W20/2025: Monday 12 May - Sunday 18 May 2025

Caption: Back to school

Cooking

  • Some good food these days, but nothing new. Split pea soup. Lovely breads from Nana Bakery. Pasta, tomato, and meat sauce. Hamburgers (pork) with baked potato wedges. Yoghurt with fruits and nuts. Fluffy scrambled eggs. Pancakes (on the weekend). Roast chicken. Steamed Veggies. Pizza from The Duke's.

Work

  • Outline the 3 technical books (to do).

Tech

  • Updated SyncThing Android client to the SyncThing-Fork. Had to muck about manually deleting files from Android, then sideload from Github, but all well in the end (besides setting up and syncing the 200+ gb of files).
  • Jailbroke my pw6 Kindle Paperwhite 12th gen. Went fairly well.
  • Installed and configured KOReader, a wonderful ebook reader (cross-platform, but mainly targeting Kindle and Kobo).
  • Was able to once again de-DRM over-the-wire KFX ebooks (thought this was not possible).
  • RLCD vs. E-Ink

Tech Tasks

  • Cloudflare -> Gcore
  • Linode -> Hetzner (cheaper, faster, better?) // Debian task list
  • Github -> Forgejo + Codeberg
  • Consider plans to deploy anti-AI bot stuff

Health

  • Everyone is mostly healthy (still waiting for the school flu to get to us).
  • I still have an unresolved issue with my sprained finger, which means I still cannot make a solid fist, and it is weak when trying to hold / carry a load. This is the left hand index finger, which was my strongest hand. It is very slowly improving.

Travel

  • Back to school, no travel, other than around town.

Reading

  • Min-Maxing my TRPG Build in another world

Music

Games

  • Mars:Mars is a favorite for Android TV these days. On handheld we are revisiting Tower Madness 2, and oldie but goodie.

Video

  • Lots of One Piece these days, we are well into Season 4 of the animated series.
  • Murderbot
  • Andor S02
