Came across an old trackball mouse (wired, so... old, but USB, so... not *that* old). Plugged in and immediately realized why it had gotten buried in the #deadtech box. Took it apart and maybe fixed it? We'll see when the epoxy cures.
Out of curiosity, I checked what new ones go for. Fifty dollars?! Even the cheapy ones with names like AFIPYIN are US$30.
I'm not sure how much I really need it, but I'd rather fix than buy.

Nooo! After all these years my Pebble smartwatch will no longer turn on or charge. So bummed.

Hey all! I am a self described #feralresearch -er (see bio for link), #artist, #designer, recovering #academic and internet old person.
I write, teach, lecture about and build things (software mostly, hardware sometimes) that overlap technology and culture, #digitalscenography and #narrative and #performance. I am currently senior systems #designer for #vrchat. I am occasionally (and professionally) a fox on the internet (#queer subcultures will save what’s left of us)
Most recently I am working on #maps and #mapping software for #dh and beyond, a locative #ar project about the history of #MTV, and #digitalphotography and image-making, especially in VR.
Interested in: #videogames #deadtech #zines #queer #subcultures, #furry, #lowfi #lowtech #interactivefiction #locative #media #ar #vr #mr #music #sound and #food
