So I got a stuck #Evolution from time to time. No mailbox or calendar would load and Evolution eventually claim that it can’t connect to the accounts. Turns out this is quite literal. I’m on #GNOME and that has a framework for single sign-ins called GNOME Online Accounts or GOA for short (that thing I wish the Nextcloud client would USE too). Apparently this happens _sometimes_ after standby/suspend, that I use quite often to save on power, so it was really hard to find. Looks like the goa-daemon gets stuck on resume. There is nothing in the journal or so.…

Crimped roughly 250 connectors and did lots of soldering. Still WIP but I rolled the first successful button tests!!1eleven Ignore the wobbling, there are almost no supporting frames behind for easier access to the wires.

I’ll probably need this again so writing it up: #bugwarrior is an awesome little helper syncing tasks to #taskwarrior (where I use #timewarrior to track hours spent). It connects to various ticket systems like #Redmine, #Jira or #GitLab. Today I had to tweak it a little though, because I have no idea where to put client certificates for Python’s requests lib and my current customer requires that. Any HTTPS request without will fail with status code 400: No required SSL certificate was sent. For this I edited ~/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/bugwarrior/services/gitlab.py line 364 from this: response = requests.get(url, headers=headers, verify=self.verify_ssl, **kwargs) to response…

I like eye-candy for my #WordPress #hCard and for the longest time I did override the generic icon for missing SVGs via CSS. This never fixed the titles thought and after starting to mass non descriptive links all named “website” I started to dig into the code class-relme-domain-icon-map.php of the #IndieWeb plugin. Update: Well fck, the entire svg folder gets replaced on update of the IndieWeb plugin. Good idea to backup additional SVGs so they can be copied back on Update. Proxmox snapshot for the win! Turns out Rel_Me_Domain_Icon_Map does some file system shacking for unknown domains in wp-content/plugins/indieweb/static/svg/ so…

🤓 Painted the button box, added more buttons and the LCD and set it to playing the #BSG DRADIS animation[1] of the Pegasus just for show: Next is wiring everything up (and when that is done finishing the frame for the display) and add decals. Same thing really to see how it feels: #SimPit [1] The Loop was created by David Gian-Cursio (https://www.gian-cursio.net/2016/07/battlestar-pegasus-dradis-screens/) for Diaspora: Shattered Armistice (a total conversion for the FreeSpace Open engine).

Kids got to pick movies yesterday. Beside one of the Dragons movies (again 😩 ) they surprisingly settled on #Nimona. That was surprisingly a lot of fun and I really dig the art style and that totally weird combination of a self isolating medieval town set in a Sci-Fi setting. Which… you know… kinda totally nails two of my interests 🤓 Would watch again 👌

Did some test assembly today. Running out of buttons. I have to salvage my version 1 now which kinda sucks because I won’t be able to actually play with it any more 😆 Still very happy with the result 👌 #Macross #SimPit
