Is ADHD in adults where you’re in a pub and can’t switch off as you’ve realised you should just spin up another LXC container and see the results? This I shall be doing all night tonight.

That WSPR data MH370 thing is fucking brilliant. Has it been proved reliable by the Uni of Liverpool test? Presume so now a fresh search has been given the go ahead.

Well, that’s a record. Put some last summers defrosted meat out for the fox at 16:40 (after sunset and in the rain), it arrived within 5 minutes. Lucky young thing.

Decided to migrate from ZHA to Zigbee2MQTT the other day. Turns out my Conbee 2 stick is shit. Bought Sonoff one. Re-add everything, fix all the automations, quite the 24 hours of fun. Today I decided to now update the firmware. Zero issues, phew.

Woah, big up to the wind farms at the moment, producing nearly 60% of our power. Exporting 18% to France, hope that is for a decent dollar. Personally, we should have zero transfers until gas generation is at zero.

This is the electric bill I like to see, 4 kWh and 13 pence spent. Already clawing back after the dunkelflaute.

Moving cold turkey from ZHA to Zigbee2MQTT on a Conbee 2 has been a disaster. Ordered a SONOFF Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus-E Gateway. Am I still going to be in a world of pain?

Have the national grid data going into my Home Assistant since yesterday. Quite fascinating watching the nuclear power ramping up following a refuelling, presumably at Heysham 2, Reactor 8. The EDF website isn't very reliable, but this data is better.

Well, glad to be over that hill. But I’ve still spent less this week than if I’d been on the government rate.

Can we make it more of a law that pubs show prices. Just broke the £7 barrier.

Loving my solar input this time of year.

Jeez pt 2, with 40% of nuclear offline this is hurting. But I’d have paid 50% more this year on the standard capped rate.

#bbcqt shouldn't it be the role of a local representative (politician) to say what we, the voters, want? Did Sir Ed Davey ask any voters how they felt about assist to die? Or do they just do what they feel, and forget about us?
