The Big Move™ has been completed!!!
After some running around and panicking, the router/firewall powering Sineware services has been migrated from a TP-Link Omada ER605 running OpenWRT to an Intel N100 Router Mini PC running OPNsense.

Wow (unsurprisingly) using Component video and a nice Upscaler (In this case a GBS Control custom design from RetroScaler) makes a HUGE difference with the PS2 compared to composite and a generic AV2HDMI lol

Picked up this Panasonic CF-RZ6 from a store in Akihabara, it’s pretty neat! It’s a 10” convertible with full sized HDMI, VGA, and Ethernet (!!!). Feels great physically too, gonna be a great laptop when I need to quickly run to my servers physically to do maintenance and such.

You don’t have to be a “cyclist” to support safe bike infrastructure in your city. You don’t have to ride bikes at all. You just have to understand the FACT that bike infrastructure makes getting around easier & safer for EVERYONE, saves us all public money, & makes cities generally more successful.
