this will be another mass of clicky buttons that go to various things we want with a description of it and which Alter wants it if it's Alter-Specific as indicated by a signoff and singular referencing. outlined buttons that aren't solid are ones that are things we especially want or are especially important that we get and will likely buy ourselves at some point, but if we get it as a gift, we'll appreciate it all the more.

if someone buys us something, they'll get a shoutout below!

$20

this is a universal foot pedal that'll work with our sewing machine and it's mostly just here till we buy it ourselves but if we got it as a gift that'd be awesome

$120

this is a nice KVM switch that we want for the server and it'll let us switch between the server, the Nintendo Switch, and whatever third device we end up wanting.

$100

we want this for our motorcycle helmet which will be great for our e-scooter.

$37

Aleena: i want this for device and electronic repair as it'd make component management WAY easier, and it'd allow me to repair devices and stuff for people

$75

Aleena: i want this for the same reason as the repair mat, it'd make it a lot easier and way better for device repair and shit and make it far easier for me to repair devices for people.

$36

Aleena: this is a cool little random number generator that can feed the system's entropy pool. basically, when doing a cryptographic operation, like using a password manager to generate a password, or connecting to another computer via SSH, or even using HTTPS (the standard connection security protocol for the modern internet), your computer references /dev/random or the windows equivalent. however that pool is only fed by some things that aren't truly random. this device supplements that to make it truly random. in short: your computer can generate nonsense like "oogblaba" but this little USB thing can make it true nonsense like "OOgbl4bis4lit", which is used to make things more secure.

$90

this is a lockpicking set called the Covert Companion made by Covert Instruments and is a really cool lockpicking kit we want because lockpicking is cool and something we can do for work eventually

$35

and this is an expansion set of turning tools that are a must-have if we're gonna carry the Covert Companion on us in our EDC kit, because the base model only has picks.

$49

Aleena: this is a cool little game module thing for the Flipper Zero that i really want and would be awesome because it has a raspberry pi board built in, which those boards have MASSIVE capabilities

$13

we want this lil 6 foot cable because it'll be great for connecting the MNT Pocket Reform to our second monitor at our desk.

$300

Aleena: this is a really cool head and eye tracker combo hardware that tracks both your head and eyes, and it's compatible with open source tracking implementations. i'd love it for immersion and it'd be a really quite simple way of taking our gaming to the next level. they can also be found on eBay for ~$200 too, which is a much better price, which as long as it's not broken or blatantly damaged, i do not give half a fuck if something's bought secondhand, hell, i'd prefer you to tell me the store too if it's something like a hidden gem thrift shop lmfao, i'll wanna shop there

$360 or $560

Aleena: i want this drawing tablet so i can get better at drawing and have pressure levels of sensitivity and such on my PC, as it would make digital art way easier, as well as photo editing and other things. it'll also just be a useful display to use on my desk. 

extra note: it's a customizable bundle so the pen should be black top, blue and pink bottom, and the USB-C cable not the HDMI cable. also the 13 (higher price) or the 12 (lower price), but the 13 would have touch compatibility which would make it way more useful.

$24

we want this for our PC, as it'd be an upgrade, and a combo strip would make things easier and less complex in terms of wiring in the back of the PC.

$33 - fine nib (tip)

Aleena: this is a really cool fountain pen that's from a good brand and i wanna get into them bc they require so little pressure to write with.

$19

Aleena: this is a set of 6 colours of ink, and super cool

$80 - fine nib

Aleena: this is a really high quality fountain pen, much better than the other one, one i'll likely end up upgrading to if i get the other one and like it enough

~$30

Aleena: i want this for the 3D printer bc it's transparent and i could make a custom lampshade with it or something, and it also just plain looks cool.

$60

we want this for our backpack for preparedness and also to have a power bank.

$50

we want this for more account security in our online life and to keep stuff secure and solid. i also recommend you get one for yourself if you know how to use it

$16

we want this one for the curtain behind our main PC monitor

$20

we also want this tapestry to replace the curtain at the end of our bed.

$166

Alixian: I want this because it's really fuckin cool and would pair nicely with my gas mask.

$9

Aleena: i want this ring to replace my basic black one that i have now. size 10.

$50

Aleena: i want this SSD enclosure to go with the SSD right next to it so i can make a portable computer operating system install with Linux (you can do this, install the OS on the drive and then plug it into another PC and boot into the removable drive, basically a plug and play operating system)

$95

Aleena: this is the SSD that goes with the enclosure. it's 1TB which is plenty big enough, and it's also way faster than i need, but that means i can repurpose it eventually if i want.

$30

Aleena: i want this because it's a really cool bunch of filaments for our 3D printer which can produce some insane models

$22

Aleena: i want this and the other coasters next to it because they're awesome. order of most to least liked is as follows: Linux, ASCII, Git, Python

Aleena: this is a really nice docking station for hard drives and SSDs which would let me get the data off old hard drives and such, and be a great addition to my desk.

$130 x2

Aleena: this is a massive refurbished hard drive that's pretty fast that i want to have in my server as a massive RAID archive for data backup purposes, movies, etc.

~$60 - ~$75 (depending on sales)

Aleena: this is a solid 16 port USB hub with individual toggle switches. it's the same one i have on my desk so i know it's great, and i want it to use with my server in the basement that i'm gonna have setup for gaming, which with this i can have tons of game controllers connected as well as everything i need for VR, the only thing is i also need a really long cable to connect it, which is listed right next to this.

$21

Aleena: this is the long ass cable i need for the USB hub.

$50

Aleena: this is an awesome game controller (if you're into gaming totally buy one for yourself too) and i want it for use with my server and the aforementioned USB hub so i can have massive family game nights and such, i hope to eventually have 4 so this'll likely be here a while. please only get it if i'm getting the USB hub though

$10

Aleena: this is a two pack of some pretty sturdy cables that i want to use with the game controllers on the server for charging purposes, ideally i'd like 6 of them, but 4 would be plenty too. only get these if i'm getting the game controllers tho please

$15

Aleena: this is a really fucking cool patch that i DESPERATELY want for our backpack

$10 /ea

Aleena: this is a really tough and awesome lanyard i found a while back, and now since i'm getting new devices, i want some USB C to USB C ones instead of USB A to USB C, like i have two of now. i'd like to have two of each, and they're a great gift

$20

Aleena: this is a massive set of 100 little steel cable loops that'll be awesome to have on hand for things like the aforementioned lanyards, and really just any number of uses.

$170 - Limited Availability

Aleena: this is a transparent version of the Flipper Zero that i have, and i want the clear one to have as a secondary Flipper that i keep at home on my desk as both a second one to mess with, and as a version of flipper that i can modify, for example with an RGB mod. the only difficulty is that they're available in very limited quantities.

$140

Aleena: this is the Raspberry Pi 5 desktop kit, it comes in 8 or 4GB and i'd want 8 as that's more RAM, and since it's soldered, i can't upgrade it later, so i'd really want 8GB. that said, below there's a CM5 development kit that i would be able to repurpose the compute module into my MNT Pocket Reform once i've had practice with the thing.

$15

Aleena: this is a little ESP32 development kit thing for embedded applications that i wanna get to toy around with. i'd love if i could get like 3 or 4 of these, especially with how dirt cheap they are, and then i could use them for smart home functionality and stuff, or really any number of things.

$30

Aleena: this is a mini PC made by M5Stack that's a little mini card sized computer, and would be a fun little thing to mess with.

$120

Aleena: this is one of many different Displate designs i would LOVE for my room, but it's a textra one, which means it has actual texture to it. it's of the Pillars Of Creation, a portion of the Eagle Nebula out in space. i'd like it in large

$120

Aleena: this is one of many different Displate designs i would LOVE for my room, but it's a textra one, which means it has actual texture to it. it's a piece of art based on The Mandalorian, which in the Star Wars universe is an ancient warrior caste who have become bounty hunters for the most part since their people banished their warriors in favor of peace, but they've survived, along with their religion. i'd love to have it in large

$100

$100

$15

Aleena: this is a little flashlight thingy off aliexpress and it's compatible with a molle grid, which my backpack has. it'd be a great stocking stuffer, and it looks good, just be mindful that there's a variant that's $3 that's just the velcro board thing, which is also awesome, but the light's the main attraction lol

$70

Aleena: this is a nice low profile cooler that i want for the server i'm building, it's an upgrade over the stock cooler that comes with the CPU

$22

Aleena: this is a development board for SparkFun's stuff, and is an Arduino thing that'd be really fun to mess with

~$1 - $100+

Aleena: this is a link to the entire selection of SparkFun's QWIIC hardware. the MNT Pocket Reform has a QWIIC port on it, so i'll be able to use pretty much anything you get off this page, and if nothing else, i can repurpose it with one of their dev boards (one of which is listed next to this)

~$30

Aleena: this is a cool tape measure i found that has a magnetic hook, and metric and imperial measurements. would be really useful, and it's drop tested, so it'll last. it's also got 17 feet reach, so it can extend 17 feet without an issue, and it's got a nice slide lock

$150

Aleena: this is a Raspberry Pi CM5, which stands for Compute Module 5, which is basically like the Raspberry Pi 5 above, but it's meant for industrial applications, that said, it's able to be repurposed into the MNT Pocket Reform as they had a module for the CM4, but discontinued it, but the CAD sources are available, so i can design my own PCB to make it work. that said, i'd need practice with the I/O board next to this as well, but i can buy that myself.
Note: this specific version of the Raspberry Pi CM5 has 16GB of RAM and 64GB flash memory, double the approved maximum of 8GB RAM and 32GB flash memory, the seller (which is approved by Raspberry Pi themselves) modified it to have more RAM and storage, which for my purposes, 16GB RAM and 64GB storage would be awesome.

$22

Aleena: this is the I/O board for the Raspberry Pi CM5. it'll let me do testing and get things set up on it without issues, that way i can have experience with it before repurposing it into the MNT Pocket Reform, or buying a second one to repurpose if i like it enough.

$20

Aleena: this is a cool little EDC self defense and potentially window break tool. carbon fiber 25mm or both 25 and 50mm please.

$25

Aleena: this is another nice set of temporary tattoo markers for drawing on skin that i'd love to get, it's just in pride colours

all that listed, if you don't know what to buy still, here's our gift cards & go-tos, stuff we'll always appreciate, and can be much cheaper than the rest of the stuff here

this just links to an ATM locator, and yeah, it's a basic gift, but it shows ya think of us as an adult, and appreciate the tangible things in life, so it's a compliment to us

this goes to visa's site, i don't expect to get any of these but hey, we'll see, it shows you understand we have a big digital presence and want us to get something relating to that

these are great because we can get ourselves a game we want, and we also get the Steam Points to spend on profile cosmetics on the platform

if it prompts where to send the gift, ask for our system email as that's the one the ebooks.com account is linked to.

SHOUTOUTS!!!
