I like thrift stores, technology, outer space, wine, and spicy food. Eurodance. I dabble in Linux, self hosting, and breaking my homelab. Amateur woodworker and entrepreneur. Corgis run my life.

I spent 2 hours troubleshooting why Unraid would not detect drives on a m.2 PCIe expansion card. I found that the card supports NVMe, I was using SATA cards. Read the manual better folks. 😅 B+M keys.

Upgrade complete! Now to migrate to internal boot and expand the array.
Time to upgrade the @unraid.net box. Going from the 4th gen to a 15th Gen should be insane 😅. Now what to do with the old system?

Halfway into cutting the grass, the mower threw the belt. Nothing like replacing a lawnmower belt during the noonday sun. 🥵

Noo. My @newegg shipment was delayed by UPS.
It always baffles me that it takes longer to go the last mile here in Atlanta, than it does to ship across the entire country. CA -> GA, 3 days. Internal transfers in Atlanta, 4-5 days bouncing back and forth between hubs.

I bought a Ryobi One+ 9" edger today. No because I 'need' it, but because it was 50% off. My driveway is going to be so defined. 😅

Don’t call it age verification. Call it centralised personal data collection. And understand that it serves surveillance, not safety for children.
