Loooolllll: "DOGE Mandates Power Tool Manufacturers Use Single Battery Platform" - https://www.protoolreviews.com/doge-mandates-power-tool-manufacturers-use-same-battery/

Good luck with that: "DOGE (the Department of Government Efficiency) has directed both the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to mandate that all power tool manufacturers in the United States adopt a single, universal battery platform. Even more stunning, DOGE has tapped Positec, the parent company of Worx, Rockwell Tools, and Kress, as the manufacturer to eliminate the current state of “battery chaos.”"

This was definitely thought up by a nerd who went to use his Milwaukee drill and only had Makita battery and was mad he had to buy a $150 battery.

Favorite thing lately is finding an article I wish were in podcast form, saving the text to a .txt file, then having TTS Util use RH Voice to convert the file into an audio reading, and listen to my own little robotic FOSS nanny read me the stories I want to hear in my headphones as I do yardwork.

I've painted the shed and the fence this morning, planted a few veg, and now it's time to build a new wheel for my two-wheeled recumbent.

The freehub in the existing wheel has decided to be "free" more often than it should be. Sometimes it works just fine, and other times when I pedal the pedals just spin without doing anything. I'll probably take the hub apart and see if it's salvagable, but first I'll get the new wheel in use.

It's an old bike, about 27 years old now, but it suits me. It's comfortable, nice to ride, and I'm used to it. This is the fourth time I've rebuilt the rear wheel. The other occasions were twice due to wearing down the rim too much when braking, once when the original hub failed, and once when someone in the UK drove into me on my commute to work and destroyed the wheel (luckily I wasn't hurt on that particular occasion).

I have a fair number of these perfectly good and reasonably inexpensive rims in stock should any of you want one:

Meanwhile, #ThriftyBuilder is busy reinventing the wheel by creating a #gearbox dynamometer to test his #hydrofoiling electric boat transmissions. Because why spend $100 an hour at a dyno lab when you can waste an infinite amount of time and resources building your own?

打造一臺 8 位元電腦
➤ 從零開始的電腦組裝之旅
✤ https://eater.net/8bit/
Ben Eater 在他的網站和 YouTube 頻道上分享瞭如何使用麵包板和簡單邏輯閘，從零開始打造一臺可程式化的 8 位元電腦的詳細過程。他提供了完整的零件清單、電路圖，以及各個模組（時脈、暫存器、算術邏輯單元、隨機存取記憶體、程式計數器、輸出暫存器）的說明。此外，他也分享了電腦運作示範和相關的基礎知識講解影片，並提供包含所有零件的套件供有興趣者購買。
+ 這真是太酷了！一直想了解電腦底層運作原理，這個教學真的很有幫助，而且看起來不難，想試試看！
+ 難度好像不小，不過能自己打造一臺電腦，感覺非常有成就感，套件的出現讓挑戰變得更容易了。

For our fifth anniversary in 2021, I made these keychains for my partner and I (the custom bit is from Outerwonders on Etsy) but the little controller charm instantly broke so we both tucked our respective charms away. I had a new idea to make them into a rear-view mirror charm… I have a pretty solid idea, I’m just trying to track down all the parts. #diy #handmade
