going to be on a repairing and project speedrun as howloween nears! Goal: Fix old Sony Handicam with night vision (done) Add horns, LED tailband, and LED wristband and a LCD text display name tag to reflect my fursona more. i swear to god. I was fucking scared when i took these shots.

#Howloween Just also checking in. Is anyone going to Howloween and needs a room? We've got a room at Comfort Hotel Vancouver Airport, on the other-side of Westminster Hwy across from the actual convention centre. 18+ only! DM on @joshuadragon77 telegram or here if you are interested!

Hmmm, such similarities. It looks we have come full circle (or nearly) four years later to have a AI necklace pretending to be a friend. I seriously hate AI and this I do not believe is a way to "fix" loneliness. It is a much deeper problem and yet everyone tries to bandage it with shitty AI.

Fixing my old HP Pavilion finally after several years of not doing anything. I was able to replace the work down display cable and solder on a simple button for the broken power button. This was my computer since Grade 4!!

Went out with my mom and brother for a bit of family time. Saw the awesome and cool works of neon art all around the beltline area. This is the Calgary Night Light Festival! #calgarynightlight #calgary #nightlights #protogen

so fucking pissed off with myself. why the hell did I delete crypttab from my computer? was trying to fucking read it and not delete it great now my computer will be unbootable the next time around unless I replace the file. so fucking stupid. I hate myself.

poggers that's soo good

absolute gorgeous and cute headshot done by Jalmu! captures the exact look of what jades looks like merp! Check em out! @the-jalmu.bsky.social linktr.ee/jalmu

the signs are all there... i am suffering from very low self esteem. every doubt, every reaction from others has put me on an emotional roller coaster of avoidance, isolation and endless depression. i know what the next step forward but it will be a long journey. i ask you to still be with me.

See me in Calgary Pride 2025!!! I amma gonna be in the Otafest walking group. This lovely fellow Rib will be there in the Calfurry walking group. merp

nearly returned my MacBook to what it was originally. installed back the lost hyprland configuration, rebuilt some big software. had to actually rebuild different versions of different components behind my dot file to ensure it is stable. hyprlock kept crashing. I should try Gentoo Linux lol

can't fucking think straight at all anymore, forgetting more shit and unable to perform life tasks. my emotions all riled up and pulled in all directions. *sigh, such a me problem

so one day, my p1s bambu printer decided to give me error code 05014024 and I could no longer print from the cloud. :( turns out, my raspberry Pi which was running my DNS server died for some reason and killed my p1s ability to connect to the cloud. huh

also I want to give this animation I made some more exposure, like come on, it looks really good compared to anything else I made. YouTube didn't do it justice with the views and all. :( pleeesss rate and gib feedback youtu.be/UN5iI8K-SMg #protogen #furry #animation #robloxstudio #sunalta

Finally got to partake something called a hobby and it's electrical shit plus music visualizing. i had connected some LED strips to an Arduino that receives UDP packets from my visualizer. the song of highlight is inertia by disphing. :) youtu.be/kvh76ifq4qY?...

here is some pics I got with some furs. I wished I could have gotten more, maybe next time.

can't believe it is over so quick. this night was the best night. enjoying this ramstick someone gave me but I forgot their name. ;-; #fureh #furry

when that panel at fur eh is completely full, ruining your entire plan of the day. no context necessary. don't ask for it :) #fureh #protogen #furry

guess where I am ^_^ #fureh

Happy canada day everyone!

me in agony after wisdooom teeth removal. can't eat properly and feeling hungry all the time. barely have any energy to get through the day and getting hella skinny. :(

turns out. the lora textie device my team cooked up in engineering school can be a phone. just watching youtube on it while enjoying some spaghetti. hint it runs linux.

late to all the shits in my life. Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈 Stay true to your colours :3

hopefully didn't jinx it. i found out, i have a fucking fan that ionizes air right beside my workspace. touched my computer case and got the living shock out of it when the ionizer setting is on. measured that potential to be 1.5 volts. bruh, no wonder why my gpu dies. rip my file system now.

heading off to bed. i discovered my computer is generating its own static electricity. when i plug in a usb cable, i can see sparks coming off of it. maybe that's why the you keeps crashing. the static electricity it generates is pretty shocking.

okay, it no longer crashes. but I am blaming spotify shitty code (partially). I found that when my amdgpu crashes, spotify dumps core. Probably irrelevant since I also found that spotify dump core whenever it starts. jesus christ, spotify is a nasty shitty program. whatever, idk why my gpu dies.

@sanityxrationelle.bsky.social l Question. I have bought a protogen LED badge from you guys and I want to protect the writing on the backside by 3D printing a thin layer of translucent PETG and gluing to that side. Would the writing be ruined by using isopropyl alcohol on it? Probably likely.

all the sudden my god damn computer keeps black screening. it runs arch linux. turns out the amdgpu driver keeps on crashing randomly rendering the entire system unusable. wtf??? fuck this shit. forced to use integrated shit in the time being.

Modded my bambu printer because my ender 3 pro is still being borrowed. that's fine. added way better led system thanks to this model makerworld.com/models/99746 and modded my electrical solution by using a relay. found out bambi controls the led by using logic ground. wtf? first time.

just realized i used the same photo of the protos from my previous post i feel so goddamn drunk and stupid. literally can't focus.

also definitely going to up my fursuiting game and upgrading the durability of my admin gun. the facade kept falling out because of that damn hot glue. that pissed me off.

Calfurry was my first ever convention and it has been utterly amazing. :3 I am feeling depressed and saddened that it's gone though. It will be tough to get back up to speed with my actual life. I have met some amazing people. Definitely very much going to miss everyone. I will be at Fur-eh tho

Ten. Thousand. Dollars. We came together this con and raised $10,000 for Furball Force! Thank you everyone for your support, your donations and your efforts into raising money for this wonderful charity!

Thank you so much, critters. 1168 of you attended our inaugural year of Calfurry. This path is one we've been looking forward to for so long, and you helped make it all happen. To the staff, volunteers, dealers, vendors, attendees, everyone - we appreciate you so much. 🐃

calffury uwu

gearing up with a cosplay prop to complement me being jades before Calfurry and Otafest It's my good ol admin gun from the good ol days. :) It obviously cannot shoot nukes, transfur people, drill holes, or fling someone. But it will have crazy led systems.

let'ssss goooo www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVI_...

feels great to have finished my winter term. the past few weeks have been grueling on my mental health. the fear of failure has gotten me unable to cope, take care of myself n shit. glad that actually sort of motivated me to study and complete those exams easily? idk lol

long nights. 1 week left to complete two big university projects. a few more weeks till my worst exam. but enjoying being a silly proot in the moment. :P

I am going to tell you that using an MCP 3008 ADC for recording audio isn't really a terrible idea. If you are able to get 75 ksps, have adequate computing power to average the audio and get 5000 Hz sampling rate. You actually get decent audio. will publish full source code soon + evidence :3

for my upcoming disappointing 22nd birthday. I will re-use my 2022 version of my website to celebrate. no new version yet. blame school and everything i hate about it. there will be some sexy art and new user interface design. :)

Okay I am glad I got my system up and running again after a fatal problem causing applications to freeze the entire system. Moved all my home files from the DRAM-less SSD to my primary SSD and it worked splendidly. Changed some file permissions and did and upgrade to confirm. phew. :')

look at this nonsense. this is one of the solutions i think could work. i am transferring all my home files from my dram-less ssd to the primary ssd.

well there goes my weekend. static electricity somehow killed the GPU causing the system to freeze. had to force power it down and reboot it. now it can't even run spotify or anything without kernel freezing. trying to transfer my home files to the main ssd...

Section 321 has been abruptly revoked. Until further notice, Nomad Complex will be offline while we figure out what path forward we can take to fulfill our orders. As of now, we have no viable options. Full details of the ripple effects of this order can be found on our website. nomadcomplex.com

We stand with Canada and Mexico!

Another successful and great day. I have done another port of one of my macOS projects to Linux. My old legacy Music Visualizer Java programs. :) You can generate JadeLyrics files and use them on all my Music Visualizing Program. github.com/joshuadragon...

shit. just realized the Network Plugin from Bambu don't work. It's propriety from my knowledge so I won't be able to cheese it and build it like BambuStudio. all my efforts are in shambles. :( got a useless program that I can't do jack shit with now.
