Last week, I did a read through of the Queens Bus Redesign Proposal. Only 515 pages. It looks like there are some improvements, but still some issues. Now I’m watching YouTube commentators complain about how bad it is. These people didn’t clearly read closely before they recorded their takes.
Tomorrow is World Backup Day, so I’m embarking on redoing my network attached storage and associated backup process. The long part is waiting and testing new hard drives. I have to, make another backup of the data locally, remove all the drives from the NAS, install the new SSD OS drive, and the bigger data drives, do a complete self test(which for a 10TB drive is about 16 hours). Then restore from the backup…test…if the restoration doesn’t work, remove the new drives and bring back the old 3TB drives and start all over again…I’ll be done by…sometime in April.
Been hanging around my grandparent’s apartment, where I’m visiting, setting up the infrastructure I had to move out of my parent’s apartment due renovation. Added some new tricks. Running a wireguard gateway off a travel router, and pumping my DVR back at home through it so I can watch TV. Relocated the weather station, offline since May as well, need to get the sensors back online as well.
Going through my list of itineraries over the last decade to add limited records of where I’ve been to my site. I think I also have paper tickets and old boarding passes as well somewhere I can merge in. Right now, these are just simple posts with the location and the time keyed to the departure time of the flight.
Just used a $25 travel router flashed with OpenWRT to create a permanent Wireguard gateway from my grandparent’s old apartment to my apartment so I can access my server. Usually I use site-to-site between routers, but their building contract doesn’t allow for using your own router.
