So here is 7yr #transformation. 127kg to 77kg. My main drive was to not be a #fat #dad. I did #marathons #obsticlecourses #triathlon and then @pca_official #bodybuilding show! I did this for the best cause, myself!

Recycled this old #ROS1 Turtlebot in to a #ROS2 with a Jetson Nano and it works so well, this robot must be over 10 years old and can still navigate a complex environment, add a cheap Okda #lidar (£15) and off it goes! #ROS for the win!

Want to 3D print a simple, cheap robot that you can control with #ROS2? github.com/burf2000/PiBob

I can't believe the stress and time lost just trying to get @Autoglass to do their actual job! Over a month without a screen. Many calls, many complaints, and nothing!

So last week we spent a few days with the #AppleVisionPro and the #inmoov robot :) fun times youtu.be/S2MOfVlHwOs?si=sou9…

Hello and welcome to another Burf Update. This one is going to be more of a year in review, of what went well, what didn't, and what the future hold (is it orange). Warning, it's a long one! December: RIP Mum Sadly December has not been my month, burf.co/blog/2022/12/24/it-t…

I had hoped that the @HM_Passport could understand simple English grammar, it seems like a place that would be important. Sounds like I am going to have to replace a birth certificate that I know they have, they told me they have but haven't got it?

Hello and welcome to another Burf update! I can't believe it's been over a month since my last post and it's nearly Christmas. I think quite a lot has happened over the last month, but who knows until I list it?Wheelchair #3DPrinting #Arduino #TGB burf.co/blog/2022/11/25/frid…

It's sad when a company you use like @JustEatUK doesn't actually care if your kids go hungry. £5 credit for a total right off of an order of £26! You pay them to do a service, which they failed at!

Hello and welcome to another Burf Update, it's odd doing it on a Saturday night but there is quite a lot to report (if I can remember it all) MathsI have gone back to Khan Academy and have now redone 3rd Grade (lol), burf.co/blog/2022/10/22/satu…

So @HostPapa is trying to royally screw me over so I went back to see where these magical limits are for unlimited hosting! No link to T&C and that tiny green icon is it! Tons of people have the same experience!

Welcome to another Wednesday update, this one is a little light on robotics content due to me spending most of the time organizing and cleaning my robotics areas. Due to the kindness of companies like LEGO, VEX Robotics Meccano, and MakeBlock, who in burf.co/blog/2022/04/07/the-…

Welcome to another Wednesday update, due to Compsoft having a Wellness day (bloody epic if you ask me) I have had the whole day to do stuff..... Gwiz update So the new 100AH deep cycle Hankook DC31 batteries turned up and I would class it as a burf.co/blog/2022/03/30/the-…

So welcome to another Wednesday update, this one is rather special as I have actually managed to publish it on a Wednesday! Robots Everywhere I saw a video online of a Ukrainian kid who was learning robotics and had made a cool robot called Markobot. burf.co/blog/2022/03/02/the-…

Hello and welcome to another Wednesday update on a different day than Wednesday. This afternoon I tried to focus on 1 task, get my Inmoov robotic head talking. Short version, I DID IT! youtube.com/watch?v=WnLL1PBo… As #aiml #Inmoov burf.co/blog/2022/02/17/the-…
