I ordered yet another set of these. This time Bluetooth LED Lights Strips 32.8ft with APP Control, Music Sync Waterproof Flexible RGB Color Changing LED Strips Lights for Bedroom Room,LED Neon Tap. I knew I didn’t want Bluetooth, but that is much cheaper than WiFi and I really wanted the “waterproof” strips to splice intoContinue reading “Splicing LED Strips”

Dan Vasc
Wow. He’s got his own site, but I found him YouTube. I never thought anyone could do a more impressive Sounds of Silence than Disturbed. I was wrong.
Dinosaur Park
It’s an interesting WPA project on a hill in the middle of town. You cannot go through this hill; you must go around. This leads to a number of strange routes from “here” to “there”. The view from the top is panoramic: The view looking the other way is much the same, the hill beingContinue reading “Dinosaur Park”
Small Town Diversity
Our Fleet Farm has Gagh! How cool is that? The bag is $11.99.
Garage Victory!
At least I’m so declaring. The LED saga continues and the $1000 floor is not all that I would have hoped for that price, but it is ready for use. Judge for yourself. Before and After: It still needs a new door (steel frame, big smoked glass window, keypad entry), a new overhead door (insulated,Continue reading “Garage Victory!”
LED Strips
There must be a “all you need to know” guide out there somewhere. Heck, even Rule 34 postings might be helpful at this point. The biggest problem is that none of this stuff seems to have names or product standards. It’s all just word-salad badly translated from Chinese. I ordered two different products, on purpose,Continue reading “LED Strips”
Smoked Meatloaf

This resulted in ads showing up again, which I particularly noticed while finding a smoked meatloaf recipe. I ended up going with one from Smoked Meat Sundays, which is littered withContinue reading “Smoked Meatloaf”
Could it be him?
I can’t rule out that this is the Jeff Raymond I once knew. From Behind the Black:
Start Paying Attention!
South Dakota things are happening. I need to start paying attention to them. I stumbled across this school curriculum issue at PowerLine via InstaPundit. Ignoring stuff such as this is how I ended up having to flee, rather than fight for, Colorado. I must do better, here. I’m still absorbed in the “getting the newContinue reading “Start Paying Attention!”
Size Matters
But so do resolution and aspect ratio. My new monitor arrived, but it doesn’t work well with my old, sad (DVI) computer. This works great: The left monitor is generally RDPed into my work machine, which is sort-of visible behind the Amazon page. The right monitor is for internetty things. This computer is aging; asideContinue reading “Size Matters”
