We've got a Renault Zoe that came with a dumb charger. Now that 3 years are up, Renault wants us to subscribe to their service to be able to remote control the charging. We want to charge overnight when #Octopus are cheaper.
What's a geek to do? #ESP8266 and #homeassistant all the things!
Inside the charger there is a useful connector where I can tap off 12v and GND. A simple relay board get inserted on the PP line behind the charge plug.

If you've been following me for a while, you know my admiration for cephalopods (octopuses and squids). 🐙

These eight-limbed beings possess remarkable intelligence.
Since cephalopods have advanced cognitive abilities & can sense pain, the National Institutes of Health has proposed new guidelines for their research.

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-02887-w

The first step to help these remarkable creatures is to stop eating them. And stop #octopus farming. Please share and sign 👇

New #Blog: Shaving the Morning Peaks

Earlier in the week I configured our #solar #battery to take a small charge from the grid in the mornings

The idea was to try and shave the morning pricing peak. It's not gone particularly well, so I figured I'd do a short post looking at it.

As an additional bonus, I also shot myself in the foot with today's #Octopus #Powerup

Time for more cephalopods! This time around, we have Wunderpus photogenicus (yes, this is really the scientific name). The first one we saw was in maybe 15 feet of water and our guide found it before we had all even descended. It didn't seem too bothered as photographers gathered around and snapped away. Philippines diving is epic!

Seen in New Jersey. #random #octopus #ThickTrunkTuesday

In the middle of a forest near the highest point in New Jersey, US, a large purple and blue fabric octopus perched in the fork of two broken stems of a multi stemmed tree. For no reason we could discern. The large eyes of the octopus give it a startled expression, which seems appropriate for a forest cephalopod.

We're finally slowly catching up with our photos!

Featuring: a mediterranean moray eel looking curiously out of its little hole, a spiny lobster also looking out of its hole with a nice orange sponge at the ceiling, an octopus hiding in its hole and carefully peeking out of it, and another octopus that is walking towards its hole for hiding, in the foreground a two-banded seabream and a painted comber looking towards the octopus.

A photo of a spiny lobster (palinurus elephas) looking out of its hole. The whole head with its dark purple-spotted pattern and the eyes are visible, and the white-red-striped antennae are poking out of the hole.

Above the entrance of the hole there is a big orange sponge, and various others all over the rocks.

4) Octopuses are usually solitary and incubate their eggs for at least 5 years, sometimes up to 13 (!)

So it’s exciting that scientists have found “the largest aggregate of octopuses known anywhere in the world, deep-sea or not”, where octopuses are hatching their eggs in less than 2 years 🐙

Posado en una zona descubierta de una piedra con bastantes algas verdes desde donde me sigue observando adaptando una postura de ventosa, en la que su parte superior son los ojos saltones... las patas bien pegadas a la piedra excepto una por detras, y la cabeza tumbada y escondida para no sobresalir en exceso... está bien vigilar pero sin llamar la atención.

El color ha cambiado mucho, ahora tiene colores grises y blancos que hacen que se asemeje al fondo arenoso, excepto la zona de sus ojos saltones, la cual está casi negra. Sus ojos se ven claramente por lo que sobresalen, y tambien pueden verse sus sifones a ambos lados, prestos a dar empuje cuando sea necesario. No se distinguen detalles en sus patas, son un todo, como una ventosa, con las mancha de colores ya mencionadas blancas y grises.

Despues de plantarme cara mostrando su tamaño durante unos segundos decide huir, elegante como sólo un pulpo sabe hacer, impulsado por sus sifones y estirando de manera máxima sus patas, adoptando forma de huso, la cual es óptima para el desplazamiento.

El pulpo en este momento mantiene el color gris verdoso, pero ahora la cabeza tiene un color muy claro próximo al blanco, que hace resaltar más aún sus ojos saltones. En algunas de sus patas, dependiendo de su posición, se pueden ver en el envés las ventosas y en el anverso de cada pata se observan numerosos óvalos más claros, que le otorgan una gran belleza.
La cabeza, bomba impulsora, y con ojos atentos, avanza con una forma bastante hidrodinámica. A un lado de su cabeza asoma uno de sus dos sifones impulsores.
El suelo es de arena gris algo oscura, y hay algunas rocas claras de tamaño mediano, que están llenas de algas verdes y pequeñas algas marrones.

Foto de un pulpo que hice salir de su madriguera. En cuanto me acerqué a él se puso en esta postura de plantarme cara mostrando su tamaño. Adopta esta postura en la que maximiza su tamaño dando forma con sus patas a una gran falda tras su cabeza. Aún asi las patas quedan curvadas hacia atrás, protegiendo la punta de sus extremidades de un ataque. Para dar forma a esta falda no sólo usa la postura de sus patas, sino que de cada pata extiende su velo, de tal manera que con cada pata y su velo obtiene esa forma de falda.
El pulpo en este momento tiene un color gris verdoso, bastante más oscuro por la zona de sus saltones ojos. En algunas de sus patas, dependiendo de su posición, se pueden ver las ventosas -en Malaga las llamamos botones- y en el velo de cada pata se observan numerosos círculos más claros, que le otorgan una gran belleza.
La cabeza está protegida tras "la falda", un poco echada hacia atrás, pero con sus ojos bien atentos. A un lado de su cabeza asoma uno de sus dos sifones impulsores.
El suelo es de arena gris algo oscura, y hay bastantes cáscaras de mejillones esparcidas en él.

Video de un pulpo que al principio adopta la postura de parecer amenazante: hincha su cabeza y pone sus patas para ocupar mucho espacio, como un vestido de esos inflados, en definitiva para aparentar más tamaño y parecer  una amenaza. Despues huye grácilmente, como sólo los pulpos saben hacer, se empujan a propulsion con sus sifones y ponen las patas en forma de cuña, muy hidrodinámicos. En su huída pasa por debajo de unas algas verdes como la lechuga, y acaba posándose en una pequeña roca desde la que mira dubitativo sintiéndose amenazado sin saber qué hacer.
Durante sus evoluciones se aprecian ciertos cambios de color .

They also sport three hearts, and blue blood, and have been around since well before the dinosaurs.

Blue Ring Octopus are famous for their venomous bite and their vibrant color. Despite their large personalities, they are small in stature. The fourth image below shows the octopus next to a regular-sized marble. It was a delight to watch this species flash its colors, walk around the sea floor, and even interact with a nearby fish.

A giant octopus struts through a desert landscape with a limo glass with an umbrella and dark sunglasses on his forehead, with a few patches of blue water still visible. Starfish and life rings hang from him. An anchor and stranded ships in the distance lie around on the ground. Perched on his back is a cheerful seagull wearing a red wool cap.

I saw some of your incredibly fun entries for the wonderfully #SillyCuratorPrompts #Ostropus . So I decided to jump on the bandwagon. Here is mine, the octopus is based on a #WonderpusPhotogenicus (yes, its actual name!). Ostropus stalks the mudflats in search of shells and crabs and sticks its head into the mud to dig them out with its tentacles. This was really fun and I discovered an incredibly powerful workflow as well!

So. The two-spot octopus can recode the RNA in their brains over the course of less than a day in order to adapt their functionality to rapid swings in water temperature.

More #wildlife on the trail!
What washes up, a couple of birds, and something that looks too much like a rattlesnake on Rattlesnake Ridge.

Trying to figure out what hashtags are needed is always too much. #DangerNoodle yeah.

Octopus in a tide pool. It washed up and suckers huge and small are visible, warped a little bit the ripples on the top of the water.
Nearly dry cormorant looks back to check out the photographer. It is a black bird with black webbed feet on a black rock. A waves washes this way in the distance.
Killdeer. Brown and white bird with striping on its head looks back between testing out spots in the sand to sit. The bird is currently standing in the dark sand surrounded by lighter rocks and tufts of green.
Something that looks all too much like a rattlesnake even with a skinny tail showing. Gopher snake curled up on Rattlesnake Ridge, slightly hidden by long grass.

Octopus Batik painting features a friendly looking octopod in apparent conversation with a fellow ocean dwelling fish. Blue underwater waves contrast nicely with the purple octopus, red fish and green sea grass. Lively, full of movement and colorful, this cheery image is perfect for your beach house or sea themed children's room.

Making art can be a mess sometimes…
I've been continuing on my #Snailriders #boardgame and I want to make finalized art for the creature encounter cards. I'm working on "Swamp Octopus" who crawls onto the cargo your Snail's transporting, blocking your access to it. This is a process video of making just the rough sketch before painting. It was a real struggle to get the composition and pose right. I had to make many iterations before landing on a final sketch.

Fediverse, I would like you to introduce you to Ocho, the latest addition to my plushie family.

I don't think Ocho was very happy having their photo taken. They look pretty pissed off...

In any case, Ocho joins Lavender the Narwhal, Callie the Giant Squid, Ike the Blåhaj, Chompy the Blåhaj (Chompy is also a Blåhaj, but not
a Blåhaj) and Tiny the Common Octopus.

And an honorary mention to Gork the Orca, who technically belongs to my kiddo

Ocho, a plushie blue ringed octopus. They are golden in colour, with blue rings scattered all over their body. One partially lidded eye is visible, making Ocho look mildly pissed off

Watercolor octopus. Have you ever watched the Netflix movie "My Octopus Teacher?" If not, I strongly encourage you to do so. Such a beautiful portrait of man and octopus becoming friends. I'll warn you though, you may cry at the end.

most of my #InverteFest fun I had with Octopoi though! Such endless variety of forms, so much to learn from drawing them :)

(These were days 81-84 of my 100 days of drawing animals.)

3) A 5 minute video of a lovely, huge Cirroteuthid octopus spotted at the Southwest Baker Island in the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument 🐙

Seen at a depth of 1,600 meters (5,250 feet), measuring 1.3 m (4.2 ft) long. (‘Deep ocean’ is the depth at which light begins to dwindle, typically around 200 meters (656 feet))

The embarrassing thing about the fifth captain of the cursed vessel is no one on the crew is sure whether he'd always been an octopus, only that it became more obvious over time.

"Best Cap'n I e'er had," one sailor confided. "'m just glad 'e trusts us more now."
