Big Mess o’ Wires


A home-built CPU, and other messy electronics adventures

Swag

The BMOW stickers arrived today, and they came out perfectly! Mmm, one thousand delicious 3×3 squares of BMOW goodness for the Maker Faire.

I only wish I’d made them larger. 3×3 doesn’t feel as big as I’d imagined it would. Still, they’ll make a great give-away for the Faire.

Totally unrelated to BMOW, but the mailman also brought me my new Vibram Five Fingers running shoes today:

    Hey, what’s the verdict on the Vibrams?

    Yeah, what Andrew said. Those look like they’re either totally great or totally not. They really look oddly like they’re great.

    You’ve got to be joking. And are those peg-leg jeans?

    I was looking at those a few days ago, how are they treating you?

    Really impressive and great project! But those shoes are truly disgusting!

    Get the all black KSO’s. Been wearing mine for a while and absolutely love them (running, hiking and around the office).

    Very impressive project, grats on getting it to work. Request though: could you place a dead moth under a wire someplace and take a pic? I’d like a current pictoal reference to where the term “computer bug” came from. :) Cheers!
