Hah! Have some AI metal slop with these as lyrics. suno.com/song/34d9d77...

Email client feature request. “Hide bullshit email signatures”.

Wonderful as always!

Meanwhile. In the labour thunderdome.

Boot into windows for the first time in a decade. Now for some reason I’m part of a Microsoft online shopping cashback scheme. Wiped and installed proxmox. Computers are weird in 2025.

Home assistant makes you want to automate and graph too many things. The latest is spotting if I have a tea problem.

Half expecting Trump to hold a piece of paper aloft and proclaim “This is the best peace in our time, the best” after his chat with Vlad.

The poor bastards don’t stand a chance.

YouTube video by Wolfgang's Channel What's on my Home Server 2025 – NixOS Edition

I’ve become somewhat of a homelab hobbyist. Just as I get most of my stuff in docker… this video makes me want to play with NixOS. youtu.be/f-x5cB6qCzA?...
