“If you want to homebrew a joint fabric, you can do that today with a Raspberry Pi and a couple of beers.”

~Nilay Patel, The Vergecast, June 18, 2026 while discussing Matter in the context of Homeassistant users.

I agree, Nilay, though usually a few more beers than I originally thought necessary.

Cool looking book and the content looks very promising.

This nightmare for every book author.

Agency stole bestselling author's book, used AI to relaunch as their own https://waxy.org/2026/06/the-wholesale-plagiarism-of-obscure-sorrows/

The Wholesale Plagiarism of Obscure Sorrows - Waxy.org

Without permission, a marketing agency republished the entirety of John Koenig's Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows book, replacing its art with AI slop and adding new AI words. Their unauthorized site now ranks higher than the real one everywhere.

The latest quality of life tool I acquired for use with the 3D printer is a fluid dispenser for IPA.

No more pouring out a bottle onto a paper towel to wipe off the print bed.

I forgot about folding at home for a minute.

Just deployed a docker container for it on my Rack PC to suck up spare CPU cycles. I have an NVIDIA Quadro GPU laying around I need to install on the machine to give FAH access to as well. I won't need the GPU for graphics since I run the machine headless.

My instance is running mastodon 4.6 under docker, everything tied in a docker compose file. It was easy, but involved a few manual steps. I’m thinking about writing a blog post about it.

“Look”, said Arthur, “would it save you a lot of time if I just gave up and went mad now?”

I can totally relate to this sentiment.

I have very conflicting feelings about this :D

The first one failed about three hours in. I am reprinting with the 15mm brim I should have always printed it with.

It’s a fidget toy shaped like the FIFA World Cup.
