Is buying a thermal printer on ebay and then hooking it up to a raspberry pi and finally setting up an mqtt server to beam messages to it from various devices around the house a totally normal thing to be doing at 10pm on a weekday? If so, I am having a totally normal one. Totally normal.
@herdingdata ahhh I've been wanting to do this for so long! Then hook it into homeassistant and have it print daily schedules etc
@callum_snowden haha great nerds think alike 🤓. I want a message when I have free power from my solar panels ☀️
@callum_snowden figuring out how to get the bastard print drivers installed on raspbian/debian headless took me some time so I’m totally writing it up in a blog post or something when I’m done. I’ll keep you posted 😊
