I rebought my old Walkman for nostalgia WM-FX415, which, according to current reviews, was a decent model.

A little more techy, I’m currently looking at this portable CD player that has Bluetooth and FM transmit. It’s showing as sold out though.

Monodeal CD707.

We invited another friends’ family over to sit at a table in our driveway. Had dinner, chatted, handed out lollies to about 40 kids, gave them compliments on their costumes. The 10 who were without costume got the same lollies and “Happy Halloween”. I remember what it is to be a kid.

The parents chaperoning kids around are usually not in costume.

As for our decorations and costumes, we had fake spider and snake out, I dressed up family members in a sugar-skull shirt, and I wore a NIN Ghosts shirt.

Before heading out front, my dad-joke got a groan, when I said, “I am dressed as ghosts!”

Fully free distro list

If you know how to source hardware that uses fully-free drivers, they are worth a look.

Guix and Parabola also look interesting.

You probably didn’t even know it’s pronounced Jimp too!!
