This assumes that you have a working router as per my older post . This can work behind a nat (though I ended up DMZing this router) in some circumstances. This distils grawity’s excellent post on superuser – in the context of this setup (which has a few quirks), and some
This follows on from my last post, and is basically a distillation of this excellent post on Super User. These steps will work with Starhub Fibre ipv6 or any other provider who does IPv6 PD I found I *didn’t* need to set up a few things the way he
I’ve made a few choices that fit around my own preferences (firewalld) and problems I faced (bridgeutils and the classic network interfaces over bridging) This is as much a cookbook as a guide Picking hardware is easy. I got a system that was overkill – but basically there’s a
While it “works” – there’s various minor issues, and iterations of my bias lighting setup. More brightness is always nice, and I’d like to combine the ability to power it off my PC, with a few additional features. I’d like to turn it off. I went with a
I’ll entirely admit this is *partially* inspired by this MSE post. And a certain desire to move off purely “This is a neat thing that I did” that this blog has been (even if I need to do an updated ttrss install guide). And well, I’m not a
Writing init scripts is a pain in the rear. Upstart was better but badly documented. And for all the fruit thrown at it, systemd isn’t that bad when it comes to the end user experience. I’ve been using supervisord to run the update daemon for ttrss. I’ve
System level backups are pretty much something everyone *needs* to do. While windows has had a bit of a mixed history on this (The current system imaging tool on windows 10 is from windows 7), there’s excellent third party tools to do this. I’m not really going to
Writing this up cause someone was asking me about it, and its one of those things that I’m actually pretty proud of. Its however a slightly complicated setup, involving many pieces of hardware and software working together. I’ll be starting with what I expect out of my backup
Until recently, I had a boring, run of the mill 1600×900 display. It worked well enough, it was a decent gaming monitor, and well, I didn’t really see anything that made me go wow. I figured I’d go for one of the korean displays Jeff Atwood seemed
While I’ve been happy with my previous hosting (I was using a 256mb VPS on buyvm with offloaded sql), I’ve also been running a few other services for my own use on a VM a friend let me use on his dedi. I was holding out for something
This blog was offline for a few weeks I had my account suspended, my blog down, and a entirely warrented, and slightly annoyed email from my VPS host threatening to shut down my service if this happened again…. cause I was too lazy to set key based authentication. I always
Yeah, this is primarily for my own reference in case I need to rebuild but it might be useful for someone else. The night theme in ttrss is actually *meant* for night time use, and the developer has *gradually* added support for images to be monochrome. I use it all
