Quote: I hate command line stuff
Easy, peasy. I have a macro pad. Use it for VM passwords, most of the stuff I input to command line (Linux). About $50.

I used to do some coding on personal projects, but lost interest in messing with any significant coding outside of work.
Currently my main hobby is winemaking -- I have nearly 100 gallons in production, which will be bottled between May and November of next year. The fall grapes arrive in late September and October, so the cycle will start again.

Organizing family photos. Scanned over 11,000 photos since June of this year. Many front and back. Wrote a program to join the two sides into a single image. Uploaded all to GCP this weekend for its OCR and have JSON files with text. Working this week on a program to parse and organize the text to create an index of who is in the photos. Then putting on USB sticks and delivering to family in 6 days.....
Then I can relax next year

1. An Android lottery winning prediction program, since I noticed the numbers are not entirely random.
2. A human language learning app, transforming existing text into a modulated learning sequence of words and phrases.
3. A little Teddy Bear that walks and talks as in iRobot, since my son asked to make one 20 years ago.
4. A collapsible, folding piano keyboard that feels and sounds like a grand piano and fits in a briefcase.
5. Answering questions like this one.

3) Playing with Linux development --- currently writing (more like re-writing over and over) a programming language.
4) Sometimes I sleep.

In the summer months I make wood working projects that I sell at the local Independent Pharmacy
The profit is donated to Meals on Wheels
50 years ago a friend who owned a pharmacy gave me this display box when all the soap sold
Buy the Vintage 1971 Village Bath Handmade Soap Box Wood Advertising Display | GoodwillFinds[^]
These were batch produced but very exact so I decided to make my own out of Half Inch Baltic Birch Plywood
no glue just screws. they are stained various shades and 5 coats of my home made wipe on oil based Polyurathane
Price is $30.00 to $50.00 based on the wood used and workmanship.
As of now after 5 builds I can work to a tolerance of 1/32nd of an inch
My other product was to copy this box design with no screws and just glue
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4-KtUUtRvY
Built a few workbenches but where I live everyone is a DIY'er so sales not so good
plus they are massive 60 in by 36 in and 36 in tall with twin screw tail vise
made with 10 year old red oak 30 in wide jaws. They tip the scale at 250 lb

And I didn't even know sheep could knit! 
I'll get my non-sheep fabricated coat.

I'll get my coat and join you.

Last night I had dinner with some friends downtown. The wine was excellent and, after a few glasses, I decided to do what I haven't done before: I took a bus home. This morning I woke up and cannot remember where I took the bus from. It's still parked on the driveway.
I'll go take my coat and try to find where to return that bus.

I'm not often driven to fits of rage over tech, but the last time I used an Apple was one of them.
I'd like the OS designers over there to give me a good reason why they have their filesystem divided into "forks" and application files are distributed across different "forks" so you cannot find all the application files in one place.
The fact that Apple would fork their filesystem such that every application has additional files on a different "resource" fork has got to be grounds for a severe beating at least.
What is the possible upside of doing it this way?
I want to be a fly on the wall in their design meetings. I bet they spend more time talking about what color of brushed aluminum their products should be than they do about stuff like the above.

Yeah, it's really forked.
