Menu board? Specifically one of these kind, with cling letters. Sure, I'd probably have to buy extra letters, but god, I want this kind of sign to make it say dumb stuff all the time. Pointless statistics. Fees for absurd requests. Days since last party wipe.

Soda machine? Well, specifically one that dispenses cans. Not terribly concerned over the exact style, but would lean towards retro if I had a choice. 70s or 80s-style. Wouldn't even mind if I had to have quarters handy for it.

when i think about the things I Really Want (beyond "constant income with no job needed" and "a bigger, more private living space"), two things always come to mind:

- Soda machine
- Diner menu board

And another: the Roland DXY-1150. It lacks electro static paper hold and coordinate display but pretty much the same as the 1200. This was began life as a cable label printer. Today it’s my specialty plotter for floppy disks and the like.

This person has a YouTube channel full of art installations and homemade musical instruments. This is a really fun, fascinatingly simple project where they attached a ziptie to a cheap motor, mounted it in the middle of some wooden pegs, and then drove the motor from a cheap Korg drum machine. They spend two minutes exploring all the different emergent Things you can do with this little setup.

@aaronsgiles Yikes, didn't realize this was a thing, let alone that it could be turned off - have done so now though. Thank you for calling attention to it.

This is a prime example of a "feature" that I'm sure someone thought was a brilliant idea, but actually gets in the way of normal use and is highly annoying.

For example, I'm copying/pasting a bunch of CRCs, and some of them apparently look like dates, so whenever I copy one that looks like that, I get a "helpful" popup suggesting that I create an Outlook appointment. πŸ™„πŸ™„

Definitely should not be on by default.
