I spent too long, too much of my own time over more than a decade chasing a dream community project that is yet to deliver anything useful.

Maybe one day it will and I'll be very happy, and now also very surprised. The good thing is that after losing touch with software development prior, it brought me back to competency in an unrecognisable field (git, Rust, CI did not exist during my previous life)...

..and set me up to reconnect with the #JoyOfTech in the form of #HomeLab & #HomeAssistant

The Joy of Tech comic: The Internet of ransomware things!

Is my fridge on the fritz or is a hacker just happy to see me?

Appropriate for today's DC Calendar post, this "Joy of Tech" cartoon:

Superman's social media nightmare.

The Joy of Tech

Da ist was dran - die Plastikflaschen sind natürlich nicht daran Schuld, dass ihr Inhalt voller #Mikroplastik ist. Natürlich ist Wasser daran Schuld!!

Selbst in den USA haben das ein paar wenige bemerkt.

The Joy of Tech
Being a bash developer in the twenty-first century

Programming is a drug. A successful program run is not unlike getting a good careless drag of a menthol cigarette after sweaty workout session, still riding the crest of runners' high endorphin rush. And just like any drug, you build a tolerance to it and start chasing new highs.

Why are you still on Twitter?

The Joy of Tech

I keep starting my #introduction but it never seems to get posted for one reason or another. So I’m starting it up again.

Check out my bio for a quick rundown.

Here are some likes that are not in there:
#photography with a #nikon D5600
Chilling to music on #minidisc
#yardgames like #washers and #Kubb
I attend showings of #rhps (#rockyhorror picture show) whenever possible
I’m slowly converting my home’s landline over to #voip on a #freepbx
I like to go #stargazing to spot satellites and shooting stars.
I’ll drop what I’m doing (including sleep) to run outside to watch the #iss pass overhead
(Sometimes I try to talk to them with my #hamradio equipment)
I quote #thesimpsons at the drop of a hat.
I also enjoy watching #archer , #centralpark , #TheGreatNorth , #tedlasso , #themorningshow , #thewalkingdead (but I’m WAY behind #nospoilersplease )
Online I read #engadget , #macintouch , #sandraandwoo (did it end?!?) , #dilbert , #FoxTrot , #hubriscomics , #xkcd , #joyoftech
Podcasts: #savagelovecast , #escapepod

There! I did it. I think that’s all the hashtags I’m associated with.

Google's apology!

Somebody's got to take the fall.
