This ones's bent pretty bad so I hope it's an easy enough switch over

Those shark eggs are so cool, they're like an alien egg in real life. I'm surprised I haven't seen something that used them for inspiration yet

Drumeo looks good even if it's paid. There's heaps on YouTube from them

Something got caught in the chain of the new bike and bent the derailleur all to shit. Never happened to me on a bike before.

I knew I should have gone belt drive

It's crazy your immediate manager would do that. I hope something comes around for you soon.

I just picked up a couple of these myself. The 4 pack is $60, so a little cheaper again if you know you'll use them.

No one in my team was in the office today so I had a sneaky extended lunch break to pick up my Rock Pi. I might try Home Assistant on it if there's a working image.

I feel that. Sometimes you feel like there's so much you should be doing that you do nothing. Or you end up working on the least important thing. Or you're getting things done but it doesn't feel like you're getting anything done.

It will be a good bit of side money I can put to use. It's down the road from my normal job, and I can apply everything I've learned there to help this guy out.

Oh, and Jaycar is selling an RPi copy pretty cheap at the moment, the Rock 4C. I've been looking at these sorts of things for a while and decided to finally get one. It will really just be another computer around but at least it's not as big as a laptop.

I went to a guy's business that's looking for some marketing support today. He wasn't there but it worked out well. I asked for him and one of his employees called him and put me on the phone, that proves I showed up and was there.

He said to come back at 7:30 tomorrow morning to talk, I bet he thinks I won't show up. I've been looking for a bit of extra side work like this for a couple of years now, I had some stuff going on before the boys were born and that fell away, I haven't been able to find anything since.

I feel like I'm going to get something because this sort of side work always comes in twos for me. I've been talking to some other potential leads and one of them will probably come through at the same time.

I voted in the Triple J Hottest 100 Australian Songs of all time. It's very Triple J coded with the songs you can vote on, I had to manually add Shit on the Liver by King Parrot. One of the greatest Australian songs and music videos of all time.
