An embroidered patch shows a scene in space with an asteroid hurtling towards earth and a Tyrannosaurus rex (also in space) with its mouth open, either screaming or trying to bite the asteroid (I don't know). Along the top of the patch it says "NEO SURVEYOR." At the bottom of the patch it says, "NEVER AGAIN."

This unofficial patch for the NEO Surveyor project that my husband brought home from work is sending me.

i drew a Far Side cow using Magneto-style powers to levitate some cow tools; nothing could possibly stop them. a barn stands in the distance.

Once, technology solved problems. People liked having problems solved, so they liked technology.

Tech execs started to think of that sentiment as their due. So when they stopped solving problems, and people stopped liking them, they became outraged. "How dare you not love whatever we give you?"

I printed it and stuck self-adhesive copper tape to it. There's copper tape with conductive adhesive so you can add multiple overlapping pieces and it counts as one conductive surface.

Then I used the second part of the mold to shape the copper, so that it sticks inside the recessed traces.

Then I used sandpaper to file away at the raised ridges. The copper traces are now electrically independent of each other. Done!

But if I want, I can remove the extra copper tape.

The companion mold at the bottom. This second 3D-printed part pushes the copper tape down into the recessed trace channels so it conforms to the shape. The two parts sandwich together with alignment spikes to keep everything registered.

I made a tool that turns PCB designs into 3D-printable molds. you sandwich copper tape between the parts, sand the ridges, and you have a real working PCB. no etching, no chemicals. I am losing my mind

If you see something from these accounts that is not pre-scheduled it will either be the most important message we have ever sent or a complete accident so stay tuned for that.

My adolescence can be precisely described by the fact that I learned to touch-type by hanging out in a busy X-Files chat room on CompuServe where I had to break typing speed records to get my deep and insightful comments in before the conversation moved on

really enjoy that the bloke who won two golds on the luge is someone who was a national level taekwondo fighter until he got injured and then a government figure stepped out the shadows and said "let me tell you about project going down a hill really fast"
