  • First Post!!1

    Getting back into the small web. Like the idea of journaling here. Takes me back to a simpler time. :)

  • Analog: Voltage Reference (publ. 2025-03-14)

    The new breadboards haven't arrived yet, but I found an extra one, so I began putting together the voltage reference module. I am still following the Grappendorf schematics. Here is the photo of the circuit: [...]

  • Fado on Bandcamp

    I heard about Lina_Raül Refree, yesterday, bought it, and I've been listening to it. Today I'm listening to Fado Camões by LINA.

  • Georgia Harmer, Islington, 2025

    First time I've seen Georgia Harmer perform, very much visually the singer-songwriter with a guitar but the lighting built steadily to create this halo of light around her. She has a beautiful voice and the songs seem at literally first listen to be direct, lyrical and staright-forwardly structured.

  • dream journal: mar 15, 2025

  • Cody Rhodes vs. Roman Reigns (WWE 04/07/2024)

    John Cena, Místico, Hulk Hogan, Jumbo Tsuruta, Antonio Inoki, Hiroshi Tanahashi, Kazuchika Okada, Mitsuharu Misawa, Cody Rhodes. What do they all have in common?

    They are all babyface aces. Whoever is good on this list is up for contention, and, for lack of a better term, one of them is objectively a bitch. It's Cody, why play pretend? I'm a low voter on Misawa, but at least I like the tag team matches.

  • The Weekend

    My mood is up with the nice weather we've had these past few days. I was off on Wednesday to celebrate the bf's birthday which was a nice, chill day. I definitely wish work weeks were standard with 2 day work, 1 day off mid week, then 2 days on, and 2 day weekend. It breaks up work nicely for me.

• Technology and Free Software

  • app fights and lost hours

    1. For some reason, I'm very aware of the "lost hour" this year. DST always messes with me, and it always takes about a week for me to adjust. This year, however, I get acutely aware we're an hour ahead right around 6:30 pm - when my brain absolutely cannot believe how late it is.

    It might be extra annoying this year because I'd actually started waking up naturally at 5:00 a.m. Standard time. Which is 6:00 a.m. Daylight Time, aka "the time of day my alarm goes off." So instead of having an extra hour to read and work in the morning, I now do not have that. Unless I train my brain to wake up at what it thinks is 4:00 a.m. - which I already know is not going to work.
