hey mecha, do you think you could beat metal sonic in a 1v1
#mecha sonic#metal sonic#sonic fanart#sonic fandom#welcome back to the worlds worst siblings#also weclome back to: weird written text for characters who dont have normal speech. wehehe#it was fun for fake pep's garbled distorted sounds so i do it again for metal's angry computer noises#metal being mute is such an important part of his character to me.......#the way i see it is like hes perfectly capable of speech he just doesn't have the hardware for it#but he still tries. with his angry computer beep boops. n' those sounds r what the text like this is meant to represent visually#n e way the actual code is just morse but using a couple sets of different symbols.#'' i could run circles around him'' / ''he wouldn't land a hit on me''#mecha knows the audience can't understand metal. but he can#so he's continuing to present his own answer while also sorta underhandedly replying to metal#anyway good ask. they should kill eachother.#they're speed+agility vs. power+defense builds to me. so the real answer for 'who would win'#is whoever manages to stay level-headed and not get pissed off the longest. which could go either way depending on the circumstances.#arting#msab

the comic with fiddlefords rubix cube cage made me think "haha like a saw trap" and then i thought about it for one second longer and um. john kramer is also an old guy who builds weird machines. and now im imagining a scenario in which they interact and fidds is put in a saw trap for whatever reason but nothing happens to him because he just dismantles it. and john and amanda are watching the video feed like 😦
i know like. NOTHING about saw, but its really funny to imagine him just taking everything apart. he stuffs all the hardware into his comically sized pockets and walks away.

literally the only thing my dad does is hurt his back and yell. how am I supposed to buy a gift for someone like that
#he doesnt cook or clean or drink or talk to his children or play video games or wear a suit#and thats like EVERY gift recommendation#he watches tv. i got him a hulu gift card#but WHAT ELSE#he doesn't like fancy coffees or weird foods and i am NOT buying an experience gift#i usually get him like weird jerky from the farmers market bc he'll eat new food if its meat#gift idea for my mom is divorce papers#WAIT he also gambles and drives 2 hours to the casino every 3 days#<3#seriously i would love any gift ideas. i go thru this every year#he has a back massager but idk if there are other weird back pain machines that can help?#he doesn't even grill. all the gift idea lists have shit for ~dads who grill~#he smokes and watches tv and gambles and votes for trump and has a gun collection#help me!!! please#i lied he DOES play video games but he has plenty of shit. the only thing i can think of is that he uses a laptop instead of a pc#but i uh. cannot afford to buy him a pc as a gift lmao#one thing i thought of was making a stupid ''ill build your pc for you and pick out the parts'' coupon but he's shown no desire for a pc yet#and he has a whole as ps5 so like. why would he#HELP#he likes cheese but im saving cheese gifts for my mom#he likes garlic???#oh he likes boats and fishing#but its also winter LMAO#he likes building things too but a hardware gift card that i can afford wouldbe piddly for what he buys#he works on cars sometimes??

IM FREEEEEE
#(FROM PROJECTS)#personal#the engineering chronicles#WILL HOPEFULLY NEVER NEED TO SLEEP THREE NIGHTS ON THE FLOOR OF THE ENGINEERING BUILDING AGAIN!!!#one class the final project was to build a karaoke machine which my partner and i had planned on making look like actual speakers and#microphone but we couldn’t find the stuff in time and her mom made a joke abt singing into hairbrushes and we decided to take that and#run lol we used a pink sparkly makeup box to store our circuit and cut out holes for the speakers and decorated it with makeup and put the#hairbrush mics inside and it was very fun actually and our class voted us as one of the groups to go to project day which was pretty cool!!#project day did get canceled bc of. asnow day which was unfortunate especially considering we stayed up until 4am the night before#preparing our documents for it and trying to perfect the karaoke machine when we could have been putting that time toward project number#2 😐 but whatever we still get our extra credit and i can say i qualified for it so im happy enough#then project 2 was for another class but we’re lab partners in both (+ another guy for this project) and it was digital monster pet so we#made a dragon i was mostly on design so i hand CADed the whole thing which was living hell if i never want to lay eyes on solidworks#again but also he came out very cute after MUCH hasle putting him together with all the wires and components bc our wires from the kit are#so bad they’re constantly getting disconnected from each other which we didn’t know would happen bc the labs we usually do we don’t have to#connect them together like that since you’re not routing them thru bodies etc and they’ve worked great until now but anywya.#i did the lcd faces and the light sensor and a couple other things + a lot of the code was copy and paste from past labs and fitting it to#suit the project but for the most part it was a shit ton of hardware on my end while she and the other guy managed the rest of the code#which i really wish i could have been more involved with but oh well. as it is though he’s my baby i birthed him <3 we’re planning on#meeting up over weekends next semester to change some stuff and add other extra features that we missed we got a decent grade 85% but we#all agreed we don’t want to leave him like this we want to add the extra features we had come up with and also i think we should switch out#our motors for servos bc the motors we were required to use#instead suck they’re not strong at all compared to what a servo can do for you. also we want to make it so you can not only pet him which w#already have with light sensors but also wash him with a Hall effect sensor and magnet so like we’d stick the sensor inside and the magnet#inside a little cad brush or sponge is what im envisioning and i have an expression in mind for what we’d do then. also paint him and#redesign the platform he stands on bc it’s rlly cramped and also make a pcb bc we only have him with the microcontroller and breadboards rn#and i might mess with his face piece a bit too im not sure. oh and speakers!!! those were technically a requirement but we didn’t get them#done on time but i want to make him play music sooooo bad so definitely that. anyway want to be more involved in the software when we do#all this. pretty excited actually :]

I made a lego case for my Raspberry Pi4 with fan hat and 3.5" LCD touchscreen module (that is attached with a flatwire to the Raspi-fan hat combination).

Yesterday's version of the Raspi case without the screen part:

Opportunities keep falling into my lap and I think it’s crazy how #blessed I am. I was scrambling for a place to live after the breakup and the funeral home was like “hey lol btw we have an empty apartment above this other location” ……………………….,,….
Reader, rent is $200 and I don’t have to pay utilities. WHAT??? And my friends that I’ve made in this state are jumping up to help me clean the place before I move in and donate furniture or whatever I may need. This is crazy. Never have things fallen so perfectly in place for me before. GOOD THINGS COMING!!!!!
#it’s such a cute little apartment too bc the building was made in the 1920s so I have transom windows and original hardware#and roof access!!!#I’ve never been able to decorate my own place before#with like. the furniture and stuff I’ve bought myself and not hand me downs#my coworker is giving me a table and chairs and I’m giving her the dryer from my current house#I have this living room set picked out that I can afford now since rent is low#pers#tt

Ah, the familiar rage that one always feels towards the husband in a horror novel. I would simply tear this man apart limb by limb.
#i'm reading nestlings and the rage i feel towards reid is worse than the normal ''husband in a horror story needs to LISTEN TO HIS WIFE''#his life is so hard :((( his disabled wife is worried about his baby :((((( and she's such a disgusting burden to him#he won't even stop by the HARDWARE store for FIVE seconds to grab a screw so his wife can do her work from home job#he's the REAL victim despite him lying to his wife about the fact he lost his job because he cursed out his boss#(losing them the health insurance his wife RELIES UPON)#when he left a party hosted by a bunch of rich and famous people who live in the building having just had what he calls#the best day of his life#and sees his wife covered in dirt with leaves in her hair because her chair had fallen in the courtyard and no one heard her calls for help#so she CRAWLED home#this man had the nerve to say how much she disgusted him#oscar talks to himself#oscar reads actual books

Unfuck your Tech
The Internet is increasingly profit-based in its design, intended to extract the maximum amount of value from your use of it. Proprietary tech, ads, monetization, algorithmic content dissemination, digital rights media (DRM) etc. are all things that benefit corporations, but that make the Internet more hostile to real individuals and communities.
This blog shares community-oriented tools, free alternatives to paid content, and ways for healthier more human media consumption with a focus on free open-source software (FOSS), that anyone can use to remove limiters, paywalls, ads, mindless endless content feeds, and take back digital autonomy, self-respect and fulfillment.
Unfuck your technology, and make your digital landscape a kinder place.

Dear AI Scrapers and other fic-stealing assholes...
That is all.
#this is the second time a completed fic from an old fandom has been stolen#and uploaded to Amazon for monetary gain#if it happens a third time#I'm devoting the rest of my life to building Saw traps for these people#bots and thieves please perish utterly#preferably of your own accord#I mean have you see the prices at the hardware store these days?#yeesh#anyway I'm untagging anything as complete#hopefully that will deter the fuckers#piss off scammers

I built my first PC!
Here's a video where I'm assembling the motherboard and installing it in the case- plugging each component was too complicated to record though sooo I didn't include the cable management part whoopsies
I actually built it in December before my exam period so I could properly focus on studying. I have done so much research to choose the right components for the right prices. I even bought some parts second hand because it's just outright stupid to buy things that are brand new when you can get the same things for cheaper that have been barely used...

i like to think robo JFK exploded on Xina at least once during construction and ya girl was rocking like. loony tunes esque soot on face + cartoon hair when electrified
#bonus points if only his head survived intact jsdfjksdhjfhsd#idk concepts that are funny to ME <- funny until you think abt how it was a product of overwork as she'd been working on robo jfk for hours#on end. not to mention while i think xina was a fantastic programmer - the hardware side of things was something was teaching herself#while doing this#autism project to distract from heartbreak ftw#anyways guess whos listening to Building The Crate fkjshfksjdfjsdl#tunes talks 2099

Playing Clock Tower 3 now. Really weird game but am enjoying it a lot! It's not particularly scary but i'm really digging the absurd atmosphere this has, kinda makes me think of Hausu at times due to how whimsical and surreal it can be. The direction and acting are pretty neat too, everyone's body animations are so weirdly expressive for this era. If I have any complaints so far is that the pursuer A.I. is kinda wonky and they can damage you even if you're not close to them. Can lead to some cheap deaths lol
#Clock Tower#Clock Tower 3#ps2#screencaps#By the way i'm emulating most of these PS2 games with PCSX2's nightly build#Works perfectly!!#Only issue i had with this one is that FMVs kinda glitch out in hardware mode#So I have to switch to software mode during those (F9)
