I’m very been trying to get into hardware more. This years project was a speaker which is nearly done (with a few weeks to spare).

Next years (and probably a couple years after) is an electro-mechanical smart watch. Sourced some Ronda GB22 gearbox motors and tritium tubes and planning on using a pcb for the face. What could go wrong.

An PWA primarily for my wife and my daughter. They can order their hot chocolate and their coffee as if they were going to grab something at a fancy café downtown, but instead it's at home and I'm the barista. It is quite nice to have for when my wife comes back from work and want something specific, or when we are waiting for the visit of a few friend, they can order exactly the available beverages and everything is ready when they're here.

It was also a good playground for me to implement Web Push notifications (to never miss new orders).

It's a basic Nuxt 3 app with Appwrite as the backend with rough edges, but much enough for our household use !

If you want to spam my phone with notifications, please visit my café : https://mytinycafe.com/alix

I love this concept and the execution.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a simple S3-wrapper to a standard dir? I've got a few apps/services that can send data to S3 (or S3 compatible services) that I want to point to a local server I have, but they don't support SFTP or any of the more "primitive" solutions. I did use a python local-s3 thing, but it was... not good.

ffmpeg is the only community where I've asked for help and been told "if you have to ask, you're too stupid to use this project". Needless to say, it was a welcoming community I continued engaging with.

I miss the days of eagerly picking up the latest PCFormat from the cornershop. The guides, the reviews, but mostly the CD running some old Macromedia Shockwave/HTML website with random apps and tools I could never download in the few minutes a day of dial-up time. Wish I’d kept some of my favourite issues.

If indoor is so inaccurate, how does Apple find AirTags then?

Apple use UWB[0] for nearby location sensing.

OP here. I posted this, this morning and then promptly forgot about it. How come the title has been changed from the blog posts own?
