    I've installed Thingino on my cameras such as this. Cheap camera + custom (local only!) firmware is a good solution imo. No guarantee that it'll be perfect either, obviously, but i…

    I've been recommended the deformed baby video a few times recently - it's somewhat reassuring, though worrying, that others are seeing the same thing. I'm especially frustrated abo…

    I think my favourite simple example to illustrate this is thinking of (or image searching a picture of) a lemon. A lot of people can feel increased saliva production under their to…

    ha, as the author of most of the code on the client side (and thus those beefy requirements), yes it absolutely is possible to use an ESP32! and that’s more along the lines of the …

    Regardless if you need a visa or not, you cannot (legally) stay more than 90 days every 180 days outside of the country you have a visa for. Even as a permanent resident of Germany…

    Careful, the blue card won't let you move around Europe as a citizen. They're issued by individual countries, so you'll have residency rights in that country, but standard "90 in 1…

    fwiw, https://github.com/sbooth/SFBAudioEngine is a great library for supporting other formats, helps with gapless, and is reasonably easy to drop in. I've dropped it into an audio…
