Plastic pins in starter cables can snap and make everything fly all over the engine and hit you almost in the eye. Ask me how I know. So I did some #DIY and fixed the clamps (and trained the grip strength in my hands). Also wanted to bolt down the teeth, but when I drilled one hole it occurred to dumbass me that an exposed bolt isn't really safe, so I just applied some glue instead.

Physical media has been dead for years now, hasn't it? You always need to download something after inserting the disc. I've been buying discs until now, but realised years ago, I wouldn't be able to play those games once the servers are offline. Unless I keep every installed game on my harddisk.
Added my new Logitech Ergo S to my setup #DeskSetup #3DPrinting

@kimlockhartga I thought I could check Killer Frog. But it says fog... :(

My colleagues talked about eating a lot of eggs today. And now I'm seeing this random meme...

This picture looks 3d...
My kids didn't put away their toys...
Added metal strip, underside and skirts to my #DIY #Boardgametable. Some bolts are sticking out, because I'm a sloppy worker. And I was 4 screws short, because I'm working with half a plan, that changes every time. But all in all I made some progress.

@coldkennels I'm glad we got Hornbach. They sell screws, bolts and other hardware by weight or number (depends on the product). They have everything for most jobs in or around the house.
Took me three days to get Matter over Thread working on my #HomeAssistant. Bought a #ZBT-2 but sent it back, because it didn't work and bought a #Sonoff MG24. But it was the fault of the VM where HA was running in on my #TrueNAS server. Virtual NIC's don't play well with ipv6. So decided to move HA from my IOT network to my General network. I also missed the step syncing my credentials (whose idea was it to put that in the "Troubleshoot" menu?? Ok, probably was a logical place).
The Algorithm decided I needed to see this. Frankly, judging by the fucking state of the world, I think the whole world needs to see it...

I'm a weirdo, so here's my number.

Reading #TheBible. I'm only at page 8 and Cain already fucking killed his brother, just because God, the psycho, didn't like Cain's offerings. Probably shouldn't have made them in his own image...
So, with a medical mask you can't breath, but if you are marching for white power with underwear wrapped around your face, breathing is fine...
Because I'm a dumb fuck, I accidentally hit the bottom of my table leg with my router. I'm patching it up now. Hope it's gonna look ok. #BoardgameTable #DIY
Had this idea for years in my head (yes I know it's cheating, but sometimes I just need an hour extra parking time). And now they made it. Story of my life. But sometimes I just can't get myself to start creating from an idea...
Glued up 2 legs for my #DIY #Boardgametable. Also made some brackets to prevent bolts to widen the holes in the wood. There should be no wiggle in the legs, but in time legs can wobble because the holes in the wood just erode.
Welcome home, #ArtemisII crew!
Still the best music video I ever made (view on mute, because I couldn't sing. And still can't). Made it with the Barbies that were in the mess my kids made in the dollhouse:

I'm at a theme park with the family where you can get free fries, snacks, water ice popsicles and lemonade. So we all stuffed ourselves with multiple servings of those after we did all the rides. And back at the tree cabin we had a little bag of (our own) chips each. Tomorrow idem. Kids love it.
I hate religion, but choosing between religion and a fucking braindead piss stain, I choose the side of religion.
I was on vacation for the last three days. Now I'm back. Anything fun happened?
Just saw #TheCreator. Awesome looking movie with a great story. Special effects are the best I've seen and shot on location in beautiful places. The kid actor is excellent. Very on topic now that a.i. is turning everything to shit.
Got my #Ostation 2 Pro. I hope it will solve my battery problem (babysitting charging batteries while they are charging).
Here I am in a heatwave, because of climate change, trying to stop it by sucking my drinks through a fucking disintegrating paper straw... While A.I. is using all the water and electricity and big companies are polluting more in a day than I could in a year.
My middle daughter made this (stuffed controller and a heart with a star and the text "Daddy, = the best!", just because I had to go to the hospital for a little eye surgery. She must have gotten that from my wife, because she sure as hell didn't get it from me. Makes me feel better already.
Super Mario Galaxy, Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter movies in one year? Let's fucking goooooooooo!!!!!
Finished #Lego #Bumblebee. Robot mode looks ok. Back of the car mode is not completely accurate.
Basically me. But some things I learned to mask.
