Second $10 garage sale 19 inch rack deployed. Found an extra 19 inch shelf I had snagged a few years ago! Need another. Much better than the pile-o-radios. #hamradio#project
Curious about our ArtNet based light control system?
We've created a web GUI that enables easy access to various typical vehicle lighting scenarios. The operator gets instant feedback about the currently activated scenario.
Our layering concept allows prioritizing lighting animations and stacking them on top of each other.
By the way: Animations are provided as CSV files. You're free in choosing the tool to generate these.
My latest pet #project: Replace the "free" #location sharing services with simple solution where one has full control of (a) data collection (b) data storage (c) data sharing/visualisation.
If you want to give this #GoogleLatitude like alternative a go, I'd be happy for any and all comments:
Today's coffee break project. Staining some found (curb) furniture. Stain is leftover from the disaster remodel here, so this now matches our bathroom cabinets, LOL. #diy#project#furniture
Many thanks to @Defolos: He explains some of the #history behind the #project, how the different variants differ from each other, how Tumbleweed's stability is ensured and what the gecko is all about.
Picked up this "AI" camera for $15. I'm going to see if I can integrate it into my existing Zonemimder setup (if there's a video stream I should be able to do something). Of course, only after I connect it to an airgapped laptop so I can see what weird URLs it's trying to connect to. Also, it seems to require an app, but I'm hoping I can get around that.
"Huge funding from influential conservative donor networks is flowing into groups affiliated with a conservative venture aimed at creating a Republican 'government-in-waiting' [i.e., Project 2025], including over $55 million from groups linked to conservative activist Leonard Leo and the Koch network, according to an Accountable.US review shared exclusively with NBC News."
I finished up my small baby transition/ comfort blanket. Imma try and sell it and make more.
Need to make something with the colours I have left. I brought a few large bags of overstock really cheap and wanna use it before buying new more sustainable or thrift store yarn.
Last Sunday we planted the chillis for #Project#HotSauce2024, and a tiny Tabasco just won the race for the first grown green this year. It's closely followed by a Jalapeño and a Reaper, which I expect to see properly tomorrow or on Monday.
We have gone with 36 planted seeds this year, six each of Tabasco, Habanero, Jalapeño, Cayenne, Lemon Drop and Carolina Reaper.
I'm particularly proud of this. I crammed a mITX motherboard (5600G, 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe) and a 650W SFX PSU into an old Samsung BT-120AT portable TV. I also managed to find a 5.6" 4:3 LCD to replace the original B&W CRT, and a circular LCD that perfectly fit the window for the AM/FM tuner. I have USB, HDMI, and C13 ports on a custom-made carbon fiber insert.
I have a few finishing touches I'd like to sort out: better power button, a screen to go behind the VHF/UHF tuner window, maybe a way to use the knobs for something (they're just held in place with hot glue at the moment). I also need to figure out how to talk to the circular LCD on the top, which I'll likely use to display system performance metrics. Still very happy with the progress so far!
It's running #Linux Mint, and it's going to serve as our entertainment center (I'll install some emulators, stepmania, maybe a few modern-ish Steam games). Right now it's just connected to our local Jellyfin server.
For the most part of my job I find myself right in the middle of this.
And I can understand and support both part.
What makes me laugh (and worry, a lot) is that nobody can understand that a trade-off is not a win-win.
A trade-off, in the large majority of the cases, is NOT a solution, it is only a temporary and short-sighted workaround where, maybe not immediately, everybody looses.
