Work is over for the year and I’ve got a couple of weeks off until 6th January. Last year I was working and on call over this time, but this year I’m going to try to disconnect completely from anything work related. Logged out of Slack, disabled Opsgenie notifications (hopefully..) and I already avoided putting work email and teams on my phone. There are a couple of people who can call me or message on signal if anything is seriously wrong but that is about it.

I think it could be close but we might be ok.

I don’t generally watch much sport but it is a pretty good night here for it tonight.

Christmas around the city

Good morning! ☕️🫂 Last day of work for the year. Hoping it will be a quiet one and I can finish early!

Very impressive Christmas light show synchronised to music.

For anyone interested the technology behind these types of displays, they are built with strips or strings of individually addressable LED pixels allowing the colour of each pixel to be controlled. The pixel strips/strings are driven by ethernet connected pixel controllers using E1.31 (a protocol for sending DMX lighting control over IP). Open source software such as xLights or Vixen Lights allows the pixels to be grouped into the elements of the display, and effects applied to each element to create the sequences synchronised to the music.

That might depend on who you are playing with! 😂

It’s only a fun game if you are winning.. 😂

Also some of the early novelty of zaps has worn off now. When they were new people would zap anything just for fun whereas now I think people are more targeted with what they zap. We also used to have regular zapathons which have died down now.

Tonight’s walk

Damus doesn’t have zaps for notes enabled by default due to Apple App Store restrictions.. There is a script that enables zaps:

None that I’ve come across.

Ahhh that’s a massive “No” as nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 is the CEO of Nostr 🫡🤣🤣

I mean, I can be his assistant though 😉😉

So Nostr COO then?

Yeah they have a good variety of different cheeses to try!

The Adelaide Central Market is a great place to find a range of quality meat, seafood, cheese, fruit & vegetables.
