1. Afternoon Ride

    A three and a half mile (five and three quarters kilometer), 131 foot (40 meter) elevation ride over a quarter hour in San Francisco, California.

  2. increasingly, while sitting at restaurants waiting for my food, especially when I’m sitting outside in the cold, I finely sharpen a hatred of the very existence of “to go” orders and the people who place them, places that take them, and the various services and go-betweens who enable them.

    everyone else is mad about qr code menus, but I get even madder about this.

    when I make a to go order myself, I’m a very special boy and would like my food please and thank you.

  3. only fitting that, having destroyed every pair of side cutters I’ve ever owned on guitar strings, I initially used a d’addario string winder/trimmer to cut the pins.

    It was insufficient and I finally broke down and caught a bus to the hardware store for a little pair of kleins to finish the job.

    my posting station, two apple studio displays on a white fully standing desk w/ a black embody chair. the desk is covered in entry level soldering gear, coffee cups, an NA beer can, and the kit, in pieces, during assembly.

    closer, later shot of my posting station w. the pdp11/70 kid and a bunch of parts in deli containers surrounded by junk from my soldering gear including electrical tape, masking tape, radioshack leaded solder that is probably older than I am, pickup, wire strippers, needle nose pliars, pinchers, and a cheap iron. A white d’addario string winder sits on the plastic container lid I’m using as a bench rest.

  4. got one of those neato pdp11/70 kits ( https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/pidp-11-get-one) for my birthday. I am shoddy with detail work and managed to only botch two soldering pin-throughs which were easy enough to correct.
