here's a blast from the near-past

JET SET RADIOOOOOO

when i send myself a test email

looking at circuit diagrams for vga -> HDMI converters and wondering if I can build one without setting my hair on fire.

it looks like misumi has them but requires a quote; that ain't gonna be cheap

also, all the ones on mcmaster-carr are also imperial measurements. is this a thing?

trying to find metric parts on amazon is frustrating; seeing a bunch of steel rods listed as 100mm (4"). 100mm is not 4". It's close, but it's not. These ones I ended up with are 4" and _not_ 100mm. really frustrated.

*clears throat for 6 minutes*

legend of zelda is a metroidvania

cheese man from buffy the vampire slayer as jungian archetype

borrowing a new macbook from IT to do some testing; this keyboard is about the least satisfying thing i've ever typed on

i don't wanna toss them though, so i'm powerin' through these last few.

just ate some jellybeans after seeing someone eating them, and thinking they looked good. turns out i don't like jellybeans.

rememberin' the time i discovered the previous owner of my house had shoved two gloves and a number of pieces of wire coat hanger into the basement drain, and gettin' mad all over again
