you should definitely release a bunch of opossums in your house

Had an awesome father's day weekend and I am taking today off.

Due to information on Google / YouTube, and a delivery from Amazon today, Replaced this and this With this And this Thanks internets! EDIT: and yes I did remove the plastic bags, first

Guess who's iPhone just decided to lose the entire music library a day before a 14 hour flight home? At least the U2 album is back again.

Chris, thanks for putting me over the edge and finally on 165mm cranks. I only have 40 miles or so on then but I feel more efficient and it's easier to push the pedals "over the top" if that makes any sense.

I feel like I'm not even needed around here anymore.

I've been told it's a bit on the skinny side but thanks.

If you're happy, I'm happy. Moar watches!

Speaking of killing - came close to doing so to a drone whose pilot evidently thought he'd improve his remote piloting skills (was several hundred yards away and obviously using a camera) flying low under, over and around play structures in a populated childrens park. Dude? Also had fun at a park.

Yeah, he might be banging his boyfriend.

Father's Day Filet.

You can adjust the cascode without hooking up the high voltage power supplies, by using a 15-20 volt supply (2 nine volt batteries in series will do). Connect the positive terminal of the battery to the positive PS terminal on the board and the negative battery terminal to the end of the 100 ohm resistor closest to the 100 ohm trim pot. Then put a meter across the 250 ohm resistor and adjust the trim pot until you get 2.5 volts, which corresponds to 10 mA for the current source. If you can't get to 2.5 volts, decrease the fixed resistor to 200 ohms, and adjust the trim pot until you get 2.0 volts across the 200 ohm resistor. If the voltage is always higher than 2.5 volts for the 250 ohm resistor, replace it with a resistor around 300 ohms and adjust the trim pot to correspond to 10 mA.
