Wait, Netatmo refreshed their weather station but it still only does up to WiFi g and WPA2? 🤦‍♂️

And it still uses micro USB?

So they made a new version that uh... Probably uses a new SoC and has some new colors?

(also, it's actually probably like v8 and not gen 2, since there were a bunch of revisions over the years...)

I wonder if there'll be homebrew x86 "CPUs" once the commodity versions are abandoned by manufacturers because that x86 assembly program runs best on bare metal.

(I for one hope that by that point in time it is viable to skip ARM and go to RISC V or whatever comes next, but I won't cling to x86 either)

@Jay16K ah right, the scales are a replication of the legend at airindex.eea.europa.eu/AQI/ind up to poor (red) - and yeah, that's a 24 hour mean index scale, and I'm using it with "instant" data.

2025-06-10

@Jay16K I think the scales default to 0-100 (linear) unless there are higher values.

The actual values are 1 minute measurements, while I think the color bands were 24h average limits from the EU, but I'd have to double check and don't seem to have made notes on it.

Don't worry about air quality they said.

It's been at these levels for about 4 hours now.

A gauge for PM 10 reading 67.0 microg/m^3 (indicated as in the red warning area) and PM 2.5 gauge reading 40.3 microg/m^3, also in the red

@Venty ja versteh das auch gar nicht, warum man da noch vodka in die mate schütten muss. Aber dasselbe war ja vorher mit dem energy drink von daher ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@msebel du solltest machen dass z.B. erneuer.bar/lieferkonditionen/ bei enter kein form submit request sendet, da du das ja lokal berechnest... (auch auf der startseite natürlich)

Spannend wie ein Krimi.

Spoiler: Es lag nicht an schlechten Wagen oder mangelndem Unterhalt, wie die Besserwisser schon am Tag des Unfalls behauptet hatten.

I think getting my portable AC ready was just in time for it being needed. Hopefully I can go without a little longer, but nights are getting warmer on my balcony, which at this point I'm fairly aware of in relation to needing the cooling :( At least we made it to June without this year.

Oh neat, minio just dropped having an admin UI in the community edition. github.com/minio/minio/release

Die Situation in Blatten erinnert mich an den Bergsturz von Randa. Ein viel weniger grosses Ereignis. Als Kind war ich regelmässig in Randa und erlebte wie das betroffene Gebiet langsam wieder von Mensch und Natur übernommen wurde. So hoffe ich, dass auch im Lötschental die Fläche sich irgendwann wieder in die Umgebung einfügen kann.

Das Foto oben im Artikel hängt bei mir schon lange an der Wand (es ist von meinem Vater) als ständige Erinnerung an die Gewalt der Natur.

Finally got #RevengeOfTheSavagePlanet (GOG) working acceptably:
- All videos play
- Videos shown in-world are rendered without artifacts
- FPS is decent
- FPS hold and don't drop over time

Things that are still a bit jank:
- Gamescope complains about two vulkan layers on start
- Gamescope doesn't manage to capture my cursor (second monitor problems...)
- The game's menu is in a weird state for a bit when launching and then complains that it can't login to GOG.

PR reviews are now in the specification! I'm excited!!

PR creation, discussion and review are perhaps the core activities of code contribution. And now ForgeFed specifies how to federate them all.

forgefed.org/spec/#s2s-mr-revi

I'll do my best to support Forgejo in implementing this.

@killyourfm on the first read it sounds like Beau Miles to me. But then I know that you'll do very different things, just maybe in similar mediums.

I was today days old when we finally switched over to a flat eslint config at work.

@glow the goal was to make a form where you can report when the FIS (Fahrgastinformationssystem) is either not working or wrong to get an idea of how reliable it actually is.

Since then the state has launched some QA program of their own where real riders do qa assessments of the public transport in general so I've been less interested in the idea.

@glow (also making me want to continue github.com/freaktechnik/fis-fa even though I'd essentially want to start from scratch at this point)

@glow We all know ads use secret bandwidth and secret hardware so they always play flawlessly.
