I've just finished building a very basic database of cyberpunk media, games, and literature. cyberpunkhub.com/

I just got new pillows from @FrameworkPuter Very bad timing, unfortunately. I've ordered a replacement but it will take at least a week.

I'm on my way to the @home_assistant community meetup in London! Looking forward to meeting new people who like automating their hallway lights.

I got so tired of parcels being thrown over the gate that I ordered a sign to stop it. It was delivered today. Naturally, it was thrown over the gate.

All of a sudden, @home_assistant began remembering the selected default dashboard per user rather than per device. I can't say I like the change.

I remember insisting on proper ducting from the street straight into the house back in 2014. Everyone thought I was being dramatic. Fast forward to today, Openreach turns up and installs FTTP in two hours. Turns out long term planning is just smugness with a delay.

I am a responsible adult who does not waste money on pointless things. Which is why I just bought a Motorola Advisor pager on eBay simply because it is the most iconic piece of obsolete tech ever made.

Here is my take on a Battery Low sensor for @home_assistant It checks every entity with a battery device class and can skip those that have a special label. ⚡️🔋

Just did my first ever trick or treat with my 6 year old daughter. I was dressed all in black with a beard and a shaved head. Could not resist saying in a strong slavic accent “You better give her more candy.” The parents laughed nervously but complied!

I've upgraded all of my home switches and WiFi APs to @TPLINK Omada. It all ended up costing 1/4 of what Ubiquity would have costed and has been working rock-solid for the past month!

Down with Covid, too much time, no sense, so I hacked together a player that pulls full cyberpunk shorts right from the database and plays them on the site. Works as a PWA too: cyberpunkhub.com/player

This remains my sole reference for the patch panels, in use since the cabling was installed in 2013.

Currently the back cover of the smartwatch is still an unoptimised 3D-printed part, as I prioritised getting prototypes done quickly and iterating on the sensor board and FPC design. Now that this is done, I will have to create a proper injection molded part

New gemma3:270m sounds ideal for @home_assistant Voice but does not have Tools support.

Is it just me getting older and more cynical, or is the new Superman genuinely as bad as it seems?

I've just installed reverse osmosis. It feels surreal to drink water right from the tap.
