lmao i feel like this is the first time i've gotten a political text mentioning israel by name. dnc must be having a real crisis over there

i need serious, serious help

STOP SPAMMING ME

ok i got one. it is gorgeous but kinda sucks lol

i've gotten a surprising amount of value out of this little $130 screen

i flinched when going to buy a sony zx707 walkman yesterday and now they are sold out countrywide, production stopped, and ebay listings are +$200 i didn't need it (at all) but now that i actually can't have it i have giant regret. i hate it here

My silly PetLibro cat feeders are now ONVIF cameras and show up in Unifi Protect

anyway

perhaps the worst part is their stupid fucking ai support chat bot tried to gaslight me into thinking that since tokens are consumed by api at call time, its not required to actually give any sort of output. "oops, we used 'em already, sorry!" also shame on you too, intercom

so i decided to try /ultrareview because i was curious how much it costs. anthropic used $60 of my money on tokens and ultimately the review failed without a usable output. if theres anything that would radicalize me into spending $20k on gpus, its honestly probably this.

this feels super not worth it lmao

i just turned on my stream pc for the first time in at least five years and was greeted by the faces of two middle-aged japanese men (i miss them 😔😔😔) #gbf

Anyway, the hard part reverse engineering the PetLibro video protocol is done. Now for the fun stuff (although I just realized I have to do even more hardware hacking for cat devices in a couple of months)

both cameras at once

we did it fam

my cats are incredibly confused but i am serious about this

ai is bad but ai is also reverse engineering my cat feeder camera so i dont have to use their piece of shit app anymore to look at my cats so is ai really all that bad

5090s are good

the future of work

i went for a walk because i felt my blood pressure rising and saw one of the baby owls and now all i want to do is take my camera and go back to photograph it if i'm not creatively fulfilled by design, my attention will just wander elsewhere

whenever someone asks me to give a presentation, my goal first and foremost is always to make them immediately regret that choice

My homelab is sprawling. While some parts are well-adopted by others, @vusniere.bsky.social isn't using nearly enough of it. Most dashboard packages are single-user only, so everyone has to have the same start screen. Or they're ugly. Instead of writing an HTML file, I burned trees to make my own.

i'm deeply unwell

Then, I broke my back by disassembling almost my entire rack to swap out my switch for an even more expensive switch on paper thin reasoning... but it works, and i'm happy this actually probably took like 12 hours start to finish, despite my best efforts to move quickly

Anyway, yesterday I broke my back continuing to weed and clean my plant patches in the front of my house and started on the backyard

made a little site for selling my stuff yardsale.atelier.house got a lot more stuff to add but if you want something lmk

I added a track progress indicator and scrobbling to this since I'm just listening to music at my PC in this app now. Adding scrobbling means it works with jedmund.com 🙂

Congrats on another Guild Wars in the books! I did a lot more than I expected to—including getting 19 celestial drops—despite having a full day where I was inexplicably down in the dumps. #granblue #gbf #グラブル

should i have spent time making this? probably not, but we're not in any rush over here
