really need to get a neck strap for the dslr before I dare take pictures outside

one of the nicest pics I took so far with the DSLR, someone at the smd stenceling and reflowing a Glasgow (github.com/GlasgowEmbedded/Gla) board

there's a skeletal
a DINO skeletal
IN MY WATCH
and it's made of PCB!!!

it's a tiny relief because they're actually traces under the soldermask, so in most light angles it seems pure black, but when the light catches it just right the skeletal appears

I should probably actually rewrite/port my tamafoxi code :thounking:

so I'm going to build a pwnagotchi.ai soon(tm) as it's really cute, but will fork the software as capturing wifi handshakes isn't too interesting (and possibly illegal?).
Any fun ideas for what it should do instead? Perhaps something with

mh~ 

finally getting out of bed without even the faintest idea where im pulling the energy from

thinking about the meaning of "performance", oops its about gender too 

This was inspired by another thread but felt like it's own thing

We have noticed that there is sometimes a notion, when the word "performing" or "acting" is used, that something is not genuine. The idea that if something is an act, it isn't *real*.

it's quite the opposite. a good performance comes from somewhere genuine and deep. a good DJ tells their own story to the audience in music. The difference between a singer singing the words, and really _feeling_ them is stark.

a genuine core shines through regardless of skill.

performing takes energy. but it's not inherently fake. and it can be deeply satisfying to do.

this carries to gender as well. "boy" was a character that I hated performing. It was a halfhearted phoned in act necessary for survival. "girl" is only a facet of who i am, but its something I very much enjoy performing. it can be exhausting, and i need breaks, but in the moment it feels right.

I got sent this and relate quite a lot; thinking this might be useful for some others here

borgbase's backup reminder emails are awesome

forgot to unmount my luna backup fuse mount for the second time, which locks it and then new backups will fail; but the 1 day inactive email does wonders :D

this is so cursed,,, closing the Wix website editor consistently fully crashes firefox
