Cis he, Canadian, kind of a nerd, bad at shitposting.
Likes electronics, drums, coding, cooking, bicycles, and books.
@sixohsix Have good boots. Seriously, bad footwear will make you miserable.
Got a 3D printer a few days ago; will be printing parts and things to avoid buying more stuff... the justification is weak but I’ll take it.
Pineapple is still a thing.
It’s been a while... oh good still the same here (at first glance)
Hi mastodon, I haven’t visited in a while because... I forgot.
Not about the neat people, but about the app, and the website... does that make sense?
"So i just came out to my dad abt being #nb, and he said something really wise about names, i think.
He said “Gifts are not obligations. You give things to people, and you hope they like them. And your name was a gift from us to you. If it doesn’t work for you anymore, you’re not obligated to keep it.”
and i just thought maybe other people could use hearing something like that."

@crecca no I just have to be awake and in public
I just spent far too much time poking at (and with) my new oscilloscope. I have to work tomorrow :(. This is a problem.
@rey my cat friend was also pretty excited by the new box. I was starting to worry that it wouldn’t get here before the companies scopemonth 2018!
this is the best gif i've ever made btw
A couple more pictures of the #bookbinding project I did yesterday and this morning with @cypnk ’s lab notebook as inspiration. As I said yesterday I’ll want to do this again with more precision and better quality materials, but this gives me an idea of size and scale starting points :)

@lilith @luka @cypnk That's pretty neat, I might build a contraption like this gentleman has: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXLG9mMfc5k
@lilith @cypnk I did a kind of kettle stitch, no cover yet. And I’ll probably want to do this again with better paper and some more precision.

I’d forgotten how relaxing bookbinding can be!
@cypnk I like very small grids so I printed out in landscape and made some signatures for an initial trial binding to see how it feels.

Look around you. Look around you. Just look around you.
Have you figured out what we’re looking for yet?
That’s right: the fundamental contradictions inherent to capitalism.
@cypnk That looks pretty neato! I think I'm going to give it a try, Thank you 😃
Facebook isn't listening to you, they're doing something vastly more complex and creepy!
Set up my Chromebook with Debian this time and for the first time ever went for an ~Aesthetic~
