That looks great, much better than the original cardboard components

That’s the official story at least, but we all know what’s really going on. There are 10 seasons of documentary detailing what’s really happening under that mountain.

This is blowing my mind right now… Those things gave me nightmares as a kid thinking they crawl into people’s ears…

Nope, totally out of the loop on this one… Is he renaming Twitter?

What’s the top image, is it some Microsoft x-windowing system?

Lol, this one is great

If you are buying a coin that’s already on the market as a fully attributed coin then yeah you don’t want to clean it. I buy coins that are “fresh” out of the ground so they’re literally caked with mud. They look like this so they require cleaning. Properly cleaning 2000 yr old coins is a months long process involving microscope and very deliberate & precise application of effort. For some reason I find it very relaxing, almost like a form of meditation. It’s a hobby that I’d love to share the results and talk about with others.

Shameless plug: You can see some of my Before/After pictures over at [email protected] :-)

Yeah, I like tech too but also enjoy cleaning ancient coins. It’ll be nice if someone else found my community and it would pick up. I’m trying to post ever so often so anyone that stumbles on it will know I’m still around

This wouldn’t work or make sense for cross posts in communities to have discussions specific to that community.

For example I run the [email protected] community. If a post from there is cross-posted in [email protected] their discussions about the coin would be different (focused around numismatic interests as opposed to cleaning focused discussion). It wouldn’t make sense for the comments to be merged.

Not always, it really depends on what the person who did the board layout or wrote the firmware thought. When I do a board/firmware I label it from the devices perspective, so the TX is where the bits I’m transmitting will be coming out of, RX is where I’m expecting your bits to be sent to. Others label it from the perspective of the device connecting to it. So TX is where you connect the line your sending bits from. To me that’s wierd because, to others it’s what they expect. There is no standard and the result is you end up hooking it to an oscilloscope and see which line bits are being sent from. Then you use the scope to figure out all the settings. If they don’t transmit in power up then… Frustration ensures

Don’t forget trying to guess if the RX label is the line they transmit out of or you transmit to.

My son (same age) really enjoys “My first castle panic” and “HABA Rhino Hero A Heroic Stacking Card Game”. He has a ton of boardgames but likes those two the most.

I think Lemmy is reddit like, so any server running lemmy will be reddit like.

That’s odd, we use “a wee bit *” in the USA too, not a terribly common colloquialism but still used. On second thought, maybe not lol. I do read a lot, perhaps I picked up my familiarity with the phrase from books.

This game has splitscreen couch co-op that works great! My wife and I played it together using our steam link. It was a great experience. Amazing game
