Had lots of fun making the first small batch of maple syrup for the year. Brought home 20L of sap, boiled it until about 2am on the fire, and ended up with about 650ml of syrup.
Picture of my dog, Lou 14 years ago today... She is not doing so well the past few days, but still alive, and had a lil sniff around that same stump a couple days ago. Time flies.

I realized on old devices they still struggle bootstrapping with nipopow and snapshots, so I made the script detect hardware specs and automatically use stateless if the device is too potato
The Android Ergo Node app install script has been updated. It now bootstraps using NiPoPoW and a UTXO set snapshot.
Just do a fresh install, and it will use the updated script. If you want to test it, check out:
Ok I figured out how to bootstrap an Ergo node via nipopow and UTXO set snapshot on mobile. So far it is working with rocksdb node 5.1.2.
Because leveldb versions are not working with aarch64 for some reason for me, even if I try the aarch64 release.
The only small issue is that termux does not have glibc (it uses musl libc like Alpine linux), so rocksdb does not work out of the box... Just need to setup an arch linux proot to run it.
I will make a step by step instruction soon and add nipopow config to the ergo node android app when I figure out best settings.
Working on making the #node interface work better on mobile for myself, since I mainly use mobile for everything... Maybe will add this interface on top of the Android ergo node app as webview if I can figure any if this out.
It would be cool to have this work well on the node panel by default... I may be too dumb to contribute to that though :)
I decided to dust this off and get it working again (it stopped installing properly about a year ago because of dependency issues)
Anyway, it works again, so now its easy for people to install the #node on #Android with one click.
I've tried installing Star Wars Outlaws twice (when it was released, and last night) but it just won't detect my controller :(
Had to refund it again... I could probably figure it out but the refund window is just too small.
I love tiger.sh! It is so nice to have precompiled binaries available so easily for my g4 powermac (compiling anything on it takes ages). I recently reinstalled 10.4 tiger on a newer drive, and rediscovered this great tool.
Bought ten of these old 2 terabyte drives today for pretty cheap. $10 Canadian each.
Will be using them to backup my photo/video library, important files, and stuff like that. Leave a couple backups at my off grid cabin, just in case.
All of them work perfect, no bad sectors with about 60000 hrs
All of my family's computers run Linux... except this one! Its an old powermac G4 400mhz that I use to backup our immich library. I have a 1tb hard drive in it, and backup using rsync. It sits in another area of our property, so if anything happened to my main machine we won't loose our photos.
