My #Introduction.
I talk about life in #CambridgeMA and #Boston, #engineering, #science, #radios (#SDR, #HAM, #LoRa, #MeshCore), #pinball, #film, retro computers/video games, and more.
I collect #art, #LaserDiscs, study #horology, visit museums (The Met, MFA, Harvard Art #Museum) and support my local #library.
I read #poetry and books on #architecture, #design, and #urbanism.
I walk or take public #transit everywhere.
I practice #permacomputing and self-hosting, running #BSD where I can.
#introduction update for my second Mastodon anniversary!
I'm a #nonbinary #transmasc #lgbtqia person in my late 30s, I live in #Finland and pretty much toot in English.
I've been with my partner for over 16 years, we run a #pinball arcade together as a hobby. We have two elderly #cats who also get shared on here on the occasion.
I play a lot of #VideoGames, especially #RPGs and post about my progress, usually with pictures or videos.
I enjoy #travel, I've been to 13 different countries so far. I also enjoy meeting people from all around the world.
I do a lot of #crafts especially when the weather is bad. I #knit, #crochet and #CrossStitch
I'm a #chef by profession, I love good #food and great #coffee. I've been working at a student cafe on a uni campus for almost 7 years.
I like #cycling and try to keep some sort of decent condition with it. We have pretty good cycling routes in my home town. Photo evidence is shared on the occasion.
If you read this far, and share interests, give me a follow 😁
I really love delving into the older electronics of early solid state pinball machines. The score displays at first glance might seem like a typical 7-segment or alphanumeric LED, but they’re not! They’re plasma displays and take a mere +/-100VDC to drive. Pin-Bot’s aren’t lighting up, so I read a bunch and carefully probed and found that there was only -24V coming out of the -100V line. It’s either the transistor or the resistor, and the resistor failing is a known issue. #pinball
