  I did some turning on the lathe. I'm starting to feel less
  like a total newbie, which is a pleasant feeling. I am not
  "good" and I'm rarely even making things that have a
  purpose, but I'm less bad than before and it's all giving me
  a better appreciation about how things in the real world are
  made.

  The Pi400 as a Linux desktop is working _pretty_ well. It's
  NFS booted which is good because it's silent and most of the
  time it's fast (because NFS-to-SSD is still better than many
  SD cards) -- but when I saturate the network and the NFS
  process hangs the whole machine becomes unresponsive -- even
  down to the mouse going sluggish. Maybe GBe shares USB on
  the Pi, still? I know it used to in the 10/100 days.

  I am obsessionless right now -- I don't really want to do
  anything, even though I ironically have time at the moment.
  I did dig out my Circuit and noodle with some music this
  evening, which was nice.

  I'm also reading the new Neal Stephenson, which is a total
  downer so far, but I do love his writing -- post 2000, at
  least.
