how it started how it's going

@chinbeard Inkscape is great, I used it to design these Futurama-related PCBs.

Kif, prepare the vector software… I’m making props again! youtu.be/a-ftl3yzUpw

@bouphe "Nothing to inspect." I beg to differ.

Nearly there, executive producer is here

Wow wow wow I just sold my 100th Clamps badge! This was the first item listed in my @tindie store. tindie.com/products/tomm_…

@LockFarm This is how it came out.

@LockFarm It always feels like I'm a step away from a neater solution. Pretty happy with this effort though.

Unaware of the Sainsbury's issues before I went out shopping earlier. Cash or chip-and-pin, no contactless, not a huge deal. One guy yelling at a cashier because he'd tried the wrong PIN too many times. 🤷‍♂️

@SimonHoneydew @bouphe @Geestargames Always enjoy listening to you all talk about films, but most of all I enjoy listening to you all laugh about films! Infectious, and not in the "chest-burster" way.

The unicorn has been hanging out on my speaker cabinet for the last few weeks. #gunshipunicorn

Definitely didn't learn DaVinci Resolve just for my latest #NewVinyl post! @GUNSHIPMUSIC #gunshipunicorn

@ViolenceWorks In high school we were asked to do presentations on famous mathematicians. One student spent his entire alloted time talking about the cow catcher.

This is the 152nd anniversary of the death of Charles Babbage. Babbage's greatest invention was the cowcatcher, a device mounted to the front of a train. Babbage was also known for inventing the computer, but this was not his greatest invention because computers were a mistake.

@65dos First 10 people to find me at the London show will get a free 65 blinky badge!

65DAYSOFSTATIC WILD LIGHT TOUR STARTS IN TWO DAYS! // << Glasgow-Manchester-London-Bristol-Brighton-Paris-Antwerp-Amsterdam-Hamburg-Berlin >> All tickets: musicglue.com/65-daysofstati… It's gonna be great, come come come. Amazing support from Chisel and Sugar Horse in UK/Europe

@concreted0g @Raspberry_Pi @HackSpaceMag Having just hand-soldered 720 LEDs across 5 PCBs, I will be keeping an eye out for this.

Sneak preview of a future project coming up in the #KiCad series in @HackSpaceMag. The tutorials have been building towards having enough knowledge and skills to create and have assembled a @Raspberry_Pi #RP2040 based board... and that's just for starters :) #making #pcb #pcba

I made some bootleg @65dos merch ahead of their Wild Light 10th Anniversary tour in September. They asked us to bring "pixel accessories" and I took that a bit too seriously! tindie.com/products/tomm_…

@hannahmakes Do you hand assemble your PCBs? I've just finished soldering 720 LEDs for a project. Next time I think I need to look into PCBA 😂

@groundcontrolto Haha! Wow, yours are gorgeous! Maybe this year we should team up and make some deliberately matching ones 😉?

Wish I could show you the PCB I'm working on at the moment... but then I realised I never shared my Christmas PCBs! Forgot to select ENIG, but decided I liked the silvery colour better because it matches the doorbell 😄 ...and forgot the rounded corners 🤦‍♀️ but pleased overall!

@65dos You said bring "pixel accessories", did I understand the brief?

CHIPZEL in UK. Gameboy ultra beats fresh from the video dimension. Assorted hypernoise low fidelity synth battle tracks. Endless chiptune bangers. Joycore? Is that a thing? Whatever, bring dancing shoes & pixel accessories. chipzelmusic.bandcamp.com

Morning all. Very excited to announce our tour supports for the Wild Light shows in September. Tour supports for all UK dates = @chipzel (whose account seems to suspended right now?) Tour supports for all EURO dates = @sugarhorse666 TICKETS: 65daysofstatic.com/Live/

I found another 10 Roberto badge kits. They're up on @tindie now! tindie.com/products/tomm_…

@SoVeryBritish Me this morning reading my car number plate to someone, "It's K for Knight."

Shoutout to anyone who panics and uses whatever words come into their head when attempting the phonetic alphabet, whether they’re helpful words or not. On the phone just now I said, “It’s P for, um, Philadelphia… and Q for… queue… as in, you know, a long queue?”

@NVIDIAGeForceUK @MSI__UK @Sips_ @strippin_ @bouphe @Ravsy_ Team UK, you've got this! #DiabloIVDLSS3
