I am entirely on board with the new charizard kaiju design and the inevitable fanart that follows it. 💜

Someone made a set of Animal Crossing amiibo cards for the MH World monsters, and I love them all. 💖

"On a scale of one to attacking Jackie Chan in a ladder factory while he's holding a baby after he's just said he doesn't want any trouble, how bad is this idea?"

hummingbird prep, winter 

Our winter hummingbird population is large enough now that I’ve put out three feeders for them.

Last winter, they were consuming 32oz of nectar a month. The consumption rate peaked this August/September, at this same amount every two weeks. It’ll probably go back down as more birds migrate South, though we have quite a few Anna’s hummingbirds that stay here year-round.

It’ll be interesting to see how they adjust to the new feeders.

ALSO HEY, COMMISSION TIME: here's a ref sheet I did for @BestGirlGrace 's character Bird Call! She's a super cool punk crow villain, and her favorite thing to do is cause telecommunications-related trouble. Watch out, she's got your number...

tiny computer, tech 

I managed to get KeepassXC on the tiny computer, since it seems like the best TOTP manager for the job. Now to see if I can make this thing usable, or if I’ll need to try a different program.

pol-adjacent, on writing in impossible times 

After a point, working in computer security made me at least one part near-future SF writer and one part horror writer. Which I guess makes sense.

pol-adjacent, on writing in impossible times 

Some advice from the sf and horror writers’ community for those who, like me, have trouble speaking up in difficult times:

Relatedly, its current heatsink is delicious.

Unfortunately, it overheats when installing large software packages. So I am now letting it install GNOME on a frozen bag of pizza rolls.

I tried doing so in the fridge, but alas, it did not get wifi.

The tiny computer has been forged successfully.

Now to install a touchscreen keyboard and the things I wanted on it.

Raspberry Pi Zero experiment is continuing apace. I’ve tried pocketing this thing, and it’s practically weightless, which is kind of crazy to me.

I also might have bought a second, since it’s inexpensive and enables further experimenting.

Chaser: It was in the last sphere generated by the seed, one chest _after_ finding the boomerang for go mode.

tech, dedicated two-factor device 

Just placed an electronics order to see how tiny I can make a dedicated two-factor device. Not everything I use supports U2F or FIDO2 (that’s already easy), and I’m kind of afraid of a simple phone drop leading to manual recovery of ~20 TOTP keys.

I’m a little surprised this is not a common enough thing for there to already exist commodity devices, so I’m going to try a Raspberry Pi Zero W build first.
