  Mastodon is dead!

  We live in sad times if an 11 year old computer with free software outperforms modern expensive and “professional” gateway devices. Both on speed and features… But, here we are! Hello pfSense, it’s been a while! #networking #diy #pfsense #router

  Well, I made it 3 days without looking at Mastodon. Missed nothing.

  Well, 6 hours of hair tearing later and i have 4 tagged vlans and a host network working. With network isolation and, well, a way too complex network for what I need! But oh so satisfying to finally have it working!! 😎 #networking #network #pfsense #lan #vlan #wifi

  Why is google/Motorola masquerading major android updates as simple security updates? Why can’t anything ever be clear and honest these days? #google #motorola #android #update #newphone

  Picked up my new motorcycle today! In true Mexico fashion they didn't prepare anything so while I drove to the license plate registration the thing overheated because it had no coolant. When I got my license plate it wouldn't start because the sparkplug wire came loose. And that took me 3 hours to figure out and fix. On the way to 'my' mechanic to get it all checked out I realized I have no brakes. But the first 20km on it sure were an experience. #motorcycle...

  While doing some work on my new motorcycle i found this… An active gps tracker with a sim card on a magnet under the cargo bed. Smashed it to bits of-course, but what the fuck!? #motorcycle #motorbike #gps #tracker #vento

  Writing bash/shell without code highlighting is such a chore... 500+ lines of grey boredom. Geez. But, I almost have an universal video transcoder now 🤣 #shell #linux #scripting

  What's a good floorplan tool for macOS? Not something dumb like Sweet Home 3d or Live Home. Something that actually works and doesn't cost an arm and a leg... EVerything I try either costs a fortune, has unintuitive shitty UI or doesn't work at all. All I want is an easy way to make a floorplan with walls, windows and doors really. A good way to deal with the measurements of those. It shouldn't be an uphill battle to use, or even find, such software! #macos #f...

  I choose the white motorcycle. Ordered it a few days ago, and it should be ready for pick-up in about 2 weeks. #motorcycle #motorbike

  You can’t make this shit up! Literally taped a wall plug into some exposed wires to hook up a wall mounted fan. #mexico #electric #renovating

  And as usual, Nextcloud can't do something logically or normal, or at all really. Nothing is compatible with the apps around it. Nothing integrates or works as expected. How the hell do I share contacts between users (android/mac...) #nextcloud #management #stupid #contacts #apps #apple #android #mac #sync #carddav

  Let’s do some more linux today! #linux #ubuntu #server

  I did some #linux today! Server now kinda works. I also did #cgi today and that also now works. And I’m doing #bash now to make a video conversion thing with #ffmpeg. 😬

  Hey Gemini you big dummy! Thanks for the initial code I guess, but I rewrote it and now my bash script is only 327 lines instead of 382, and it does more and more efficiently! Enough AI for a few days. Time to sleep and play Minecraft for a bit! Maybe buy some groceries too, tomorrow. #aislob #ai #gemini
