Half the trip home from #icfpsplash25 is now done: 9h from SIN, two hours left until touchdown at IST, then some waiting and 3.5h flight home to GOT.
Singapore was an intense experience, but I'm looking forward to a cooler outdoor, and warmer indoor, climate.
Sad to see Trump Tariffs kill off a US-based small business that offers a unique product that works perfectly but will no longer be available because it’s now too costly to produce: the Starling Home hub that magically made your Google Nest devices play friendly with Apple Home and HomeKit.

Immigrants with special deportation protections are facing detainment across the country,

At least 18 DACA recipients are detained, according to a Home is Here tracker.

> In a message on its website, Starling said it can no longer manufacture the hub due to “rapidly rising costs of doing business for small US-based product companies like us (most significantly, tariffs the US government charges us to obtain the components we need to build our product).”
Why don't they just move their manufacturing outside of the US?

Sheriffs with shields and batons.
You don't often see it expressed in a visible way like this, but such state violence ultimately backs up all property ownership. Homelessness only exists because if people entered and made a home in a vacant or underused property, the state would use essentially unlimited force to evict them.
I have a lot of devices (~15) on my home wifi network. Around me are also 10-15 neighboring wifi networks as well as nearly 30 bluetooth devices of various origins.
I find it incredibly funny that using wireless bluetooth headphones throws me back to the vinyl record days where you hear constant popping, cracking and skipping.
All this fancy technology just to come full circle. 😄
Luckily, my particular pair came with an optional wire. 🎧

After Amazon's services failed in he middle of the night, my electricity at home failed for over 2 hours this morning, came back for long enough for me to get into the shower and then failed again (in a no-windows bathroom).
Those outages had depleted my UPS's battery reserves, I think, so when the power did come back on for real, my ISP's (terrible) ONT/Modem/Hub thing wouldn't power back up. So I had to have them replace that (luckily they have retail stores).

Every Fall I shake my fist at the guy who, back in the ‘40s, planted ( or left in place?) the majestic soaring silver maples that ring my home.
They are named for the way they look at this time of year, when the leaves curl and show their grey undersides.
The name oversells the look.
Meanwhile, the rest of my block is doing the red/orange/yellow display of other sorts of less-indigenous maple (and other trees. )

🤯 How India's unplanned hydropower dams and tunnels are disrupting Himalayan landscapes
https://phys.org/news/2025-09-india-unplanned-hydropower-tunnels-disrupting.html
Cleaning out my garage after our move prompted this morning's post. I have a milk crate full of stones that, when assembled, creates a small Inukshuk. It was originally built by my teenage daughters, from rocks they collected, some 25 years ago and has now traveled to it's 3rd home. I think his name is Tomrak, but I'll have to confirm that. I apologized to the movers about having to haul the rocks on their truck, but they assured me they've moved much stranger stuff.
I think I have a new location for Tomrak out front, and I'll post an update when he's settled.
Edited - added photo.

Home goods company Kohler recently unveiled a new device called the Dekoda

The Dekoda analyzes these images in order to provide updates on your gut health and hydration,
and to potentially detect blood.
It also comes with a rechargeable battery, a USB connection, and a fingerprint sensor to identify who’s using the toilet.
