You can lower a rope to a burrito taxi.

AI ruins everything.

Same here. I've been using the one that's downloaded directly to the Pi for network installs.

I'm right there with you but I found our whole blob's closeness to the cryptocurrency blob disheartening.

Ghost energy drinks went up from $25 to $30 for 12 this month.

Can I draw a circle around the cryptocurrency advocates blob and block them all at once?

MIDI Keyboard Doubles As MIDI Thing To Stack Shit On Local woman Nicole Black converted her Novation SL61 MkIII MIDI Controller, originally purchased as a beginner instrument for music production, into a thing to stack shit on, sources report.

Since we're doing MIDI things now, this seems worth posting.

That'd be great! I hit Blue Sky solo around 3 today. Hardly anyone on the trail. It's been an annual tradition for a few years now.

bike trails are the same.

@pinkcurmudgeon.bsky.social Imagine how much beer we could boot leg in the 1920s if we had a DeLorean and a flux capacitor!

Is there a dot loser TLD yet? I hope Sub Pop Records controls it. Or Beck.

I bought an Adcom CD changer right out of college. It broke but I still have an Adcom amp and preamp from the same era. Lol.

That seems accurate! Same here. There's a patch of trail in the shade on the north facing side of the mountain that should be solid glaze death ice from January through March. It was dry dirt today.

selfie, sleeveless flannel, full face helmet, backpack, rescue knife, blue skies, pine trees, bare rocks, and a bright yellow green steel mountain bike.

Another 18 C day in winter in Colorado. This is at 2100 m. There should at least be some packed ice and snow from the last snow. There isn't.

Inflation definitely isn't under control. Safeway raised a case of Odell beer from $36 to $42 and my breakfast burritos from $2.99 to $3.49 each.

It's the frustrated AI banging it's head on the wall.

All the code, PCB, and enclosure design files are already on GitHub. Good luck sorting it all out tho. Hoping to get the blog post with detailed instructions and photos up in a few weeks. These things take time to photograph and write.

a bunch of dev boards connected together with a bunch of different colored wires. The primary development board is a raspberry pi pico mounted on an expansion board with lots of pins and screw terminals. To the left are two bright red geckodrive raptor stepper motor drivers that are just mounted to same frame as pico dev board. To the right is a novation launchpad mini mk3 midi controller with the top row of user keys lit up in red. Near it is a very small speaker and two 3D printed enclosures that will eventually house all the electronics. One is gray with a yellow lid with a red grill and the other is flat gray with slots cut in it.

Work in progress. MIDI controller triggers an RP2040 to play stereo 48 ksps sound effects off a microSD card through an I2S DAC and amplifier.

Jason Veritek went to Georgia Tech while I was there. Cool seeing him play in the majors after seeing him in school. Wikipedia sounds like he's still in Boston so probably not him coaching little league in Atlanta. 😀

same in Fort Collins

That's the big difference between the dot com boom and the AI boom. The dot com boom was accompanied by a myriad of job opportunities for just about anyone with some tech skills. The AI boom, not so much.

Unless you make acquiring the necessary documents free of charge, would this not amount to a poll tax?

could be useful for 3d scanning too

Loot that drops after defeating me:

--pair of ratty Five Ten bike shoes
--SRAM AXS battery (half empty)
--energy drink (also half empty)
--local brewery beer of the month club keyfob (current)

dot com bubble came with lots of job opportunities for everyday tech workers. ai bubble not so much.
