Today I ventured into streaming audio to my networked devices via linux.
Everything I found seemed overly complex or broken for my purposes and documented my setup in this blog post
With the endless ads on #youtube , I've been moving some of my videos from my channel over to my #peertube instance.
It's been a learning experience on how to make the best use of storage (it's expensive. Who knew), and had to conform all the uploads to 1080@25 instead of 1440@50.
Surprisingly, despite being high-motion, the videos don't loose too much after compression (undulations/holes/bumps get compressed-away) with #av1
Now I can watch my videos without ads.
Recently, i've been getting back into embedded programming after a v'long hiatus.
Rather than going back to what I knew (lpc2xxx , MSP430, attiny, Spartan II) I thought i'd take the easy route and try a Raspberry PICO 2.
It wasn't quite as easy as I thought and I doubt beginners will figure out how to fix things easily and didn't find any guides on RPI's website.
I've added a blog post on how to get going with a PICO 2 on Debian
Another great tool to send files between devices: #localsend #opensource
Works on all major platforms and is available on #fdroid

In case you somehow missed it, there's a new version of FreeBSD out 😎

X11Libre is a fork of X.org claiming to 'make X great again'.
According to the project, 'big tech' is destroying X.org and boycotting any new changes and enhancements.
I'm slowly continuing my de-googling quest. Next up is a doozy: leaving GMail. Like many people, I've used just one GMail account for almost everything for many years, and the idea of updating all my contacts and services and migrating all those messages is daunting.
Still, those messages paint a very complete picture of my personality, activities, shopping habits, life story, political views, and social network. I no longer trust Google to respect that data and keep it private. I also don't like having it all behind one account I could get locked out of.
Thankfully, some people have already written thoughtful guides about how to make this transition. It's a lot of work, but it helps tremendously to have someone walk me through the thought process and what steps to take. It reduces the cognitive burden, and makes the task accessible.
These guides look very good to me:
