    Given how ubiquitous the capacitive touch senors have become I'm surprised no one has put together an open source option. I've gone down something of a rabbit hole searching and ha…

    Not exactly. Dutch Ovens are specifically chosen for their size and for being almost universally made of cast iron. Bedourie ovens would work if cast iron, but they often aren't. W…

    SCAR was I think the first programming I did. It was very good software, really made it enjoyable. So much so that SCAR eventually _became_ the game. Every morning before school an…
