It's super slow, but still pretty cool imo!
I couldn't get any of the lighter interfaces working for some reason.

It would be nice if I could basically just use it as a Web browser, nothing else.

Last month ago, I ordered some cheap BLE temperature/humidity sensors from eBay. They finally arrived last weekend, and I used an ESP32 with #ESPHome to get the sensor readings from them.

Initially I just wanted a sensor for the utility closet as that's where my #homelab lives, but the sensors were quite cheap so I bought a pack of 5 and put one in each room. The living room has not been comfortable this week. 😅

Cooking the wagyu on the stone

We went to a Japanese Steak and Sushi restaurant for our 6th anniversary yesterday. First time I have had wagyu steak. We had to cook it on a hot stone. Unfortunately, my skills with chopsticks are lacking, and so I had trouble taking the steak off the stone so I ended up slightly over cooking the steak. It was still so frigging good though.

From reddit. It made me laugh.

Finally managed to factory reset the BMC on this server. I ended up having to pull out the flash, and reflashing it with a raspberry pi 😅 kinda crazy that there doesn't seem to be any easy way to factory reset it (according to gigabyte)

Technology has truly come so far. Water, made from other bottles! Amazing.

Just watched The Tomorrow War. I quite enjoyed it. You have to kind of turn off your brain, and ignore a lot of plot holes, but I definitely enjoyed it. #nowplaing #nowwatching #movie #movienight

Finally got my lab #k8s cluster fully switched over to #FCOS. No more docker here! Only CRI-O.

Funnily, my "production" cluster has been running #FCOS for the last 4 months. In-fact it updated automagically from #Fedora #CoreOS 33 -> 34 automatically without me having to do anything thanks to Zincati.

First dose done.

Just watched a Thai movie called Bad Genius. It was very good. I liked it.

My wife whenever the weather has become warmer, and I decide to make cold brew #coffee 😓

It's my coffee! Don't touch :(

I really need to replace this server, or at least move it into a different case. At the moment it lives under my desk, but it means I can't tuck my chair in properly, and have to sit in a weird position.
I built it years ago, when I had a rack to put it in.
Ideally I want to replace it with something much more modern, and consolidated some of my other home servers, as most of my home servers are quite ancient and not very energy efficient.

Rain is very welcome after the last few days of hot weather.

I love the hot weather we've been having, but sometimes you need a small break from it too.

Drinks like this are why I'm getting fat.
I like aloe drinks, and I love lychee. Put them together and i just can't resist.

I don't know much about American politics to be honest, but from everything I have heard about AOC, she seems like a real badass. I like her.

What kind of screwed up logic is this? "If I don't steal it, someone else will" #savesheikhjarrah #savepalestine

The things happening in Palestine are so upsetting #savesheikhjarrah #savepalestine
