Have you guys tried pi coding agent? I’m running it with a llama.cpp with unsloth qwen3.8_q4_k_xl with mtp and no vision mmproj for extra speed. Feels almost frontier like. I ditched Hermes and opencode as they felt too bloated for local models.

5k The next time you need an EV charger I recommend openevse. It is open hardware/software. https://openevse.com/ I bought mine in 2017. It lives in my garage in MN. I have had to fix it twice but ordered the parts fixed it myself. I just ordered the esp32 based wifi module to upgrade the original esp8266 which will let me run new firmware with features I'm excited about. I just started using the HACS integration as well. I don't have solar yet but openEVSE has features for charging based on solar production.

5k The thing on my desk I fidget with most is a stress ball that looks like the earth branded by Littlefuse. I also fidget with a plastic ring with a fake stone that spins and makes a satisfying sound. It fits my pinky...

20k We've started to do 'bowls' for family and friend gatherings. Each person brings a few things. Think of all the options at a Chipotle or similar. You can set a theme for the bowl like Mexican, Indian, Korean etc. It seems to work well for dietary restrictions as you build your own bowl. Also I think it allows people to put in as much or as little work as they want. The challenge is coordination, with small groups a group chat works but large groups you need a sign-up spreadsheet with categories.

5k I just used opencode with their free model to unpin then remove a bunch of pinned but unsupported flatpaks. At work I've been using GitHub copilot for a year or so. So far it is just making me slightly more productive. However more important is I will more often try things I'm less familiar with because the cost of trying them is a couple minutes writing a prompt. For example I added dark mode to an internal JavaScript site on a Friday afternoon. It took hours overall, my 1st time using JavaScript, but the 1st prompt gave immediate results and I got hooked.

5k Sounds like you need a cat or 7. Business idea: killer cat for hire
I thoroughly enjoyed the unplugged StarCraft edition but wouldn't want more than 10% gaming per year.
And now time to plug your membership program and brag that I've been a member for 3 years. I listen to the unplugged bootleg and just subscribed the launch bootleg due to someone mentioning it in another boost.

PSA: Avoid HP 840 G9 12th gen Intel for Linux. I couldn't get any sort of low power state to work. Sleep battery drain was >10% per hour on Linux. On Windows it was <1%. I tried NixOS, popOS and Fedora. I put maybe 8 hours of troubleshooting in ~2 months ago but nothing made it better.
