Me and selfhosting :3

My hobbies are distrohopping and reading books

Cooking is a cheap, easy to start hobby with endless possibilities for development.

Astro-Photography.... quality of yoyr pictures is:

10% skill 90% how much you spend on equipment.

I used to want to make art

Now I just want to rest

I'm just so tired

Here's why bread making is the best hobby:

1. Minimal equipment and ingredients to get started

2. Amount of time is up to you. You can select a recipe that suits your needs. Plus you can go and do other things while the dough proofs and cooks, so if you make a 3 hour loaf, you still get some of that time back.

3. Most of bread making is working on your skills and knowledge and is highly rewarding as a result

4. You make tasty bread that will either contribute to your weekly pantry or makes a great gift for others.

5. Store bought bread sucks ass. Once you start making your own, you'll never go back.

I think the people I feel for the most when it comes to hobbies are the ones who are into computers/games, guns, and Lego all at once. Those guys could make six figures and would still be fucking broke.

Activism and community organizing is a great affordable hobby. Can’t say it’s easy on the calendar though.

Me: “fucking tariffs. I’ll never an Orion O6 now. Oh well.” Amazon: “hey, we have a close enough knockoff from orange pi now. It’s cheaper, uses almost exactly the same chip, and available in the US right now.”

-glares- God fucking damnit!

Did you know that the LD2410 can be wired directly into an ESP32 or equivalent because it operates at the 3V3 level and has an RTC GPIO that can be used as a wakeup pin? This is a huge upgrade from the LTR5-series of light sensing chips which all use the I2C protocol, because those need a UART chip on the device to handle the clock signal with a 5V open drain, despite being an easier 2-wire implementation. The send protocol of I2C slave devices are much simpler than the 1-wire or Dallas protocol used for multiplexing sensors, and relies on sending information bits in 60microsecond intervals when the clock bit is high, this ensures....

(don't drink coffee on the train)

For some cheaper options drawing, writing, reading, used guitars have been much cheaper the last couple of years, chess, fishing, meditating, retro gaming, learn a new language, hiking, try to visit all the parks in your city/county/state, discussing hobbies online, etc.

Try having multiple expensive, time consuming hobbies. Gazes at unfinished minis and drawer filled with whips and sex toys

I really need to buy a new lens for my camera. This meme explains it all for anyone who would like to ask me why I haven't bought one yet.

Me when I got back into horses after 13 years.

Send help, I have an addiction for grooming supplies. I own like 4 stiff bristle brushes.

I was like, “I’ll just check out Kill Team, that way I can limit it to just the starter set and a few extra teams maybe, seems fun.”

Anyway, I just need one more Eliminator Squad with a Phobos Librarian and another Redemptor and I’ll be up to 3000 points of Blood Angels. I’ll be dead before they’re all painted.

Aw c'mon, let the purple guy get addicted to skydiving.

I have always thought those little warhammer figuers look pretty fun to paint, and im sure theres like interesting backstory behind them too.

I got into target shooting. I really enjoy it, so much so that I actually felt like joining some competitions. My brain goes to research mode and I find out how much just booking time to train on active movement courses costs.

Yeah, I'll stick to plain ol lane shooting at the range, that's expensive enough.
