@nerdparker.com Can you check in on Nala Se (Foil)? Looks like an off-by-one error on the card number. (If there is a more official way to bring this up, LMK.)

Tristan's 3d printer is getting use. He helped me design this clip specifically for our windows and our light show. Couple tweaks yet and then 20 more will get printed.

Rainy and windy regatta today in Indianapolis. Here to support the Wayland Rowing team @ the Indy Junior Sprints 2025.

This thing showed me Mars, and its ice caps. Amazing. We also got to see Jupiter, Io, and Sirius. The open air planeta(r)ium was pretty epic as well.

Fun day today in AZ with @amy.kittel.social and the kiddos.

Got on some UTVs, went to an aquarium, and had other random activities.

Tristan pulled an awesome looking showcase card at his prerelease event for Star Wars: Unlimited; Sabine's Masterpiece.

New @meshtastic.org node online here in Beaver Dam. 📡

Hoping to have a solar 🌤️ node placed in a week or two.

Starting to gather pieces for a new #TrueNAS home NAS build. I want to offload files from local computers but not off-premises. Also I want to pull some stuff that's currently off-premises (cloud) back on-premises.

Some pieces of this build will be reclaimed from prior devices; others will be new.

I did this last summer. Basically, anything that could be practically ethernet-connected now is. Went from just having access points wired in to having almost all our "staticly positioned" compute and storage connected via ethernet. Love it. Screenshot doesn't include five IP cameras, also wired.

Tristan got Trinity's enchanted Elsa graded as a gift. 🎁

This is Trinity's first TCG slab and she pulled this from one of her first packs many moons ago.
