    If you could “uncrop” the image, you’d see the stacks of abandoned hobbies that were taking up all the time before.

    Ah that brings me back to the times I had enough time to not only play miniature wargames, but paint the miniatures as well

      Back when the pile of shame was just the last blister pack you bought and there was more than 1 employee in the store.

    Digital circuits. Went to college for Electromechanical engineering. Got really into digital circuits.

    Got out of college and pretty much fell into computer programming. Fast forward several decades and I finally land a job with same hours and good pay with life in a semi stable state.

    Decide to hobby my enjoyment for digital circuits. Fucking chip shortage happens and getting MCUs and GALs (among others) become harder to get.

    It’s slowly gotten better, but it had me asking if the universe didn’t want me doing digital circuits.
