@hi radon is something that just comes from the ground, not related to the type of the car, and it needs to be evacuated through the regular ventilation. I've learned (not too late thankfully) that builders even in EU countries have less strict requirements for garages, so for the last 10 years every time I need to deal with garages or any other ground level places long term - I bring a radon/voc sensor with me.
...
cons
- the window is a bit farther away
- a little more noise from the inverters
- more space
- all my tools are here
- this is where i spend most of my day anyway
- the old office is now a guest room :)
...
having all my tools within arm's reach has been an amazing boost to my productivity. more importantly, it brings me peace of mind because i actually know where my things are now... ❤️
i think i own too many things, but i guess that's the price you pay for living in the middle of nowhere
i'm finally getting all my boxes sorted and everything organized for the first time since i moved in last year

Five years ago(as of June 8th), I decided to give up on Acme and make my own text-editor. The plan was to make something I'd use for the rest of my life, improve it as I went along. It was to be written in this new language, and my list of ideas for it included a ton of extremely bizarre UX choices I hadn't really tested for my own. But if we ignore the more quirky esoteric things about it, there was two pretty simple choices made for it:
Undo depth: zero.
Largest file: 64kb minus the editor's own size.
Undo is probably the easiest one to understand. As you'd expect, some other mechanism emerged to take its place, I wouldn't just let it eat up my work each time I made a mistake. What ended up replacing it was being able to append and cut off chunks of snarf buffers, when I have something I might want to keep, I push it the top of the snarf file. When I'm satisfied with the change, I pop it off, or add something else on top. This has served me well enough, I figured that if I ever needed undo I might add it, but the occasion never came!
As of today, Left sits at 17677 bytes, which means I can edit a file, at most, a 45kb long file. This turned out to be less of an issue than I expected, mostly it made it so I split projects into chunks, but more importantly, it means that every single byte of the editor has to be accounted for. If I add something, I know its cost and the cost is directly making for a worse editor. This has been a constant force of optimization and code hygiene over the years.

A new MNT Pocket Reform mini laptop variant with Quasar 6490 (Qualcomm QCS6490) processor module (8GB RAM / 128GB UFS) preinstalled is now available in our shop: https://shop.mntre.com/products/mnt-pocket-reform
Enjoy!

just took some pictures of the new MNT Pocket Keyboard (small standalone USB-C keyboard with integrated optical trackball and RGB backlight) that's coming to our shop at some point next week. the case is a mix of aluminum (top plate) and Multi Jet Fusion printed Nylon (HP PA 12 S). in my opinion it feels really nice in the hands. open source hardware, of course.

@hi what is WAF for this mouse/keyboard multimedia installation? In the times I did this (~2003~2006), that implied only me launched the multimedia sessions :-/

that helps my 4 year old child learn how to run simple commands:
find grep ffplay
keeping filenames short so she can read it

@hi you weirdo prepare them for the Walking Dead world! 🙃

@hi true! So sad society doesn’t make use of this talent for a sane future :-/

but sadly, that's not really possible. we depend too much on the outside world for things like education, jobs, social life, groceries, and so on

need to find something or write a little wrapper for ffplay

@hi for OpenBSD on protectli you should be fine with a connection to the serial port. If you want a simple to use KVM-over-IP solution, I would highly recommend PiKVM. You might even be able to attach an USB-2-serial adapter to your PiKVM system.

@hi I used to use this https://www.tumfatig.net/2022/pikvm-using-a-raspberry-pi-zero-2w/
It was quite nice. I also used it to record the "OpenBSD workstation" :)

current setup:

openbsd -- hdmi tv
Alt...
dac box s2+
...
then i discovered that openbsd doesn't support audio over hdmi and my openbsd server doesn't have analog audio output, obviously.
my tv had been connected to a stereo amplifier anyway, so my setup is actually even better now: a dedicated usb dac connected directly to the amplifier.
...
also, lots of cables :)
at least the dac box can draw power from my server over the same usb cable.
very excited to switch to fully local streaming ❤️

@hi My daily driver is similarly comfortable to me, but pretty unusable by others…lots of keyboard shortcuts, superfluous window-chrome hidden, lots of dark-mode comfort for my eyes, lots of CLI/terminal interactions 😆

We really appreciate the work done on the TLS settings in relayd(8) and httpd(8).
It makes it even easier to get a tried and tested secure connection to your favorite OS and service!
"Both relayd(8) and httpd(8) now have the "secure" list of allowed crypto methods for HTTPS, which include TLSv1.3 and the TLSv1.2 AEAD cipher suites.
The previous list was "HIGH:!aNULL" which contain non-perfect-forward-security methods and this change may cause old clients to not be able to connect."

Meme of "The Most Interesting Man in the World" is an advertising campaign for Dos Equis beer featuring actor Jonathan Goldsmith as a bearded, debonair older gentleman with voiceovers that were both humorous and outrageous.
It has the text: I don't always tip, but when I do, it's my hat.

it's easy to script everything. wrote a script to download the latest version of routeros and upgrade all my mikrotik devices: routers, modems, access points (via capsman)
and when you need gui then winbox is amazing too. nice solid ui and it's only getting better over time
kia looks nice

@hi I'm sure the new bZ is nice, but not so much nicer that I'd consider upgrading (esp. that we got ours, an AWD with a heavy discount when the dealerships were getting rid of their old test-drive cars when the new model was coming in, essentially we got it 40% cheaper...)
now considering good old woodworking instead...
any good cnc machines that can produce small parts?

any similar machines? (also made in eu)
pretty much all other code i ever wrote is long gone

Paypal receipt for €890
it detects the intel hd audio and attaches azalia(4), but only the internal realtek alc257 codec is found.
there is no hdmi audio codec, no audio1, and mixerctl -a only shows the internal speaker/headphone outputs. the external display works over hdmi, but there is no way to select hdmi audio because no hdmi audio device is detected.
is hdmi audio expected to work with openbsd 7.9? if it should work, are there any additional diagnostics steps i should try?
...
...
@hi when I looked at it, if I remember and understood well, some docs said that this implies some defaults modification that impacts too many people, so it was never intergrated in the source.
But I think there was a patch somewhere in the wild. But not sure it still would work these days.

support hdmi audio, but I don't know that for sure.

At the botton us says hdmi codecs are not supported, but i don't
know what that means.
I use a small usb sound device on my system connected to a TV
using hdmi.
(I think that's how I came to know that hdmi doesn't work.)

@hi I'm *particularly* annoyed at how bad HA is at integrating weather (forecasting etc.) and other metadata. It feels like you could get a lot more out of your systems/batteries if you had better foresight into weather patterns.
Until I connected my car charger I didn't have any sufficient loads to keep my batteries from sitting at 100% at 8AM, but now that I do, intelligently dumping solar into the car's battery but making sure there is enough left in case of bad weather looming around the corner would be awesome.
And I will probably have to handroll it all
