Finally started playing Skate Story and not only is it one of the most beautiful games you'll ever see but it FEELS great. I wouldn't normally gravitate toward a skateboarding game but it's very accessible, get it while it's on sale!

Looked into getting a MEM vending machine which is very reasonably sized but the bidding starts at $1500! So we decided if we can raise $1000 we’ll cover the rest. Donate here! venmo.com/code?user_id...

Looking into making a giant trackball. Something like 8-10” in diameter. Anyone have references for something like this? Would prefer to use rotary encoders instead of an optical mouse so thinking roller bearings on the underside. Sketch by @just404it.bsky.social

We're overdue for ConEd oversight. We lost power for 48 hours in January and our bill is HIGHER than usual? How do they keep getting away with this? @chiosse.bsky.social @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social i'm sure we're not the only ones affected by loss of revenue due to ConEd's negligence.

Saw a review from @aftermath.site for the Echo Mini mp3 player and I’m excited to get back to iPod life. This feels like the best way to move away from Spotify, plus all of us geriatric millennials have huge music libraries from the early 00s already

Something I love about @wonderville.nyc is the interesting ways we find solutions to seemingly simple problems. We lost the remote to the projector in the bar and can't seem to find a replacement, so we launched a server and now have a web app to turn the projector on and off via localhost.

It’s unbelievably hard to buy a dumb monitor. I’m searching for a 55” monitor with HDMI that turns on automatically and doesn’t connect to the internet or have any apps. Just play the signal. Do these even exist anymore?
