They all suffered damage via seal expansion, making their hose connections worthless but not catastrophic enough for free water

If you needed any clue as to what I would like to do to you, look no further than my bsky handle

Time to look for yet another browser. It's getting so bad in all these industries. I'm running out of safe options to use. If I wasn't technically inclined in 2025 I'd be cooked.

Tonight is the second night temps will drop below 20 here on the SC coast (which is unheard of) None of my adjacent neighbors have wrapped their outdoor spigots and still have the automatic sprinklers loaded on them. My lawn is gonna get watered for free

Thanks YouTube for selecting only the HIGHEST of picture qualities when I ask for it

Appetites be weird. Morning: I've eaten one Cheerio and I'm ready to start the day! Lunchtime: I will violently shut down until an entire horse carcass has passed through your digestive tract.

On the home stretch of carving foam blocks and you can see real time how much it's improved over the last couple of days. The first set I did look like Minecraft blocks and this current set look like environmentally worn blocks

I designed this TV entertainment center with @yeahpapayaya.bsky.social and now I bless your timeline with it. He's got the Pup Noodle 🥺

Someone travel back to the start of today and tell past Lap that foam carving and texturing is suffering

It's nice to see Minnesota embracing the true meaning of Mahjong

I've been animating a little pixel animated dashboard and of course I gotta be in there

Bottom energy is directly proportional to how large your glasses are

I've been storing my power... biding my time to finally be in a situation where I could unleash the growing quantity of unframed art onto my abode. And the victim ended up being the refrigerator. Thanks @melangetic.bsky.social and @yeahpapayaya.bsky.social for all the wonderful art over the years!

I hacked my robot vacuum, hoovered all the data, drew a pixel art map of my house, and slapped the two together to watch it clean the house real time. Looks neat!

Bought an energy monitor, reflashed the board to talk to my house instead of a 3rd party cloud, and just finished cramming it in the breaker panel. We have our energy usage on lockdown now 👍

NASA posted a photo of Jupiter under ultraviolet light 🏳️‍⚧️

I wasn't satisfied with the options available for printable and customizable low voltage faceplates. Thus, I made them myself and released them into the wild with no strings attached. Includes 3MF and STEP files! www.printables.com/model/148762...

POV: you're playing Mahjong seated across from me

Robocalls only transfer when it detects a human. Learn how protogens avoid call center scams with this one weird trick

Just moved into a new place and went to get basics to fill out the place. Found an ultra thicc shower curtain with rainbow hearts on it on clearance for $5. Perks of being surrounded by (insert obvious ideology that hates rainbows)?

This is still, by far, my favorite picture from one of the escape rooms I put together. Laser mazes are fun!

Nop nop nop, not a chance says the embedded dev

Did you remember to pet a mustelid today?

Just wrapped up a large touch wall that has a nice contrast under blacklight 👍 The correct tiles make a noise when touched

Mega Delphox' Midnight Flight

One request for a cube prop was to have a spooky "head in hole" element where players would have to find clues. Me: okay lets make an entire tunnel through the cube

It's important to have specialized services in place to handle a component of a large vertical stack. AWS fills a slot in that stack and is very good at it. Downtime is close to nonexistent when we expand the timeline. When I buy a computer, I don't want to create the OS from scratch.

If you're doing construction on a road and assign a worker to mediate traffic going both directions on one lane, make sure said worker knows the signals and is not communicating in random wingdings. Dude with the slow/stop sign on the way to work was doing jumping jacks at people.

There's a close 1:1 cause and effect of forgetting to take a vitamin before bed and struggling to get up in the morning the next day.

3d printer needed a new board. Dealing with Prusa support to resolve the issue was a frustrating month and a half long experience. Fun suggestions included "rotate your extruder". They did send a board in the end though. Printer is back up and running!

What if we spent all day building crazy contraptions and creating cute decor Haha jk... unless...?

Remembering the time I built a laser maze in an escape room and the origin of the lasers came out of this monopoly man picture on the wall

A friend of mine sent me a bunch of retro console rejects with a request to make some replacement parts. His requests usually imply there is no decent alternative out there. Wondering how viable it would be to set up a little store online to sell these in various colors

Bought an air spray setup a month ago and I've been practicing on and off trying to get better at applying paint. I'm slowly getting good enough for the shiny automotive finish through sanding and application

Endless wall tiles

I'm still waiting on my crew to come down and do a photoshoot but here's what a pixel test of a floor with 4280 LEDs looks like

I decided to have fun with domain verification

I usually check job listings for leads on potential clients, and a listing popped up for relevant work. Investigating the source of this job ad turned into one hell of a rabbit hole.

Made a fun little spinny boi for the 3d printer extruder. Kamek would be proud

I tried to make this a few years ago and didn't like the result. Tried again with more knowledge, and it turned out great!

Managed to get my CNC accurate enough for jointed components. First test application? A prop gear with colorful inlays :>

"Make us a button that gives clues in the escape room"

There is a bill right now in the US trying to pass It would make it illegal for any financial service provider to prohibit or inhibit any legal transaction It's called the "Fair Access to Banking Act, H.R.987 in the House, S.410 in the Senate" Call your representatives if you live in the US !!!!

Tfw you measure, measure again, and measure a third time then cut... and realize you spent all that time triple checking to cut the wrong part entirely. Anyway I bought more timing belts today for a servo drive.

It's frustrating how long it takes me to give myself permission to decorate my spaces. It's a mental tug-o-war that can take several months to win.

Every time it rains at the warehouse and slams the steel walls it sounds like a war is going on outside
