Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how's it going?

I'll try and not be distracted by other projects lol

Haha I know the feeling. I bought IR blasters due to a comment on Lemmy and one of these days I'll do something with them!

Haha. I know that feeling too well.

What were you originally thinking of doing with the IR Blasters?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Originally heat pump stuff, but then it got too complicated and also we were looking at moving house so I thought I'd wait, then I thought maybe the TV so I could turn it on and off but in the end I got a PC/TV remote which we use instead.

So they are just sitting there waiting for me to think of a new project 😆

I keep buying components cause they look cool, or I think I'll need them for some project later lol.

I use nice tactix storage organizers to try and keep everything organized, but I just learned that they've stopped stocking the "deep" version :(

I try not to buy stuff until I'm planning on using it, but sometimes plans don't work out.

My storage is to just throw it in a box of junk 😆

My storage started off pretty similar, then I added some storage containers, and then I couldn't find stuff so I repurchased things I already had etc, so I put together a simple Google Sheet with all my inventory lol. Might add which container etc, each part is located to make it extra easier lol.
