AQI outside vs inside currently. Just setup my old fan filter to see about brining that down. Probably not bad for a leaky 110+ year old house.

My linkedin feed is filled with the most terrible slop (and not all if it ai)
What if I shared my kinksheet there just to stir things up a little 😂
I haven’t even shared it on main (although probably on my alt) so no I won’t
But it’s fun to imagine

So, uh, looks like I'm gonna try my hand at restoring a CRT TV. The Sony PVM-9044Q is in good shape, so it didn't really require any work. However, found a JVC TM-150CG and decided to take a stab at getting it up and running. I expect that there will be more than a bit of work needed and that the 3D printer is gonna be doing some work. I don't know the condition of the tube, but shouldn't be a huge issue to track down one. Also tracked down a IF-C01COMG RGB card for the TV which will work out nicely.

The clumping reeds of Slartibartfast.
I like the way this photo turned out. The symmetry is quite pleasing. I composed the shot so the whatchamacallits (flowers, fronds, buds….what are those things?) aligned over the darker trees in the background. And that turned out nicely. I will score myself a solid 7/10.
It would have been better if there was just a smaller clump in the centre of the photo surrounded by the water.
And perhaps a hint of mist?
I must speak to Slartibartfast about this1, or perhaps God, or a physicist, or the Matrix AI……Im not sure which jurisdiction matters of aesthetic reed distribution falls under.
