Thanks... need to have the other one done, too... so far, recovery is pretty easy... "if it hurts, don't do it". Even I can figure that one out.
Got a tip for us?

Turned out to be scam. When it was supposedly shipped, the tracking number didn't exist. After a few weeks, I started reading new feedback on the seller saying that they got fake tracking numbers. The seller didn't have a feedback when I purchased it. Now 100% negative feedback. Amazon approved my refund... and I mentioned on my original post that I would rather get the 2i2 gen3... but the price was ridiculously low for the Solo.
I storied the scam on IG. Someone who sells band equipment to schools, seen my story, and he DM'd me saying he could get the 2i2 gen3 at his cost... which is the same amount discounted by the scam seller (-$40). So now I'm getting Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 gen3.
My wife treated me to a PS5 after not owning a console for the past decade.

Only got one game and not a lot of time to play it.

Can you fix it so Max wins the final race and championship by some dodgy decision? ?My wife treated me to a PS5 after not owning a console for the past decade.

Not my latest purchase but a semi interesting latest purchase that has finally arrived. Never thought I’d be in love with a case but I am. The hype is real…

I think we may need to start a “Show off your Greenhouse” thread. I know I’d be fascinated to see it! Grew tomatoes and peppers for the first time this past year and learned a lot. I’d love to build my own green house to help control the serious pest problems of the humid Southern climate.
Poor lighting because of being so close to a lamp, but this is actually my last TWO purchases:

I got a Fintie Case folio for my iPad Air 2, a bonus feature on it is an elastic stylus loop. I put my Wacom Bamboo stylus there, and then discovered that Fisher makes some of their iconic Astronaut Pens with a stylus tip on the cap, so I bought that to replace the Wacom.
Fintie Case was less than $20 on Amazon due to being the "older model" for 9.7 screens, leather exterior and microfiber lining. Really nice quality item: https://www.amazon.com/Fintie-Case-iPad-2018-2017/dp/B06XSFVQJZ/
I kept it simple with the pen, opting for the 775/S-BLACK – Cap-O-Matic with Stylus with Black Barrel for $20.They have multiple color options for the 775 line, and also more expensive, all-metal bullet style pens with a stylus tip as well.

Yes, please do, it would be interesting - it always makes me laugh when you guys in the Southern US post pics of the your gardens and plant borders as it always looks like the exotic house plant section in our UK garden centres...
Good idea, I might start one. Which would be the best section to post it - Community Discussion or Picture Gallery?
Edit - I've started a garden & greenhouse thread in the Picture Gallery section
Post Your Garden & Greenhouse
Following suggestions on a different thread, lets post what we are doing in our gardens and greenhouses, and which country you live in etc. I'm in the UK (Sheffield) and when I moved into this house in 2007 the garden was quite boring and bland.. I removed some of the plants and reshaped...

Slowly collecting bits for a custom keyboard build, Boba U4T 68g tactile switches. Random image, I ordered 90 of them, going with either a 65 or 75% board.

A family member has a 40+ year old Bramley apple tree that needs some branches removing, so I've bough this Gardena 300P saw and combisystem telescopic pole

My watch has ended! No more POS 2017 butterfly for me, only M1 Pro goodness! Yes, I know my cables are atrocious!
Pretty big rabbit hole to fall into, this is only my first full custom one, only having a few different ones off the shelf.
Look at something with hot swapable switches Royal Kludge, Glorious, so you don't need to buy a whole new board and over time see what you like and don't. After you can try different key layouts and so on.
I've only used Cherry MX black, red, clear, brown and blue, Gateron black and Razer red optical switches. For me, I like heavier switches with a stronger actuation force. Lots of characteristics to each switch, you get a feel for as you try more. Good thing they're the cheap part of the build.
An old fashioned iPhone like communication tool, a thunder mug from the 1700s in heavy bronze only 5 inches tall. It's actually a small signal cannon used on ships to notify their arrival to a port with a big bang or to warn other unknown ships before using the heavier real cannons under deck. My wife now wants to use it as a candlestick holder ... oh well ?

I'm tired of the Pixel 6 (long story) and I miss the perfect size of the 12 mini...
