I run most of my homelab services as LXC containers on Proxmox, and lately I’ve been reaching for Alpine Linux because the base image is tiny.

I run a self-hosted Forgejo instance where I keep my repositories, including now some 3D printing projects I have started along with STL files (and SCAD files where applicable).

A short series—quick to read, very entertaining—and it keeps you wondering: “So… what happened after that?”

I bought an Anbernic device mainly to play PICO-8 games on it, but after playing two games the screen broke and I had to return it so I still have a nice backlog of PICO-8 games to go through when I sit down and set up my Retroid Pocket.

Half a King carries the checks of a classic adventure novel tracing the hero’s journey.

I’ve created yet another small pet project.

That was fast!

I’ve tried to read productivity books for a while, started with note-taking, time management, and goal-setting… but never managed to finish any of them.

I’ve decided to revive Butterrobot after a long hiatus.

The first time I played Storyteller two years ago I really liked it, I thought it was a very original game and the ability to create scenes beyond just solving puzzles was quite interesting.

Lately I brought back to life an old Android device of mine that I wanted to use to try out some unrelated stuff.

I’m publishing this in 2025 but the reality is that this has been my second playthrough as I already finished (almost completed) this game in my Nintendo Switch back in 2019!.

Small update!

Finishing this year with some changes from last year.

Yes, it finally happened.

There’s a moment to play, there’s a moment to read, to rest, to listen to music… we need to choose how, when and how much of our time we spend on each area we like.

Up until now I have been working locally (on my home network).

There a time to deploy new services to the cluster, and there is a time to backup the cluster.

I was in the process of migrating Shiori from my docker environment to the new k3s cluster I’m setting up.

We have been doing a sort of experiment lately.

I have my K3S cluster up and running, and I’m ready to deploy my first service.

I’ve finally started to play with K3S, a lightweight Kubernetes distribution.

Due to some recent traveling I have started to listen to audiobooks.

First weekend of February was, as usual, the FOSDEM conference in Belgium, and I could not miss it.

I’m too joining this trend, since it seems like a good idea to keep track of the tools I use, others may discover new ones as I have done in people lists, and it’s a good way to see how my preferences change over time.

My main computer is a MacBook Pro from 2017, but I have some servers laying around and one other laptop connected at home with ArchLinux installed that I use mainly for development.

This is the most accurate summary I can give of the last month.

I've started drawing a little on the tablet.

I'm pretty sure this is how everyone use their laptops at home.

We had amazing holidays this year.

This is a pretty good summary of the month.

Automations in Home Assistant are the best thing after the cocoa discovery, I use them a lot for many different things and I’m always wondering how to solve the first world problem of the day.

I was talking recently about how many Zigbee devices are too many and how the most troublesome thing you can have is batteries dieing on you at the same time.

A ninja picture of me taking a picture Books Ongoing with One Piece: Volume 67+ I’m completely on fire with this.

I’ve been adding some automations to my Home Assistant recently so it can inform us of takeaway menu changes for local restaurants.

I love having this at _somewhat_ walking distance.

Imagine waking up to this every day... sadly it only happens on vacation.

On the good days that actually seems like summer we get some beaufiful landscapes like this.

This was technically last month, but celebrated on June 1st.

The beauty of the north Projects games-screenshot-manager I’ve refactored the project a bit and I’m working towards concurrency, documentation and adding playstation 5 support thanks to a friend which provided me some sample files. switch-games-json Updat…

Things are changuing!

A month for changes!

Oh boy, here we go again.
