Feeling a bit guilty that the GPU heat I'm generating in a data center somewhere can't be put to use heating someone's home.
Oh wow. OTA (over-the-air) updates on ESP8266 boards has gotten a lot easier. Maybe only one more round of crawling into the attic to re-flash firmware.

this one's going to be useful.
Black Friday conveniently coincides with a need to replace two ancient USB backup drives.

C'mon people, someone has to be there to fix stuff.
Impeachment hearings are on in the background. Productivity today is taking a big hit. Also, would somoene please drop Nunes in the ocean?
Entirely too much of today was spent finding the pea under the stack of mattresses.
Feels like a good morning to refine problem statements
