Christian, antifascist. Politically, I'm about as far left as Bernie and AOC. If you're alive, you need housing, food, and healthcare.

By day, I'm a Cloud Automation Engineer with experience in VCF 9, Ansible, pipelines, and other supporting technologies.

Nights and weekends, I like to bake bread, hike, and work on my home lab. I even occasionally blog about my home lab! If I get any good aurora pictures, I *will* post some of them here.

I'm slowly turning into a history nerd, with an interest in how the US has intervened all over the world, no matter the cost paid by the other country.

A cold front will cross the region this evening and bring scattered showers and thunderstorms. With temperatures climbing into the 70s for many locations, some of these storms may even be strong to severe. Some damaging winds will be possible with the strongest storms. Temperatures will largely continue to run above normal for the rest of the week. Each afternoon and evening will also feature a chance for showers a

What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.

So excited I'm able to watch the live stream of the Artemis II landing in real time! Over 2.5 million people on YouTube, and 200k on Twitch is so awesome to see.

Twitch also has a couple of badges you can pick up if you watch for an hour so I've already changed mine to the NASA logo :D

Here is a hi-res pic taken by Artemis II astronauts of the Sun setting behind the lunar limb.

In this pic, the Sun's Corona is visible as streamers radiating away from the Sun.

The pic's width is ~10 million km at the Sun's distance. The Sun's corona streams out to ~13 million km, as measured by the Parker Solar Probe.

The Moon's jagged backlit topography is visible in this image.

Incredible, someone at Red Hat is apparently reading my toots and slowly scrubbing their website of references to their "compressing the kill cycle" project.

Here's the file they don't want you to read: https://web.archive.org/web/20260402155236/https://www.redhat.com/rhdc/managed-files/ve-compress-the-kill-cycle-detail-693397pr-202402-en_3.pdf

p.s. if you work at Red Hat and have inside info on what's going on, my Signal is "@legoktm.12345" - happy to protect you.

If the people who pick up our recycling could stop destroying my bin, that’d be great…

I picked my bin up today and it had multiple cracks in it, over a foot long each. wtf

I think I finally got everything figured out?!

Wireless clients are getting to the right VLAN, with the addition of a datapath, so that all seems right.

I can route to my other VLAN, and all the traffic seems to be going over the connection to the switch as tagged traffic, which is what I want.

Notably, the bridge does not have VLAN filtering on, though I saw a lot of guides say to do that. I always ran into the issue where enabling that means I lose all connectivity.

Someday I'll make a post on the Mikrotik forums about my config, but that's an issue for another day. I have other stuff I want to get building in there now.
