Hey there! I’m Miro and I’m the creator of “Lil’ Ninja”. The whole saga begins with my board game, where you’re tasked to bring the crown to the king. There is a little 1 page comic on the rule book! I dream about a whole universe (anime, video game, etc). Time will tell!

Doing my weekly winding of my grandfather clock made me realize. This 1600s technology lasts a week. I have to charge my Apple Watch nightly. 🤦

I'm thinking of starting up a wordpress site to kind of collect all my thoughts and projects, etc. Pretty sure nobody would ever read it, though I could always repost it here. I'm a bit concerned about security. It's gotten a bad rep over the years. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

Was just watching The Super Mario Bros Super Shoe from the #80s. Mario fell and said “Ow! My aching pasta noodle.” Uhm… w… what are you talking about, Mario?

It's been a while since I've posted on BlueSky. Kinda feels like I'm fishing for friendships. Maybe social media just isn't my thing. Anyone else feel like that? Or am I just speaking into the void?

There's nothing quite like finding a take you don't agree with on Reddit and seeing lots of ppl supporting that take. You realize you can quietly remove hundreds of karma in the form of downvotes to individual posts.

Had occasion to watch an episode of Mister Roger's Neighborhood this morning. Such a great palate cleanser for modern life and a reminder that we once strove to be kind, patient and friendly to one another. I grieve the loss of those days, and I hope they come again.

I think Blizzard had the right idea w/ WoW Classic. But they stopped too early. What do we need to do to make Internet Classic?

“3D printing will change the world!” Me: “What if I print and Easter Island head and put googly eyes on it?” #3dPrinting #geek

ChatGPT just dropped this gem in the midst of a response to a rant about python, pip and externally managed environments. I nearly spit my drink. 😆

I really don't understand ppl who enjoy Dead Cells. I just spent over an hour on the 1st boss and I don't feel like anything was gained from it. Now I've started over again and I know I'll have to fight him again. How exactly is this fun? #gaming #DeadCells

Got donated this smol boi and loaded it up with MX Linux Fluxbox. Random puzzle box for scale. Might open it later, IDK. #Linux

Had a great time GMing Tales from the Loop last night. We finished “The Recycled Boy”. Radical #80s fun! #TTRPG #TalesFromTheLoop

After a few months (half of which was waiting on shipping), my #RaspberryPi Pico powered Magic 8 Ball is complete! A tilt sensor turns the screen on when you rotate it and it cycles through about 30 phrases. #DIY #Tech #Electronics

An office of a friend of mine recently closed and they asked if I could scrub the PCs, put a fresh OS on them and donate them. What better way to spread the good word about #Linux. 😁

PSA: When designing custom PCBs, make sure you have the pins in the right position. I swapped my + and - pins for my booster and now it’s… well, I had to get creative. #DIY #RaspberryPi

Phone rings Me: Hello? Caller: Hi. Who is this? Me: who is THIS? Caller: John Me: Hi, John John: Who is this? Me: Why? John: You texted me Me: No I didn’t John: Yes you did and I need to know who you are so I can tell my mom. Me: Nope! Hang up and block. …continues

5 minute later… *RIIING* (A different number) Me: Hello? John: Hi it’s John again. Me: FFS! *hang up and block* 5 minutes later… *RIIING* (A different number) Nope! Block 5 minutes later… *RIIING* (An UNKNOWN number) OK… Settings, no unknown numbers. Focus mode, only allow contacts. JFC, John!

A cool weekend project! I found this modular model kit made by Rolife. Later on I can build another one and snap it to this one, effectively making a larger and larger building with different, unique rooms.
