My mom got into adult lego when she took apart my child hood lego and reassembled them to resell.

Now we mail each other sets that the other is done with, and it gives us a great opportunity to connect. We're both anxious people and there's something relaxing about just assembling something where everything has a place.

When she found out there's a lego con in my town, she made plans to come visit me so we can go together and I can show her around the city I just moved to.

Wow, what a small world. That's what I love about HN. The people that make things you use are on it :)

I wish I had something nearly as impressive. I just have open source stuff that people use. Nothing recognizable though.

Also, I have a project in production at work where a device needs to grab its public IP address. My code has a list of sites that provide that info and I have ip4.me as a fallback in that list, so thank you for building it!

Maybe worth reaching out to Mozilla. That's the only actual non-profit I can think of who I think would have both the ability and the incentive to keep it online.
