Cute date ideas:

Turn into a giant nightmare bat and a wolf

Enter the devil’s fortress and steal his jewels

there’s a group of engineer student studying behind me and one of them just said “hey, hey don’t ever let anything take that away from you. that’s your equation. don’t give the book any credit for that.”

Ghost home by Static Box

This is the house I grew up in, it is in a rural area with a mountain wall on one side and a river on the other.

I took this photo in 2013 and just now I notice our rabbit was in the picture

Success!!!

I had an impure thought

So I started playing Crossout, a post-apocaliptyc MMO game that consists on the construction of cars to battle other players.

The game looks good, is easy to control and very intuitive, the battles are fast paced and quick. Enjoying it very much.

Just found out about this game, a MMO pvp with cars you can customize and built yourself. Totally gonna try it.

Oh I found my favourite Stellaris anomaly awhile ago. 

you know when you decide to wear contacts but you keep trying to adjust your non existent glasses bc you’re used to the weight on your face

This is what I imagine when I see pictures of those parrots

Photos of sculptures? I made some years ago on a day out at the river.

Just bought a bunch of electronics for my projects!

1- Pickit 3: a microcontroller programer

2- The base to connect the microcontroller

3- The cable to connect all that to my computer

4- An RFID reader/writer, this is uses the cards and keychain in the left, it wends then a signal reads their internal circuit for their ID, so it can be used like a digital key to activate whatever.

5- A real time clock, for like when you want your device to act at a certain hour.

6- An ultrasound sensor for measuring distances 

7- Five optical sensors, this are used for line following robots.

A comic I had left unfinnished for a good while.

Made a cardboard octahedron with gears in all its faces, this is especial because with other figures the gears would not be able to turn while like this they can.

My sister asked me to glue her mirror back together, so I put a surprise for later

Play that funky music green boy

Guardians of the Galaxy (2018) Issue #148

My head hurts, i have fever (that i feel it provably means it's around 39 celcius) Sometimes i start monologuing, so here's some stuff I've said to myself: -I'm charcoal friendly -Something about pistachios being related to crabs?? -Fish are just slugs even though they don't move by sticking to stuff -I'm so lonely or at least I hope so -too hot too hot, hot damm -Others make stupid questions like what is the meaning of life, at least I'm asking the real questions like what is the meaning of lmfao and why is it related to aliens

Cutting some cardboard gears for a project. 

I printed them in paper and I’m using carbon paper to pass them to the cardboard

Got really bored, so I decided to correct a boomerang I made a good while ago. The wood is to thick for the boomerang size, so I'm sanding a layer with my dremel

So I listened to 'seagulls stop it now' and now youtube thinks it is an actual song that I would listen in my actual song listening time

Project time!

So for some time now I've had an idea of an usb extension that lets you choose between two usb ports using a switch. 

 So I started taking measurements and making the design:

Then I actually made the thing, I would have loved to make it on a PCB for it to be more sturdy and reliable but that’s not suitable for me at the moment, so I just soldered some cables (what a mess) and now it’s time to test it.

After some adjustments a resoldering it works just fine and I have a functional prototype that I hope does not burn my computer.

So, the switch selects which USB port receives power. That way, when on the left it activates the left port:

And when in the right it reads the right port:

The Usb on the left has a solid black image and the one on the right a solid white.

It works so only the selected Usb port is the one that works.

Stuff I got for christmas, an organizer for electronics, a measuring tape, a scalpel knife, a nice Vernier caliper with a precision of 0.05 mm (0.002 in?), various Dremel adapters and electric tape.
