I haven’t found the motivation to finish a @letsdisco.dev blog post I’ve been working on yet, but I have found the motivation to make a fan art cross-stitch recreation of the logo/mascot, “disquinho”

Something I like: Nonograms Katana. Found from a mastodon user noting that one of the pseudonymous users, “tattel”, was a genuinely terrific bird pixel artist just… hiding in the user submitted content of this free to play app. nonograms-katana.com

The only phone game that’s ever held my attention.

Look this isn’t the most important topic but the only thing I have enough confidence to talk about is that the flag drape with the lines perfectly horizontal is incredibly good.

Medium-sized capacitors like the one pictured here plastic sleeves that are presumably heatshrunk around the capacitor to label them. If I wanted to acquire a small number (<100) of these for Art Purposes, any ideas how I might go about that?

I feel like maybe becoming the @mtsw.bsky.social of saying “voters liked trump and wanted him to win the election”

The headline of course has an element of truth, but I can feel the struggle to look away from the fact that most people wanted Trump to win, which is why the most people voted for him.
