R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 10hThe Ziggy’s thing is more of a curated show than what I’m doing, which is more like those car meetups you see in a parking lot somewhere where everyone brings their car to show off. Both have their place. One of the reasons I picked the venue I did is bc it has a monthly electronic show already. 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 19hActually, you know what? You need to start a Modular Washtenaw meetup yourself. (I’m being completely serious) 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 09/10/2026You haven’t lived until you’ve had a thrift shop refuse your furniture donation. (I speak from experience) 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 09/10/2026False, farmers won’t go to the hospital for anything unless they’re dying and you drag them there. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It would have been epic if at the end of the 30 seconds someone shouted, “Hail Satan!.” 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 07/10/2026It’s all the quotable dialog and memorable characters. 100
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I realized yesterday that there’s a 1000% chance that executive leadership at my employer Is going to start (and probably has) saying “Super Intelligence” and I got so preemptively angry about it. 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I wish Teams and Zoom had an option that whenever I drop from a meeting that’s a waste of my time they would broadcast the sound of a telephone being slammed down on the receiver. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 05/10/2026It’s harder to persuade a family member than a friend. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Well you’re just going to have to plan a trip to Austin sometime, aren’t ya? (I suggest late October through April) 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 01/10/2026What the actual fire truck? They would find me absolutely loathsome. I have so many questions but I’m afraid I’ll regret learning the answers. 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Still buzzing from this. It was everything I hoped it’d be. #synthsky #eurorack 151
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 01/10/2026The inaugural Patches & Kolaches Modular Meetup, in Austin, Texas, was a massive success. This will be a monthly event going forward. Apparently I’m now officially an event organizer. 120
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026As an undergrad, I was friends with a fellow transfer student who, near graduation, told me that he should have joined a frat. I tried looking him up a few years ago. I stopped looking when I found his guilty plea in a CSAM case. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I could (and will!) go on… First year is general requirements and intro-to-your major classes. You ain’t learning the deep lore yet. A GPA calculated only from the remaining years is more indicative of your mastery of the specialized knowledge of your major. 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Some parents argue that no freshman GPA grades lowers the value of the degree. And like, I’m a UM graduate. And not one course I took in my first TWO years counted towards my GPA. But I got the same degree as everyone else — because it’s the *last* two years that count. (I was a transfer student) 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Sorry, but I had another thought (my brains full of them some days) 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The comments I’ve been all seem very memeable. Right wing tech-bro: “We need bold innovation in higher education!” (UM attempts to do away with freshman grades) RWTB: “Nooooooo! Not like that! We meant your kids should enroll in the new unaccredited school we’re investing in!” 010

R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Apart from one bedroom where we have a portable AC set up, it hasn’t been cooler than 83° in my house for a week. The portable can’t cool the entire house but I’m hoping that I can make things more bearable by running it in dehumidifier mode. 000

R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Little did I know when I awoke this morning that today’s tasks would include driving an hour and a half to behead seven roosters for a Buddhist and then driving back home. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I’ve never messed around with sampling, but this is begging to be sampled and put to a beat 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Figs are pretty easy to grow if you can keep them from freezing in winter. If you ever visit my wife will hook you up all sorts of cuttings so build yourself a greenhouse first. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Couple weeks ago there were a lot more on the trees. We have tons of fig trees and most have grafts from multiple varieties. 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Glad to hear that at least there’s a *commercial* incentive to not end humanity. 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 23/09/202694° out and my so’s my AC (out, that is). 85° in the house. Ceiling fans can only do so much. I was hoping to escape to an air conditioned coffee shop for most of the day but my truck has a dead battery from not being driven in two weeks and my wife has the car. 002
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 21/09/2026It’s been a while since I dropped coin for a fancy pedal but you’re tempting me back to the (other) dark side. (Also tempting me: Old Blood Noise’s Parting) 010
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Hegseth sure is interested in the male service member. 000
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Thank you, Mohan. He hadn’t been well for three years due to a stroke and dementia. He died peacefully at home, which was the best we could hope for. Hope you and the family are doing well. 110
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Welp, today I said goodbye to my father for the last time and helped scatter his ashes on the hilltop overlooking the farm where I grew up. 100

R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 18/09/2026? That last sentence makes no grammatical sense. What is the “it” being referred to, and what if it doesn’t *what*? 220
R. Scott @scottpigman.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I’m glad that a few of these brick streets, probably laid down in the 1940s or earlier*, are still around. *my grandfather saw some of these being built in the 40s. 010
