Scavenger, tinkerer, some more to be decided

I unironically love the 1987 Masters of the Universe movie.

It also contains this perfect 4th-wall break.

I put a Raspberry Pi Zero W into an old industrial keyboard.

It's going in the kitchen to look up recipes on. The Pi is also low-power enough to run off the TVs USB socket.

It won't run videos, but I hope I can get some webradio streams on it too.

It'll be nicer than covering my phones touchscreen with flour and oil trying to scroll down a recipe.

My new hairdryer arrived! It's terracota and cyan and giving me the urge for a spray-dye 80s perm.

Also makes me realise I've not heard of anyone writing a mind-control hairdryer where someone gets more bimbo'd the fluffier their hair gets.

Perhaps not something I'd write myself, except as a background character sort of thing, but.. the imagery makes me wonder if/why it's not been done before.

An Object Of Power arrived in the post today.
Yesterdays womble is now in the back garden to dismantle. A stairlift.
Does anyone know what tune the map music from the Goonies actually is?

"Entertainment"

A sequel to Gone With the Wind, $15 movie tickets being "high", holographic movies going onto real battlefields and into real nuclear reactor disasters. A robot plays Rachmaninoff but no one calls it a simphony.

The sitcom "So Who Wants to Work?" about penniless baby-boomers conning people to stay afloat sounds like it'd do pretty well today though.

"Sports"

Apparently the New York Yankees get put out to stud.

"On the road" (transport)

Maglevs, 2hrs from Singapore to LA, in-flight veal, Rambo First Blood pt6,gamblng in Las Vegas, $23542.68 over a 10 day trip, all-in.

I wonder if this was one of the first uses of "on-line classroom"?
