Instead of paying $10/month for a music subscription, I buy 10-15 albums a year, mostly on bandcamp. I self-host Navidrome so I can stream my music on my devices.

Win win

We run this at work so we have forever copies of image tags and to reduce dockerhub rate limit issues. Works well even for a large dev team.

I ran a 1650 super for a while. At idle it added about 10W and would draw 30-40W while transcoding. I ended up taking it out because the increased power wasn't worth the slight performance increase for me.

I just started Chained Echoes, another snes-style rpg

Love me some turned based strategy. I'll put it on my wishlist

Defragmenting often to free up some precious megabytes. I felt like the king of the world upgrading from 4 to 20 GB.

Now I treat a few gigabytes the way I used to treat a few megabytes (like they're nothing)

Memos fits a wide variety of uses and is the first note system that has clicked for me. I use it for quick notes so I don't forget things, journal-like entries, save for later (like Pocket), shopping lists and other todos.

I have the GoControl zwave thermostat. It's very barbones and has no real smarts on it's own but can be fully controlled by zwave. This is what I was looking for as I wanted full control over the algorithm, but if you want to it have more intelligence without having to write the code yourself you should consider other options.

Fair, but I traveled for a music festival and saw lots of people pulling up their phones to get a few hits of TikTok/insta when there was a small lull in action. And most of them were with friends. Just enjoy your surroundings.

Maybe I'm just old, but I traveled by plane recently (I don't fly very often) and seeing everyone around me mindlessly scrolling short-form video content was shocking. Looked identical to the people in the space ship in WALL-E.

My wife's parents have a decent plot of land and always go out for a mow when they're bored of us. I guess it's better than staring at their phones.

At least with junior devs I can hop on a call and show them better ways to do things or why their code is failing. And the good ones eat that up and get promotions.

Can't say the same for LLMs
