This is a windmill made by my grandfather from some scrap wood. He says the vibrations scare the moles out of the allotment. Looks like it's working, there were no mole hills in sight.

There are now microSD cards able to store more data than this whole "motorized tower".

I'm getting ready for my future house. By that I mean that I bought a second-hand, totally overkill, rack mountable, 11 port router from Mikrotik, it's the RB3011UiAS-RM, and it's massive

Now the only question is: Will I be able to configure it? 😂 […]

New blog post!

In which I talk in detail how I deployed Nextcloud locally in my homelab using LXD and NextcloudPi.

I go through the whole process of setting up LXD, importing the NCP image, installing, configuring, and scheduling backups for my own personal […]

[weird cuisine, meat]

Random fact about Polish cuisine:

There is a dish called "zimne nóżki" (little cold legs). It's made from meat taken from pig's legs, boiled for a long time with vegetables like carrot or green peas. The mixture is the poured into molds […]

I had an issue with KDE Dolphin that it was not showing thumbnails of photos on an NFS share. Turns out it's a matter of changing one setting.

Sharing this in case someone has the same problem :)

Update: it's not DNS. There is no domain name resolution when one is using IP addresses :)

Here's some statistics from curl:

Everything before the actual start of transferring data is almost instant. And it happens for all of my LXC containers.

Halp?

Hey networking/LXC specialists.

I have NextCloudPi running as an LXC container.

To access it, I set up routing on my Mikrotik router (screenshot).

The problem is that accessing NCP this way is very slow, I need to wait 5-10 seconds for the page to load.

My #boinc signature badge is working again. I had to get a new cross-project id after I changed my email in all the BOINC projects I participate in.

And second question: I have this PCIe wireless network card and I'm wondering if I could put an SSD in that slot?

Took my #meshtastic node to the Big City to catch some stations, but I did not realize the battery was dead, so I am charging it using an electric bus

A reader of my blog took the *very not smart* idea to create a ZFS NAS from a Raspberry Pi Zero, and turned it up a notch. I am horrified and fascinated <3
