Too many interests, really
Sam Oldman 🐀My bio here says "too many interests" instead of the customary list of hashtags.
As if this wasn't true, my kids keep adding new hobbies to the list.
Yesterday I was trying to get a USB Software Defined Radio to do something useful on a raspberry Pi. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I think I should have started on a device with a display.
The day before, I was out playing with a tiny quadcopter.

Sam Oldman 🐀We keep both coffee and cat treats in Le Parfait jars, so the cats get very excited when I'm making coffee.

Sam Oldman 🐀I'm trying to avoid staring at the giant train wreck of America's slide into oligarchy and authoritarian government.
I am failing. Sometimes I even boost or reply to this horror.

Sam Oldman 🐀I had a bit of an accident with the shopping cart on the Princess Auto web site, so the dog is going to be happy to get extra dog toys, and my friends are going to be surprised to get 10" Christmas pipe wrenches.
Sam Oldman 🐀After cleaning up diarrhea after the sick dog, and often getting some on my hands, I've been wondering about other people's tolerance and germ phobia.
After washing your hands a few times, what is the shortest time needed before you can eat finger food like cookies and muffins?

Sam Oldman 🐀New (to me) bugs keep appearing in my garden. This big one visiting the mint is a great black wasp. You'd think the people naming wasps could have picked a more exciting name.

Sam Oldman 🐀I burped and said "excuse me."
The kid just said "It's going to be hard after that one" so I think my work here is progressing nicely.

Sam Oldman 🐀I was impressed by this guy's ability to occupy four parking spaces. Maybe his other vehicle is a bread truck. (For extra credit, it's running.)
