Ratatui running on the T-Dongle ESP32-S3! 🐀

I'm planning to make a Ubikey-like hardware auth device.

A spaceship landed in the park. A door dilated. A strange-looking alien with artificial antennae made from tin foil emerged.

"Greetings, Earthlings!! We come in..." It consulted a device. "In trick or treat?"

First #Aws, now #Azure, #gcp take the hint. It's your turn. We want rhe best show ever!
I don't understand how having a few minutes of OK animation makes this better? It's absolutely clear that they borged this. You wouldn't like a raw spaghetti which has 2 ok meatballs a good spaghetti. You would return it, not eat it and think "they saved the budget for good meatballs" #onepunchman #OnePunchMan3 #oneframeman
I know there are lot's of AI sceptics (for llm), however they are not really considering many different cases they really shine on. Today I tried gemini 2.5 flash for transcribing a cursive letter which I could not read for my life. It finished in seconds. I am not sure any OCR could be half as good. And OCR software are developed particularly for this case for years and still lack.

Did you know I studied electrical engineering besides work? On Thursday, I finished my bachelor's thesis with the final presentation and it's time to finally present my project: ZEReader, a microcontroller-based E-Reader.
Inspired by the Open Book Project by Joey Castillo, I designed my own platform from scratch. My focus was on building a reader usable in everyday life that is capable of handling books in the EPUB format. The project is still in a very early phase, but it shows great potential, and I have lots of ideas for future revisions.

You can follow the project's journey and see its current state at https://marx.engineer/zereader/ and the linked GitHub repos!

And of course, a special thank you to @aislerhq for producing and sponsoring the PCBs!

Is there a #chef or #museologist among my followers? I use some #curry powder with almost all food I eat. I mentioned my parents that I plan to buy some, and they gave me a box. Made in #Czechoslovakia in 1986.
- is it still #edible?
- does it have a #historical value?

Just a simple #Fact for #Today and, in fact, any other day. 🤣

I just can't anymore.

(Yes, it's Homelab service update Friday, and yes, I'm yet again trying to figure out what changed in kube-prometheus-stack.)

If I did release management like this, our developers would have paraded my head on a pike through all 12 worldwide sites - as a warning to others. Also several national and international regulators would have me reanimated afterwards so they could question me.
