Firmware developer, gamer, nerd, general weirdo. Likes dogs, loves cats. Progressive boomer. Self-diagnosed high-masking autistic. He/him. Profile pic is a cartoonified selfie of me and my daughters in a coffee shop.

I make pretend airplanes for a living.
Done! Also Darken.

PDFs because the bookshelf I no longer own doesn't have room.

Me, sitting on the can, starkers, waiting for metabolism to finish its job so I can start my shower:

Yeah, shoes. That'll be the priority here.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.

Also: shooting mice with a cannon.

...explaining why his idea for a backwards-compatible interface would require his firmware to do more gymnastics than he ever thought. Not egregious, but more complex than he realized because he had no idea I was multiplexing two switches through a diode array to create a reverse BCD input.

Why, yes, I did grow up in the woods in semi-rural Pennsylvania and now live in urban Sacramento. Why do you ask?

I really miss blue jays. Even if they dump all the other seeds on the ground looking for the sunflower seeds.

(That's OK, I like juncos, too.)

No, scrub jays aren't blue jays just because they're a blue color. Fricken Californians.

Dammit, now I'm gonna smell like coffee all day.

I mean, there are worse things I could smell like, but still.

I just WASHED these damn pants.

I might come up with more abbreviated Alt Text later, but meantime you just have to suffer.

We need your help!

Democrats in CA already have the most gerrymandered maps in the country, and Republicans in Indiana can do something about it. However, they are REFUSING to give Republicans a voice in Congress.

Tell State Senators in Indiana they need to FIGHT for fair maps: [link]

I want coffee but my daughter usually makes the coffee and I'm not sure I remember how to use the measuring spoon. Do you hold it with the open side up? I'm confused.

In case you're wondering why I'm getting so pissed off about something so trivial, keep in mind that my brain is almost 70 years old and doesn't work any more and all I have is muscle memory. When you fuck with shit you break my muscle memory. This is not a thing that fills me with joy.

Fun fact: When I did a web search for "lo and behold", the first thing Google's AI told me was that "low and behold" is a misspelling blah blah. I didn't search for "low and behold" you fucking overclocked abacus.

Yeah, I'm fucking grumpy.

The result so far: got it working in test. It's pretending to be an aileron trim DON'T JUDGE 😉
