Rant on Smart Home Lights

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. ...

Level Devil

Level Devil is a short platformer where each level tries to trick you into failing. I believe nobody can complete it without dying on the first try. You will probably rage and start questioning each and every step you make on the way to complete the game but exactly that makes the game enjoyable.

fastfetch

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. It is also easily installable through Homebrew. 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. ...

The Current State of the iPhone

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. It has everything the normal consumer needs (apart from maybe the ultrawide camera in specific scenarios). The design is simple but I really don’t like the pill camera array on the back. ...

Steam Hardware

Right after I published my blog post on Handheld Gaming, Valve decided to announce new Steam Hardware. — actually kinda funny. So the Steam Deck does not yet get an update. The Steam Controller looks interesting. Remove the display from the Steam Deck and improve ergonomics and voilà, you have the new controller. Steam Frame looks nice and all but I am not the audience for a VR headset. I have tried VR gaming once and it was not really my thing. ...

Handheld Gaming

Since I like to game and want to divide my devices into singular usecases, I have often thought about getting a portable and or couch gaming device. One great option would be the Nintendo Switch 2. It gives you access to a bunch of games that only work on a Switch and are great local multiplayer couch games. If I would go this route then I would gain access to all the franchises I enjoyed as a child with the Nintendo DS and Wii. Because there is no OLED version of the Switch 2 I have not yet pulled the trigger to buy it. ...
