My 3d printer continued to print after the model fell over; wasting a lot of filament. I thought it was supposed to automatically detect this but apparently not.

I've hooked up the camera to OpenAI to check if it's failing every 10 mins, pause the print, and send a notification with some options.

We all thoughts Elon Musk was a real-life Tony Stark. He's actually just Justin Hammer. Though even Justin Hammer had more charisma than Musk.

Actually, a better analogy is Peter Isherwell from Don't Look Up.

A nice little touch in Figma. When I name a page "Ready for engineering" I get a popover which signposts the use of Dev Mode. #ux #productdesign

Gridfinity is taking over.

How do you spend your evenings?

I'm modelling custom Gridfinity bins to store all my Shelly relay spares before I fit them during the house renovation.

I'm watching Silo season 2 and my TV might as well be off it's so dark.

I need help identifying a house track! In April 2014 at Whistler’s WSSF, I heard a female vocalist perform this song live (photo below).

Lyrics I recall: ”Friends. Why can’t we be friends”.

Any idea what it could be? 🎶 #MusicHelp #HouseMusic

I just sold my cinema speaker system. Massive towers. Giant sub. It just doesn’t fit our space anymore.

It was a strangely pivotal moment because we’re ”downgrading” the audio and it feels like giving up a part of myself (wire spool video anyone?).

And yet the result is a much nicer space.

Here’s to a 2025 where I actually finish some renovation projects.

I’d love Graham Norton to commentate PMQs in the same way he does Eurovision

I think that AI agents have a perfect analogy in the Meeseeks from Rick and Morty.

- They are brought into existence to complete a task
- They can summon more agents to help complete the task
- They can’t rest until that task is completed

It’s all very well to tax the farmers. But have you seen how much money the church makes?

Just an idea.

Anyone else think the new Jaguar logo looks like the Dyson logo?

During the pandemic in the UK, I was asked to go down to a 4 day (remote) work week.

I used this time to convert my garage into a workshop. What started a hobby has given me skills to renovate my new home, in Sweden.

I’m now building a new workshop 4 years later. If it ain’t broke…

Bluesky really does feel like the Twitter of old; before it became super popular (and infested with hate).

I’ve finally got my archive from Twitter and have deleted it. Now, what to do with those Tweets?

I think I want to cross-post from somewhere I own to these platforms.

Are we supposed to hashtag on BlueSky?
