played with the m5stack cardputer which has a esp32 inside it. Quite fun

Thats really neat. I have not seen one of those before. I am playing around with some feather rp2040s for a project.

ESP 32s are so inexpensive they're now ubiquitous. People are building them into all these other great projects. I do like the M5 stack line of interface products. They seem to have an adapter for everything

Sketching, reading, writing, listening to music... not going out for a walk (because of a broken foot) and the, oh so incredibly exciting reinstallation of my Mac on a new and larger thunderbolt SSD.

Reinstalling macOS has become so slow and such a pain (even more so on an external disc), in comparison with older Mac and compared to reinstalling a Linux system. Luckily, I had a good book to read while I waited for macOS to reinstall itself :p

I've been playing Rogue Trader, really enjoying it so far. I've also gotten myself a harmonica and started learning to play that, I'm still at the nursery rhymes stage but it's good to make music again.

Feels like i've been pushing my other hobby away lately but anyway, had done another 42km round trip with my bicycle, my rear rim cracked on me(RIP well-used 15 years old wheel), and now i'm attempt to build a new wheel myself because i can't find a 48 spoke rim being sold anywhere before the next planned trip exploring a beach town this weekend

My current computer's HDDs are on their way out, so I was looking online for a new one. This computer has been such an amazing gaming rig that has provided ample fun experiences. The new one that I'm looking at is the most expensive one that they have in stock at the store, but I have the money and it's a good deal for what it is.

Other than that, I've been emulating PS3 games via RPCS3, and recently finished Sonic Unleashed. That game is just eye candy, and looks even better in 4K! 😃

Started to work a little bit more on my drawing today, too!
