Looking to deploy my first kvm production host this weekend, and upgrading a bunch of other infrastructure server like DNS via pihole.
I am worried that I don’t have enough pieces in place though. I need to bring down the power consumption in the home, going smaller may be the way to go.
But the other bigger issue is I need family to get up network enough to bring up the house.
Power went out today around 11:30AM , 2 and a half hours before the Seahawk game started. The Anker solix did its Job.
I got my laptop and the hdhomerun plugged in. Frist thing was the fridge, and my phone was able to connect to bluetooth and let me know how much power I had.
I then had my son run an extension to the closet where the HD Homerun was, I was able to plug the power strip in. Then I needed network, I had a switch in there and was able to get it up and connected to the Mifi which I put the old SIM back in from the Netgear Mobile Router.
I was thinking of leaving it in the Netgear but it did not have wifi. Better to just move to the mifi.
I then used the dump switch in the closet to connect the mifi and the hdhomerun. That was good enough for my laptop to connect via wifi and access the mifi network.
The Anker was amazing, it held power for couple of hours. Giving us ample time to get the generator up.
Game started by then, but Anker Power pack held up.
PSE came up with couple announcements
Power actually came back on at 8PM
All the Anker held up, we did run out of propane but we had a second tank.
Every Friday I compile a list of things to do over the weekend. I am looking through some of the things and I feel like I did get stuff done, but visually around the house it does not feel like it.
One of the things I want to do is clean my office, the living room and garage. I don’t think I am going to accomplish that.
One problem this weekend is I did not know an MRI contrast can make you tired. So after my MRI I was beat.
I did do some stuff later in the afternoon, but had to get my steps in.
Finished late. I should just get a good nights sleep and start tomorrow.
Day started off like a normal Friday, going through my morning checklist, backing up stuff talking to people, getting finances straight.
As the afternoon rolled in, I realized it was 3PM day flew by quickly.
I got some steps before heading over to Parkland to get my son. Got there at 6:45 needed to get back quick and get my steps in.
Got most of my steps when I got back and by slightly after 8PM I got my 9750 steps.
Went to Snoqualmie casino NOT to gamble, but with two of our kids for a buffet. We scored two free Buffet and was able to cover the rest with point we have earned.
Wife and I had some slot free play as well, got it to an $80 win, so gas paid, stomachs full, finished my floors and my steps.
We had a bar b que planned today, one interesting thing was getting to the Bar B Que pick up place, met a guy named Bryan that shares a lot of the same techie journey have.
He had pfsense, ubiquity and knew what CentOS is. I overheard him talking to his buddy about filament, while I was researching how to fix my problem with the new P1P I got.
The line at Bar B Que took 90 minutes. I would normally be bored but having some stranger to discuss techie topics made it go by fast.
Speaking of my printer, found out the problem, I dropped it to a the same firmware as my other P1S and things worked as I wanted.
Didn’t crack 330, also lost a lot of time and didn’t finish some To Do’s I wanted to do.
Since I started on zepbound I have yet to crack 330 and it has been nearly 100 days. Also I have only lost 15lbs, it is NOT insignificant, but I am not going to make my goals going this slow.
Before I can continue printing though, I need to reorganize my area. If I were to get serious with a print farm (or hit the next level) I would get a larger format one.
Another thing my by the minions, things that print smaller stuff, that may be next. I need to figure it out with my workflow.
I need to commit some time to cleaning up though. Weekend running out of hours. But I did get a lot done.
Sad that I probably will not crack 330 this month.
