Please, I have exactly two brain cells to rub together and I can’t have either of them to getting distracted.

“Marco, Arco…”

“Polo, Pilot.”

Arco is gonna be the name of my bike, if I ever finish building it, and I was thinking about setting it up with a Pi and some voice assistant integration (don’t ask me how. One thing at a time).

Pilot has some weird disassociative /existential fuckery involved in it.



Mod Idea Collaboration: Embedded Loss Prevention
Hello folks, I just had a 'wake in the night' sort of idea (which is something I'm sure the Fins have a word for) so now I'm wondering if enough Lemmings could put their heads together to find some other, hopefully much better, solutions for loss prevention. My idea, which I think is only good enough to get the conversation going, is to disassemble an Airtag, rig the Deck to support its power needs (I don't know how this would be achieved), and then embed the finished product somewhere (I don't know that, either) inside the case. A hardware-side solution, like this, would allow the Deck to be tracked regardless of software changes. If the solution is internal it couldn't be detected, and it could function regardless of power state —— but at the expense of the Deck's battery capacity. If the solution is external it could have independent power —— but would be detectable, snagable, and removable. A software-side solution might be achievable, especially with Linux, and it would likely use much-less power —— but it would require the device to be not-off and not-factory-reset (which can be achieved with a few keystrokes in the settings menu). What ideas do y'all have?
