Last new years I decided against getting fireworks. It's just too harmful to the environment. Instead I build this "reusable" rocket out of a d1 mini microcontroller and a WS2812B LED-strip. It is "lit" by pushing a button.

The kids really like starting the rocket.

@freemo Qoto.org is getting a little long in the tooth being apparently based on a mastodon version released in Oct 2020 (3.2.1). Any plans to update to a more recent base version?

I'm now convinced that the root of the OpenAI fiasco is that they successfully invent Skynet in the future but failed to program it to love humanity.

So one of the board members is a time traveler sent back by the resistance to prevent the creation of Skynet. But since they're a pacifist instead of using guns, they're using boardroom shenanigans. 😆

I feel like every person born before 1980 has a baby photo of them being bathed in a kitchen sink and I have a theory that most of it stopped when people got dishwashers and realized it was a much more convenient way to clean their children.

Playing around with it's like a dream come true so far. I edit in , changes show up in the generated pdf very quickly with the command line tool in watch mode. No fussing around with ponderous toolchains. Next up converting a medium size doc with a lot of equations from .

I tried to sign up to #matrix today. The process is.. not fun. Maybe it is the web client, maybe it is the matrix, but it took multiple tries and VPN hopping due to some errors about too many requests. And when I get into it, it seems the client is not able to be opened in multiple tabs at the same time? Like, what the actual fuck. Is there some command line client that would fit both "lightweight" and "working" definitions?
