Hello there, Kyle here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s March 239th 2020. https:\/\/whatdayinmarchisit.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If going insane indoors wasn’t enough, my long time close friend and former roommate Justin Corwin died suddenly from a fast moving illness (not covid) on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me and Justin on the Ferry in Seattle a few years ago. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

He was an amazing individual who had more knowledge in his brain than I’ll ever be able the cram in, and still, somehow he was always a humble servant to all around him, leading Crashspace’s<\/a> officers as president and keeping it real as an engineer at Hyperloop and Disney Research. I could write a book on how incredible Justin was, and it still wouldn’t do him justice. He was still young (only a few years older than me) and his absence in my life will always leave a wide gaping hole moving forward. His kindness and generosity in life is something I can only hope to echo in his memory. Fair winds and following seas in what may come, you were a true friend Justin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I’ll take the time to do him more justice in a later post, because honestly, I don’t want to be that sad right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since last I updated, I built a workstation for doing CAD \/ gaming. it’s a 24 core 4.2 ghz beast with 128 gb of ram and a 2080 TI. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I also used my newfound business powers to get a 20 lb CGA-320 tank of food grade C02 and setup a super soda stream for unlimited cheap fizzy water at home. You can find the adapter hose on Amazon. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, as if death wasn’t a sad enough subject, I’ve also been for the most part, alone, in all of this. After pimping out the house and being alone and bored long enough, I got up to no good out in the garage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
