I started collecting examples of un-shttification after the third "the cloud shut down, here's how I got my device back" post on X in a week and I looked at ordering a photo frame from amazon to hack together a family dashboard.

A simple, no commerce site, entries list the device, what works (and what doesn't) and the source, writeups (if any) and link to git.

So far there are 63 submissions, from Nest thermostats to a June oven.

Submissions welcome, and corrections even more so.

Hi from another Canadian. Here in Ontario it is illegal to ask employees to perform any work-related tasks while on holiday and I am 99.9% sure the same is true in Quebec (we have an office in Montreal). Whether you wish to enforce that is up to you. We actually ask people to unplug and recharge in my company - it makes for better outcomes long term.

I stopped drinking alcohol three years ago because, as I was getting older, it wasn't working for me anymore. Two or three beers and I would feel it the next day. The drink was born out of the desire to create an alternative to alcoholic drinks. Also, there is a big movement away from alcohol right now, with people looking for alternatives and I was hoping to tap into this. But, looking at the site with a fresh eye, I think you're making a good point. Perhaps it comes across as a little judgy.

Thanks for pointing this out, I'll do some thinking.

That’s really interesting. We do something similar for clients that don’t have access to the budget needed to hire the agency proper. If I may make one comment, I thought there were too many colour choices. I work with designers everyday and even I got confused.

I started up a botanical brewery. We make non alcoholic drinks from medicinal mushrooms and we’re about three weeks away from launching our chaga based drink. We were supposed to launch in March, but COVID threw a spanner into the works. You can check it here: https://borealbrewing.ca

Putting out a real product has been an insane amount of work, from getting the brand designed to finding somebody to actually help with production, but it’s been a fantastic learning experience. I’m really hoping that we’ll get the product out with no further delays, as it’s full of, amongst other good things, antioxidants which are great immune boosters.

I’ve launched a Botanical Brewery, making non alcoholic tonics from medicinal mushrooms. Right now, we are 3 weeks away from launching our chaga drink. We were supposed to launch weeks ago, but COVID threw a spanner in the works. It’s my first time putting out a real product and the amount of work involved is huge - but it’s also a ton of fun.
