      I just tell myself that I should be happy that I can afford to buy the thing in the first place. There have been times in my life when I couldn’t, and it’s definitely better than that.

        I feel ya. Two still in their boxes JetKVMs and a new Pi 500 is just the start for me. Soooo much stuff, so much money, and hundreds of hours of research into all of them.

          At some point I had three, and thought of buying newer more powerful models or the small versions for tinker projects I will never do.

          Eventually sold and gave away the unused ones, the only one I have ever actively used is effectively just my music system (hard drive with music collection and my Hifi speakers attached via HifiBerry DAC).

          What’s worse, in the last 2 years I bought 3 hardware synthesizers and learned a shitton about sound design. Still haven’t created a single track or interesting patch with any of them.

          Right now I am writing a short story, because I had a cool concept idea. Maybe I will complete at least one hobby thing for once? Oh my dear ADHD brain, you do really have a will and life of your own.
