  Anyone have a spare 1GbE PCI NIC around? (Not PCI-X or PCIe). Can swap another piece of tech junk with ya.. #Wisconsin Edit: I guess while we’re at it..also: -IDE hard drive of any size (I used to have a bunch but sold them long ago / only have a bunch of SATA ones around now)

  Upgrading Antix on the dual PIII machine. Why? Idk. (Though it is curious how long it takes and memory usage etc) Also I need to swap the bios battery. Hopefully that didn’t leak. #RetroComputing #Antix

  Nice little $10 thrifting haul today. Been needing CD-Rs for old Linux stuff to tide me over until the picoIDE is out. Wanted a cheap old Apple keyboard for those times you need a USB hub and thin keyboard for basic troubleshooting/ travel shit. Stunned to find an official Apple power adapter extension cable there too. Yoink. And longer component cables bc needed it for possible project / existing cables are very short. #Thrifting

  Candid photography is the antithesis of that posed ducklip selfie shit everyone loves these days. Real, genuine, fun expressions and actions vs a weakest facade just trying to sell one(‘s fake) self. And only one is allowed anymore these days. And it’s not the good one. Sigh.

  What do y'all like to see in #Introduction posts? What's good to include? Skip? This sort of ice-breaker "who/what am I/etc" question is always kinda nerve-wracking xD I just came to the realization I never actually wrote an intro post so I wanted to correct that. Thanks all for any tips/tricks.

  Day started off bad w/a nightmare the FBI was coming after me / the company or school I was a part of or something. Was super slow to get my ass in gear due to that but eventually got electrical project I wanted to wrap up in the garage done, as well as put away the zillion tools I had out from some other projects I’ve been working on this week. So that’s all nice and clean and tidy. And got some shopping done for the lil grilling out I also did w/some friends over, checking out our chicks 🐥

  The more something actively tries to exploit one's attention span, the more I actively detest and avoid it.

  Attention folks living in #Wisconsin / #Milwaukee / users of/in/around I-794 / #I794 Check out the Spring 2026 meeting materials and fill out the feedback/survey/form: https://www.794lakeinterchange.wisconsindot.gov/i794outreach#publicMeetings Need to tear this scar out of our city! Gosh I hope this thing gets removed. Can't stand the division / disconnection it causes, and the cars flying off ramps and how unsafe it makes the street grid. Also can't stand how they keep cooking...

  Any bar with vinyl plank flooring I detest and wanna run so far away from. Hotel rooms too. Has that cheap hose-it-down airBNB feeling that I just cannot relax in.

  Any good solar array calculators out there? Ones where I can plug in my location so the amount of sun / angle etc can be figured out and I can input dimensions of different arrays / efficiency % etc and get potential output of the system? Bonus points if I can size in different amounts of battery to try to figure out the minimum solar and/or battery to try to tide over the most extreme scenarios over yr? Searching online just comes up with a BUNCH of junk. This feels like a solved issue tho.

  "When the systemic problems are so big that nothing feels like it makes a difference anymore, the only thing left to do is to simply pour your passion into something that will stand out to others and hopefully be an inspiration to them." 1000% feel this.

  Why’s answering “yes” to a question with an “or” in it so damn funny.

  What's the stupid easiest way of converting HDMI/Displayport/DVI/VGA (any one of those) to a Component (YPbPr) video signal? Least amount of input/display/processing lag. Least amount of conversion artifacts / signal degradation. Least amount of heartache/headache when different resolutions are spat out by the source (1920x1080 down to 640x480?) I guess the other option: what's the last / best video card w/it built in? Seems to be Radeon HD 4850/4870?

  One of those days where you have a single project/task in mind, and just to accomplish it you spend all day doing a zillion other things just to get there/ make it work X> jfc. Not sure if I should've live-tooted the pain or try to hold it back.
