Sore Feet On Bike

Posted on June 13, 2025 by larry

Tried getting a workout on the bike today, I only could do 15 minutes. My right foot arch started to ache. I did switch to the treadmill for an entire 30 minutes, so I got more calories than the usual workout.

Local repos do make things faster, but more importantly I can lock in the repo for a certain revision to make my builds consistent.

Worried about tomorrow, first off there is going to be some anti-ice rally about a 2 mile drive away. It physically will be about a mile away so we may hear it.

To top it off I-405 N is blocked off. Gonna be a painful weekend here.

Testing R10 builds

Posted on June 12, 2025 by larry

I admit I am getting ahead of myself, but I am testing out some initial Rocky 10 builds.

Couple things I noticed

  • sendmail gone
  • nscd gone
  • Nagios (and NRPE agent) gone
  • mlocate gone

Still way to early and there is a lot of testing to be done. With that said, I am going to pivot to Rocky 9.6 over the weekend.

Got my steps easily done today.

Rocky 10 Out

Posted on June 11, 2025 by larry

Moving stuff around on my network to support Rocky 10, so far it is clocking in at 400GB. WOW.

Add to that some third party repos I want to support, and it was clear I needed more hard drive space.

Ordered another 20TB of RAW space, should be here next week.

Hit the gym today, starting to push, and sweat a little. Need to push harder and sweat a lot.

Body Hurts After 10k steps

Posted on June 10, 2025 by larry

So sore today, just did the fitbit goals today of 10k steps and 10 floors.

I thought I was gonna be OK, I got through 6500 steps and was feeling good.

Then I went to do an errand, and got home at 8000 steps, not much more eh. Boy that last 2k was hard. Maybe I was just tired and it all caught up to me.

All I can say is that since I started this Zepbound journey 2 weeks ago I lost only 5lbs.

That is not much, consider this, this morning I weighed in at 346.6, the walk had me lost over 1.5 lbs.

Granted could be water, but I thought I would at least crack 345 today. Oh so close though, maybe tomorrow.

Giving Up On Roboform

Posted on June 9, 2025 by larry

I am about to export it to a vault and call it good. Moving on to KeePass which I got working in Windows, Linux (via Wine), android and iphone.

Speaking of mobile phone, went to gym and for got mine, but I pushed through. Did the elliptical for 30 min + 5 min cool down, I burned over 300 calories and went over 2 miles.

I started with an incline of 10 and a speed of 2, but I couldn’t hold it. Dropped to 2/2 halfway through.

Couple good things happened, I did sweat, my hands didn’t become swollen, and I finished with a decent weight.

Incomplete Weekend

Posted on June 8, 2025 by larry

I did get a tremendous amount to this weekend, but unfortunately need some core things.

I wanted to establish a schedule and plan for the next few weeks.

For one thing it was too hot. Kind of just lounged around when we were done with errands.

I did get the offline repo done. Poorly documented though.

Eventful Day

Posted on June 7, 2025 by larry

A lot happened today, also got a lot done in contrast to yesterday. The first thing was an early wake up call to watch my daughter participate in the swim portion of a triathalon relay.

I got a bunch of steps there. Definitely some XC vibes, want to see if I can do it next year.

Went home rested a bit then did some cleaning, got the air condition out, recall yesterday my management server was crashing, looks to be heat related.

Also assembled some fans in addition to getting the AC up.

Living room was cleaned up, stuff put away and all looks good.

Worked on getting an internal local repo set up.

One thing a discovered was that R9.6 is not compatible with ZFS for Linux.

To top it all of, got my shots, steps and saw the sun.

Glad Had Day Off

Posted on June 6, 2025 by larry

We went out late last night and came home about 4AM. So was a brutal lazy day.

Woke up at about 8:30 and did my finance Friday and some other things, but was so sleepy.

Woke up at 6:15PM late for my workout. But I did get out there.

Gonna be weird sleep tonight.

Nice Busy Weekend Ahead

Posted on June 5, 2025 by larry

Predicting it will be a nice weekend

Couple things to do, but I think overall will be enjoyable.

Need to do some goal setting

There was a problem with my main management server though, crashed couple times.

Based on blinking red lights it may be a hardware error.

Could be heat, bad RAM, but I have spare gear so not too worried.

I should upgrade. But don’t want to waste too much time on it.

Did my fitbit goals, kind of nice.

Rocky Linux 9.6

Posted on June 4, 2025 by larry

Found out it was out today, I downloaded the ISO and upgraded a few of my machines.

Currently syncing the full repo.

I did test my kickstart and UEFI Secureboot worked as well.

Gonna be in this weird phase when some machines are at 9.5 and others at 9.6.

Stuff like my nearstore running ZFS will have to sit till the new packages come out on the zfs.repo

Also of net RHEL 10 is out.

Hit the gym today, pushing a little harder.
