Over the past few days and weeks, I’ve decided to downsize my digital and tech collection. I own so many computers, laptops, smartphones, smartwatches, accessories, and so on—I can never really use it all. I bought a lot of it just to own the latest “hot stuff.”
That’s why I’ve gotten rid of most of it—either giving it away or selling it for very little. And I’ve kept only the bare essentials. Often not even the newest or best.
For example: I now only use my Peladn Mini-PC with …

#cryptocondom v0 running on the raspberry pi

Ansible playbook done "enough", everything is now matching. Evidently I did forget to transition one server over to Debian, but got that sorted and now everything is running pretty well.

This film has finally come out. I recommend you see it, not because I did some strange pop/noise music for it, but because it is one of the strangest films I've ever seen.

Changing NOTHING ELSE, here's what happens if I try to pad to:
- 10 mm
- 2.1 mm
- 2 mm
I must stress to you that the ONLY change I am making between these three outputs is to open the Pad editor and change the number of mm of extrusion. The solver is absolutely schizo.
Mind you that I already built a partner shape for this elsewhere in the model, which is dimensionally identical, and it went fine!

We've been playing around with stream settings for the past week. Here are the best settings we've tested for streaming #LOTRO and other games from #Linux. They should work well on Windows as well. Remember, if you're on Nvidia, replace the "VAAPI" with "HVENC".

Homelab migration done, all of the VMs are on Debian which makes things easier to manage. Currently deleting the old mirrors out of storage and running a few backups at the moment. I think it's time to maybe play some vidya games and just enjoy the rest of Sunday.

Sigh, the one model that has what I want and it isn't available. Another similar model from a different company, not available. Both are much more expensive compared to last year. I didn't buy then as we needed a new A/C, Furnace, hot water tank, washer, dryer and a fireplace removal. Now that I have the cash saved up... :(
Personal preference is a mini machine to replace my laptop. Hooked into a UPS so I have several hours of backup power. I can then do my final backup …

The madness continues. I'm working on getting Handbrake compiled with support for the SvtAv1 `psyex` fork, and after quite a few attempts and fixing a few patches I have it working. This will end up in the final `sisyphus-client:latest` container assuming the current tests pass. I have something similar I need to do with the `sisyphus-client:latest-essential` container with the `essential` SvtAv1 fork as well, but things are looking good.

"About 20 years ago, researchers discovered three ancient mummies in China. They had a strange white substance smeared around their necks, which turned out to be chunks of preserved cheese. Dating back around 3,600 years, it was the oldest cheese ever found."

A ceaseless urge beneath all appearance; an impulse not merely to persist but to intensify; life as duration, as movement, as an unbroken unfolding in time. As a technology of becoming. Life as sequence - procedural quests of forward momentum.
A language underwrites the motion; lines on lines inscribing themselves across a dark field. Pulses like pixels, moving in canon. Constructions that branch, loop, and repeat. Patterns generate patterns, as though the law of existence were simply…

career.

"This song is called tepsije and is sung by women as one of them spins a copper tray. The tray is spun on its edge on a tabletop. The women sing, taking their rhythm from the tapping of the ring on the spinners finger against the spinning tray.

The determined string left the bar and stopped a passer-by. "Excuse,

passer-by obliged, and the string re-entered the bar. "May I have a beer,
