Designed and printed a light base for glass blocks.

Designed and printed a base for glass blocks. It has a circuit board that I designed and software written by me. It is controllable via MQTT and I have it integrated with HomeKit via Home Bridge.

I really should finish season 3.

Uh. Once you hit the last episode of season 1, it's nearly impossible not to finish the season.

It took me a minute though. I knew I recognized it from somewhere, but my German is currently at a toddler level so I know I didn't read the book haha.

Thank you, I am really happy with how it turned out.

Looks neat ^^ Does it serve any purpose or is it "just" decorative?
Also, is that Kodak banding some kind of filter or did you really shoot the photos with a non-digital camera?

ghostseven@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y

It is purely decorative, it could be used to indicate air quality with different colours or alert to events, it is controllable via MQTT and I have it tied into my HomeKit setup. It is just a filter, I needed to break up the individual pictures, I have not used a non digital camera in quite some time.

(Also god damn Lemmy is broken right now, been trying to post this comment on and off for hours now).
