I released a 1.0 of semaphore-mcp! With this release, I’m publishing a podman/docker container that makes it easy to stand up semaphore-mcp beside your semaphore instance. This is great for the #ansible, #homelab and #selfhost crew. If you use it, I hope you enjoy it! github.com/cloin/semaph...

I put together an #MCP server for semaphore a couple months ago that allows you to interact with your #Ansible automation from clients like #Claude desktop! Great for #selfhosting! Have a look github.com/cloin/semaph...

I took a stab at creating an MCP server for #Semaphore #Ansible and ran a couple basic tests with Claude. Fun little side project! So many MCPs popping up.

I may have spent an unreasonable amount of time creating a workflow to evaluate my child's youtube videos before they're made public with #n8n 🤷‍♂️ #homelab #selfhost

If you use AI at all, are curious to understand what makes Deepseek cool, love excallidraw or just have 3 hours to kill, you seriously need to watch this. m.youtube.com/watch?v=7xTG...

A-shell, an iOS/ipados app, allows you to run shell commands using #shortcuts! I’ve scheduled a command to download NYT web edition as an epub to my iPad every morning before I wake up. Quite nice!

I recently read that #Calibre has recipes to automatically download articles from popular news sites and create ebooks from this content. I wrapped the #NYT recipe in a github actions workflow to grab NYT web edition each morning.

Nothing really “new” here but I like it, use it, maybe you will too

Petition to rename tush push: butt shuffle, glute scoot. Just something cuter to make it more embarrassing to attempt

It hit me just now, #GitHub gives away a lot for free and it’s refreshing.

Trying my hardest to dream of Jameis Winston in the snow tonight.

That was by far the least interested I’ve ever been in watching a Browns game. Good riddance, 2024.

If you start watching HEAT at exactly 9:47:45 pm tonight, you'll still be watching it at midnight. It's a long movie. Good movie, but long.

I’m surprised Google keeps releasing new Nest thermostats. I don’t touch or even look at the 2 I have. I just want them to disappear into my wall. They could get rid of the display and just sink into the drywall. Shoot, I’d probably pay more for a Nest I never see.

That time of year where we say what we're thankful for. I'm STILL thankful for the most useful #javascript #code I've ever written which archives/deletes #gmail threads based on searches. It runs every night and evaluates whether or not to delete/archive based on age of thread. 🤗

#Lions propensity to play on 4th down has done way more for the game than the #nfl dynamic kickoff.

I don’t know how lame it is to read a bunch of books by the same author, but I started #Murakami with Hardboiled and I’m super excited to open up Uncertain Walls

I built a streamlined workflow for #ServiceNow catalog order fulfillment with Red Hat #Ansible #Automation Platform—no spokes, no business rules, no javascript, just pure #eventdriven automation in action.
