Home Lab

Adding solar-powered repeater and handheld nodes to Green Bay's existing Meshtastic mesh — an open-source, off-grid LoRa network — plus a small bot that answers DM queries with live pollinator and hazard data.

Replaced Google Home with a self-hosted Home Assistant instance on a salvaged Raspberry Pi 3B. Local control, no cloud, no data leaving the house.

Migrated personal files, photos, and media off Google Drive, iCloud, Facebook, and OneDrive onto a self-hosted Nextcloud server running on a Raspberry Pi 5.
