I’ve found a use for LLMs that I’m comfortable with. Several times I’ve found that I need to write a simple script to do something, but it’s always a grind to do. Why not get a computer to do the grind then? At home I have a NAS called luggage (named for the equivalent in Discworld, but so far the NAS has not sprouted feet) and I host git repositories there so I can easily swap between desktop and laptop without a 3rd party service.
I resurrected a game I half wrote for the Amiga 35 years ago, but I’m struggling with reading the joystick in fs-uae. If I tell fs-uae to emulate the joystick with the keyboard it works fine. If I play llamatron on the emulator, it works with my shiny new joystick If I try to use my joystick with my code that works in 1. it behaves as if it is not there.
Today at work in a Slack mental health channel someone posted this set of definitions to help discussions :- Neurodiversity The idea that people’s brains work in different ways, and that these differences are natural and normal. Neurotypical A term used to describe people whose brains function in the way that society expects. Neurodivergent A term used to describe people whose brains function differently from what is considered typical. Which is fine as far as it goes, but to me implies a linearity to ’neuro’.
I’m currently on holiday with this Debian laptop, a GL.iNet Puli XE300 and a villa full of random network SSIDs. The Puli establishes a WireGuard VPN connection back home using whatever network connection it can. This laptop also has a WireGuard config back home. What I didn’t want to happen was for the VPN to run on this laptop if I was connected to the Puli as I’d then be tunneling within a tunnel.
I have a Growatt SPH6000 hybrid inverter connected to 2 strings of solar panels and a Growatt GBLI6532 battery. Originally I used the supplied Growatt Shine-S stick (diverting via grott) to get the lovely data out of it, but I didn’t like having an external dependency, so I decided to try and replace it with an ESP32 running ESPHome. Here Be Dragons This is my setup that works for me. There is no guarantee that if you try this, it won’t burn your house down.
