  • You’re not alone - Disney Star Wars has being either absolutely fantastic (Rogue One, etc.) or absolutely trash (789, etc.). Rogue One had good characters with interesting motivations and growth. Jyn had to come to terms with her fathers role in the empire and make choices on how to tackle unclear situations.

    The new trilogy featured Rey, who… never changed or grew or really faced any meaningful challenge? She was just… always stronger/better because she just was. It felt more like playing a video game where your character fights increasingly big bad guys but never actually changes skills or unlocks new stuff.

    And c’mon… “somehow Palpatine has returned” is the laziest piece of shit you can think of. That’s some 5th grade fiction writing assignment shit.


  • Nifty! I built something similar for my university graduation project. Did a PCB, ESP8266 based as well. Temperature, humidity, sound, vibration, airborne particulate sensor, and some other stuff.

    Wrapped a server up in docker for receiving the data, basic dashboard in JS for minor reactivity in components. Never ended up actually doing it cause I didn’t have a consistent host, but maybe I should spin it up again now that I have a home server.

    Cool project, looks neat! Anything you were caught off guard by when doing this?
