Heeeeeeck yeah. The Raspberry Pi Pico-W transplant into the #BlueSCSI was a success. Loading web sites is pretty dang slow, but it tops out at like 60Kb/sec, not much faster than a 56K modem, not that those existed when this #Macintosh IIci was contemporary. I think the disk driver in the image I used is super slow. I remember seeing a warning in the log file. So going to fiddle with it in the near future, but for now just so glad this is working. Such a neat machine.

Starlink is killing Hubble
Something about this plan to move Hubble, didn't make sense. If the telescope still has 10 years of useful life, why the need for SpaceX to boost it's orbit now?
Well it turns out the main thing threatening the utility of Hubble is... wait for it... SpaceX Starlink satellites, which orbit just above Hubble constantly "photo-bombing" the images. Within a few years there will be so many Starlinks that Hubble will be useless.

trauma, bullying, anxiety
On my way home from work on Thursday I found myself giving a group of loud people a wide berth.
They weren't doing anything wrong, they were just enjoying themselves, but I felt so anxious being near them at all and I felt like I was back in school with a group of bullies coming towards me.
It dawned on me that I was reliving the trauma of my childhood. I know that the likelyhood of anything happening now is slim but it was hard to keep my cool.
AAAAA
@VeeTheGator REALLY outdid themselves! They did all of the texturing and mesh edits and now the VR Goon is REAL!
Thank you SO much!
