Dreamt I was fencing with a woman while the song "What I Am" played in the background The woman had just been fencing against a friend of mine, and she was a cheat and a sore loser. She lost to my friend and was insulting her. When I stepped in to defend my friend, she challenged me to a duel.
My algorithm here broke again and now it only shows me people's pictures of plants. This is actually a huge improvement to this site.
This has been a quixotic quest for no reason other than to see if i could do it, but I did do it: I've created a ceramic circuit board with copper traces that I can solder components to. Here's a little astable multivibrator circuit running on stoneware.
