I am going to sell my Mini-ITX motherboard and Jonsbo N3, and swap them both for an ATX and tower for my homelab. The size constraint was simply too much, and I think I just need to accept that to do what I wanna do I need the space! 🤣

I know I have work tomorrow but my brain is already thinking my Christmas break has started. 😭 At least it makes me feel relaxed.

What is this bs? Why mass surveillance always under the guise of "protect the kids"? All this warrants is putting a special chip in all of our devices to scan everything we do. Source: bills.parliament.uk/publications... (page 20)

It's a lot different now. But I have published it to npm! Created a new monorepo to hold all of my utility things I have done in the past on GitHub. It's still early days and I still need to refine it more. Going to probably publish more things to npm in the future as well!

This is why I still watch YouTube

When I see someone unbox a new gadget, and they pull the coiled cable straight without unwinding it. Me: 😱

Why FIleFlows is epic:

11 days off coming soon... I have, right now, a wave of motivation so much time for so many projects and stuff around family gatherings! But I know those 11 days will go so fast and I will feel like I wasted the time I had. 😭

I tried compiling libvmaf cuda from source and after hours of working out how to do it it doesn't work seamlessly with FileFlows. Ehhh worth a shot! Would have been cool if it did.

If AI takes everyone's jobs, and people have less money to spend because said jobs are taken, then what does that mean for an economy?

Just did a test encode with the NETINT Quadra T1U, I didn't have much time to do anything extensive tonight but it seemed like a good performer. Here's the vibes I got: It looked like it could do CPU-like quality at maybe GPU speeds. For one encode it did in 150fps what Nvidia does in 300 BUT...

I love products like this ❤️

Anyone used a NETINT VPU before? I'm really curious about them. Tempted to try and rent a Linode for an evening, as they have VPU accelerated servers available. Might do some tests on their T1U instance.

Oh, great

The Christmas break cannot come any quicker 😭

This looks insane!

If water isn't wet, is the inner core of a water droplet wet?

I have to give Disqus credit. They cleanly state they track the living hell out of their users up front. Which is better than most!

Anyone ever seen an Android TV so clean and empty and not full of (Google) bloat and ads? Gonna drive this for a while on my Pi 4GB, but I promised a friend they can have my Pi 4 a while back when they return so I have a Pi 5 on order (hence my last post).

Helllp, I keep buying Raspberry Pi's

It's actually kinda a niche utility, but no matter how niche it is, I thought it was kinda cool! It made me happy and that's all that matters. 🤣 - Fully type safe - AST print - Composable Idk if it's worth putting on npm

I am not really a fan of camel case. Snake case makes so much more sense to me. Buuut I live with it because it is convention in TS land.

⚡️ The first Vite 8.0 beta is here! - Powered by Rolldown, bringing significantly faster production builds and more consistency - New features such as tsconfig paths or emitDecoratorMetadata support - Bumping browser targets aligned with Baseline Widely Available Read more in our announcement post!

Oooo!

Finished it! And yeah bring on season 2!

I love it when I misconfigure a TS project and it emits a load of JS files next to all my source code.

Did something I am kinda happy with. I was so inspired by Drizzle's composable SQL API I decided to try and mimic it at a very basic level in my UI for conditionally displaying elements based on access levels. Here's an example of the API for handling UI elements combining feature flags/perms:

Now it's December I am getting in the Christmas mood! I am a transformed man now. All it took was the clock striketh 12 on the 1st.

I've never really been a big anime watcher, and for the past year I've watched Naruto, Bleach, AoT and starting today, Frieren — so I'm pretty deep into it now. 🤣 I gotta say Frieren has gripped me the most out of them all. I'm a few episodes in and I think it might be my favourite anime so far!

I find RCS kinda crap, I always get "waiting to connect" and then I have to switch back to MMS. I guess that's what happens when I refuse to use WhatsApp. Also my network config isn't normal so that might also be why.

🆕 Knip for Editors Trust me, I've poured in A Ton of Love ✂️ This isn't just a plugin to show unused exports. It offers a unique way to view & navigate your code and connect the dots. Feels like there's so much potential here. Excited for you to try out the preview! 🙏 → github.com/webpro-nl/kn...

Ok this is flippin EPIC!

It's not working well at all actually. 😬 There is something I think that is preventing me from being able to use my GPU with TrueNAS apps. Man I am really frustrated.

👀👀 It's all set up! It's working well so far. Just gotta get Fileflows to work.

Getting a label printer is already paying off for the satisfaction of knowing what all the little bags that come with my gadgets are for.

Has there ever been a chef on TV who tried their food they just cooked and went "Hmmm not the best job I did there"?

That time of year. 😊

Glad I bought my homelab parts when I did. RAM prices are insane right now. I got 128GB, and with current pricing the money I spent on 128GB will only get me 64GB.

Bluesky stop signing me outttttt plsssss!

If my little venture with my friend makes it anywhere I've been really inspired by Valve: their lack of hierarchy, providing a genuinely good service and NOT being public. I'd like to try their way of working.

More bus and USB keyboard adventures, this time with the W, A, S and D keys. Oh, and please don't chuck keyboards out of bus windows

Stop the slop.

Underrated VSCode extension. I use this quite often and it gives me insight into heap usage with Node. Idk if it works with Bun or Deno, but it should I hope! And it's made by Microsoft.

Had yesterday off work, just annual leave. It's kinda nice having a random Wednesday off. Breaks up the week nicely; makes it feel more balanced.

I gave this a trial run and VMAF runs on the CPU and makes my laptop really warm. And loud. And downloading the video file over the network adds significant overhead to processing times. There's still hope though to use an egpu with my homelab!

I had the pleasure of trying to install Nvidia drivers on Ubuntu yesterday. Attempt 1: Install through local repo .deb with secure boot Attempt 2: Install through Ubuntu packages without secure boot Attempt 3: Install through Nvidia .run executable without secure boot (worked)

Sooooo turns out that PCI-E tunnelling isn't supported on a top of the range USB-4 motherboard. 😐 It's the Gigabyte x870I PRO ICE. Avoid it if you want USB PCI-E tunnelling.

Microsoft shoehorning a Teams link into pretty much every event annoyingly works too well. No one turns off the link so everyone gets confused and then goes to Teams.

Turned out perfect! 😁

Building my new standing desk today. Very hyped! I'll share setup pics when I'm done.
