I've stopped using AI or proxies to lazily inquire about job vacancies.
It's amazing what you can do when you apply yourself.
Hats off to Amazon for really leaning in to this Time Travel theme!
I forgot exactly what I trained my dog to do, but it will come to me.
Ugh, Vampires....
I don't know how they can look in the mirror
@grajohnt trying to make two extra ones so that you and Paul (Pimoroni) can get one. You both wanted to do the workshop and just missed it so happy to try and help out.
@grajohnt If you want one and bring some cash, I might have enough spares to put a full matrix kit together for you.
I can't get you into the workshop, but I can give you the code examples & stuff.
@grajohnt sold out in minutes. Hopefully there will be another.
Donkey Kong was released closer to the start of WWII than it was to today.

Christina seems to have let herself go a bit
Buddy, I wouldn't touch your three and a half metres with a ten foot pole
@zackstern Yep. I will fix this up soon. It already has a reliable switching power supply in it
@zackstern I need to check all the sockets. It will sometimes play for a few minutes before crashing or resetting.

Hey Galaga, are you okay?

I just got the keys to the ex-GAP for #Teardown2025. The dying mall/liminal space vibes are excellent.
We have a little over a week to fill it with cool projects, hacker art, machines, retro computers, a fully equipped make + hack space, and four tracks for talks, workshops and panels.
It's my second year running the show and I'm considerably less terrified than I was last year. I want to try and have fun!
@MLE_online oof, well godspeed and I hope you get through it unscathed
@MLE_online There's still plenty of time for cancellations
Apparently, "this isn't the proper way to do a colonoscopy"
