M 8.8 - 2025 #Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia #earthquake as seen in #Edinburgh on my Raspberry Shake. Many smaller quakes and a #tsunami warning followed. Reported as one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded - in the top ten. USGS Earthquakes info: earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/ev…

We now have an Amber Warning associated with #StormFloris covering much of the #Hebrides and a large portion of Scotland. There'll be chances for 80/90mph gusts over exposed locations.

. Meshtastic Has support for the Raspberry Pi Pico been dropped or changed? I seem to be unable to find the latest firmware files - at least ones with the name like: firmware-picow-2.4.1.394e0e1.uf2. Thanks.

Playing with Meshtastic and - surprise, surprise - coverage is much better with a half-decent antenna, even if indoors. Surprised to see nodes as far away from #Edinburgh as #Belfast and #Darlington - if those positions are real, of course! White ring is location accuracy.

I've posted this on marketplace but I'll post here as well since a lot of you are into photography. Selling this Nikon 60mm macro. Excellent lens with beautiful bokeh. Would be great if you're in Sweden!

Fun with Amazon.co.uk today. I’m told that they can’t find my age to allow me to buy a kitchen knife but I /can/ buy a bottle of wine because the delivery driver will check my age….

#Pixel 10 Pro phone - claims X100 zoom. I tried it today hand-held. It seems that the phone automatically post processes the image to produce a sharper result. Original and processed paired here. The #moon is at x80 as the moon more than covers the x100 field!

Winter constellations starting to show now. #Orion #Sirius from #Edinburgh just before 05:00 UTC this morning. #Pixel10Pro phone camera, 6 second exposure, pressed against the window frame for support.
