Good morning! Random thought of the morning. It’s been months since last having a McDonalds, and I don’t hate it. Garbage food that’s overpriced. Used to be a time where it’s good value. Gone are those days. #gm

Nostr is a weird place. Not sure how I feel about it.

I initially thought this was a joke on my BBC News feed. How does one even steal a toilet. Also.. The toilet was called America?? #news

What a fantastic looking day, for being stuck in the office 😶‍🌫️

We live in a weird timeline.

Spent some time last night putting together a standard design for feature images on my blog. Previously, they were just whatever I felt like chucking together at the time, with no standard design. Happy with the outcome. Simple to maintain and all a common size/ theme.

New blog post surrounding MCP (Model Context Protocol). Unfamiliar with the concept myself, researching and writing this article helped me understand it significantly more. I hope others can garner insight from my article! artofinfra.com/what-is-mcp/

Last night was dope. Catching YM@6 for the final time hit deep.

In a bit of a “dillema”. As time goes on, I’m finding AI and automation (business, AI, infra, generalised) more and more interesting. So much so, it would be great to build a community around this and start creating content.

Who would’ve thought that placing the internets trust in the two largest mobile monopolies would restrict web growth. After all, App stores aren’t a charity. At least Apple and google would make you believe anyway.

This whole tariff warfare is really grinding on me.

Took a little time to put together a personal blog of thoughts and self-reflection on life. The blog serves as a place for my long form thoughts that don't fit in social media. First article; My previous problem of being a yes man to everyone else but myself. danjones.io/the-explicit...

Hello friends from the Twitter downtime.

Watching the US stock markets crash is my guilty pleasure.

Cloudflare pages is life.

Simple Make and Linear automation to start the day. Another scenario takes new issues created in Linear and populates the data store and creates the issue post in Teams. I love the simplicity with Make automations. Anything that requires something more complex, I look to custom script out.

Far too much DIY over the last few days. Need a couple days break before I go for more.

Flat pack furniture is the bane of my existence right now.

It’s a new week. What nonsense can we get up to this week?

Paying my doggo tax.

I don’t need it. I don’t need it. don’t need it. I don’t need it. don’t need it. I don’t need it. Damn, I need it

Tonight’s read from @raspberrypi.com . Doggo for warms

I built the best (worst) IaC (IaN - Infra as Notion) tool ever. Introducing Notion IaC - The best IaC tool. Deploy resources in AWS with ease by simply inputting what resources you require, hit build and let Notion do the rest.

I find it refreshing that Bluesky doesn’t make me feel the urge to throw my phone across the room, unlike X.

There’s a weird trend going on where people think it’s ok to freely insult a person without repercussions, whether they suffer from a disability or something more. I guess these are the types of people who never fucked around and found out. But don’t worry! It’s online, it’s not real!

Looks like I’ll be sticking with the 3080 for a bit longer :).

Last night we lost our beloved Pandora. Our cat had been with me through everything over 15 years, but last night was her time. It’s her time for peace. Picture from 2011.

Oh hi there @jetkvm.bsky.social Tomorrow’s fun is ready to go and my Proxmox cluster will be complete.

Running Deepseek R1 locally on Ollama has been fun. Everyone should give it a go. My 3080 struggles, though, because of the limited VRAM, so I'm currently running this on my M1 Max MBP which runs the distilled Deepseek 14b model efficiently. Maybe a 5080 is on the cards for better inference.

NVidia was way overpriced anyway.

Saw this car on my travels earlier. No further comment needed.

Primered and caulked

Day of priming/ painting

Enjoying the peace today following all the drama yesterday. I know it won’t last long, but I’m enjoying it.

Since Trump has signed the exec order to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, does this mean he can force the hands of Google, Apple etc who pretty much own the landscape of global maps to rename this? Thinking about it, it's disturbing that America controls maps.

Alright, heres 'following but just videos'. Maybe i'll rename it but i'm kinda lazy.
