💀 science teacher is currently having a mental breakdown

Turns out my M0 MCU weather display was failing due to a SSL cert issue. Sorted that and now the time keeping code doesn't work even though unchanged. The joys of maintain these tiny projects where a re-compile can break things. #iot

Thank you to everyone using CW on toots related to the US election. Looking at my timeline last night and this morning has been very comfortable thanks to you. 😊

⌚️Apple Watch is officially ordered. Just went with the SE but I’m excited to start running with just a watch and headphones

I enjoy making useful gadgets around the house. But this week the M0 MCU + LCD display I built for our bedroom closet stopped working. Super handy because it shows us current WX conditions and forecast while we get dressed. With a touch it even gives the full text forecast. It’s been more than 3 years so first up is to re-learn the code and be sure it still builds and loads. #iot

🦢 I made portraits of Murathan Mungan for Altyazı Cinema Magazine. It was a lovely experience.

✂ Barber time!

In looking back in my journal today I ran across this tidbit: four years ago today I first joined a Mastodon instance. A lot has changed, you might say. 🕰️

Content warning: US Politics

I am glad election day is finally here. For weeks I’ve been bombarded by political spam text messages and phone calls - all from a state I haven’t lived in for 15+ years. Hopefully there will be a lull until the “big one” in 2024.

⚖️ Lost 9 characters overnight.

✨ I've been having a lot of fun trying out Mastodon the last few days. You can find my account here: https://tech.lgbt/@natalie

😴 trying to wake up, literally and figuratively

😀 Feeling happy and testing a status update on omg.lol

I feel I’m of an age now that whenever I eat lunch I feel a strong need to ingest a big dose of caffeine to resist the urge for a quick nap 💤

😶‍🌫 I will never crosspost!

✅ Currently working on wantlist.io for Eko Wave

I have, at least attempted, to switch from using micro.blog as my primary posting vehicle to Mastodon. My apologies in advance if I get the config wrong 🤞🏼

Please ignore, testing a configuration change.

If I post a photo to MB with alt text is that included in my cross-post to Mastodon? I’m trying to verify it is but having some (probably user error) trouble.
