We are giving a tech talk at @hackadayofficial.bsky.social Supercon with @dr.supersat.phd in a few weeks 🩷
What happens when your body is the dev board? Dive into the wild world of biohacking, rogue experiments, and deeply questionable decisions in the name of science, curiosity, and chaos.

This year was quite ambitious for me. I hand assembled 250 of those. 🀣 Look for me next year, I make different ones every DragonCon!

Oh good to know. I haven’t noticed any strain from blue lights yet. Like you, I’m just happy to finally be able to see!

I have a microscope which has been a lifesaver for my eyes.

It was the worst. Even threading a needle on my sewing machine was so frustrating.

Soldered something for the first time today since my cataract surgery. I’m super happy with the 2 color led technique and to be able to actually see out of my right eye finally! Those 1204 side LEDs and some hot glue magic for diffusion are my happy place right now. It’s soo cute! #PCBart

We went to the champagne region outside of Paris, that was pretty. We were able to go in the caves where they make and store champagne. The entire process was fascinating.

I saw that neck fan in the photo that’s why I asked. It was sooo cold when I was there. I drank so much hot chocolate this trip.

Clearly tourism and social media wasn’t a thing in 1974, look how empty it is in front of the Eiffel Tower when my mom was there.

My mom passed away in 2021. My dad recently digitized all my momβ€˜s old photos from when she traveled. And now I’ve been going around the world retaking photos in the same places she stood. 51 year difference at Notre-Dame and the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

High risk hobby. The stairs for some of those fabric shops were death traps.
