Do you have a mouse in the cabinet? When our cats start acting similarly, I've found a mouse or a stink bug or something rattling around that I can't hear but they're all over it. In fact, the Gus pic on the little window stool I posted awhile back? Yeah. He's looking at a cold stunned wasp.

Do you have Ski available to you as well? It's kinda like if you made mountain dew with less industrial ingredients and more fruit juice. I don't know if the same place makes them, but those are the two main indie sodas I see here in southern Indiana.

As a former Field Notes sub, these are definitely fun too. Some are lined, some have graph paper dots. Would make a lovely Christmas gift...

It bugs me that you can't replace cells too! I took apart a dead battery at work last Friday and sourced some new cells. Who knows if I can actually get it to fly, but we're gonna try. 👍

This is kind of interesting, to me anyway. This battery my buddy brought in works with both 18V tools/ chargers *and* 60V tools/chargers. Somewhere along the line, that epoxy covered board is putting these 15 batteries in a big series conga line (3.7V*15=55.5V, but I guess that's Dewalt for 60)...

It's a trip to go to school to learn how to fix stuff and in less time than it takes to have a career, the industry decides collectively that things should no longer be repairable.

I started playing @kenlowery.bsky.social's Wayfarer I this evening with an old friend. Spent a ton of time the past couple of days reading up on the Voyager missions and being inspired by what an incredible feat of engineering and planning they were/ are. I'm the satellite. Here's my first "entry."

Well, it was Long Legged Larry on the back of a steed,
Leapt up yelling "Jordan!" Kiss the girl on the cheek.
Touch down safe, show the lady back to her peeps,
If you listen real close, you can still hear the streets.
Go Larry, go Larry, go, go, go Larry.

Finally wrapped up the work project. Customer's stoked, positive vibes all around. Tricky job; basically gave an old museum display a brain transplant from board-level stuff to a plc/ smart relay. Lotta boring details, but here's the documentation I did so I don't forget how it works.

First, that dude was 14 when American Beauty debuted-the idea he was clocking that film as opposed to The Phantom Menace, The Matrix, Blair Witch, et fuckin al is laughable. Secondly, and more importantly, OF COURSE PEOPLE THOUGHT IT WAS WEIRD, FFS.
