I make stuff at vdbx.io
I talk about that stuff a lot.
I live in a school bus named Gary Bussy.
I do all my own stunts.

Calm down bro, this is a Safeway. The desert is like a block away.

I haven’t gotten that far. I’m likely just gonna keep it on a plate or PCB for the foreseeable future. That’s 3mm carbon fiber, I’m thinking I might be able to do 2mm. I’m not too worried about the whole Alcantara fabric thing, even tho it’s nice. Maybe I’ll do something on the bottom.

I have spent way too many brain cycles finding a decent wireless knockoff so this is gonna be my platform to make my own. Gonna try to make a QMK PCB that can adapt to different laptop keyboards & trackpads. This is just a brydge kb splayed out for the now. Only its charging circuit is fucked.

Yes! Sorry for the delayed response, but you got it. Feel free to ping me if you like. I’m pretty familiar with EasyEDA and JLC.

Fuck your mechanical keyboard

Just a quick look at the hardware folder shows a .epro file which I think is an EasyEDA pro file. Once you get it loaded you should be able to send it straight to JLCPCB. I can help more if you like, I’m on phone rn.

I have ~15 SKUs designed with only a few needing more prototyping rounds. I’d love your help to prioritize a release schedule even if we don’t release all of them this year.
January 1, 2026 at 9:46 PM
I’m gonna do a longer post about this soon, but I think 2026 is the year I need a business partner. Someone to manage my chaos and mainly focus on the tasks needed to release my existing designs. Return on your time investment will be seen by the end of the year if not by summer + % ownership.

I've considered myself to be pretty apathetic to this portion of the calendar, but I'm starting to notice a pattern of existential dread coming out of the solstice every year.

Anyone else already expect they were gonna fuck up the redactions? I didn’t take the time to think how, but we’ve seen this before lol.

I literally prefer manual lol

I literally had an ex orchestrate getting me her building’s old PBX after she found out they were updating it.
I love my friends

Have any of you nerds actually used a passkey yet?

The threads on this one popped and I punched myself in the face. I just wanted a some cool pics of me doing weird shit to my microwave in the desert.

This thing actually slaps with a decent holder. Finally got the right idea with a 3d print and stuff I already had around.

Been watching Rudan Brothers and noted a few people saying some variation of “I watch/seen you on TV” so I guess YouTube is just TV now lol.

Weird that both my phone on Verizon and my router on T-Mobile cut out signal completely for about 5-10 mins last night. Never seen that before.
December 5, 2025 at 6:08 PM
Yeah, that tracks.

Apparently a 2 year old AMD chip is just a gaming pc now. Not only that, but this is on Fedora which it runs flawlessly. Not bad for $650 refurbished from Minisforum.

Also the fuckin error message says "fill in all entries with a red asterisk" - There wasn't a single asterisk on the page and unfilled boxes were highlighted red as shown in the screenshot.

this fuckin thing wouldn't even scroll to the marked data that was needed... I had to scan the entire document multiple times to find a missing checkbox - oh yeah and I got to repeat all these answers during my intake. She didn't have any of this in front of her.
