If you got one of my unassembled LEGO minifig head SAOs at @defcon.bsky.social, here’s the assembly guide, including an interactive BOM for part placement. amiedd.github.io/brick-head-d.... #defcon34

Headed to #DEFCON this week! Excited to see my hacker friends! I’ve made a few new SAO designs I’m bringing 😝
We are giving a tech talk at @hackadayofficial.bsky.social Supercon with @dr.supersat.phd in a few weeks 🩷 What happens when your body is the dev board? Dive into the wild world of biohacking, rogue experiments, and deeply questionable decisions in the name of science, curiosity, and chaos.
More PCB ribbons I made this year for @dragoncon.org, as always I use @kicad.org for my board designs ❤️🩷
Soldered something for the first time today since my cataract surgery. I’m super happy with the 2 color led technique and to be able to actually see out of my right eye finally! Those 1204 side LEDs and some hot glue magic for diffusion are my happy place right now. It’s soo cute! #PCBart
My mom passed away in 2021. My dad recently digitized all my mom‘s old photos from when she traveled. And now I’ve been going around the world retaking photos in the same places she stood. 51 year difference at Notre-Dame and the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.
Home from Paris. Can confirm @samantha-snyder.bsky.social and myself bought entirely too much fabric 🤣
Popping over to Paris for my friends birthday and to do some fabric shopping for my first quarter 2025 cosplay projects. Pink hair is making it hard to be in incognito mode 🩷🤣.
Simulating digital fit for corsets is difficult for me. I have a short torso and my waist is 18inches in a corset. Clo3D just don’t have the “tighten this like you don’t wanna breathe” feature to simulate corset patterns yet 😝 #sewing
When corsets only have a 1mm tolerance for accuracy, why cut the fabric by hand? 🤣 @xtool-official.bsky.social P2S laser cutter is helping me with my mockups :)
These effect build plates are soo cool!! It looks so pretty with my filament color, Blood of My Enemies ❤️❤️ #3DPrinting
Photo 1 is the $12 tariff tax I had to pay. Photo 2 is a order I made on January 22nd. Both from JLC, who I order from frequently, and this is the first time I’ve had to pay the tariff tax.
Paid my first tariff tax this week on order of PCBs for JLCPCB. My boards were $40 and tariff tax was $12 😡😡

Saturday PCB assembly using my cute mini hot plate from @adafruit.com and the SMD vacuum is my jam.
Side quest of the evening is done and I’m now onto finishing up these corset mock ups and listening to fairy smut. 🤣
I’ve been soldering for years and years and I never knew this existed. This little Surface Mount vacuum to pickup and place tiny components has been a game changer. I’m no longer losing parts that go flying in the void with tweezers.
Using a projector for my sewing patterns has helped me sew much…except for my knees 🤣
10 years with teal hair. I decided it was time for change. 🩷 Pink hair for my 40’s, wonder what color I’ll pick when I’m in my 50s 😆.
February’s PCB board is done and prototypes ordered! I’m trying to give myself more play time in my projects this year, with less pressure. I want to make one cute PCB a month for this year. February is League of Legends(to go with my cosplay). March is going to be a cute Van Helsing pcb. 💕
Captain Fortune cosplay is coming along! I designed the patterns in Clo3D. I’m thinking I will have to order custom printed fabric with the pattern for the pants. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I’ve used spoon flower before. ❤️
