Happy to see the Cosmo installation I worked on like 16 years ago is still going strong!
A still from an old home movie at least 45+ years ago I was watching. I believe this means I die in seven days, no?
Have you been afflicted with the disease of ambidexterity? I wonder what the cure is, not paying back your bookie on time?
I wonder what would happen if I tried to rerelease the old Pac-Guy games on steam, even for free. I can't guarantee all the assets used were... Ours. Maybe I shouldn't say that here ..
I think this was the first video game I ever made, back when I was a teen.
That feeling when you pop open your TV remote because it isn't holding a charge and find out it runs on super capacitors that are more expensive than a new remote to replace.
This cat is so fluffy! It helps that he sits directly over heat vents to get blowouts whenever he wants. SO FLUFFY AND SOFT.
Trying this again! I found this gif (now video) demoing a touchscreen app I made in flash decades ago to emulate the 'Wooly Willy' child's toy. I just played with it and I'm genuinely impressed with myself with how accurate it feels to the aesthetic and frustration of the actual toy!

Wish I'd gotten a pic of the inside, but here it is with the rubber and other button back on. This switch worked well because it had legs long enough to go through the button hole, then I used small lengths of silicone wire so they were flexible and squishy enough to fit inside.
Headphones power / volume up button broke. This is my, er, fix! Yeah I know it's a toggle switch, but I didn't have any tiny momentary switches on hand. Fingers crossed it still works after the glue dries!
First Halloween upright, I think next year we'll try trick or treating!
I was repairing my electric toothbrush and am getting some real sonic screwdriver vibes from the inside.
Went to a Halloween party with my costume, "Guy afraid of spiders wondering 'Is there something on my face?'". Forgot to take a picture last night but this is the crux of it.
Wow the input shaping on the new alpha firmware for the Prusa Mini is incredible. This spider normally would've taken around 5 hours, now took not much more than 2! Really speeding up my Halloween decorations!
