  • Nothing more satisfying than making something that cheaper, and also exceed the quality of buying ready-to-use product.

    CAD, EDA, IDE, and correct toolkits to the rescue!

    EDIT: In case someone want to delve in hobbyist/maker/diy world, here are some useful stuffs that available free:
    3D CAD:
    Freecad - FOSS 3D CAD software that available cross-platform.
    Autodesk Fusion - Not so great alternative but servicable, Free plan have certain limitation.

    EDA:
    KiCAD - Designing electronic project has never been so easy. This one far superior than Autodesk Eagle crap.
    EasyEDA - Free online and desktop EDA software that can be used for alternative.

    (Microcontroller) IDE:
    VSCode/Codium + PlatformIO - Most affordable, off-the-shelf controller are programmable with PlatformIO and enough for most average joe projects. Arduino IDE may be superior for newcomer but I recommend this as you have more leeway in which framework and board you can get out of single extension for Text Editor.

    Toolkits:
    Digital Multimeter - Most common electronics can be troubleshoot’d with digital multimeter to identify the problem.
    Cheap E-Bay caliper (or any cheap caliper) - For most DIY project, cheap digital caliper are enough to measure dimension unless you really need 3 digit precision.











  • As long as the bare necessities is available e.g 14" with HDMI, 2 Type C with PD and DP Alt, MicroSD/SD card reader, smart card reader(?), 2 USB A 3.1, 1x 3.5mm jack, 1x ethernet port, kensington and easy maintenance, for me it’s enough. VGA connectors (dang those older projectors) can be handled with VGA to HDMI adapter.

    My daily device is T14 G1 AMD with dualbooting separate SSD (M.2 WWAN slot used as SSD).

    If someone wondering how big is the Megami Tensei universe (the series as a whole), this picture below probably the closest I can get. There are other pictures too but I guess this one is the one that have connection between the games.

    EDIT: I remove the image link just to avoid the headache of the lore and consistencies.

    Imo what I like from this series (especially on the main line series) compared to the other JRPG games is that the mythology portrayal, the mature themes and the battle of “Law vs Chaos” is that great and doesn’t shy away from source material. I couldn’t explained it myself but it is just something different than your average JRPG.

    Read at your own risk

    Literally in one of the mainline game, you have to battle YHVH

    Oh and Megami Tensei almost always has banger OST if you all never played them.

    “Hey, you finally awake”

    EDIT:

    “I make my own luck”

    (Several monologue from ezio saga and kenway saga is worthwhile unfortunately I couldn’t fully text it all :( )

    “Guys the drill, go get it”

    “Ahhh, I need my medic bag”

    “Mission failed, we will get them next time”

    “ENEMY AC130 ABOVE!”

    “Engravings gives you no tactical advantage whatsoever”

    “Boss, try to remember the basic CQC”

    “The numbers mason, what do they mean” perfect response when someone suddenly pop in 6 digits nuclear code

    “Victory can’t be achieved without sacrifice”
