It's not the final step in restoration by any means, but wow.

Off to bed, letting the PC restore three episodes of the original Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy. Just watching it unfurl at 5 frames a second is amazing.

And it's only going to get better.

AI might be able to restore the footage, but can't help with the 80s Brit fashion.

I really hope someone doesn't have the email address LetMeRead@Yourf*ckingArticle.com ...

Also, if so, what is wrong with you ...

Am currently using my @nvidia 4080 to convert old David Attenborough DVDs to AI remastered 1080p video.

This hour-long episode will take 3 hours to fix.

I know I say that we're "living in the future" a lot, but this is next level.

Good moaning folks.

New home server is looking good. Few issues, but today we're installing docker into the WSL2 layer and *expanding* available services somewhat.

Support apps for Plex (running native), a Nextcloud for family, plus tha amazing Coolify.

why isn't there a jedi that just hard activates the safety on blasters, i don't think they're the pacifists they say they are

There is a flow, a way arms move, when using a sword or even a stick. When an actor doesn't follow that, it's so out of place. They seem almost "gangly".

Yes, I'm talking about the Jedi.

Good moaning folks.

Today, we're installing IDEs and configuring them. RAD Studio to play with Delpi and rapid dev, Visual Studio and VSCode, plus a shared VSCode instance for "experiments" plus. of course, a full IntelliJ setup for Minecraft modding.

It's time to create.

I think I've figured out Dril.

They're a time traveller from our future, who discovered the only way possible to not break the timeline.

Just use the Jeff Goldblum lorum ipsum generator.

PC: You do plan to have dinosaurs on your dinosaur tour, right?
NPC1: You really think you can fly that thing?
NPC2: What do they got in there? King Kong?
PC: Jaguar shark!
NPC2: God help us, we're in the hands of engineers.

The new Mac Mini has been an education! Got the Apple Keyboard & Magic Mouse too. Adore the touchpad in the mouse. And the keyboard?

Took a bit to adjust, but now I'm getting tired fingers from the Windows PC's mechanical keyboard. 🫠

When looking at a purchase above $100, take a day to chew it over.

The same applies to hosting email or DNS.

That moment when you want to shift your main email to your own server.

It's okay.
The madness will pass.

Just archived so many old emails, I felt Gmail shudder from here ...

To the Twitch folks about to get laid off .. and those waiting in dread until they're told ..

I just want to take a moment to thank you, and remind you, you are not the company. You helped changed lives.

Keep going. ❤️

don't forget to love yourself today

Good moaning folks.

The file transfer of uberness continues, 8TB overnight and another 2.3TB to go. Then we reformat the gaming PC, push to Win11Pro Canary there as well, and .. Mostly Done!

My goodness but I miss gaming heh. Let's hang out soon.

Just enrolled in the Windows 11 Canary release cycle. Got a thousand ideas, and want to test/dev all the things.

We battle the bugs, so you won't have to.

Looking forward to testing out @Cloudflare's Zero Trust with a home/dev network. Means I should be able to run a "local" nextcloud for our family .. will be fun to test it all out.

One worry though is "streaming" media. Cache that, and it's against normal ToS, as far as I know.

The battle with a z370 mobo has been real today. During the bios upgrade path, was informed there were no more upgrades.

Except for that little S3 thingy. Had to manually put the final update over what it said. Little frightening.

9 hours, finally got TPS2 configured right.
