@shriramk after the peacock, we now also have the flamingo (disrupted by a strong storm) that are wondering in our seaside towns. 😁

My new "agentic keyboard" setup is complete. 🤪

Picture of a tiny 2-keys keyboard besides a regular keyboard.
One of the key has a green glow below it, the other one glows red.

@shriramk I thought you may appreciate the coziness of watching bike racers from the table of a coffee bar. 😅

@shriramk I just discovered that Italy has a cricket team, and it's also attending the T20 World Cup 2026.

My physical bookshelf space is very limited (unlike the eBook one), so I need to keep my book selection very tight. This is the current content of the "computers" slots.

Some books of the "computer" selection in my bookshelf.

World Usability Day / Bolzen has some nifty treats in the welcome kit. 🥰

Bikes do not need highways; long distance routes are better served by trains. Bike use flourish when a tightly interconnected secure paths are available. Unfortunately, we still plan and build unusable bike paths like the one pictured below […] [Original post on mastodon.clipperz.is]

Nicely paved bike lane mostly unusable due to a lot of barriers placed to slow down bicycles every few meters when crossing a road or simply an house gate for cars.

@lrosa ouch! Nel mio microscopico mondo non ha avuto alcun effetto tangibile. Interessante però vedere che il traffico IPv6 è un decimo del traffico IPv4.

It needs to get messy in order to become beautiful, eventually. I hand crafted this mini phone booth with spare wood 30+ years ago; originally it had a wired phone inside, and its lights would turn on when receiving a call. Then the phone was removed […] [Original post on mastodon.clipperz.is]

Inside view of a mini phone booth with wires running all over for testing the light system.
The arrangement of the led pointing downwards will have to be modified to avoid the individual spots to be visible.

Photo of the mini phone booth with its lights in, in a dark room; there is still a lot to do, but the final effect looks promising.

Inside view of the top dome, with all the wiring and LED strips visible. This detailed view was used to plan an improved revision of the frame that will be 3d printed soon (it will be the fourth iteration).

Detailed view of the top of the dome, with all the lines of the 3d printing still visible.
Some priming and painting will happen soon; as soon as I have learned how to properly use spray cans on the spare parts, as the first test was a complete mess.
