so xenotrek and i have been working IRL on a crowdfunding startup project for this lil bad mfker called…

~The Bad OBD~

it’s a can bus dongle that plugs into the car diagnostic port and eliminates the need for a key!!! in any vehicle!! (whaaat!!)

yes it’s real yes there’s a prototype. hmu for any deets. i shall provide :)

we are working on getting approved on kickstarter as i type this but

we have an (admittedly wip) website at

www.badobd.wordpress.com

if ya wanna check it out… anyways yes just a heads up that this is happening!!! check it out!! reblog for visibility if you daaare…. big up’s to the car hackers out there, WE SEE YOU !!

basically we want to make this really really badly, we are just super broke and currently living thru our own personal 9/11 money wise. yea. more details to come!! anyways if anyone is interested in backing this, we have a deal for the first 33 backers to get their own custom bad OBD for like 80% of the final price.

bad OBD!!! :D

oh yeah it also has an app on the phone which acts as the base of controls, pretty hot stuff here.

here’s the ugly ass prototype literally mk 1 (it will look a lot more SEXY after we get the money in order to manufacture it for yall) yes it works tho :3 thank XENOTREK for the brains of the op, best car hacker ive ever known. absolute menace. gosh. *heart eyes*

I had a chat with my brother about the fight with the night troopers in ahsoka and he pointed something out to me

It's really stupid how the characters just avoid dismembering and/or decapitating the troopers, because that's how you're supposed to stop zombies, you go for the heads and/or render them immobile

"Ha ha zombie! I slashed you across the chest! What're you gonna do now? OW! FUCK! THEY'RE BITING ME!"

It's pretty obvious that going forward all disposable minion bad guys in SW will have to be droids because disney won't let up on their "no cutting people up" internal rule, because apparently we can't even hack apart the undead, but what's the point of zombies if you can't dismember them without a thought? Zombies remove the ethical concerns of mass slaughtering bad guy minions

Y'know say what you will about it, but Rey and Kylo vs the Praetorian guards actually felt brutal in the way lightsaber combat should be, people got thrown in an electric shredder, the top half of one guy's head was cut off, throats were slit, a lightsaber was shoved into someone's face, and when Rey/Kylo stabbed a guy they really drove the saber in, like rewatch it, you clearly see them putting effort to drive their sabers through the guards

as mark indelicato would say: FAMIGLY 🤍

I really want Satoru and Daifuku to be the midseasons. Please, give me bunny precure...

Hey, does anyone know how to clean a super old plushie made of black fabric? Specifically an old Build-a-Bear Toothless, if that helps.

My boy has sat on top of my bookshelf for about a year now and unfortunately he's getting a little bit mouldy. I don't sleep with him and it's only really on his eyes and fins so he isn't a hazard or anything.

Using only water and detergent isn't gonna do the job but I'm worried that adding weak bleach or vinegar is gonna lighten the fabric. He's supposed to be a night fury, not a light fury.

Vintage Dark Tower game from 1981 I restored a while back. (Had a bad DC/DC buck converter) This is test mode you use to check if the light bulbs are burned out.

We played a full 4 player game after, and it is surprisingly complex/ still fun to play!

Just some bone heads chilling in their castle.

I've noticed it's a lot harder for folks to get noticed on here than it was like, 6 years ago.

A severe case of The Wiggles

Good morning ADHDblr, I was today years old (29 and a half, a full 3 decades I have not known this) when I realized something important. Context first tho, let me define The Wiggles:

A case of The Wiggles: also known as "brain Zoomies", simply "Zoomies", etc. A temporary state where your brain and body respond to fatigue by becoming uncomfortably hyperactive and stimulation seeking. One who experiences The Wiggles may experience things like jitteriness, irritability, anxiety/stress, mood swings, physical discomfort, feeling like they're stuck on fast-forward and can't slow down their thoughts or actions, feeling like they need something important but nothing around them is the right thing, fast-paced and compulsive fidgeting, intrusive impulses and thoughts, inability to sustain focus on one thing at a time.... You get it. All the hallmarks of the ADHD experience, happening very loudly, all at once. To an outside eye, it may look like the person is super alert and hyper, or like they're being overstimulated and overwhelmed, but it's usually the exact opposite— our brains run out of energy to work on being good and productive, and our muscles get restless and tight from lack of exercise, so we start going haywire from being both burnt out and understimulated.

For example, many ADHD children start getting The Wiggles later in their school day and have trouble sitting through later classes, but having a substantial amount of recess time halfway and an extracurricular activity of their choice gives them the relief they need to make it through everything comfortably. As another, personal example, I'm especially prone to the wiggles early in the morning. It takes me a long time to shake off sleep inertia, especially if I have to wake up to an alarm, so I can get stuck in limbo for an hour or two. my brain is having trouble making the chemical shift to alertness, so my thoughts, feelings, needs, and responses are all an unreliable mess— fortunately, once I find the right activity or topic of interest to anchor to (like a walk outside, a snack with a strong flavor, a weird texture to rub, or even reading a random spam email) everything starts slotting into place all at once, and the wiggles start to ease off.

Ok, accidentally long explanation over. The very important thing I realized..... Is that The Wiggles..... Aren't the symptom itself. Just like hunger is the body signalling a need for fuel that's not being met, or shivering is the body signalling a need for warmth that's not being met, The Wiggles are a signal from the brain and body that a need is not being met— an intense need to stim. No holding in, no being discreet, no masking, just grabbing the nearest bumpy texture, clicking object, or piece of string and going to town on that repetitive action. It's grounding, it's focusing, and the little pleasure of doing it helps nudge the dopamine process back to work.

I figured out wiggling around steam so I can keep playing FO4 even after the update drops :)

Coaxing all the Silm fans into watching this heartrending tragedy show, Exandria Unlimited: Calamity. I’ve never seen another Critical Role in my life and it’s great. It has everything! Divorced wizards! Arrogance! Spiting the gods! Extending kindness to the god of lies that he will definitely misuse but what else can you do? Gorgeous trees! Mourning! Miscommunication! The end of a gilded age! Love and friendship that in the end is not enough to hold back a tide that will soon consume everything they love.

And it’s pretty short and digestible. Come and get it while it’s hot.

I'm not saying Daifuku has to be the secret mid-season cure.

But I mean he's already a perfect creature, him becoming a precure would be like a extra serving on an already perfect meal

This Vitruvian HACK now lives rent free in my brain:

I mean... Gorgeous detailing, beautiful sculpting... only for him to be posed like the chillest, mellowest dude in the roman army. Not some amazing pose that shows off the details or to make this thirty dollar toy look super cool. Just... This. And it actually feels real and historical. Dude just resting against his super heavy shield, instead of holding it at all times.

"S'up? How's it goin'?"

"So, what bring ya all the way out here?"

college is so great because I can play cool math games during a lecture and have no one care
