Typewriters are amazing machines and it's a shame that many people have never even used one. I was an at event where they had a dozen typewriters for kids to use and they loved them.

I don't normally get into dance, but I've watched this five times since I came across it yesterday and it's stunning every time. Beyond the incredible choreography - the clothing, colors, lighting, camera work, editing, everything. (TIL: CDK is a dance company in the Netherlands.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REPPgPcw4hk

🚀 🌔 Possibly the first American moon landing in 50 years, scheduled for later today. A commercial vehicle is carrying NASA science payloads but no crew. Pretty cool.

edit: first American craft, that is

Little bit scary but trying to put myself out there.

Feedback is welcome.

Logo is forthcoming, creative people taking creative time to get that bit done.

If you know anyone in Eastern Iowa or Western Illinois who needs to see on top of tall things, or doesn't want to wait for the next google maps satellite image update, let them know about me. Please and thank you!

@Tekchip Looks great! You should clean up the template info at the bottom of the Contact page, otherwise it's solid. Customer logos and/or testimonials are always nice to include eventually.

When we were at the airport yesterday I saw a toddler wearing a Thrasher t-shirt and I really wanted to say to him "Oh, are you a Thrasher? Name 3 tricks..."

I did not of course, because it was a silly joke.

Then on my second flight of the day the woman in the seat next to me was wearing a Thrasher sweatshirt!

Again, I was tempted, but did not, but I felt like the universe was telling me something.

(I first started reading Thrasher magazine around 1985.)

It was cold and a bit windy but my photogrammetry experiments seem to be working out pretty well.

@Tekchip I'm not familiar with Luma. Do you just upload the photos there for processing, or do you run the photogrammetry elsewhere and upload the model?

My father was not a computer guy, but he was pretty good with machines. I learned a lot from him.

When he was in his early 70s, he spent some time learning how to use my mom’s Mac so that he could write his memoirs. I recently scanned the old dot-matrix printed pages, fixed all the OCR, and posted them on my blog.

He lived from 1922-2008 and it was nice to reconnect with him through this project.

I had forgotten that last winter my old snowthrower was having drive problems. So when the first snow hit a couple of weeks ago my snowthrower barely worked. I thought it only needed a simple adjustment, or maybe a belt, but it turned out that the driveshaft was worn out. The driveshaft is no longer available & nearly worn out ones sell for ~$200 on eBay. Since I have a lathe & welder, I made one. Fortunately, new fiction drive wheel assemblies are still available. Now it's good as new!

this is the ultra mega super gnarly space travel mode of losing your quad in a tree or on a roof, and sadly for nasa, they cannot, like i did once (which holy shit this was fun) "borrow a basket crane from a parking lot using a ch751 key to retrieve it, then put the basket crane back without anybody noticing"
