I bought a set of LED headlights for the car and they arrived Wednesday. Installing them was fairly easy. It's amazing how much better I can see while driving out in the countryside.

Before that was walking out of Microcenter with 7 computers, and 2 power supplies for less than $50. (Raspberry pi picos)

I get a kick out of getting extremely cheap things in the mail. Last month, I bought a brand-new watch from aliexpress for less than $4 shipped to me. I thought I was going to get a cheaply made watch that would fall apart in a day. What I got was a well-made and sturdy watch. I suspect it will last me as long as the battery lasts. But a watch for such a low price., just the shipping and handling had to be more than $4. It's nuts.

Last month. I bought two PCs, a 14" laptop and one of those small 1L desktops. After about 5 years on Macs, I was excited to go back on Linux and have agency on my computer again. I got into computer by tinkering and the way MacOS goes out of the way to prevent you from doing that was grating. I crafted my own environment and while things are not as perfect as on MacOS, it's mine and I know enough to fix it. The Macs are still here if I need something that work well (zoom call), but with the PC, daily computing is fun again.

I periodically (~once/year) build giant Lego sets, and they're generally quite exciting to receive.

I ordered a two inch tungsten ball. Very excited to get it in 3 days, and hold it in my hand.

Last year, Tears of the Kingdom. I took the week off work for it.

Kinesis Advantage360 Keyboard. Solved so many RSI symptoms in one shot.

I bought a Kanjo mat on Amazon and was pretty excited when it showed up. It feels as good as I thought it would!

Really haven't been excited for anything. But the last thing I bought a couple of months ago was a Phone/Tablet holder that is pretty awesome from Temu. For $4 it was a great buy.

uConsole on preorder! Waited a whole six months. I thought it would be the size of a blackberry, though it is actually the size of a medium sized paperback book.

The craftsmanship is excellent and it is gratifying to hold.
