my new desk has a pegboard, so I finally have a place to hang my pin sash!

on the desk are various computer things and other knickknacks. among them: an Apple Extended Keyboard II, a PS Vita, a transformer (Bumblebee!) and a Shadow the Hedgehog cup with pens in it.
Hung from the pegboard is a blue strip of fabric with mostly video game themed pins stuck to it

finally took the time to rewire the pickups on the 70s Italian electric piano I bought a while ago. soldered some breadboard connectors to them so that I could easily test different arrangements, and figured out a wiring that got rid of some annoying high pitched humming!
A breadboard with wires coming from the electric piano’s four pickups plugged into it from the right, and a chonky headphone jack on the left.
Plugged into the headphone jack is a portable guitar amp I’ve been using for testing.

Disregard the Raspberry Pi Pico and motor controller board that are also on the breadboard, those are from an unrelated project

spoilers for the blog I’m currently setting up. can you tell I read a lot of Pratchett?
Screenshot of a blog post reading

“Note: Since AllocatorAdaptor holds a pointer to an Allocator, and can be copied, I should probably make Alloc() and Free() thread safe when I implement the Allocator interface for real. But surely I can get away with just being very careful, and/or using only a single thread!”

The end of the sentence refers to a footnote:
“No, this isn't foreshadowing”

That footnote refers to a second footnote, this one in italics: “Yet.”

I‘ll start with cleaning the dampers (the plastic doohickeys that oress down on each tine as soon as you release the corresponding key). There’s only about 70 of these, and after some searching I found an ultrasonic cleaner that could fit several at a time without costing an arm and a leg
