Well, I had a nice post streak going but I was out yesterday with a migraine. Feeling a lot better today, still exhausted though.

The PiRTC showed up the other day and I've ordered a second. One should go on the server, another should go on the deck... though I'm adding the Jetson Nano as a desktop. It looks like it has an RTC but I have to solder a battery holder on. Something to think about.

The Pi Zero, case, and Qwiic shim should be here today so I can add one of the ATECC608's and maybe make a TPM-analog. The case for the cyberdeck shows up tomorrow, and I can maybe dig up my hot glue gun. The seller of the Kaypro also shipped it via Fedex and that should be here today, too; I don't have the boot floppies for it yet, I've ordered them - from a seller in the Netherlands, meaning they likely won't be here for a while.

Slowly thinking about time specs for the cron project; it seems to me that it should support only hour, minute, and day of week, day of month so as not to get too complicated. Even that's needing some thinking. Probably should just write down some examples and use that to work through everything. There's the question of how to store the last time a job ran, maybe - it might not matter. Gotta think through that.

The Kaypro was just delivered... I don't have boot disks for it, and I also need to make space for it on my desk. The seller advised me that I should consider recapping the PSU, so I may inventory the caps and try doing that in the meantime. The next step is to figure out how to add a WiFi modem to it and make a Gemini client.
