  • Analog: Patch Panel (publ. 2025-04-02)

    I was originally planning to put the banana jacks on the lid of the project box (cookie tin) but the lid is not quite large enough, and I was concerned that the weak tin might bend downward after all the holes and weight was added. So instead, I am using an old piece of aluminum bracket that was laying around unused. I was able to put in 48 holes in the bracket, while still having a generous amount of space for labeling. I only have 40 banana jacks, the kind which fit a hole of about 14 or 15 mm, so I need to order some more, or make some smaller jacks I have fit in these larger holes. I installed the 40 I do have.

  • Daal & rice

    This is a simple, tasty, vegan meal - and if your spice rack is already well-stocked, then it's also pretty inexpensive. The better-quality coconut milk will cost a bit more, but to me has a much better consistency and flavour.

    At one point, this was pretty close to a once-a-week meal for me, until I had to stop eating pulses and legumes due to some gut issues. Now that's getting treated, however, so I get to make & eat this dish again!

  • Picture pages 🖼

    I noticed that I was looking at my crawler stats page for random images from Geminispace. Hmm, maybe other people would enjoy that. So starting today, I have a daily post of some of them.

    • Very Tired

      I am exhausted - about to fall asleep, in fact, but I have made a commitment to write *something,* no matter how small, every day.
