So - Version one of the Phone booster seems to be working well... so planning on Version two. Dual switchable source batteries -
Wished I could plan these out a bit better,.. I order from Adafruit and a week later I seem to need to make another order.
If you're like me, that process repeats about 3 times.
I think I am already on order four,... and with the projects in the pipe line,... there will be more. I have several projects that could go with the RPi3, Arduino or BeagleBone,.. and I'll need a few ESP8266 boards as well...
I made a trip down to MicroCenter last week, just because they had a bunch of the hobby/maker electronics on sale. Micro Arduino boards for $3! A 3.5" touchscreen LCD for $35. Wifi boards for the Arduinos for $9. Now I've got a whole bunch of stuff I can do, and no time to do any of it

I like to make a twice monthly order to Newark / Mouser / Adafruit when I'm working on projects so that I don't get too carried away. This dovetails with my paycheques heheh.

Do you use maptools, roll20, or something else? We use maptools for a pathfinder campaign we're doing.

I don't, it's a 140 mile one-way trip from home. I like to head down on a weekend to catchup with my cousins and their families.

It's Super-Duper-Rebecca-Day, my wife's birthday. She doesn't know what I've planned for today:
- We'll start with a little breakfast
- A little bit of shopping after that until
- Lunch in some restaurant of her choice.
- Next would be sitting at the Alster and reading a book or something (shes really loves that).
- A bit more shopping in downtown Hamburg
- At 17:00h we will slowly start moving towards the Reeperbahn where Schmitz Tivoli is, a tiny but great musical and comedy stage. We will visit a show there at 19:00h (7pm).
- Maybe we'll get a cake and coffee before.
So basically a 'everything-you-like' day for her. Hope she enjoys.

... She got some back pain today, so we will cancel everything but having some lunch and going to the musical. "Dumm gelaufen" (like "Shit happens" in EN).
-
@thwr that sucks, sounds like you had a good day planned
-
@DustinB3403 quite a bit, but what's the point of having a "great day" with a lot of pain involved.
-
Just got ready for a lunch meeting I have scheduled for Friday, then I realised it was Wednesday.
-
@DustinB3403 I live right around the corner from the "original" Duff's. Not a fan though, too much vinegar in their sauce
-
Yeah I wasn't impressed either.
I bought their slogan, mild is hot, medium is very hot hot is very very hot, my ass.
Tasted like cheap buffalo sauce.
