New battery test, day 600: 2.91 volts. It’s settled: this watch, with its CR2016 coin cell installed in February 2022, will tick its way through a second trip to Pasadena for another visit to Supercon. Haven’t checked in with my buddy Ben, wearing the yellow line watch (with higher consumption due to the hourly beep); he’s abroad through mid November, and I’m wondering if it’ll still be running when he gets back. 🤞🏽

Sunday afternoon progress: the ESP32-S3 Open Book is fully operational! https://hackaday.io/project/192688-the-open-book/log/223804-a-working-prototype

i think about this meme a lot

Folks: we’re getting closer! This print was 0.6 mm off — forgot to set the PCB thickness parameter to 1mm - but I’m starting a new print now that I can play with a week from Monday. (Why that long? I’m going off-grid next week for a much needed vacation.) Anyway, OpenSCAD script is now decent enough to share. Sorry it’s kind of mayhem; I’ve been hacking on it piecemeal for ages… https://gist.github.com/joeycastillo/1835151d5760fa730ffa566defb53698

i am pleased to inform you that i am back on my bullshit. #openbook

I feel like every web site with a “Keep Me Logged In” checkbox should have a FAQ entry titled “Why Doesn't The ‘Keep Me Logged In’ Checkbox Keep Me Logged In,” and the answer should be “Because we hate you.”

Truly cursed vibes in the city today. These are straight out of the camera, and true to what the eye saw; lab’s never looked more haunted.
