Sounds like you need to take a quick break then, maybe play the new TV Quiz add-on for Ken's Pub Quiz. Available in most app stores now ;) To be fair the Blue Prince looks a lot better...

If you’ve not emptied your batteries already for the free energy session 12-3pm then you are too late! Pesky sunshine getting in the way of my export :) Tech prepping underway… @octopus.energy #FreeElectricity

I’ve just noticed that Reolink have updated their app and the way that their 180 degree cameras are displayed has changed. This is so much better, easier to see on a phone screen - pan around the wide view to see in a normal aspect ratio!

I can't be the only one hoping Apple abandons Liquid Glass next year? As a user it looks a mess in most apps, as a developer it works inconsistently switching between light and dark modes randomly. I can't even set the selected font colour in an iPad app on a UITabBar!

Today I am mostly plumbing. What could possibly go wrong? It’s not like I ever have bad luck with water and flooding or anything…

I love my heat pump because my home is consistently warm throughout and I can run it from my solar & batteries - can't do that with gas! #heatpumplove @octopus.energy join in sharing the love this week to win a year of free electricity!

The weather’s so rubbish that even my camera’s solar panel has given up hope

On a different note, finding and filling this massive hole in my bathroom wall that I discovered under my bath should help with the heating costs this winter.

Oh wow, it’s no secret that food packaging imagery is staged but using AI adds a whole new level of untrustworthiness to what might actually be inside!

For the sake of clarity NO my video is not sponsored. I always declare in my videos when they are sponsored or a product has been provided for free. The evidence is clearly that MG would be unlikely to ever sign off on me calling Lane Keeping Assistant "Murder Mode"... definitely unbiased!

This little guy woke me up last night trying to crawl into my ear. Now I’m trying to find a way to automate spider capture. USB for scale.

Bloody diesels. I can’t wait to replace this with an EV

Right then, my automations are all ready to go, are yours? @octopus.energy #FreeElectricity

Testing an idea out, can I use a solar powered Reolink camera to make a smart hedgehog house? So far it’s promising! @octopus.energy Constantine as the placeholder hedgehogtopus for the moment… (crate is not the planned house!)

Got a notification from my @birdfybynetvue.bsky.social Birdfy Nest that a Great Tit was checking out the nest box. Nope, it was just me emptying the lawnmower and the Birdfy AI taking the piss... I appreciate the humour, 1-nil guys, 1-nil... :)

It's terrible weather for solar generation so I thought I'd give the rain a helping hand to remove the green film that's built up on my panels over the last few weeks. #solarpv #solarpanels #greenenergy #solarpower #greentech #solarenergy
