Can anyone recommend a laptop docking station/USB hub? I need at least one HDMI or DisplayPort, 3x USB-A, maybe another 2x USB-C*, at least 3A @ 20V charging.

* Currently most of the peripherals I would like to connect to it have USB-B ports and cables with USB-A plugs on the other end. There are a couple devices I'd plug in with USB-C but I expect that to grow over the years.

#RecommendMe a decent left-handed tiny-ass drill bit for drilling out the damn broke off screw that holds the window crank handle to the crank mechanism. I bought the extractor set at HoDo and it didn't do -shit-.

I need a tiny-boy drill bit to actually get some purchase in this bastard. I was running a crank handle loosey-goosey but it finally stripped out last night and I'd rather not be going through a crank handle every couple weeks.

I don't have access to tool trucks.

With the kid in the house, I'm looking for a bluetooth transmitter to add in to my home stereo. Give me the ability to use my wireless headphones to listen to CDs and records.

I want something that runs on outlet power (i.e. not a battery to recharge), and that I can just run speaker-out from the receiver to input on the device.

I checked Monoprice, but the one they have is battery-powered.

@Mark do you have anything you recommend here?

Looking for a blender with a full variable rotary knob speed control.

The only ones I've found so far are the Vitamix and a KitchenAid. Everything else with a knob is a multi-position switch, not a proper volume knob for speed.

Is there anything under $300 with a proper speed dial?

Right now I'm using Google Drive to share photos, but I'd love to find a better option. I'm doing semi-professional shooting for a local comedy theater, so I'm looking for a more storage/access solution than something like Instagram. I would like something with reasonable assurance that my stuff isn't getting harvested for AI training. I'd adore something that was more in the open source camp. I need to be able to give others various levels of access.

Thoughts?

Sometimes at night, I’ll think of an album I wanna listen to when I work the next day. It’s fun to have that to look forward to.

Tomorrow’s album is Tears for Fears’ The Hurting. Do you know any other albums like that? Let me know! #music #recommendme

Anyone have a cordless mouse they recommend? The one I use right now is decent, but the plug in is at the front and therefore I cannot use it at all while it's charging because it wiggles out.

I am looking for a small mythical creature for a story in this series. I don't want a humanoid one - no leprechauns or brownies, definitely no fairies. But an actual animal-like mythological creature that's maybe a couple of feet long/tall max. Anyone have any ideas? The Google is failing me today.

Always fashionably late to the party, I just discovered PICO-8.
Really enjoying spodding through lists of charming retro-esque games, finding some nice ones that are flipping my switches. They're usually simple (by necessity, I guess) but often based on quite specific niches, which I'm sure breeds creativity.

Does anyone have any PICO-8 favourites they can recommend?

So I'm mentally spending my tax return, and I'm looking to get a new system with a primary focus on photo and video editing.

I'm looking at monitors that would play well with a Mac Mini/Studio. I'd like to go at least 27", minimum 3840x2160 res, with good(tm) color reproduction. The Apple Studio Monitor is top of the list, but it's also $$$$ and has a fancy speaker setup and webcam that I don't need.

Any recommendations?

Anyone recommendations for an #android web #browser that supports swiping gestures? Like swipe from left edge: open tabs. Swipe from right edge: open bookmarks.
Fdroid or least somewhat #FOSS and non-tracking would be nice.

Looking for an external HD to dump photos off my iPad. I have the camera adapter, so something that can talk regular USB would be my preference, though if it does Lightning natively I'm not going to complain. I think I'd prefer platter drive to SSD, cheap and long-term reliability is more important to me than speed.

(I'd love to upgrade to an iPad Pro, but that's quite a bit more $$$ than I'd like to spend right now.)

I realized that while I've read one collection of #solarpunk and have one yet to read, I haven't actually read any books that would qualify as #hopepunk, so that's my goal over the next couple of weeks.

I need that. Everyone needs more hope.

Open for recommendations! (I am putting in a request for Ecotopia now.)
