A friend is moving and getting rid of stuff, they asked if we wanted some books. Of course I said “yes!”
Friends, they dropped off what is close to every @stephenking.bsky.social book?
There’s also some from Richard Bachman for some reason? Weird.

Back on my bullshit. This is not my work btw, just what I found after opening up a broken switch I bought for cheap due to a broken charge port.
If I can get this working again I’ll feel like a god, haha.

Where are the #turntable nerds at? This a “Hitachi P/E 3044” I found at an online auction and I can’t find much about it. I found a forum post saying it’s “essentially” a Dual 1225?
It looks like a solid Frankenstein record player sold in Canadian markets?

Hey #linux friends I just need a little hint for when Grub won’t boot after decrypting master key.

I picked this up today at a used book store on a whim because Le Guin rarely misses. 30 pages in and I’m really liking it! I’ve only read a few Sci-fi books from her, the fantasy setting is refreshing!
Yay, I hope this pulls me out of my yearly reading slump 🙂

Back to making silly mistakes with electronics.
Got this for cheap on eBay, wouldn’t power on. After looking inside it clearly had water damage.
I don’t know what to do about that, but it MIGHT be something I can fix. Well will see! #ConsoleRepair

This is very serious. I’ve never seen anyone else wearing something like it in public, a one of a kind garment. Purchased at a music festival in 2021.

Sutherland is like one of those little parasites that replaces the tongue of a fish. Like, yeah it’s technically a part Saskatoon but it’s also clearly grafted on and wasn’t a part of the original plan.

Not actually a very good photo, but this was taken on a hacked Cannon PowerShot back when I was experimenting with long exposure settings and manual HDR processing.
