Today I am supposed to get my soldering iron and also work on fixing the network card issue I've been fighting with.
Both happened. I got the iron and the network problem ended being power management. Turning it off fixed things. Mostly. I think I still have a problem with the local network.
Awaiting the keyboard. Also saw a cool way to build a UPS of sorts out of batteries that I might try in the near future.
Got the keyboard only to discover that I was missing about five of the diodes I need. And know the other iron and radio got shipped that were supposed to be canceled. I also cannot solder for shit.
Day two of trying to get this damned keyboard together.
Discovered this morning that GitLab has blocked my account.
Sometime during the night GitLab found that it was an automatic flag and corrected it. I have still launched Lacia, who will grab daily copies from GitLab and store them on her server. I also plan to have her do other functions I haven't fully figured out yet.
I got the Thetis key today and changed out my password manager as well. I'll do a complete audit and change all of my passwords next. It's a neat little device, to be honest. Tomorrow should be a lot of soldering I would imagine, and I really need the practice.
Feeling cute, might put up a blog post later, I dunno.
I have Lacia up, now that I have control of GitLab again, I need to set up a script or two to handle basic house keeping and keep things under control. Might name that process either Kouka or Saturnus. Not sure yet.
Spent part of the day soldering the speaker kit that came in yesterday.
Began working on the git update script on Lacia to get a good copy of my data on a daily basis.
Moving forward this week.
