A saw some great acrobatic flying including a helicopter doing loops and barrel rolls. The sky was full of Jets, skydivers, simulated strafing runs, a water drop, and so much more. On the ground i was able to check out a lot of incredible machines including a jetpack and aquatic aircraft called the ICON. There was a STEM hanger where kids could operate basketball playing robots.
I managed to get a few pretty cool pictures with my iPhone. We even made a sort of camera obscura and projected the moon onto a piece of paper.
I sealed the electronics behind a some plastic and weather stripping. Upgraded the solar panel and the reservoir. sensors are collecting data and i can even make some pretty graphs. Plants seem to be thriving.
One of my older Trezor’s had a little hardware issue (USB port broke off). when i went to look for my paper backup, it was not where i expected. With no backup, I had no way to transfer the coins or tokens. This is essentially how coins get burned. Without access to the key, they aren’t your coins. it would be a shame to loose these assets, so i sought out a solution.
Luckily, i had some expert help. my guy, referred me to his guy. amazing work. Huge thanks to Bill, for averting catastrophe. now i am putting my new paper backup somewhere safe. (and somewhere else, also safe)
Area 15 is like a mall of the bizarre and interesting (and also bars). Inside, the Las Vegas Meow Wolf installation is called Omega Mart. It begins with a store and takes a bit of a turn.
Beyond and behind the Omega Mart is the Factory with alien motivation and unbelievable equipment. Everything is interactive, there are stories and backstories and branching pathways. puzzles, games, and mysteries to unravel. I went on a mission to hack the Omega Mart!

Meow Wolf: The House of Eternal Return is a 20,000 square foot building (once a bowling alley) now filled with over 70 room uniquely decorated with incredible interactive art. Yesterday we spent hours exploring. Just when we thought we’d seen it all we would open a cabinet or move a bookshelf and suddenly entirely new avenues opened for us to explore.
This classic from my childhood has for some reason, never worked in emulation. Until now! i am finally able to play this game again after decades. it’s more challenging than i remember.
I even managed to complete a challenge that i could NEVER beat back in the day. Continue reading “My favorite game from 1987 is fun again thanks to updated FS-UAE!”
I have acquired a 2001 Ducati Monster 900 Dark i.e. that was purchased for the movie Mission Impossible 2. It has practically no miles (1886). It was ignored in a garage for a decade so it required a fair amount of paperwork and some maintenance to get it working well and street legal. there are a few minor cosmetic issues like a small dent in the gas tank and broken and taped on turn signals. (i believe the signals were removed for the film)
A few people have asked me to get them pictures and info so i figured this was the fastest way while i work on my actual sales page. I tried to document all the flaws.
More than 5 years ago, i bought this car after its kin had served me well. This one did me proper as well, not one major problem. . .
Until two weeks ago, this happened on the 101.
The damage didn’t seem that bad. i tied my bumper up and drove it away. my neck was a bit stiff. Continue reading “Saying farewell to a gallant steed!”
