Tried searching for "red high top sneakers under $40", and the first result was a shaft seal? The next result was a red high top sneaker so good, but it had a price of '0', bad. Th…

I used to monitor CO2 in the house with Awair units, specifically those because it allegedly interacted with my Ecobee AC control. So I could say if the levels were rising, force t…

I went with Ecobees mainly because they offer the easy export of your data and have an open API to interop with. I originally planned to use my HomeAssistant install to orchestrate…

For the ASD-B traffic I use the FlightAware USB dongles - https://flightaware.com/adsb/prostick/ And for the general radio, I use the RTL-SDR Blog USB dongle - https://www.amazon.c…

For the airplane data, I always liked browsing sites like flightradar24, planefinder etc, and wondered how they aggregated the data, and it sort of just went from there. I also now…

Disney now have exactly what you described in your first project as a photo opportunity at the Magic Kingdom. https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2019/05/enjoy-new-dis...

2 Pis for dealing with ADS-B (airplane data), one for 1090Mhz, the other for 978Mhz. I could run that on the same one, but seemed easier to just split them up given some of the sof…

Sure, if you PR some example tests in I can make that happen.

It supports MongoDB, MySQL and PostgreSQL at the moment. It's really easy to add extra engines, you can even write your own custom ones and include them. But it's mainly dealing wi…

We transfer our backups to S3, so there's always a chance that it could be corrupted during transfer, or that the compression could have failed before transfer. It can also help ca…

I created this tool a while ago, but since it's apparently world backup day I thought it a good time to submit it here. It was created out of the fact that we run automated backups…

Not a web game, but The Swapper has similar mechanics - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Swapper

I think this is happening because of the.. haphazard way we're showing the file list inside the deb. In future this will be cached. If you refresh again it usually works fine. Chee…

If you are logged in and view a package (eg. https://pkghub.io/users/limi/projects/snzip/packages/f3d-snz... ), there's a download link on the right under 'Meta'. It's just hidden …

Still trying to figure that bit out at the moment, I suspect we'll go down the Github model, public projects are free, private projects you pay for. Quite open to recommendations/o…

Whoops, will get that fixed once the lockdown period ends in the competition. Have to wait until Thursday unfortunately.
