It's no secret that I've been struggling, and my therapist said I need to find things to keep me busy, so I created the @cdnspace Artemis II dashboard.

I reverse-engineered the Unity Engine powering the NASA AROW visualization and found an absolute treasure trove of data to display.

Little did I expect that it's now being seen by anywhere from 200 to 600 people at any given time with 130,000 people having looked at it in the last 24 hours. People are even building projects around my API.

Yesterday, I received a message on LinkedIn from someone working in Mission Control in Houston... and they're using my dashboard! He even sent me a photo, but I can't share it until after the crew has splashed down.

Mind blown, and an absolute pick-me-up. The best part? It's being served from my basement.

Inspired by Germany's #DiDay ("digital independence day") and the Danish #DanmarkSkifter, the Netherlands now has #DoeiDag ("bye day"), every first Sunday of the month. 🔥🇳🇱

DoeiDag is a montly day to say goodbye to big tech and to try open alternatives. It's organized by the good folks of @doeidag

@themaritimegirl If you're close to an electronics store that sells 3d printers, they should have a good selection of belts. I was surprised at the variety of belts last time I went to Microcenter.
@G33KatWork I've noticed a bit of spunk in my responses lately, too.

"How many products does Microsoft have named 'Copilot'? I mapped every one."

"A few weeks ago, I tried to explain to someone what Microsoft Copilot is. I couldn’t… because the name ‘Copilot’ now refers to at least 75 different things."

@socketwench that's hilarious. Great story!

@solomonneas I didn't even know that other agent's could use the subscription bucket. I always thought you had to use the API payment bucket on those other tools. That's why I never even tried. Oh well...
“There may be new information” they’re gonna send a patch update to this piece of paper?
