Posted on December 15, 2024 by AdaptiveCurmudgeon

There’s nothing deep about today’s post. Don’t think I’m going to philosophize about “peace and love” or anything like that. Today is a depth free day! A zillion years ago I almost bought a 3d printer. I did due diligence … Continue reading →

WYBDR: Marathon Ending

Posted on November 15, 2024 by AdaptiveCurmudgeon
