@LASTEXITshirts It really scratched the itch of the From hiatus for me. Great having the extended lore. Can't wait for more to come!

I suddenly find myself down the rabbit hole of WLED and Home Assistant. Getting more and more out from the cloud and self hosting instead.

Private ✔️
More control ✔️
Fewer subscriptions ✔️

...and yes I'm running WLED on its own vlan with no access to the outside world 😉

@TechnoTimLive Can I have whatever you're replacing it with? 😂

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@ciaranokeeffe @BBCGlos Wizbit. Especially the episodes with Badbit, the evil twin.

The new PC Plum song is an absolute banger #balamory

@danny_robins spotted this little fella in the wild at @Parkdeanresorts #treccobay arcade, although, at that ticket price I'd sooner take my chances with the Easter Island head!

Not a single regret moving to the UniFi ecosystem for home. Seeing the Travel Router in action has cemented that belief. All the family's devices connected in seconds, but more importantly, secured to my home connection through an easy to set up VPN.

@karentraviss I originally followed you as a fan of your Gears or War novels\comics. Stayed for the political banter and food porn.

@LarryBundyJr Does Double Dragon count?

@danny_robins @BBCSounds Nightmare fuel!

@antoniabance Do they have to seek permission from the highways before digging up? I'm not up on the subject but that would make sense to me. A guiding mind would be great!

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@danny_robins great storytelling this evening, had an absolute blast. Looking forward to Uncannycon for the next fix. But can you answer me this - was Grace Dent off of actual Master Chef in the audience?

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@danny_robins Please tell me you'll be visiting Cock Lane for some Fanny scratching?

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@UnraidOfficial Great content by Ed, as always.

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@ciaranokeeffe @substack It was great chatting with you last night and it was a fascinating insight into your world of parapsychology. I'll give this a read before next week's session.

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@danny_robins thank you for the signed books. I've gifted one to my niece, who is currently off school after having an op on her leg. Bonus uncle points for it being a signed copy!

[Mike @Smudgerling]

@qwertee I'm trying to add one in the bag but the button doesn't seem to be doing anything. Please help.
