My electricity meter now has its own little website

Next to my electricity meter in the basement, I set up an old linux server that reads the status of the meter via a D0 IR connector to USB.

I let Claude write a standalone python script that reads the consumption values and serves and stores them them via a web page. Now on sunny days, I can just set the air condition to as high as electricity is for free.
