Our telescope is blooming like a flower in space! This marks the start of a major phase to #UnfoldTheUniverse: our sunshield deployment. First, what is our sunshield? 5️⃣ layers 🎾 Opens to the size of a tennis court 🛡️ Protects Webb’s optics from the Sun https://t.co/tTGIWqFAz8

Last night's #astrophotography bounty. Might start rounding these up in to blog posts instead

Just getting started with telescopes and astrophotography. Here's Jupiter and the moon from the backyard despite light pollution. Shot with a Celestron 130eq and a Nokia 7.2 phone on 9/13/21 Composite of 20 images

First vaccine is in the books! Super glad to finally get it

Hundreds of thousands of DC residents had to endure a coup in their backyard today, go into curfew at 6pm, and fear for their personal safety. None of them have any representation in Congress.

It's Juneteenth today. Take a moment to reflect on what this means to people of color in this country. At * LEAST * read this https://t.co/bHgcezgme8 Better yet, read a book, there are lists out there. Listen to black music, there's a lot to be learned in the art of the oppressed

Getting the root path of an Electron application is surprisingly complicated depending on your environment. Here's what did work, and what didn't work for me. Your mileage may vary https://t.co/ZcsM2aT1be

Friendly reminder that git is NOT centralized! 🚀

Finally got my last device working from OpenHAB => Home Assistant. Turns out setting up the Aeotec Wallmote is fairly painful. Also personal note: "activiated" is not a word when writing code

Giving Home Assistant a try. Very impressed coming from OpenHAB. Got all my devices paired, no automations quite yet

Bonus points if you've had a drive fail on both and replaced it

Considering replacing a Synology with either Unraid or FreeNAS. Any experience with either or both? Positive or negative? Trying to figure out a low power setup, dumb file store. Maybe reuse an old Atom board? Too weak?

This is from Antiques Roadshow 😆

This is the stay the f*ck home bear. Stay the f*ck home for a few weeks or it's coming after you

Due to recent events granting a little more time, I cleaned up and open sourced a bunch of bash functions to help setup iptables as a firewall on Linux. Bring your own warranty

Audacious golazo. Insanity; more of this please #USMNT

While perhaps obvious, turn off motion smoothing, which is my annual tradition for friends and family

The final screen to cancel your @FloFC_ subscription is deceptive at best. "There was an error". There was not. And "Claim Offer" is bizarrely disabled. The link to actually cancel is tiny and this is the third screen in the cancel flow. Pretty much sums up the experience #DCU
