DVR Didn’t Record Superbowl

Posted on February 12, 2024 by larry

Wow what a fail on my part, mental note, make sure DVR is set to record stuff you want to watch.

Anyway, I found someone with a copy and was able to watch the coin toss.

Superbowl 58

Posted on February 11, 2024 by larry

Last year I had no skin in the game, this year I was not 49ers.

It was a great game, I wasn’t going to watch, but saw on social media that my old coach was TV. Lahainaluna was honorary co captains and participated in the coin toss. Incredible tribute.

Then the game started, I admit I did not watch till halftime, I wish I watched the whole game.

Looks like the 49ers had it, but then game went into overtime. Interesting new rules in overtime. Because OT was gonna exceed 15 minutes. 49ers scored a field goal off of an exhausted chiefs. But Chiefs came back.

Interesting, I got at least 5000 steps while watching the game, I was going to go the airport and walk.

After the game I had about 3000 steps left, as I post I have 10770 steps but need two more floors.

I did spend part of the day configuring home assistant in the lab.

Last Day of Swim

Posted on February 10, 2024 by larry

My son swam his last meet swim. This is my last time seeing him swim in High School competition. Kind of sad.

He did well, his team did PR. Nice end of the season/career gift.

I got my mobile home server reconnected. Going to work on that tomorrow. Not watching Superb Owl.

Sunset Walk

Posted on February 9, 2024 by larry

Sunset is starting to get later and I like it

Had an enjoyable walk.

On a techie note, I tested out my firewall and Gig connections all around. The only thing positive was that it is faster than 1G

Strange Day

Posted on February 8, 2024 by larry

Not a bad day, but a weird one.

On my walk today at work a girl about 20 something collapsed in front of me.

I immediately called 911 and she looked to be ok. But I was the first one to see her, the closest to her, and first on the 911 call.

Anyway, like to think I truly helped someone today.

Still Owe Sleep

Posted on February 7, 2024 by larry

Maybe it is because I did not get a long deep sleep, or I been working out too hard, but I been kind of exhausted today.

I took a badly needed nap and feel better. I am going to see if I can get a long night’s sleep to see if I am charged for work tomorrow.

Schedule Normalizing

Posted on February 6, 2024 by larry

That was quick, I feel like my schedule is moving back to normal.

Tonight I think I will still sleep early. But happy to know my sleep is normal again.

Not going to touch the network tonight, going to document tomorrow.

Got steps in early too, so not up late trying to finish.

Don’t Touch The Mikrotik

Posted on February 5, 2024 by larry

I have no idea why Mikrotik does not have an easy way to flash back to factory. Just warning that when in Switch OS, mind your VLANs, leave the management port as is.

So they will all be reserved with dumb settings so we can connect a laptop to them.

Went to bed really late, trying to make up some time now. I got my steps done late but will be going to bed early.

Leaving not much time left. If I get a good sleep, things should be back to normal tomorrow.

Starting To Hate Mikrotik

Posted on February 4, 2024 by larry

Not sure what happened, but I can’t even boot to recovery mode.

I am watching wireshark and it keeps booting but not getting. So desperate I resorted to reddit.

Day started off good, got my CRV serviced, full tank of gas, and a haircut.

A tantrum by my son and this mikrotik pain ruined my day.

I am still 5000 steps and 6 floors short. Will post if it does not work.

Mercer Island Walk

Posted on February 3, 2024 by larry

Walked around the area my son was have League Swim meet.

It was nice

Picture doesn’t look great, but it is nice walk, I think if it was dark you would feel safe there.

Pretty amazing they have toys lying around like this. If was Renton I think they would be gone.
