I don’t trust the government.

Should be a civil society or NGO.

Mainly telemetry, like temperature inside, outside.
Script to read a data and push it into a RRD, later PostreSQL.
ligthttpd to serve static content, later PHP.

Once it served as a bridge, between LAN and LTE USB modem.

Maybe not shit, but exotic at that time, year 2012.
The first Raspberry Pi, model B 512 MB RAM, with an external 40 GB 3.5" HDD connected to USB 2.0.

It was running ARM Arch BTW.

Next, cheap, second hand mini desktop Asus Eee Box.
32 bit Intel Atom like N270, max. 1 GB RAM DDR2 I think.
Real metal under the plastic shell.
Could even run without active cooling (I broke a fan connector).

IMAX 3D was impressive. Regular cinemas with 3D movies, meh.

I mean /s

That’s whole century.

News from 2011 about the HTC Thunderbolt dock.

Cold War Era 2.0.

The HDMI is a scam at this moment.

New standard, hmm, let’s make an extra profit it.
Another new cable to make, to buy.

Think about people working there.
They want a living wage at least.

Price, too good, to be true.

Similar device the PiKVM, starting at 139.09 USD e.g. PiKVM v3.3 HAT.
Plus cost of Raspberry PI 4.

Yeah, a bit suspicious.

I don’t have an instrument to measure it. But good clue.

I’m betting on bad airflow on some fixtures, installed by a landlord.
And/or bad switches? Legrand branded.
Some bulbs have cracked plastic housing.

They are rated 220-240 V AC, 50/60 Hz, I think have constant current regulator.

I need to replace LED bulbs/reflectors 2-3 times a year.
Osram, the best for it’s price range, but they are running too hot.

Were common until the EU regulations “kill” them.

Hmm, do we have an example?

Come on. Contact lenses could also correct an astigmatism.

Technically, no doc needed, go to the optic saloon and be examined by a optometrists.

Get your glasses, it’s a magic.
