I know a lot of people love them but I’ve been trying to cut microplastics out of my diet.

Do you have a guide on doing a DIY version? It may be slightly beyond my skills to slap one together.

MOSFET boards have arrived. It's a miracle!

Message from a teacher friend. It’s bad.

It’s important to remember that our Democracy is fragile… just like the octogenarians who run things.

I’d suggest adding a cron job to reboot McConnell every night but at this point I think it’s better to do a permanent shutdown.

Pro-Tip: When I needed hernia surgery I asked the doctor (who was a woman) if she could also do a vasectomy since she'd be "down there" and she said "Absolutely" and I got a two for one deal.

Finally getting around to reading up on the Grove/Gravity/STEMMA/Qwiic options and how they differ. (Opinions welcome!)

So the car I got two years ago is a 2010 and it's the first car I've owned that expects you to have the headlights on all the time (while driving, I mean) and the headlights have failed again.

Is that just the norm for a car that has the headlights always-on thing? My old car didn't seem to chew through them as quickly.
