Welcome to Impressto: The Homelab

Photo of the Week: Ottawa River, Canada — September 2025

Curious minds are welcome here. I’m working on all kinds of projects—some deliberately obscure, others downright practical. Here’s what’s in progress:

  • Smart Home Automation — like ventilation controls and backup power using solar and wind.
  • Full-stack Remote Monitoring — keeping tabs on water, electricity, temperature, humidity, and even cameras.
  • Micro Web Servers — smaller, sleeker, more badass.
  • Microcontroller Mashups — anything with ESP32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi—you name it.
  • Polyglot Coding — C, C++, Bash, Python, JavaScript, PHP... and maybe more tomorrow.
  • Technical Climbing — always with solid gear and a healthy dose of caution.
  • Old-Boat Overhauls — repairs that begin as tasks and end up feeling like love affairs.

(Notice something missing? Yep—crytpo. Not by mistake.)
