@tavisco i believe you but if money wasn't a factor i wouldn't have a gaming rig that has an older cpu than your server!
@tavisco no wonder lol your server has a better cpu than my gaming rig
@tavisco how's it performing for you? i enjoyed the feature set but on the hardware i had it on (a 4th gen i5 laptop turned homeserver) it was unbearably slow (circa 2017 i think, when it was still new) which made me migrate to seafile instead
@tavisco this microwave's interface inspires me so much. it's 2024 and i don't have anything that looks and functions this nice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UiS27feX8o0
@tavisco the dream goal is to make an embedded sidecar that taps into the dumb electrics and properly controls the heater to a specific temperature we can adjust, making a 44gbp machine behave like it's 500-600gbp. and if i can make a nice interface that looks like a really expensive, consumer-level kitchen appliance, i'll be really happy
@tavisco we got a fairly nice espresso machine for extremely cheap on ebay, it already pulls pretty nice shots with a replaced portafilter and basket provided the grounds are properly fine enough (the consumer-grade portafilter it originally comes with is artificially pressurized to compensate for standard-fare grounds), but we suspect it's still coming out quite bitter because the water is too hot (models any cheaper than ~500 pounds have no temperature control, simply a cutoff thermostat)
@tavisco custom controller for an espresso machine mod for temperature PID and timer functions - really overkill but something to do to get it just the way we want.
right now there's code in place for everything regarding the screen, rotary encoder and thermocoupler, what's left to do is mostly a lot of UI work - i want to fill this up with pretty menus and pixel art. one of a kind kinda stuff
@elithebearded So while film has traditionally been fed from reel to reel, each frame moving vertically between openings of a shutter, you propose that we think of modern video more as a long rectangular sausage that is pushed forth and extruded from a hole?
I *think* I'm in?
i feel embarrassed to say that the board and the boilerplate software that has all the hardware enumerated (but doesn't really do much yet) took me the entire day. i used to be able to focus more

@TonicBH we never got bill nye, beakman was the one localized and dubbed
scourge of the fediverse, retired computer fairies founder (2017-2021), drone #6502, official amiga mascot, begrudgingly making a return to the fediverse to upset those who told us to leave. i've been here longer than you.
