About three years ago I was working on a TUI input deck using a Raspberry Pi 2 and the NoIR camera module and AR orientation markers on the surface for drawing the UI in my cybre helmet.
I should revisit that project this winter.
Unexpected side effect of switching from expensive laptop to medium desktop & cheap laptop

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Custom RS232 cables like snakes pouring from the SCSI adapter.
I watched termcap files glitter in the ir_black colorscheme in vim
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
:~$ lsof /dev/pts|grep -E 'runcbl.*deleted'|awk '{print $2}'|sort -u|xargs kill -9 2>> /home/$USER/cbl_log
Shamelessly stolen:
Yesterday
All those backups seemed a waste of pay.
Now my database has gone away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly,
There's not half the files there used to be,
And there's a milestone hanging over me
The system crashed so suddenly.
I pushed something wrong
What it was I could not say.
Now all my data's gone away
and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.
Yesterday,
The need for back-ups seemed so far away.
I knew my data was all here to stay,
Now I believe in yesterday.

Little known fact: You can pin hashtag streams on the #mastodon web interface
@thfr If one just clicks on #playonbsd in your toot (or this one), it open the column right away and you can just hit pin, skipping the search step!

anybody know of a working root exploit for 7th gen fire tablet running fireos 5.6.0? preferably one that doesn't require me to download and run r00t_your_phone_no_m4lware_I_promise.exe from totallylegitsoftware.ru? (ok running random blobs on the tablet since it will be wiped soon enough)
Finally added a profile pic...
@thinkMoult @kurtm Hah, funny you should ask; I am an OSM contributor; and have a full planet (albeit sans history), on my local server.. so.. yeah, my house routes 😀
@kurtm sounds like more Silicon Valley (yes i know Amazon is in Seattle) “we know better” hubris. Oh wait, these problems are actually hard?!?
@lattera curious. Have you checked other environments like openbsd and linux for comparison
