Every time I have to use a webshop or talk about monitors I see resolutions being named wrong so I finally write a post about it.

I have used a lot of cameras but never made one myself. Specifically one optimized for live streaming so it just outputs the camera feed over HDMI.

At some point BodgeOS has become an actually usable system. Now I have WiFi and networking working I've been using it as my main development system for a bit.

Alpine Linux splits packages in smaller chunks to have the possibility to have a smaller install size. What if I take this to the extreme with the kernel package.

It is once again the last weeks of the year and I felt like messing with BodgeOS again to see if I can get my laptop in a state where I can use it at FOSDEM.

Don't pick random subnets to avoid IP address conflicts on foreign networks, use VRFs!

Building a brower game inspired by drawing a PCB in KiCad

There's steady progress towards Megapixels 2.0 Alpha 2 with a lot of small improvements, but there's also a massive roadblock introduced by the GTK developers...

It's a bit more than a month after FOSDEM now. The few bits of hardware I designed for the video capture boxes for the event held up great. I realized I never wrote a blog post about it so here it is.

Getting Firefox to build and work in BodgeOS took quite a bit of effort.. and patience..

Finally after a lot of work I felt it was a good idea to close off this year by tagging the first actual release of the Megapixels 2.0 codebase.

Continuing on my December puzzle of building a toy Linux distribution from scratch. This time getting it to boot up on an actual computer instead of just a container.

A few days ago I got a new laptop and once again had to make a choice of what distribution to install

Building my own replacement for my InfluxDB and Prometheus setups

Sometimes the custom 5-port gigabit switch _is_ the solution.

Generating OpenSCAD cases from KiCad PCB files with a bit of Python code and magic.

The last two weeks in Megapixels: Contributors

As projects get more complicated the tooling has to improve. Outgrowing the arduino-ide is easy on the Pi Pico with the excelent pico-sdk but what if things get even more complicated...

sudo chroot without sudo... and mostly without the chroot

A FOSS digital audio mixer, now with 100% more custom hardware.

The dilemma of releasing a half-working library early to promote contributions.

So this is the (looks at notes) 9th! blog post about the progress in Megapixels development. In this episode: White-balance and SEGFAULTs!

MNT Research is an open hardware manufacturer based in Germany. I'll have a look at their open standalone keyboard.

I did a deep dive in Linux logging protocols for writing logbookd. Here are some of the results.

One of the things that is very broken in Megapixels 2.0 is actually saving pictures, so here I will embark on a side-quest to make a new DNG exporting library that moves the code out of Megapixels.
