  So it turned out my design won’t work in the real world: I forgot about the massive current requirements.

  In his latest #rant, the idiot in charge of the U.S. decided to claim that #trans people aren't into chip manufacturing. He took the Biden-era CHIPS and Science act, and made it about trans people, claiming our community isn't smart or interested in chiming manufacturing, and that's why it failed. Fuck you Donnie. You clearly never heard of the late, great #LynneConway Read a fucking history book. You and all you #MAGATs.

  Ok #startrek folk. #Klingon culture rewards those who live an honorable and worthy life. It's heavily focused on military, battle, loyalty. We know farmers exist. We know scientists exist. And in some parts of trek we see the inevitable clashes that occur. But we also know that #Opera is important to Klingon culture. Except, I've never really seen the pipeline to Klingon music or culture explored thoroughly. Is it honorable for a Klingon to enter the musical career? Must they fir...

  I have never designed a PCB before, so, please tell me if this is okay. It's pretty simple: a STAC64 header (male pins) breaking out to discrete pads (which I will attach a short pigtail to that in turn attaches to a STAC64 female plug. There's a CAN H and CAN L breakout. TLDR: I'm meant to be working on a new review that requires installation of something that attaches to the CAN bus using.. wait for it... WIRE TAP SNAPS. 1) those fail and 2) I have had some bad experiences...

  I used to work with Joel at HighGearMedia… Holy crap is this scary. He and his wife were ambushed by four cops, guns ready, because #flock didn’t read a manufacturer license plate on a press car right. As I just told him, had it been a black or brown person behind the wheel or an LGBTQIA+ person, this story would have ended very differently.

  What's that Samsung? You want us to pay you $5 a month to access our own data from products we'd already purchased? Hmm. Well isn't that special? https://github.com/QuiteYellow/SmartThings-Local #HomeAssistant #enshittificaiton #righttorepair

  Please tell me this is *normal* for someone with #AuDHD? #Neurodivergent Xmas/New Year - I end up coming up with and making progression on all kinds of awesome projects. Partly because I have two weeks off. Then the projects lay half-finished for LITERALLY MONTHS BECAUSE... January/February - Stress about doing taxes and doing all the forms (I run my own company) March - Finish off the taxes. And start the gardening. April... Nothing but garden. All the time on the garden channel. M...

  Why do I ALWAYS have to remind myself (because I forget) that I invariably put 1-2 lbs (.4-.9 kg) on when I’ve had a hard workout day previously and my DOMS is severe? Grrr #workingout #health #fitness

  It is May 3. May 3rd. And we hit over 31 Degrees C on our deck this afternoon. I've spent the day getting the greenhouse ready for growing (ie, planting up the plants I am going to keep) - and then I spent time putting down the watering* *Yes, I water my garden. For a few reasons. 1) I grow my own food, and do very carefully controlled restricted watering at night, primarily drip irrigation, around seasonal veg and on our borers. 2) The water helps give us at least some moistur...

  Ah nuts. Guess who has four paws and forgot her heart meds last night? Yup, @QueenieDeerhart. Totally her fault! See, it might be MY handle on #eloton, but it’s totally her picture… right? #invisibledisabilities #lqts. #fursuitfriday

  #FreePlants in #pdxmetro! If your in the greater #pdx area and want free plants HMU. 2026 has been a lot. For a lot of people. I need your help to make it better. I've got a ridiculous number of tomato, cucumber, and tomatillo starts this year — way more than I can ever plant — and I want you to have them. Free. But there is a catch. All of these were started from seed in March, kept in our polytunnel, and have only ever seen a single application of basic fertilizer. That&#3...

  So… #ThePinkNews decided to let #WesStreeting write a pathetic post telling Trans Kids that it gets better after overseeing the #UK’s decimation of #trans health care? That trans people deserve our respect, a “reassuring”, “you matter” piece? A piece that basically says “it’s ok, I’m gay and I know what you’re feeling?” No it’s not. And no you don’t. And respect? After giving us none?! After witnessing as wait times for adults rise, trans patients get denied health care, and trans unaliv...

  Just going to say it. I'm an immigrant. I'm a triple-citizen. I'm queer. I'm trans. I work in an industry that is hated by the current administration. I've not held back on telling the truth about them. I am not doing okay. I am allowing myself to not be okay. I'm not going to mask. I'm at home. I'm safe. I'm with my wife. I don't need to mask for her, and she doesn't for me. So, I'm just going to have a quiet evening, and be okay with not...
