@nadnerB that's amazing

Also a new website that we built. This is built on Laravel and already getting some attention...

Anyone interested, we built a PixelFed (Instagram competitor, open source) server on Ubuntu 23.04 that is up and running in production now. Feel free to make accounts and play around. It just went up today so no one is there yet. But interesting to see PixelFed in action.

About to head out to a concert.

I spent the last week cutting down/apart a tree that broke in half due to wind last week.

Hope it didn’t hit anything or anything important if it did. We’ve had quite a bit of systems come through here also..

Storm came through about 2:30-3:00am and was very active in lightning…

luckily not. the top half of the tree broke, but not completely - fell over slightly into the street. The break was about 20 feet up - made cutting it down a bit challenging - luckily my latter was talk enough.

haul away, etc was so expensive - it was worth it to buy a slightly used chipper shredder and just deal with it myself. I now have a small pile of logs to give away as firewood.

I need to rent a chipper to deal with my ever-growing pile of limbs and other small debris. Home depot rents them here for $100/day. Now I just need some motivation to do it in the heat...

Here you just use a rake and a match, problem solved.

That is very seasonal here. Burn season starts in October or so.

That's the handy thing about living without seasons, lol.

Just got a parrot today. It's a rescue, very old and needed a new home very quickly. So now we have a parrot.

That's one thing that I really miss, but there's no reasonable way to fly up for that and use my limited "US days"

We just got shaken around a bit. A 6.6 magnitude earthquake a few minutes ago.

@travisdh1 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Kicked off the upgrade to TacticalRMM 0.16, this update is taking a while!

We did that the other day, too. Worked fine for us.

Maybe you'll return to Managua, you could go unnoticed in such a place

Yeah, yo mamma would go unnoticed there.

Poking around Proxmox for the first time

We've got scores of them in production. REally happy with it.

About to go to Managua with the kids for a day out and about just for fun.

Enjoying a slow day and hoping that tomorrow is truly a holiday.

Just checking back here.

Hey hey, how's it going?

Checking out this 6.5 hour show. It seems good. Uses VS Code too.

Does anyone have good resources for web design? Good books or YouTube or websites? I'm talking actual skilled design, not "I bought a template for WordPress and changed teh colors using a GUI". I want to get people up to speed on hand coding HTML and CSS, understanding things like Bootstrap and so forth.

@AdamF What hasn't made you happy with Unifi? That's what I'd be deploying.

@Oksana Seems weird choices. What does either do better than ProxMox or other totally free and open choices? They both come with loads of risk and support issues. How do they justify the cost or risk when every aspect of them is worse than the baseline?
