These mushroom hat thingies are from a super cheap aliexpress bedroom light (80 cents), and I took those and put them on addressable leds.
Then I sawed off this log, and hollowed it out to fit the esp8266 and led protoboard.
Really love the result, it will be a gift for a friend :3

GUI pet peeves ("got it!") 

@devurandom@cybre.space @feonixrift @polychrome hmm, would "I understand" be better? Just "Ok"?

@feonixrift @polychrome could someone explain this to me? Im non-native but I don't find them too bad

Having pronouns in your bio is important to normalise the practise, not just gor trans people but everybody. If only trans people do it, then it becomes a marker of who is trans, if you all do it then it's just a standard thing. I know it can be annoying to be asked over and over yo do it, but it is important

doing row reduction n shit, I really do like the Matrix.org project more than this linear algebra garbage...

This is a formal request for pictures of birds. You do not need to have known or seen the bird yourself.

I have a friend who is sad, and she likes birds. She specifically likes birbs, borbs, kiss a bird gently, and rond fluff bois.

I would like to send her images of the above. thank u all 🖤

Help yourself.

Watch firefly.
This show is gud

@chuck It's a general purpose VPN, wireguard.com/quickstart/
which combines well with a cheap vps somewhere. After you set it up, you have your homeserver and vps in a private network, and you can just use nginx to proxy_pass to the internal ip.
This is how much of the heavier pixie.town services are run, like Mastodon and Matrix, tunneled through my beefier homeserver

@chuck I feel like just using Wireguard would be easier, and more stable. It's really an amazing piece of software
