Here’s something positive for you, yet absolutely scary to grasp and realize: my friend lives in Kharkiv, Ukraine, the city that gets mercilessly bombed by russian occupant forces HOURLY; despite all that shitshow my friend and his buddies still do TNR and vaccination of local stray cats. I keep sending money to my friend: whatever I manage to earn with my music and other creations goes there. It keeps me sane knowing that my own art could save some feline souls from roadkill or starvation.

Yep. Until you realize they’ll shred your face with their murder mittens. As far as I know, there’s no way to tame a pallas cat.

Apologies, that must have been a bad copy-pasta 🍝

Believe it or not, Muscat does tail sitting too!

It might seem so, but believe me, my fluffy bro slapped down a bat recently. The bat was released though.

Earl Grey is such a handsome booooy I already want a headbutt with him.

His name is Muscat 😊

My wife worked for some alcohol retail company when she adopted him.

Your guitar is out of tuna!

The USB hub is powered, and the Pi needed a driver swap for better stability. So far works great.

Here we gooooo, the king of all junk setups.

Yeah, I’ve collected some used disks over the years.

The housing has been drafted in FreeCAD and then sliced out of scrap plywood.

And yes, the temperature is okay.

What’s currently running on mine:

• 10 commodity SSDs through a powered USB hub forming a poor man’s NAS with snapraid + mergerfs
• Podsync for converting my favorite YouTube channels to podcast feeds
• Syncthing for generic file synchronization
• K3s for whatever projects coming to my mind
• Retroarch for occasional gaming needs
• MPD with a floppy disk interface as my music station
• CUPS for printserver

Not exactly a terminal bell, but in my own phone I have replaced all system sounds with those coming from Doom 3 and Quake 2. Best UI sounds ever.

Plasma rifle cocking for display unlock is music to my ears.

The only brand new one is the Motorola ROKR E2 in the middle.

It’s not quite often to see damaged units on sale, as most of them are headed to a dumpster/recycle shop.

Just today I salvaged a portable cassette player in a decent cosmetic condition, I’ve yet to check the inner mechanics, but I’m pretty sure I’ll bring it to life one day.

Ooooh that roomba brush is Muscat’s favourite toy! He’d play the damn out of it.

Bring Your Own Box

Homebox supports the https://<hostname>/a/<inventory_id> shorthand and does a 302 jump for you. Otherwise yes, I would have implemented the API search in a microservice.

Muscat is a totally different beast. Before any treats he would effin’ murder for pets.

It’s Nelko P21, around $20.

You’re absolutely right here, this is my personal bias as I come from that part of the world (ex-USSR), where Palm’s market share was almost negligible. I’ll make sure to actually fix this in my presentation.

For now I use the vendor provided app, given it supports a share intent, so I can simply toss a PNG from Vivaldi at it and make it print the label. It does the job, and more importantly, it bypasses all possible obnoxious advertisement.
