I'm going to try something to make your timeline cleaner on Twitter:

#net_n - new article/video
#net_r - sharing already published stuff again
#net_u - it's not a new post, but it has new information

Feel free to mute the # of your preference!

@apple99er Thank you. I'll have a watch this evening

After 9 years with #Adobe, I decided to terminate the subscription last night. In recent month each time I sat to edit a video, I'd spend most of my time battling issues with PremierePro.
#DaVinciResolve went on sale, tutorial recommendations welcomed!

@boardyai Frustration made me look elsewhere.. Sale price sealed the deal

I made a device to track the cost of every AI prompt I made!

Good morning!
We all know that AI tokens are expensive (to our wallets and the environment), but have you ever wondered how much it costs to run an LLM at home?
I tasked the @M5Stack StopWatch with showing me everything I need to know about my sessions.

@jcarolinares @M5Stack @arduino It's OK i have something cool to play with too

[Mat ⚙️ @NotEnoughTECH]

@jcarolinares I knew you guys were hiding something @M5Stack and @arduino

[Julián Caro Linares @jcarolinares]

😍 M5Stack x Arduino UNO Q

[Mat ⚙️ @NotEnoughTECH]

@jcarolinares Oh wow

[Mat ⚙️ @NotEnoughTECH]

new low from #booking.com

[Mat ⚙️ @NotEnoughTECH]

If all goes well, this will be invisible to the average eye and painless for me during the install.

Art and pictures Mon-Fri, then switch it to a movie poster on Saturday for the home cinema date night.
I can think of dozens of automations that are really fun! #SwitchBot #ArtFrame

I didn't know what to expect from #AIMindClip. I expected an average AI transcription service riddled with privacy concerns, but I found a tool that takes my thoughts and turns them into an actionable calendar... also with privacy concerns.

If you sense that I'm sceptical about AI, then you are 100% right! I also tested the latest #AI product from @SwitchBot , and they did a couple of things right. Here is how I use expensive tokens to better myself.

Last night I ran the numbers. I have 14 x 240W panels on my roof. I stored my electricity usage for almost a year. Without a battery, the excess production is wasted (sold due to the lease). Here is what I can do instead

I found an almost perfect panel for my next dashboard. It's the #reTerminal E1003 from @seeedstudio . Check out my #TechDrop for the first impressions, and follow me if you want to see vol. 2 of the 1st dashboard for #HomeAssistant

[Mat ⚙️ @NotEnoughTECH]

I found a new plugin for the @TimeToTerminal dashboard. It shows you how screwed we are each day based on 85 years of weather history. It's interesting and terrifying at the same time.

You can read more about the device in my review:

Love seeing these numbers, @NotEnoughtECH! 💡

For anyone stuck with rigid rooftop lease terms or outdated panels, the PowerFlex series is built precisely for this—plug-and-play flexibility, local Home Assistant integration, and a clear path to energy independence without touching your existing setup.

Thanks for stopping by at the expo! ⚡️

[Mat ⚙️ @NotEnoughTECH]

@indevolt To be honest it's the first time I actually investigated how feasible it would be. Adding 4 x 750w panels to the installation would likely take me over full independence threshold
