I’ve watched CBS’s #Survivor for 25 years since the first season and feel I’ve was pretty hardened seeing what I thought was pretty much everything but this week’s episode with Eva’s moment with autism in the challenge and everyone’s support around her was hands down the best of the entire […]

Just started playing with #HomeAssistant dashboards. This is a good start, now if only #Ford would allow some proper API access to get basic vehicle stats.

#HomeLab data room is coming along. It's all framed now. Mini-split is mocked. I moved my current networking equipment to the other side of the wall so the room can be finished.

After close to 20 years of using a #Mac as my primary work computer, I'm starting to break away from the #Apple ecosystem a bit by selecting a Dell laptop for my new job rather than a MacBook Pro. After years of frustrations and annoyances, I just need a break. I'm sure I'll have a load of […]

Future #homelab space! Having part of the “attic” space finished to complement the recent solar+battery installation. Aiming for lots of sound proofing thus why the elevated floor.

If your argument for everything can be summed up as “consumer freedom”, you’re a giant asshole. https://arstechnica.com/cars/2025/03/the-epa-is-scrapping-fuel-economy-regs-claiming-it-will-bring-back-us-jobs/

I'm beside myself that anyone can square "government waste = bad" with "government crypto = good". Grift the whole nation. Amazing strategy for greatness.

This is a periodic reminder to all infosec professionals that the U.S. Government is compromised & now aligned with nation state adversaries. You should cease & desist all threat intel sharing with them, divest from Infragard, and consider forming new information sharing trust circles outside […]

Son’s #Nintendo Alarmo dead after only two months. sigh Their repair request process is pretty awful too that includes enclosing a note to describe what is wrong. Apparently web forms and databases are too high tech. “Doesn’t turn on” should be pretty obvious at least I hope.
