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 €200. 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 :(

It would probably/possibly work without them but the issue with folding kayaks on the sea or rivers is more impacts, there's a lot of rocks in the fun rivers and in the ocean/sea there's reefs and other abrasives.

Whereas with a rotomolded kayak its durable enough to even be used for rentals in those conditions. You pretty much don't have to give a shit with a rotomold since they can take a lot of abuse.
