if anyone would like to critique my very first PCB design:
silkscreen is a mess I'll fix later but all the components/copper should be done:

pixie.town got a donation for a new 500GB SSD :)
when it comes in terra hardware configuration will change from:
256GB ssd (rootfs)
2x 2TB hdd in RAID1 (postgres and media storage)
to
2x 256GB ssd RAID1 (rootfs, postgres)
media storage:
200GB ssd cache (remainder of the 500GB)
2TB hdd
this should definitely improve Matrix and Mastodon performance a lot
"So i just came out to my dad abt being #nb, and he said something really wise about names, i think.
He said “Gifts are not obligations. You give things to people, and you hope they like them. And your name was a gift from us to you. If it doesn’t work for you anymore, you’re not obligated to keep it.”
and i just thought maybe other people could use hearing something like that."

so the bicycle parking where my second bike is has a maximum stay of 2 weeks (which they actually enforce, I had to pay to get my bike back once already). I don't visit there too often anymore though, so today I took the train there, moved my bike to a different spot, and got the train back, with 3 minutes in between trains :D
and here's the schematic, the TP4056 is a great simple chip. I used 2.2K ohm for Rprog, but with 1.2K it will charge the fastest (1A)
so tonight I did my first real SMD soldering, on a pretty challenging chip :D
I desoldered the TP4056 ic from a dead SHA2017 badge, then made everything work on the smd-protoboard of the eth0 badge.
Great fun learning to do tiny soldering, and getting used to working under a microscope
It charges a single-cell lipo, and gives the charging status over a wire, something the prebuilt modules can't (they connect it to an onboard led instead).
Next up will be adding a voltage divider to get a battery voltage reading, and throwing this all into kicad (also a first for me)

@nimblejack @alexis @DissidentKitty have you ever read Édouard Siddon's classic argument in "Against America"? It really thoroughly debunks these myths you're spouting
new quadcopter video :D

Had some time to work on #Dynamo again, my static site generator.
JSX templates, different flavours of frontmatter and a basic sitewide config file
Definitely needs a bunch of refactoring now that I'm more clear on the project's heading, but features are working :D
this is incredible, such amazing filmmaking and fight choreography

it's a My Hero Academia spinoff, by a guy who worked on a ton of big movies
