The "get the fuck outta G-Suite" project continues, this time focusing on the unending list of email lists that spam me.
Back on the road…
The RC Car saga continues…
Thursday afternoon, I received the steering posts I ordered, two days early! Woot! So, I found a little time to get the front end of my buggy back together. After installing the servo arm upside down (d’oh!) I got it sorted out, I got out yesterday afternoon for some driving on the street near my house.
