I wonder how Eastern Europe is. Ukraine sounds like a good place but they will likely crack down on rights gradually after the war. Some would say lawless and corrupt but that's just a way to say freedom for all.
I wonder if someone could die and have an identity in such a place.

my virtual analog synthesiser is getting bigger now, because i'm past the proof of concept phase and fleshing out an architecture for it.
There really should be a cure for sleep.
I'm watching LA vs Austin and the properties of water are the best part. Soccer in the US, water is cool.
I finally got a new skateboard and put it all together. Like despite the rough patch in my life I feel happy.

this resurgence of everything analog and 8-bit wasn't something i expected. you shouldn't underestimate the power of childhood nostalgia, i guess. i have a lot of knowledge about how all of that stuff works and could easily design new electronics that makes use of it. i had just never expected there to be a market for something like that, but now there is...

@lupyuen i have a feeling thag will be an ongoing process for a while for you. Must be fun though, i widh i did more EE stuff.

This is a simple observation from my years of soldering: Every blend is a different experience.
I used a Zn/Ag/Cu alloy on a PCB and it was a different experience than leaded or the various Rohs solders I've used.
The 3.5% Ag solder with rosin core seems to flow to the joint very quickly with a hot iron.
I also realized that I didn't have adequate ventilation when I woke up feeling like garbage the next day. The HEPA filter was pulling in nearly everything but I suppose a box fan is better.
