Out of Control :laravel: 🇨🇦outofcontrol@phpc.social
2026-02-12

Getting back to hobbies for relaxing:
1. Picked up the guitar after a couple of decades, 6-strong and 12-string. Fingers are killing me. On the bright side, discovered TuxGuitar. Wow, if I had this when I was 15 I would have learned so much faster!

2. My controller has arrived, and now watching the pricing on LiftOff on Steam, hoping to buy in a dip.

3. Homelab finally starting to come together. Maybe went a bit overboard though on the 12 disc array.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've been slowly chipping away at this page on my days off, and it's finally finished! Check it out!

I can't stand what social media has done to the hobby scene. I know so many people on/offline who feel like they can't "waste time" on hobbies, especially if they can't use them to make a few bucks on the side.

Hobbies can be *so* beneficial to your well-being, so I say screw side hustle culture! Do fun stuff for yourself!

When the 5K Stopped Being Worth the Effort

Daily writing promptAre there any activities or hobbies you've outgrown or lost interest in over time?View all responses I used to run 5Ks. On purpose. I paid money to wake up early, pin a number to my shirt, and jog through neighborhoods like a lost hamster while strangers clapped at me. At the time, I told myself it was about health, discipline, mental clarity. Standard lies people tell themselves when they’re still trying to impress their own reflection. Then something happened. I got […]

For #cosplay v.next, I cut two pieces of fabric. Mind you, it took several hours, 1/4 of which was spent rethreading my serger. The rest was making sure that the cut lines were bang on the money. #sewing #hobbies

I’m really liking how this scarf is coming together. I picked up this nice, soft, chunky yarn a while back and I finally decided to do something with it. It’s the furthest I’ve ever gotten with a project so I’m happy with the results. I definitely made a few mistakes but I don’t care, I’m just enjoying doing it.

<p class="has-drop-cap">They&#8217;re easy to spot, usually a small group gathered near an airport runway, cameras mounted on tripods, eyes alternating between the sky and their phones as they track arrivals through the Flight Radar app.</p>



<p>It’s a gathering of a devoted subculture: aviation enthusiasts, more commonly known as “avgeeks.”</p>



<p>Most of them can identify an aircraft by silhouette alone, distinguishing the Boeing or Airbus model before the wheels touch the tarmac. They speak in the language of fuselage length and engine thrust, of delivery routes and fleet configurations, with the fluency others reserve for sports statistics.</p>



<p>“I would say the Philippine plane spotting community is, in aviation terms, ‘top of climb,’ or at its peak right now,” said RM, who goes by @runwaymanila.ph on Instagram.&nbsp;</p>



<p>RM described it as “a niche community coming from all walks of life united by the love of aviation.”&nbsp;</p>

Struggled through a casual X-Wing tournament today in Bromley (masked up due to whatever I'm still suffering from) with a few of us from TNX, as well as the old 186th Squadron getting back together and a few from Mando Squadron, but here's some #Caturday pics of Loushkin to help people feel better ;)

She'd obviously prefer it if I had three arms, due to the hard stare I got every time I took a drink...

Loushkin, a calico cat, is sunbathing on a Persian rug, there's a sharp shadow just behind her, and her head is lifted up looking towards the camera with her eyes closed. Her front legs are crossed.Loushkin, sitting on my lap, giving me a hard stare because I've stopped stroking her to take a drink. Clearly I should get a third arm like Zaphod Beeblebrox.

One of my resolutions for this year is to spend more time enjoying winter and less time hating on it. It took a while for me to get started on that resolution, but I’m glad I finally did! I’d forgotten how much fun snowshoeing can be. 🇨🇦

Update 5:
Yesterday I finally moved my satelite dish in new mount, more stable and safer from where it was!

We screwed late afternoon, then I came today to do the finishing touches like better singal, tape the hanging cables and it's almost ready to go.

This one is pointing at Hotbird 13e and Astra 19.2, with 2 LNB's of course(as seen in the photo), and thousands of free and scrambled channels.

Mainly is used for live sports, but also events like BAFTA, San Remo etc.

Ps: I was thinking getting a new one, my fourth satelite dish, bigger, but it has to wait.

A footstool I made for my son back in the day. He loved Curious George as a toddler. Still does but not like when he was way younger. He’s Scottish/Brasileiro/Gringo & the name is fairly common in Brasil & Scotland.🐒

He aprovechado y he terminado el reroot que tenía pendiente. Me ha tomado toda la tarde pero aquí está. Me falta darle forma al pelo y vestirla. El pelo me está gustando mucho como le he dejado 🥰❤️

Muñeca Barbie de piel clara sentada sobre un mi pc. Tiene el pelo largo, liso y rubio claro, recogido hacia atrás, ojos azules y maquillaje suave. Está sin ropa, lleva solo la ropa interior moldeada en color beige. Al fondo se ve un televisor encendido y un mando a distancia sobre una mesa blanca.
