Antidotes

eInk – it's great! Seeing your schedule at a glance – also great!
That's basically what TRMNL, a wall-mounted eInk display, promises: All the information you care about, on a display that needs very little energy and can be read in all lighting conditions.
I completely missed the launch. The first batch is now already sold out (of course), but I'm definitely jumping on the second one. I can really see this working as a family hub of sorts, showing the kids' schedules, the day's weather, and whatever else catches our attention from their long list of integrations.
The downside of many of these systems is that once the provider goes out of business and switches off servers, they become e-waste really fast. TRMNL's commitment to open source and toward thinking about exactly these scenarios gives me hope for its longevity.
Few stores are as delightful to browse as Studio Arhoj. They offer a variety of glassware, ceramic mugs, and little figurines. Everything is really cute and very well made (I own two of their mugs, and they always put a smile on my face when I drink my coffee from them... Ok, this starts reading like an ad, but it's not – I promise! – they're just a delight!). Anyway! For the Easter holidays they have a new offering that I ABSOLUTELY NEED: Happy glass eggs! So cute!
