I've had a Raspberry Pi Zero W sitting under my soundbar for about a year. The job description was simple: be the one device on the soundbar's Bluetooth allowlist so I never have to repair anything, and play whatever audio my MacBook shoves at it. That's it. No screen, no DAC, no hat. Just a tiny board acting as a permanent Bluetooth client.

Getting there involved more yak-shaving than I'd like…

After recently rebuilding the 4RoadService web server on Debian 13, Browsershot wasn't working right. It wasn't working at all. We run Laravel on a slightly old-school LAMP setup with PHP-FPM, and run the Laravel workers as the www-data user, the same user that runs the web server, so that user needed to be able to...

This was a particularly busy month for me in terms of Debian contributions.

It started with a week in Hamburg for the MiniDebConf. I talked to many colleagues face-to-face and worked on various bugs and maintenance tasks. I’m pleased to have finally found the time to reproduce and fix the boot-time crashes in the parallel port
