So related to that earlier toot this morning I have discovered you can #repair a crushed unsolicited free rubber duck included with electronics by dunking said ducko in boiling water... I felt you all should know.
New one for me, ordered a bigtreetech skr pico board for an @rpimag project... got a free slightly crushed rubber ducky! Hope this doesnt mean a load of rubber duck debugging! #rp2040
Gotta haul a few tools from the #doghouse to home later today so took the scrapheap ebike. It pleases me that this pannier bag I pulled out of a community centre bin with a rip in it over 15 years ago. Simple hand sewn #repair and it's still toting my crap! :)
Lol... the Hackaday effect on the old blog!
A poignant #SilentSunday it's 8 years since my step dad passed. Lovely steady walk that he would have enjoyed. Plenty of #mosstodon and #lichensubscribe
Just adorned that rugged box I made for my #XteinkX4 with one of my favourite @fsfe stickers. Seemed fitting for an ereader I immediately flashed with an #opensource firmware :)
A friend of mine bought me an aeropress for my 50th... living the dream in the #doghouse this morning.
Mucking about earlier with the #xteinkx4 #ereader with the #opensource crosspoint reader firmware. Added a custom sleep image file for a pretty cool name badge! #tinkering
Today with many fails, and almost an entire blue roll I somewhat learnt the art of resin #3dprinting. Here is Harri's @Blender file he did for my birthday. Cc @4thievesvinegar
Earlier, as part of 50 celebrations, we did some sauna and lake dips. Awesome.. I am relaxed as jelly now....
