dat feel when your boss hits you up at 4:56 on a friday asking for an update on an issue he has literally been emailed every goddamn step of.
My response was to just forward the last one back to him with reconvene next week bolded. To which of course he wants to know why. I point out the clients are saying that. “but why?” I do not know. fukken ask them. I charge overtime in minimum one hour blocks btw.

Basement: tiled, loose dirt bondcrete sprayed, organised. Brewery: de-lead painted, cleaned, new vwnts ordered and hopefully arriving today so we can fit before painting. Need to organise sparky to replace a socket with a four gang and a plumber to disconnect old brewery plumbbng and separate from kitchen.
What i plan to do this weekend will be both fuck and all.

oh lord this home automation thing is a slippery slippery slope
But for those interested:
1- use home assistant. None of this cloud bullshit. 2 - Ikea stuff is Zigbee and you can seamlessly marry it with the above without even looking at their app. Also it is cheaper than any other zigbee stuff by miles.
If you want the easy route:
Tapo. It literally has a “local only” mode so you can deny it any and all internets and it will still work - as long as you’re within your local home network.

All normals. You’ve copped several blows to your fundamental existence framework, and it’s gonna cause a retreat reaction.
You don’t have to be a nerd to play with things, just take the pressure off. It’s an experiment. You are beginning to learn how to do things, to explore things, stop expecting it to work perfectly.
And try startpage.com when looking up stuff. It’s actually useful

Nah, rail against the enshittification!
I have one modern win machine. And it’s only there to keep my hand in professionally. Want me to sign up for something? Fuck off. Need me to download an app? Download my arse. I refuse to partake in a broken system. Eat me.

Ikea sensor and smart socket integrated into home assistant with no ikea apps or architecture. When you lick the sensor it shuts off the (test) fan and messages His Lordship’s phone with “I Wet Myself”

par for the course there’s a tiiiiny drip leak on link to the tap that only shows up when they start hitting 75% capacity. Before the shutoff and past the barrel union. Of course. (every other tank has a shutoff and barrel union so I can take any tank out I like and keep going, but of course the last one just goes straight into the shutoff connected to the pump. So I’ll have to drain the little shit before re-taping the threads. When I can be arsed.)

a few months back Bunnings did a recruitment drive and just started shoving retail staff in that are absolute seatwarmers. Couldn’t find their own arses with a goddamn gps.
