Besides that I purchased some new drones for local flying footage, and I'm starting to get into professional photography again as a hobby so I've been taking a lot of photos on my urbex trips and while I'm out in nature.

Uh, nice! My work includes maintaining software that creates terrain models out of drone footage via photogrammetry. What drones did you pick up?

And professional photography: Would it be possible to share some of these pictures?

Our wheeled and tracked vehicle simulator can load terrain models for use in our battle simulation, very useful...

I share the same hobby since I was a kid (my mom used to take photos) and it's, in my opinion, one of the best activities to ground a person to the moment.
I've been doing a lot of landscapes but going back 10 years or so, when I used to have a more active social life, I did a lot of portraits.
(I never found portraiture to be very compatible with being in a relationship, no matter how reasonable the partner is)

A boxed copy of Visual Basic v4.0 Professional, $12.49 at the thrift store. 20-some years later, I finally own it legitimately ;)

A Brno produced weapon, another vehicle I traded for my Subie, stuff to make my office less of a mess and easier to organize as I've finished with renovation and I'm just cleaning up now.

A second-gen Atari Lynx unit with an updated BennVenn LCD screen.




I've been a Lynx junkie ever since I was a teenager when they first came out. If you've ever used one you know the screen, while revolutionary at the time, is their biggest weak spot due to dimness, streaking, etc, but these new super-bright LCD replacements are the bomb.

Also recently discovered that flash cards with MicroSD slots exist for them, so now I just use 1 cart with all the roms ever made downloaded on to it, much more portable. Still one of the best handhelds after all these years IMHO! (PSP/VITA probably THE best)

Do you know someone who can fix a broken Lynx? Mine I think has the broken transistor issue.

Never have gotten to play around with a Lynx, but I found the hardware intriguing when I looked at homebrew info for it; you can definitely tell the Amiga people were involved.

I don't personally, sorry. But on eBay there are capping services for Lynx, it's not hard to find if you just search for them.

It was very good for it's day, in fact some of its earlier console ports are better than the originals themselves. This review pretty much echoes my favorites, still amazing that several of these games managed to run at 60 FPS on this thing back in the day!
