@lerxst Hmm, not this time, but that is usually the ritual I follow for PC building 🤔

I know it's incredibly unhealthy, but sometimes I just wanna huff my 3D printer when it's printing with PLA.

Also got some festive dumb stuff functioning

@darac rocket surgery, of course

The pumpkin in the middle with the hard-to-see red LED matrices is my ancient wifi pumpkin project that I started (oof) about 10 years ago.

The amazing thing is the web-based control pad still works and I can load it up on my phone to control the eyes & mouth. I can also still plug in an NES gamepad to do the same.

One of these days, I really need to tear down that wifi pumpkin and rebuild the wiring. It's all just janky dupont-socketed wires shoved onto the component pins and then into a small breadboard along with the ESP8266.

I think all the connectors are getting tired, because I have to give everything a jiggle when I turn it on again for the first time every year.

@cwebber Ohhh, it is *dancing*!
