTube blocking thing that was happening. Looks like it's been resolved now. And as a bonus, the Blender Foundation has started to investigate PeerTube.

There's a really nice article by Terry Hancock on open source collaboration tools. It's targeted mostly at animation workflows, but there's a lot of good information in there that'd be useful for all kinds of creative collaborations. #artwithopensource
