One I remember reading a while ago “your boyfriend looks like he drops common loot when he dies”

You can also use a tap as a lathe threading tool if it’s got the tooth spacing you want, and the diameter is bigger than any of the dies you have

Real machinists will be sad with you if you do this

(Don’t blame me I saw This Old Tony do it)

I thought I knew something once but it was just cramp

No way that’s a 25 year old man…

Entertaining timeline combo

In the Tira Mesa obviously

Looked it up - dialectical behaviour therapy, apparently

Dammit

Okay imagine there’s a semicolon there instead

“In the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very unhappy and has been widely regarded as a bad move.”

Man I’d love to have a spare £850 too

An oyster

The town I grew up in is famous for them, we even learned about them in school but I’d never tried one

Finally decided to just before I moved away for university and eugh, salty mucus-y blob, had to spit it out again, poor lil guy

I built this

It’s a light-up LED calendar using an esp32 driving 8 max7219 chips to show the current date as well as some animations and a clock when you push a button (Somewhat inspired by Simone Giertz’s one of course)

I’m a woodworker more than an electronics guy so I’m much more pleased with the case than the insides, though it did mean I designed my first PCB. SD card at the top stores some WiFi and time zone config data as well as the animations, esp uses an NTP library to get the current date & time and write it out to the display.

I also always wear the arms from two different sets of armour - makes me less likely to mix them up

Probably AI, based on how none of the armour makes sense

Nice

In my experience basically everybody in Scandinavia speaks English, you’ll be fine
