@Straiit it was one box with all the resistors sitting together. No bags or protection. It was a tangled mess.

Someone, and I don't want to say who, can't hold still for a picture and needs approximately ALL the belly rubs:

I saw this bummer sticker on the way to the office this morning and it is the most @Blenster and @rayredacted thing I have ever seen. These are two of the most caring and supportive people you could interact with. I hope this come true for all of you today. #KindnessMatters

Just paid the last of my kidney stone related bills; all told a little under $800.

Such a relief to have that over with.

I appreciate all the well wishes; it really meant a lot.

@dubiago I totally agree; I just wanted to be clear on that point because I have seen people co-opting "kindness" to excuse bad behavior.

My first time blocking someone here.

Be a dick on your own timeline; not mine.

@dubiago I mostly agree and I try to do a lot of outreach to folks who want to learn how to do better or why somethings are important but at the same time we cannot allow kindness to be the excuse we use to allow those who wish to do harm to do said harm.

There is a balance and where exactly that line is I don't know but I'm doing my best.

@coleens_ I realized I hadn't posted this message in way too long.

@thypon I have to use whatever voice I have to help those I can.

Trans Rights are Human Rights.

Please remember to be kind to our trans friends and family.

They're enduring so much these days; they need our help.

It's 11:50 PM Eastern and I'm glad you are alive.

Thanks for being here with me.

working on some new siderbot upgrades for my Asi robots, the last time I made them they where small warbles but I think ima make them walk next #Technology #robot #steam #wip

Helped my friend with a plasma pistol cosplay prop with an Arduino nano controlling some APA102 LEDs in two strips of 10 side by side.

It animates a slow-to-fast forward sweep along a color axis from blue green to a more teal with increasing brightness until it reaches full brightness and speed which is flashes through 10 times before flashing all the LEDs as if it fired.

I'll post a video of the animation later; not sure how well that description works.

@Jun34u I just bought myself one; they're amazing. 3 of my friends worked together to make it.

Do you like wearable LEDs? My friends made this: luxlavalier.com/

You should see it animated! Beautiful necklace.
