I spent my day today setting up our new booth at the electric crocodile in Chattanooga tn.

Our stuff is on the yellow slatwall. The other toys are from Green Door Toys.

Hulloo #Comedon neighbahs. I cribbed everything but the last paragraph below from @greenpepper22.

Anyone and everyone is welcome join! Hate speech is not

On a personal note, I've spent the week talking to lawyers, and permitting people, and loan officers, and lions, and tigers, and bears, oh my. And my wife has indicated that as good as comedy movies are for brains, she thinks mine might benefit from leaving the house. If I do I'll be watching in spirit.

boom goes the thunder.

here’s hoping the laser doesn’t lose power!

one of my rules of thumb for new project idea viability is to ask myself “is it possible that this would turn the Ellijay Makerspace into a Superfund site?” and if the answer is affirmative even slightly I should probably bin that idea.

it was a pretty good year for fashion

A lousy year for rock and roll

SDL2 has been ported to MacOS 9 (and earlier) - opens up a lot of development options for games, apps, etc on these older systems

Alright I've done it--here's a large collection of short beeps and boops from different video games suitable for using for notification sounds for your phone or whatever else. Over 500 tiny noises curated by me that aren't too long or too horrible to hear beeped at you all day. Enjoy!

tracking on a package from China just changed status to “international flight has departed to US” and I cheered like I was one of those people who cheers when the plane they’re on lands. this is such a goofy fucking timeline.

walked one of my peers and comrades, Eli, through some of the new equipment on the other end of the building (Eli roasts coffee with us) and once again it accentuated how much stuff we’ve got going on, which I never seem to actually notice until I take forty-five minutes and run someone through just the high points of the recent additions. he was absolutely blown away by our injection molding setup, having worked an injection molding job for a few years, and as impressed with the new laser as I continue to be. good times!

Living in a world of nation states and global orders, weʼve scaled up a lot of terminology born in an era of face-to-face interactions between individuals and small groups — largely uncritically.

Consider the idea of “trusting” an HTTPS certificate authority. We supposedly “trust” them to secure our financial interactions. But most people arenʼt even aware they exist.

What if your CA was someone you knew personally, and they only vouched for websites owned by people they knew personally?

Somebody is leaving love notes at the grocery store and I am *finger snaps* HERE for it!

I've put all of my uBlock Origin additions into this gist:

https://gist.github.com/mhoye/dcc2c2febeba230ca7ceb25c970390a1

It causes mild inconvenience on Google properties, and breaks Twitter and Facebook entirely which I consider a net benefit.

Beyond that: the web snaps into place for me. It's _fast._ Even on slow machines or ancient hardware. The web is insanely fast, if you cut out the sludge.

Works with Firefox+uBlockOrigin. If you're using Chrome or Safari, you should probably do something about that.

Feedback is welcome.

good afternoon fediverse!

so, our laser-engraved aluminum molds finished whilst we slept last night and they look great!

Interesting effort to make standard/cheap electrical boxes into a platform of sorts.
