What're you up to this weekend?

I'm going to tinker with different soundcards I have, USB and PCI to see which is better at storing and playing audio from old vinyl records that I have.

What do/don't you have planned?

    That’s what I’m hoping to get to. The CNC has the controller board on it, but it needs a computer to send the instructions to it (is it also gcode for these things?)

    I was using a laptop to run it but then I upgraded to a Mac Mini so the Raspberry Pi is the only thing portable enough (with an old little TV).

    That’s one feature I really enjoy about the Ender 3D printer - it has a little SD card slot, so it runs by itself.

    But… today we were rock picking haha… and as we were leaving there she starts telling me her plans for tomorrow’s work goals Laughing.  Why is the rainy season taking so long to get here!! Wink

    Installing and learning some hypervisors. I’m thinking proxmox and xcp-ng. The new owners of the most popular VM software are making it hard to keep using them.

    Attending an artisan Japanese sword making craftsman somewhere near Tokyo.  Probably not quite the intention of the original question, but there you go!

    I build all of the electronics, and he designs all of the prop pieces (3D printed skulls and arms).

    I'm working on a fancy time-lapse camera for my 3D printer.

    I keep meaning to set this up, particularly with Octoprint, and connect it with a login system for my local hackspace.
