It feels strange to have so much free time. It almost feels like every day is a weekend…

Though at least I found the inspiration to learn some digital electronics & embedded programming!

It's time to figure out what to do with this thing (yes, I actually have one!).

It would be too easy to just let it copy and paste. So far my idea is to hook it up to a RPi Pico and use it for:
- controlling lights across the room
- controlling the KVM switch I have for switching my peripherals from my work laptop to my PC (not needed for now 😂)
- volume control for my DAC via IR
- turning on my desktop PC (with wake on LAN or just hooking up a relay to the power pins)

Other ideas welcome!
