Nice, I'm excited about my next project (and I finish projects)!

So I'm just another guy trying to build a mosquito killing laser turret. We've got an idea that we know exists and works in practice for getting positional data for targeting mosquitoes. We're moderately sure it'll work with the raspberry pi (and friends) that we just got delivered, at least software wise.

Our issue right now is that neither of us have the knowledge needed to design the PCB we need to connect our sensors to the pi, and obviously it's not made commercially. And I don't think I have the programming skills to make or modify a driver.

So Monday we're gonna be calling around to various programs that are in line with our research to see if they're willing to discuss their solutions.

I love making stuff. It feels good, and life really sucks these days. I also love talking to researchers because they're so passionate about whatever their topic is, and they really just want to talk about it and for people to ask good questions. I ask good questions sometimes lol.

I can't explain too much yet because the patent is still being written. But oh my goodness I am excited. This thing really might work.

Looking forward to: My weekend.

Dreading: monday.

Referral to a spinal hospital and hopefully an operation on my spine. It has weird nerve spasms every few weeks that make me useless for a day or two. I just hope they can do something as it's beyond annoying.

My first GF of 2 years broke up with me a couple days before Valentine’s Day (I could make a whole post about this and I wanna respect her privacy so the short version she just wanted a friend for a bit and I even got her these clay roses on my college campus)

ANYWAYS I’m pretty much over it now just sorting some final things in the brain to finish processing but frankly her asking me out gave the confidence that chicks are interested and me I just gotta put myself forward

And I’m looking forward to getting into the dating world finally

The incoming water wars and significant climate caused migration that will result in dramatic and widespread conflict.

Lots of things.

Spending time with good people.

Fighting for a better world along people who care as well.

Looking forward for wonderful and peaceful moments.

There's also common life goals with family and stuff, that's great too.

Moving to spend the rest of my life on the beach. So close...

Not being asked a version of this question every other day or so.
