The smallest thing can make a huge difference. A simple “I really liked this!” in reply to work I’ve shared means more than 100 ⭐️s or ❤️s. A comment doesn’t need to be detailed or articulate to make my entire week.

please. i beg you. we could be #DoingBetterTogether (with apologies, and a request to help me spread this, to @hotdogsladies)

folks, if you like something someone made, tell them with, i beg you, more than a zombie fucking mindless click on a star/heart symbol on your 4k mind control video monitor

podcastey and influencey types are always trying to push for "hey try this one weird trick challenge for a week or month" and i propose, take a month of your online life to 100% replace """liking""" online content and instead replying to it with actual human words

It's Surprisingly Not Bad™

Found a lovely, mint condition, new in box white Gigabyte GZ-X1 case circa 2007 to build my new computer in. This is the first time I have a case that has all the standoffs and all the screws match because they're the ones that came with the case. It's an incredible get to have found this vintage new and I'm thrilled.

In my opinion, this is the true sleeper PC. Something that has IEEE1394 on the front panels but houses something from the DDR4 era. If you bring a beige eMachines to a modern LAN party people will immediately know you messed with it, and that's not what "sleeper" means.

Crossed off my bucket list: Build a computer inside a cardboard box as a makeshift case.

Has anyone ever bought the knockoff Lego sets from aliexpress? I don't mean the generic stuff but rather the listings that straight up copy a set, like this T1 camper van which is a copy of a discontinued Creator set. I'm tempted to get it because it's a tenth of the price for a used one of this set on ebay and I was wondering about the quality. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005731929015.html

got a new midi controller so of course the first thing i do isn't use it for any musical reason but rather write a python script to control the rgb lights in it

We recently got a fairly cheap dehydrator that works better than expected and we're having a lot of fun tossing things into it. Turns out cucumber slices crisp up really easily and become weirdly sweet. Healthy snacks!

I'm good at #photography sometimes.

the dreamcast deserved better
