Micro Blog

When I shutdown my Facebook and Instagram accounts, years ago, I switched to more open source friendly social media service networks; Pleroma was my first stop in the Fediverse. Since then I’ve maintained several Fediverse accounts and now BlueSky and Nostr.

My Micro Blog project aggregates all these posts from various accounts backs them up and makes them all available here on my personal site.

Summery of accounts and features supported

“Swing swing” followed by gleeful laughter comes from the hammock. It stretches between two trees at the base of a quarry rock wall. My daughter and I play.

“On belay”, “belays on”, “climbing”, “climb on” a friend and I repeat the mantra as I head up the wall.

If I got time to play games over 45min this would be top of my wishlist.

My first attempt at this circuit, which when transferred to breadboard didn’t work. Hopefully the simulated one will fare better.

Here is a circuit I’ve been working on, my first with transistors. Red LED turns on when microcontroller, MC, is powered. Green LED turns on and red off when a signal is sent via GPIO from MC.

Green long sleeve escapes the wardrobe and returns to rotation.

Found a few minutes to replace some broken buttons.

It took some doing, but I finally got my BEM280 (temperature, pressure, humidity) sensor for my balcony weather station working in C. Crazy how much the Circuit Python library was doing: setting bunch of config values like mode and oversampling rates, enable/disable filter, reading compensation params, and parsing the read out values. Pretty cool to do it all yourself and understand the sensor on a deeper level.

I’m convinced by the Quinn’s Quest review. Slugblaster looks epic.

After years of owning an InstantPot I just now realized you can put the lid on the side. 🤦
