Hah.

I Taught an AI to Manage My Homelab (And Now We Argue About Inventory Groups) I type one sentence, and a fully configured VM appeared on my network — with DNS on two servers, a git commit in the inventory, and Docker, qemu-guest-agent installed, Timezone and SSH keys configured...

SURPRISE 2ND MARCH POST WOOOOO

Two plugins - one for a WMATA commute tracker "Is my metro commute screwed?" with 16 installs. Another is a flight tracker with 30 installs. Both plugins are marked as "published".

Over 15 installs for the WMATA commute tracker, and over 30 (+10 installs over the past week) for the flight tracker! Building for @trmnl.com has been an immense pleasure. Just excited and happy to see people using the service.

An upgrade to the subspace - Bambu Lab P2S Recently, I decided to just send it and upgrade from my Prusa MK3S+ to a Bambu Lab P2S. Yes, I'm aware of the cloud controversy and security implications and etc. (losing Octoprint support also sucked...

For 2026, trying to do one blog post per month. No matter how small the update would be! Here's the latest big update:

Hey, are you a DM??????? Need more control over your music and timing?

GAMMA V0.1.0 is out!

Features scenes, custom tracks you can upload, zoom/pan waveform, and, my favorite, DARK MODE!!! There's a demo scene people can use to test it out and give feedback. Enjoy!!!

Cooking up a DnD tool I've always wanted to have when it came to controlling and timing music!

Over time, I think that the body just becomes a kind of dusty, draughty old house that collects all of these hauntings. They don't know about one another. But you know about all of them. And sometimes you can feel the soft collision of them brushing past one another as they move in you. When I say I am missing everybody I've ever loved, I mean that today I can feel all of my precious hauntings at once.

2026 may be the year I swap my windows PC to bazzite full time. Or just fedora

Looks swanky! What'd you use for the fancy CLI menus? I'm just so used to plain ol' shell builtins

digging the idea of "atmospheric computing" over "cloud computing" - just sounds way more collaborative, and is the energy I want to take into 2026

The holidays yearn for TRMNL plugin development

"Is my metro commute fucked?" - Green line. Large text, "EH. MAYBE." Minor delays, 1 alert(s). WMATA. 1 incident(s).

I figured out OAuth integration with @usetrmnl.com and user settings, and I'm pretty excited for this plugin I'm cooking up:

(WIP of course)

I learned way more about OAuth against my will this weekend...
