Still from the opening of the live-action version of "Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru / My Dress-Up Darling", showing the character Kitagawa Marin (a blonde gyaru in school uniform) against a pink background, waving and smiling to the viewer from multiple angles. Her name is written in large white letters overlaid across the image, in both Kanji and Romanised text.

Holding out a few months on upgrading OpenWRT from v24 to v25 paid off. All issues with Pixels and some other phones seem to have been ironed out now. I just did the upgrade on both of my APs and everything went smoothly. [ happy nerd noises ]

Judging from the all the AS CrowdSec reports as the main hostile sources trying to attack my hosted services, I can only conclude that the biggest thread to the safety of the Internet as a whole is... Google.

I think I'm going to call the firmware on that battery monitor finished. I polished the process enough, tested all the edge cases I could think of, and even added a status LED. Now I need some sort of case for it, then install and forget.

Afraid I'll have my soldering loicense revoked after this one...
Three small electronic boards stacked and soldered together in close proximity. The top board is an ESP32-C6 Super Mini, the middle board is a voltage and current sensor, and the bottom board is a 3.3V buck converter. The wires connecting the boards are very short, and serve as supports to keep the boards apart. Two of these wires have even been threaded though the middle board, soldered, then re-insulated, connecting all three boards in one go.Same object from the first image, viewed from the side, where the wires are more prominent.Same object viewed from a different angle.

Also, it's easy to understand why power-limited projects usually go for NRF52 MCUs. According to my PSU, the NRF52840 pulls about 13mA at 3.3V, while the ESP32-C6 pulls close to 80mA, just to sit there twiddling its metaphorical thumbs.

TIL in #ESPHome, with boards that have IEEE 802.15.4 radios, you can join your #Thread mesh and enable the ESPHome API, meaning you get IPv6 communication with #HomeAssistant without having to bother with ZigBee, Wi-Fi or Matter at all! This suddenly makes these board so much more appealing to me!

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

"it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.

"it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. "you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster." there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn't mean it has no price

"for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."
