Got back the 2008 iMac8,1 I loaned my niece a long time ago. This is the computer I bought to write Air Hockey just before the App Store opened. Feels like I should keep it… I’m pretty sure it’ll be horrible no matter what I do though. Hmm.

Nice scam you're running Geniuslink by automatically changing my account from free one to a paid one then not allowing me to cancel my account because I have a "balance" with you. I sent an email. Zero out my balance and cancel my account.

I just finished a giant nerd-level writeup on all the telescope upgrade work I've been doing over the past few months. Short version: new guts/new pier/telescope works great. Super long version: astronomynightly.com/2024/01/20/ons…

My son started a gaming YouTube channel & would love some views. He’s doing all the planning, capture, editing & posting himself, so it’s lots of great learning for him. Help him out please? youtu.be/VlOcuSYR3U4

Apparently Microsoft auto-“upgraded” Outlook to include ads in your mail list that look just like other emails. Really? Please tell me MSFT isn’t scraping my emails now so it can pitch me target ads.

The Orion Nebula, Messier 42. I gathered almost 20 hours of data from my back yard for this and processed it using an HOO palette. #astrophotography #astronomy #astronomyphotography

Shine! This was fun to develop. I just launched my new soldering kit, the Soldering101 Shine. It’s a custom hexagon(!) PCB with all the electronic parts you need. It has a cool 3d printed soldering cradle and a case. Check it out & spread the word! loftcnc.etsy.com/listing/178759…

!!! If you have a Bambu 3d printer, don't update your firmware to the upcoming version 1.08. They're locking down their printers to only work with their software and accessories. Bambu's firmware announcement: blog.bambulab.com/firmware-updat…

Here's a little "Do Not Update Firmware!" sign I made to 3D print for my Bambu printers. If you have a Bambu printer, I hope this helps! thingiverse.com/thing:6919009
