Has anyone else heard about the Openprinter?

Not a sales pitch, the sizzle reel popped up in my feed and I am a sucker for open source and print related tools so I'm just straight up interested.

I long to print 10 foot long strips of city maps and murals as tiles to fill my stairwell walls and...

For all my late night mellow chooms, happy Friday.

People are wonderful.

I love individuals.

I hate groups of people.

I hate a group of people with a 'common purpose'.

'Cause pretty soon they have little hats. And armbands. And fight songs. And a list of people they're going to visit at 3am.

So, I dislike and despise groups of people but I love individuals.

Every person you look at; you can see the universe in their eyes, if you're really looking.

I still think about her.

That hateful heat, that misfit crew, stuck in the deep woods together.

A shitty summer contract, a rundown cabin with bunks for four, so much time waiting to wait.

The way she laughed when something inevitably broke.

The way she smiled when she invariably got something working again.

Sunsets wrapped in skunk weed and campfire and river chilled beers.

The way she sang Stevie Nicks songs in the shower.

How she looked when she knew she'd misjudged me.

I still think about her...

I left the church and Christianity nearly two decades ago, but goddamn if some of that old time revival music don't slap.

Steam Frame wait list is officially open! Closing September 17th, at which point they shuffle it and dole out purchase spots.

As a Canadian vr enthusiast, I don't think my frugality will let me buy one at $1,529 before tax for the base 256GB soldered model.

If it had launched before the Rampocolypse it'd be easier to swallow...

This short story is feeling more and more pertinent these days.

Quick question: are you your body, or do you have a body?

Feels like it’s finally time to start on my cyberdeck.

Figured I should start my inspiration from the source.

Just stumbled across the terminal project Swaggerfall. Does anyone know of other terminal games like this?

“One need not hope to undertake one’s work.”

Jean-Paul Sartre

Alright I may have gone a bit off the deep end and still have more to clean up, but building out my supporter page in full web 1.0 aesthetic while trolling through archives has really reminded me how much things have changed.

I know it's a typical refrain these days, but as a life long technologist...

I don't need this, but I do want this.

Don't get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.

Dolly Parton (1946 - 2026)

A heavy silence over the hills today.

I was late to Dolly. As a big music buff I kind of listened around her, chalking it up to being too mainstream country (my least-listened-to-genre).

I didn't really go through the catalogue until 2022, during a six week special archival...

As a semi reformed introvert, I still recite this bit in my mind some days.

I'm not dying yet. I have to kill quite a few men first.

Is Your Brain Feeling... Rotted?

Are you suffering from Algorithmic-Induced Ennui (AIE)?

Symptoms may include chronic doomscrolling, a dulled sense of discovery, and the feeling that your thoughts are being curated by someone else.

Don't wait. It's time to ask about a new treatment.
