Second year in a row missing #stateofthebrowser . Last year Dom and I made a sword. This year I am FRANTICALLY prepping an 8 hour DnD session for tomorrow. Excited to keep up with the highlights on social.

Twinning with the set up, I like the data being separate from the server. Synology NAS + Thinkcentre has been great. Finally got round to setting up tailscale too and now I can access all me services when I'm out and about.

The self hosting rabbit hole is deep and never ending.

bonus points if i can snap a picture of a book and it adds it to my TBR list, or tells me its already there.

T'was a folly idea where I wanted to try and use the M1 Mac for doing some nice transcoding with Plex in real time, but it has just been a complete pain. Instead, I have this lovely old think-centre thing from eBay, which absolutely covers all my needs.

Like I want one app to open for:
- Adding a book to my to read, or bumping it up
- writing down thoughts about a book while listening to audio version
- reading a book
- also reading RSS Feeds and blogs.

I find myself longing for a like β€œreading” platform. That is Storygraph + readwise reader + audiobook server + notes/highlight aggregator + epub hosting and syncing.

My mac mini network mount has failed for the last time. Gonna move the remaining containers over to my thinkstation linux box this weekend.

I am putting this out into the universe and search results: Do not use a mac mini as a home server if you’re mounting data from a NAS. It’s not worth the faff.

Whenever I take the Eurostar it feels like living in a lovely alternate future where the UK is a full groovy part of Europe.

The urge is rising in my to take a punt on a colour e-ink tablet again.... Between Remarkable Paper Pro and the Boox Note Air 5C.

God I wish boox did a tablet with the Gallery eink display tech.

It's this bizarre faustian bargain with social media platforms. On the one hand connection, entertainment and many other things. But there's always a cost alas.

Finally on the home assistant hype. Not for a lot of things, but having the hallway lights turn off when i press play on the Apple TV in the evenings is great.

God damn this is cool as hell. Immediate purchase. This plus an e-reader might be the perfect set up for me.

A faux command line asking if the user wants to "execute deal now" with the discount code: THAT_DISCOUNT_WEEK

A faux command line asking if the user wants to "execute deal now" with the discount code: THAT_DISCOUNT_WEEK

Finally sorted out a black friday/cyber weekend discount for my Terminal Training course.

66% discount with THAT_DISCOUNT_WEEK on the "Master package" - terminal.training

38 videos, perfect for anyone who was faced with "just open the terminal"

God damn it, Tim Berners-Lee's book "This is for Everyone" is gradually warming my frozen heart.

It's been a long time since I've felt optimistic about the web again.

Gotta say, whatever the React Flow folks are paid they should be paid more.

Every AI Startup and their cousin is using it for the primary interface.

Hrm I think I'm gonna try setting up Coolify on a raspberry pi before the end of the year.

I want to self host stuff, but I am lazy and want a groovy dev experience. Feel like it should mix well.
