For some while now I had the caching capabilities with apt-cacher-ng disabled because of problems with HTTPS. Finally I found some time to get it working.

For some time I have been playing with different sensors on the Raspbarry Pi. While it is still fun (and gives me the playground for different programming tasks), I now felt it was time to see some output not only on my remote screen, but directly on the breadboard. So, I ordered a 1.8 inch display with the famous SPI ST7735 chip controller.

This post will be short but hopefully be of help to you anyway!

I am a developer by profession. And like most developers, I am lazy. So yes, I get paid for doing less! More precisely it is not about doing more or less but about keeping things simple. And that’s actually harder than one can imagine.

A couple days ago I ordered my first sensor for measuring temperature. I thought this could be a good start to monitor my little data center I neatly installed in a cupboard. Although I have installed an external fan so the risk of heat accumulation is quite low, the fan could fail and then heat would build up.
