My speedy route to getting a solid SDR++ server for RTL-SDR dongles running on a Raspberry Pi, with no compilation necessary.

Wander through my bargain-based computing history, in the hope the entry-level might finally bring all the computing power I crave. Spoiler, it doesn't. But not by much.

Things get a little meta as I explain how to continue to use a printer, purchased a mere six thousand and sixty-five days ago.

Managed to get devices on the Hubitat platform to speak MQTT by sending the POST output of the Maker API into Nginx. If at least one of those words makes sense, this may be for you!

They know where you live, but they’re deliberately obtuse about it.

Do you need virtual reality to work over fibre? No? You’re lucky.
