My watch wearing journey started off with a simple Xiaomi Mi Band to test if I actually liked the feeling on my wrist. After having worn one for about a year I decided to get a Samsung Galaxy Watches with the rotating dial.

This is a living document that might evolve over time. Setup I generally try to keep the setup as simple and minimal as possible.

You might have read my last post about the Home Assistant I have running on my server and the setup I created. Honestly I have nothing to complain about and it works flawlessly. BUT I had one simple thing that changed my mind about lights with smart integration - the usability. It’s great if you have a (Shelly) button/switch to control the lights and not need an app or a website for a simple action such as turning on you lights. I also configured it to change brightness with increments and stuff like that depending on what button I pressed and how often. The main problem was the ability to move the button around and therefore it felt like it was always on the opposite side of the room. Turning the lights off while in bed was nice though. ...

This year I started to play more indie titles and single-player games. I still like competitive online games but sometimes you just want to relax. I also switched to Fedora (Linux) for the first time ever since Windows 10 support ended and Microsoft has been making (imo) stupid decisions. If you want to see the detailed version, you can check it out on Steam directly.

fastfetch is a simple terminal tool that let’s you display a bunch of system information inside the terminal. I primarily use it to show key information every time I start up a new terminal window. Custom Config I would suggest running the fastfetch -c all.jsonc command to see all the options available to you. Furthermore you should also check out the official config template. To change the default config just place config.jsonc and myascii.txt inside ~/.config/fastfetch. ...

Sometimes I question myself if I should switch back to an Android phone. This time it is because of the Liquid Glass redesign and probably just wanting to try something new, shiny and different. Current iPhone lineup iPhone 17 The standard iPhone is the best deal of an iPhone we have seen in a long time.
