My household has a shared calendar we use to plan events. I've thought about a project before just to put a big view version of that up somewhere for people to reference, but I've been hesitant because it's a large household and having to play tech support every time it goes wrong isn't something i can do.

If i could get a reliable screen on the fridge that could display that, along with maybe a Reminders List and your sticky note idea, that would be perfect. With ads though that's a big nope from me.

Even excluding my stance on not wanting ads, that's how you find out the 5 year old accidentally bought something, or that something was leaked in a big data leak. That's just something i don't want in my home

Same. I’m sitting in my college’s library right now trying to work and the outage threw a wrench in all of my plans. I’m thankful I downloaded the files to my hard drive though so I can do most of the work on Pen and Paper

40-70 GBs is the sweet spot for me. My Wi-Fi can download it within a day usually and I can fit a bunch of them onto my 1 TB SSD

I’d say I was? I got along with most everyone and it wasn’t uncommon for me to walk around during lunch break and most people to recognize me

It would seem Woodie Flowers is who i'm thinking of. I'm glad the other two are alive though. It's a shame about the owner, but i also i feel like that death was easily avoidable

I could have sworn I remember hearing the founder died of Covid back when I was in FIRST myself, it’s possible I’m confusing him for someone else though.

Luckily the robotics team covers all the parts for their robot so he’s getting a bit of the experience

He has a ton of ideas. Right now he’s gotten really into Robotics and specifically joined his local FIRST team. This gave him the idea to build a robot of his own. I’ve tried to support him but damn can those things get expensive fast

I try to encourage him since all my tinkering was self taught. I know I’d appreciate having a guide or even just a friend to talk to about those ideas. And he definitely comes up with some ideas that help my own tinkering.

Right now he’s really into engineering and has this box that comes monthly that I paid for him that teaches him Engineering principles. I think it’s done by Mark Rober? Not really tinkering but He also likes making models for 3D printing and he’s been trying to get into Programming, unfortunately I think that curiosity keeps distracting him though.

lmao. I have a brother who's a lot like me and loves to tinker (not too young that this is irresponsible though), so when i need to throw something on to keep him occupied while i work, i know Technology Connections is a safe bet.

Man, I fucking love watching this guy. He’ll talk about the most niche things and I love learning about it. He inspired a presentation I gave on how rice cookers work

the Blue Planet tour was awesome, I liked that it had a loose plotline to follow. i'm assuming they're continuing it for when you go to see them but it's definitely well worth the experience. I hope you have fun!

Damn. I’m jealous. I saw Weezer live last October and I’d kill to see them in person again lol. I’ve been meaning to see BT in person too so maybe I’ll try and see them next
