Realised this morning that I had enough bits lying around to build another keyboard, so will build a Pi Pico based Alice. Turns out the Picos on my desk are actually Pico W. Gonna build a keyboard with a Prometheus endpoint to measure exactly how badly I type.

Original Red Hat for me, preferably installed in "Hick" language to demonstrate multi-language capabilities.

Corel was good too, especially as it came with WordPerfect

Right now I am filling a Miro board the corporate friendly bollocks that means nothing. How is this supposed to help anyone?

Decided to vibe code a #homeassistant control panel using #esphome and lgvl. After several evenings of work it turns out reading the documentation is easier.

Well I am English, short, kind of chunky build and I love eating. Maybe I am actually a hobbit?

His LinkedIn in seems to have a small amount of life on it. He's given out a few recommendations, but it seems life at Snyk is keeping him too busy. Their gain is the DevOps community's loss

I hated glue sticks for many years (I call them the black years), then I discovered 3d printing.

Turns out glue sticks have always been a solution waiting for a problem. That problem finally arrived with the arrival of consumer 3d printers ๐Ÿ˜•

As much as I love a Hovis sliced loaf, now I live in France you cannot beat a good baguette tradition.

It happens

I've made suggestions to troll the security team then gone on holiday. Got back to find out it had been okayed and I had to implement it. It was a terrible idea, but I was past the point of no return.

Writing a series of devotional and decided to use LLMs as my assistants to search for bible references.

They ALL need a lot of work. Even GPT-5 is very insistent that various fictional chapters are good sources (Galatians 16 for example).

I think I am gaining time, but we shall see.

I could really use your help looking for Senior++ Technical Writer roles or intermediate++ Developer Relations roles. I'm looking to stay in Germany.

I'm also considering building up a freelance pipeline but realistically full time work makes my visa situation way easier.

Please RT for reach ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™€๏ธ

I know, but it is still interesting.

I have an 8GB Radeon and a CPU/motherboard sat on my desk. Just need. Just need some RAM and I'll have PC just for LLMs ๐Ÿ˜‰

Note to self: Playing around with @dagger.io on a local LLM running on a 5 year old CPU is not optimal

Is it supported in RHEL? IF it isn't, why would it be support in Rocky?

"I'm looking for the Spirit wherever it happens" - Bono, in conversation with Joe Rogan.

Something to remember as we arrive at Pentecost.
