What are some (realistic) things you wanted to get for a while, just for fun? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I've got 3 on my list.

  1. BT-PAN Access Point - Kinda ridiculous, but I'd like to have one. I've also found a few BT-PAN-enabled dial-up modems, but I'd have no way to connect those up. Some of those could even be connected to USB printers for wireless printing. Not particularly useful anymore, I just find those devices interesting.
  2. Dot matrix printer - This one isn't even as ridiculous. I really love that sound and how the text they print looks. Sadly, if I am looking for new ones, a basic 9-pin Epson dot matrix is around โ‚ฌ200. But the ribbons are cheap as chips. In fact, often even cheaper. Just imagine casually handing out a document printed on dot matrix to someone nowdays.
  3. Nano pocket drone - Something like FQ777-124. Maybe a toy like that is a bit childish, but it still can be fun. In fact I already tried to order this one. From 4 different sellers, twice on AliExpress, twice on Amazon. I never got it :(

One of my favorite things living rural is the peace and quiet everywhere all the time

    IKR!โ€Œ If it were only more convenient (getting necessities without having to go very far, or just have them easily delivered), I'd probably love to live in a rural place.

    Right now though, I am way too used to living inside of a big city.
