I ordered a set of metal #dice and also received this card, which is immediately going in my wallet.

A bit of a throwback, but saw this in the store and had to pick it up. #Nostalgia #80s

Spent the last week or so setting up the amazing Field Station 42 (github.com/shane-mason/...) to create my own retro television network! Everything runs on a Pi 5. It even has 80s and 90s commercials.

Picked up a textured bed for my 3D printer. Oh, my days! I'm in love! 😍

I put in an order for filament and got a bit carried away. I think I’m good for a while.

Kinda irks me that up to down isn't lawful to chaotic and left to right isn't good to evil.

That being said, apparently I'm lawful neutral?

Lawful Neutral? Hmm.. sure. I can see it.

Worked well with my SEEED Studio. Modified the STL to fit a 12 LED Neopixel ring I had. Only odd thing is fast forward and rewind don’t seem to work. I’ll check my solder joints in the morning. Thanks for posting this cool project!

Desperate times in the office bathroom call for desperate measures. It’s happened twice.

ChatGPT just dropped this gem in the midst of a response to a rant about python, pip and externally managed environments. I nearly spit my drink. 😆
Text from a ChatGPT session that reads: "So yeah... your frustration is 100% valid. Sometimes, you just want to remove a white background from anime art — not become a Python dependency shaman."

Got donated this smol boi and loaded it up with MX Linux Fluxbox. Random puzzle box for scale. Might open it later, IDK.

After a few months (half of which was waiting on shipping), my #RaspberryPi Pico powered Magic 8 Ball is complete! A tilt sensor turns the screen on when you rotate it and it cycles through about 30 phrases.

Two halves of a custom "Magic 8 Ball", showing a series of magnets to hold it together and a battery, with 4 cables running between the halves. A digital "Magic 8 Ball", being held up. The screen shows a blue triangle and reads "A man chooses. A slave obeys."

An office of a friend of mine recently closed and they asked if I could scrub the PCs, put a fresh OS on them and donate them. What better way to spread the good word about #Linux. 😁

PSA: When designing custom PCBs, make sure you have the pins in the right position. I swapped my + and - pins for my booster and now it’s… well, I had to get creative.
