@SergKoren this looks fun and I may have to try this very soon. I have plenty of RPIs lying around — like rebels in search of a worthy cause! — and this could a really cool project. Of course, now I need to bone up FORTH again. 🤓 #tooManyProjects #RPI #stackBasedLanguagesRule

I finally finished building and documenting 3 projects for #RaspberryPi with #SenseHat or #EnviroPlus. These apps display both on device and in CLI (using Python #Rich). And yes, these apps are totally #overengineered 🤓

@Tali My Adafruit Macropad arrived yay! So list of upcoming holiday vacation projects now includes PyPortals, Macropad, and a 7" touchscreen that's been sitting on my desk for a few months. I can't even remember why I bought that one. I also have a Braincraft module lying around 🤓 #Adafruit #PyPotal #CircuitPython #BrainCraft #HolidayCodingProjects

It's the weekend I finally have time to dive deeper into CircuitPython and Adafruit's Blinka library. I also got a 2nd Adafruit PyPortal and have a ton of RPIs lying around. Actually, come to think of it, I have a ton of all kinds of components lying and it's time to do something fun 🤓 #CircuitPython #Adafruit #Blinka

@Tali does this work with any computer, OS, etc.? I wanted to get one of these #macropads and connect it to my Linux laptop

Doing some clean-up work on birdie site using @semiphemeral and locking down accounts. Going forward, those accounts will only be used for occasional lurking.

The #fediverse is now my home! And, by the way, I don't care if I ever get more followers, etc. The really cool thing here is the community and the absence of ads and sponsored content. And yes, I do think that one should (financially) support one's server when possible. In my case it's fosstodon.org #CleanUpMonday #SupportYourServer

Crossing the Pecos River, TX #Amtrak #SunsetLimited

Good morning Texas! And yes, it may seem I’m in the middle of nowhere, but nearest Starbucks is only 35 miles East from here according to Google maps #Amtrak #SunsetLimited

Turns out that BBQ was for the staff. Good for them! Great crew here on the #SunsetLimited. Anyway, I had a burger for lunch so I cannot complain 😊

So I have tons of time to think as I’m watching the world roll by outside my window here on the #Amtrak #SunsetLimited. It’s also a great opportunity to rethink my digital footprint. That other site with the blue bird now has 2 fewer accounts 😎
