Partner? Special? Huh?

Tacos and margaritas at home. Couldn’t have asked for a better night.

Make your significant other a card and a plan for another day. It’s a commercialized garbage holiday. That isn’t to say you shouldn’t have a day to do something nice. But why do it when flowers cost 4x and restaurants are packed? Make it a point to do something next week.

At least that’s what we do…

Otherwise cook, make something, go somewhere new in the city (a park, an arm museum, etc.)

My partner and I do all the regular couple stuff for Valentines. Write eachother cards and little gifts, a nice dinner etc. But we also spend a week or two making art together, just little drawings and what not, and we turn them all into stickers and give them to our friends like Valentines in elementary school. It’s our way of sharing the love and making the holiday more about all kinds of love, not just romantic love.

Was planning on reading blood meridian. Don’t ask.

Picking up snacks and playing Factorio with my wife.

My wife and I have done White Castle table service every year since we’ve been together, except for the year they didn’t do it because of covid.

It’s a lot of fun, but I don’t think there will be tables available on this short notice.

Ate rice pudding out the tin. Ex gf messaged me to wish me a happy valentines day and wanted to know if I am with anyone as her partner is up country working for the evening. I am seeing someone but she’s ill and im ill so just rice pudding. And payday 2 🙂

We ordered in from our favorite Indian joint. They’re a little expensive so it’s kind of our go-to “special occasions” treat.

Kinda late seeing this post now, but anyway, basically nothing.

Well, OK, something special, but I haven’t even realized it was valentine’s day. I received 2 packages with following items: Linksys WRT160NL, Linksys WRT54GL, 2 Heltec LoRa 32 V3 boards with case.

First I flashed the WRT54GL with stock firmware (4.30.12) as I just wanted to have it, not really use that anymore. 4.30.12 is the oldest firmware I could find for it unfortunately, as 4.30.12 discontinued the EasyLink Advisor (edit: only LELA v1.6, sorry). But at least it has the old Linksys UI.
The WRT160NL I flashed with newest version of DD-WRT. I also accidentally broke off the remaining fragile plastic clips when opening it up, but there’s still 4 screws to hold it together. I don’t even know why those clips had to be there anyway. Oh well.
I got both for €0.05 in an auction :)
The Heltec LoRa 32 V3 boards I flashed with Meshtastic firmware, and that’s what I was playing with for rest of the day. So far I only tried range of the Short Fast preset, and as expected, it’s almost none. It can go through like 2 or 3 brick walls and I got a contact from it at 150m. Well, I guess that’s impressive enough, but it’s time to test Long Fast (default) and then even the Very Long Slow or perhaps try some manual settings.
Still though, the only person I can message is myself, as usual…

Nothing. Sitting on my chair just like everyday and play games or research stuff.

I went out for dinner with an ex. They asked if we could do something since they have been having a rough go of is as of late. Good fun, plenty of conversation, the meal was okay at best but we tried some new foods and pretty much called it a night there

Not much this year. There aren’t a lot of opportunities for me this year, plus a few things loom on my mind.

I finished building a fuck machine last weekend and I literally fucked myself silly. No thoughts, head empty, giggly removed silly. Great time, 10/10, highly recommend to anyone open to the idea of putting something up their butt.
