Dreamcast Cable Update: Yes, we're still working to release them. We discovered a quirk impacting VGA video (being used to derive the component video) that was causing content to be shifted in some cases. We settled on a fix and are rewriting some code, testing, and deploying.

I actually do prefer long sleeve, especially at high altitudes. It helps prevent sunburn. But also who gives a fuck, let people wear what they want.
I learned this when no one from my last job bothered to text me or check how I was doing when I was hit by the RIF.
Maybe a big part of why I would never, ever go back to a soulless, life sucking corporate job.
I was laid off from my day job along with 170 others exactly 1 hour after this post because of inflation / interest rate impacts on my company. Very little cost for me too I guess! 😂
Chewy update: remained stable overnight and no increase in the blood in his chest so hopeful that whatever caused it has stopped. they will be examining a mass inside his chest today to get a diagnosis. we're far from out of the woods so your continued thoughts are appreciated
Once that's complete we should be able to ship the new parts to the factory and get this thing moving. Thanks to

who has been working with us on testing and deciding on the best path to fix the issue.
PS2 and 5x RCA Male-Male cables have hit the dock! We need to arrange picking up some samples to properly test (VERY IMPORTANT!) and if everything looks good we should be able to start sending them out to Amazon and distributors next week. Thank you for your patience!

: Back home. He's out of it from the anesthesia but he ate and drank and seems to be doing okay for the most part. Likely path from this point will be surgery based on the oncologists look, but we are waiting some test results first.
Thanks again to everyone for caring!
First, the good news! He's out of surgery, which didn't have to go to open surgery, the mass is out, and he's waking up right now.
There was a little excess bleeding and some other minor complications from the anesthesia and oxygen, but shouldn't be detrimental. They've got him
Chewy update: thoracoscopic surgery day today. I'll be sitting here half watching The Office all day to keep my mind off of it as much as I can. Fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly and the surgery is curative.
Fuck cancer.
Everyone, I'm sorry, but I'm going to be out of commission for a while.
Someone ransacked my lab last night. Almost everything has been destroyed.
Nothing was stolen, just destroyed. It looks like some of the online threats managed to materialize.
I don't have the money to
Chewy had hypercalcemia as a result of the cancer. Just got his bloodwork back from the post-surgery followup and his levels are back to normal. Great sign that they were able to clear everything. 🐶👍

Dear everyone who has bought one of these Ali express shells - how in the actual living hell did you get them to close properly? I’ve got 2 of these now that refuse to fit everything properly. Do not recommend buying. Pieces of absolute dog shit.
Several have asked about PS2 cable restock. I dropped the ball and didn't order in time to get more before CNY. But they are on order and should be headed our way in March. In the meantime I have a bunch of Amazon returns I'm trying to package up and get over to

Are intelligence and caffeine intake correlated? One study found whilst caffeine from coffee intake was positively correlated with IQ, tea consumption had a negative correlation. Caffeine intake from ground coffee correlated with IQ at r = 0.236.

property taxes kept me from ever realistically considering buying in Illinois. this is not an isolated situation. the state makes property completely unaffordable
Chewy update: Surgery consult today. Moving ahead with laparoscopic surgery next Thursday. Because the tumor is on the larger side of what they can do, could get converted to open surgery depending on how things are going. Also some risks given the proximity to large veins.🤞❤️🐶
got rid of a few switch games I know I don't have interest in revisiting. these things hold their value so well. another reason to not buy digital if you can avoid it.
Woke up this morning to the most insane alarm sound I've ever heard. Discovered it was the alarm on my basement sewage ejector. It's times like these ($2800) that I wish I was still renting. 😅🔫
