Now the Atari 800XL project is almost finished, it is time for some documentation. In case someone is as crazy as me to attempt it, I have listed all the parts and how to acquire them. ezcontents.org/atari-800xl-b….

Hi! Testing my new thermal camera. Should work on electronics too… 😎🔥

Watched some old retro friends’ videos - pleasantly surprised how many are still active. Since Twitter went downhill, I lost track of most, so it’s good to see they haven’t vanished. Still alive, healthy, just not making videos or blog posts lately.

Zigbee mesh finally behaving. Seems that routers = everything.

Trying out some free local Claude code AI coding...

If you haven’t seen this movie, it’s a must-watch! It shows how the world will be impacted by AI in the future.

Thanks to the tips of @Amon_RA I have switched to MeshCore LoRa network as this is wider used than Meshtastic in the Netherlands. First device is up and running for some real field tests.

Got a small Meshtastic network working and sent a message over LoRa from one node to another. Pretty cool stuff. Looks like there aren't any other nodes around here though.

Still on my project todo list is to get this LoRa module up and running. Maybe with some other LoRa receivers that I have to build using ESP32 modules? Still not sure how to set it up.

Trying out Cardputer ADV projects on UIFlow2.0

Running Home Assistant in a KVM VM on Ubuntu. Gotta love a type 1 hypervisor.

Game on... Another step deeper into the smart home rabbit hole.

About my latest post: maybe this should have been the thumbnail instead. 😂

Mini laptop + weird Windows activation + Ubuntu dual boot plan = first make a full Clonezilla backup. I documented the whole step-by-step process here: ezcontents.org/backing-mini-… #Ubuntu #Clonezilla #DualBoot #Windows11

Feels like everything is AI now. Anyone doing something that’s not AI? Also yeah… I’m guilty too. Been busy with AI stuff and I barely post anymore.

Thanks to AI the world is moving forward and user manuals are getting smarter and smarter,
