Oh for fucks sake Donald… My trading portfolio was looking lovely this morning then one little ranting tweet about China from Trump and it has crashed hard through the afternoon.

After resisting using any of the public "free" ones for the last few years I have finally got around to setting up a local LLM instance in my homelab...
This might actually have some utility after all.

The Walt Disney Company don't appear to be having a very good month on the New York Stock Exchange... I can't imagine why.

That was unexpected... a flight of 9 small jets just overflew East London in a V formation.
No Idea what the occasion is. Red Arrows?

It must be that time of year again… The RAM modules in my NAS seems to fail every autumn so now I’m stuck slumming it with Netflix until some new DDR3 arrives.
Probably being overly cautious but I’m keeping the disks out until the chassis is happy again.

Oops… I was planning to wait until tomorrow to fix the #homelab and tidy it up but the *tism got me and I couldn’t help myself… much better now ;)

This weekend’s project… tidy up this abomination.
The #homelab rack has been a bit neglected lately and needs some TLC. I replaced some gear in a hurry and didn’t have time to finesse a couple of months ago.
I’m oddly looking forward to getting this rats nest fixed.

Ooof... The @greenparty.org.uk internal elections have opened. It took over an hour to review all the candidates statments and pledges but I got there in the end.
A giant thanks to @lgbtiqagreens.bsky.social for their candidate pledges. A massive help.
Good luck @zackpolanski.bsky.social !

I get the loveliest text messages :)
I never cease to be impressed with the sexual health services at Dean Street… The results texted right to me in less than 24 hours. A breath of fresh air compared to the last place I used to get my MOT done.

Thank goodness for portable air conditioners. The temperature in East London had already passed 30c at noon and tomorrow may be even hotter. I'll be hiding in my lounge in front of the AC.
Thankfully I'm offsetting some of the environmental impact with some decent solar power generation this year.

Well this is going to be a horrible evening… Nationalist populism is a cancer infecting the right the centre and the left in almost equal measure.
Let’s see just how many Brits are still trapped in the fascist disinformation maelstrom.

I dub myself the DiscoBike Doctor… made a house call today to fix one of the @ibikelondon.bsky.social sound systems.
Also very thankful that past me built the amps onto a removable panel for easy maintenance.
