- [Fixing the AppleTV Remote Volume Buttons](https://andrewk.space/2023/09/23/tvos-17-remote-volume-buttons/) - tvOS 17 brought some new features but it also made my volume buttons stop working on my AppleTV remote. I exhausted all of the things I knew how to do to fix this, and then after a quick google search apparently this just requires a remote restart. That process is documented here. tl;dr: Press and
- [](https://andrewk.space/2024/09/24/313/) - Einn meira og búinn All done until Christmas now
- [](https://andrewk.space/2024/09/14/310/) - “Put this whole baby down!” - my 2 or 3yr old daughter yelling during a fit when being removed from anywhere she refused to be removed from.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2024/08/12/306/) - After listening to @atpfm, I found a super old thread relating to cars that do or don’t lock their cables while charging. I am so surprised that any cars don’t lock their charging port by default. I know it’s selectable in some and I believe this list is incorrect as even the old e-golf and
- [](https://andrewk.space/2024/08/12/301/) - At some point I need to file an Apple feedback on how insane it is that the **empty** search bar in Apple Maps offers “copy” as the first pop up action.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2024/08/11/2024-08-iceland-vegan-asian-market-finds/) - Squid makes vegan fish sauce now?
- [Running Tailscale on a Raspberry Pi 4 at Home](https://andrewk.space/2024/08/10/tailscale-docker-rpi-homeassistant-exit-node/) - Running tailscale on my homeassistant RPI4 is kind of nice. Now whenever we go anywhere outside of our country, we can connect to our home exit node and still watch Ponyo on Netflix thanks to Ghibli content being available in Iceland. Running tailscale in a docker container has to be one of the easiest docker-compose.yml
- [](https://andrewk.space/2024/01/22/282/) - The phrase you’d say to someone in Icelandic which would be similar to how someone might use “bon appetit” is “verði þér að góðan” or shortened to “verði að góða”. This is funny to me because it’s basically saying “may it be good to you”. Was the food often bad to you in the early
- [4 Pitfalls to Avoid when Deploying a Python Lambda to AWS in 2024](https://andrewk.space/2024/01/04/4-pitfalls-to-avoid-when-deploying-a-python-lambda-to-aws-in-2024/) - I have a very simple Python service I'd like to run "in the cloud".For nearly all of my personal projects I'm using github actions and Linode. At work, I use AWS for everything though - just like at my last job, and the job before that. The problem with AWS in 2024 is when you
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/12/27/260/) - The snow missed Christmas and it’s already turning to “krap” (slushy snow). It’s finally time to get the dogs some new jackets.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/12/24/258/) - Gleðilegt jól frá Íslandi. Christmas here starts today so this will be interesting. Normally we only would open one or two gifts on the eve but we’re trying to reconcile both worlds in our apartment.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/12/21/forever-cold/) - I've been sick more times in the last year than I have been in my whole life. I feel bad for my daughter who seems like she always has some form of the sniffles or something since attending leikskóli.
- [Grindavík Eruption](https://andrewk.space/2023/12/19/grindavik-eruption/) - The Grindavík eruption finally happened today. Cams here.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/12/17/241/) - If you use letsencrypt, your domain registrar is hover.com, and have noticed letencrypt failing to renew subdomain certs for you - it's not you, it's hover.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/12/16/239/) - We've entered an era where my daughter just repeatedly uses the word "ah-ditz" for a variety of uses, none of which mean anything to us.
- [Christmas Time!](https://andrewk.space/2023/11/20/223/) - How else would I know Christmas is almost here if not for Jólaöl og Appelsín?
- [Alien Balloon](https://andrewk.space/2023/11/02/alien-balloon/) - “I have an alien balloon. When it pops it will be a piece of rubber. That’s what happens to balloons.“ That’s what happens to all of us my love. I love you so much tiny girl. You’re growing up so fast. I hope I can help you to fly and soar and enjoy every second
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/10/21/218/) - Over a year since I initially thought that I applied, my family finally has their required residence permits and IDs in Iceland. My daughter’s photo looks like a hilarious mugshot.
- [FaceTime with tvOS 17 Stuttering](https://andrewk.space/2023/09/23/facetime-with-tvos-17-stuttering/) - I’ve tried restarting everything and using different devices to do the continuity camera and it still stutters like crazy as of tvOS 17.0 on the newest generation of AppleTV 4k. The person on the other end of the call gets relatively clear and smooth video but on the AppleTV the video will stutter like crazy.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/09/23/215/) - I’m so happy iOS 17 is here. The keyboard has felt legitimately better and I’m so happy to have shared iCloud Keychain passwords finally.
- [Vegan Búðin](https://andrewk.space/2023/08/26/vegan-budin/) - Today is the sad last day of Iceland’s only vegan grocery store, Vegan Búðin. When we first came here in 2018 we made sure to visit and spent a silly amount of money on chocolates and various other snacks we ate for our trip. Amazingly, even a few snacks made it home with us. Every
- [Kia Navigation Update Surprises](https://andrewk.space/2023/08/09/kia-nav-update-actually-updates-infotainment-stack/) - I had incorrectly assumed that software updates in Kia vehicles would be just as awful as they've historically been in most other major vehicle manufacturers. With my move to Iceland, I've purchased a couple of electric cars, one being a Kia Soul EV. This was the first car we purchased due to availability and I
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/08/01/199/) - Sometimes my attention issues cause me to procrastinate when I hit a roadblock. So far I’ve found the most use of AI chat bots in helping tell me what to do next when I’m feeling overwhelmed by my own anxiety, stress, and overall attention deficit. Thank you robots for helping me be a slightly more
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/07/25/194/) - Útlendingastofnun, the Icelandic immigration offices sent me a sms 30 minutes before they closed that I could come pick up my residency card. Luckily I work right around the corner. I can finally travel throughout Europe and the U.S. again freely 🙌 for the next year and 5 months 😂 until I have to do
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/07/24/193/) - The wild thing about people in the U.S. going crazy about Tesla’s connector vs CCS is that in Europe it’s all CCS. Our Model Y in Iceland has a standard CCS connector and it works fine. It’s like bikeshedding over USB-C power delivery vs using a proprietary power connector. The open standard works fine but
- [Serbian Graffiti](https://andrewk.space/2023/06/25/serbian-graffiti/) - Palms are sweaty, knees weak, Microcenter ready. (For context, there's a computer store named Microcenter off of a road called "14 Mile Rd" in Michigan not far from where I used to live.)
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/06/25/145/) - Oh lord I'm not a huge fan of being away from Iceland right now. My tiny family is having a rough time and I just found a giant cockroach strutting across the floor of my hotel room in Novi Sad so now I'm sitting here unable to sleep, looking at a photo dump with all
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/06/23/117/) - I dislike Siri so much at this point with these homepod minis that I won’t even ask her easy math questions that I’m too lazy to do simply because my day is usually hard enough already and I don’t need a poorly written assistant making it harder.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/06/07/112/) - It’s weird to see this making the rounds 5 years later because my first response was the same - “ok now do healthcare & higher education in the US”.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/05/13/107/) - In more troubles with my move to Iceland: my residence and work permits are valid until 2025 but they never sent me an updated ID card after my renewal in January. This will make getting back into the country a real blast 😩
- [Cars and Phones](https://andrewk.space/2023/05/08/cars-and-phones/) - It's odd for me to see modern companies foregoing CarPlay and Android Auto integrations, or worse, deciding to remove them entirely from future vehicles. If the goal is to sell more services or control the platform entirely, accounting should be done to realize that residual values of vehicles have historically prevented people from wanting to
- [New coffee roaster!](https://andrewk.space/2023/05/06/new-coffee-roaster/)
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/02/18/94/) - When you can’t escape nice things and yet your mini-me doesn’t give a damn 😂 #Iceland
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/02/18/91/) - This is a typical lunch at the office. I forgot to post this sometime ago, but lunch @ work is discounted to the maximum that’s allowed before it’s counted as income and we mostly eat together so it feels a lot like when I used to work in the office at Autonomic Detroit.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/02/06/86/) - Just another day of tropical storm level winds in Reykjavik. #Iceland
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/02/01/73/) - Iceland is crazy sometimes - I’m pretty sure I just saw a construction worker wearing a Jonas brothers sweatshirt? Idk what’s going on.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/27/71/) - Back at the immigration office again today. Hopefully they’ll hear my plea to expedite the permits for my wife and daughter after the misplacing our applications from last July 🙏 Nice. #iceland
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/26/68/) - It was today that I found out that UTL (Icelandic immigration office) has no record for my wife or daughter’s immigration paperwork even though that was 50% of the reason for my trip back in July of 2022. Fantastic. #iceland
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/26/66/) - Winter nights in Reykjavík hit different than Michigan. Every window in our house is open some amount. Not a lot, but enough to have a rogue wind carrying fresh air surprise you now and again. Enough to remember the outside. #iceland
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/23/63/) - Update on the doctor visit: they ran a blood test to ensure I actually had an infection before prescribing antibiotics which cost 1050kr or approximately $7.37. I’m out of a doctor’s visit for around $11 total.
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/23/61/) - Today is my first trip to the doctors office in Iceland. I’ve never been to a doctor anywhere other than Michigan for my entire adult life. and so far it has cost me the equivalent of $3.52 to see a nurse and an actual doctor as a walk-in.
- [Iceland Week 1 ✅](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/22/iceland-week-1-✅/) - Our first full week living in Iceland has passed. My permits have been extended for another two years and we might finally get a new car in the next month or two… We finally found some cool things to take our daughter to while we wait for her to be properly registered as a resident
- [](https://andrewk.space/2023/01/04/50/) - Finally went all-in on micro.blog and mastodon. Going to try out using my own blog with micro.blog for everything going forward. Really love the activitypub/mastodon support here @manton!
