A place just for me

  • Going back to work Friday

    It’s been a while. 10 days. I’ve been busy. Traded in my old 2013 Hyundai Elantra for a new 2002 Hyundai Kona. I’m really happy with the decision. It’s got all the nice new features, leather, Turbocharger, it’s a compact SUV, and it just looks really, really nice to me. I also finally got around…

  • Clueless and Postfix

    Clueless is on netflix, so I watched it tonight. Quite a few jokes went over my head when I was 13, but that didn’t stop me from watching it over and over again. I’d seen it too many times to actually sit and watch it, so I started setting up Postfix using this tutorial from…

  • MS-100

    I’ve been busy the past few weeks. Work paid for a week long course to prepare me for the Microsoft 365 Identity and Services exam. I didn’t really like the instructor, but the labs and book have been helpful. We could tell from the syllabus that the instructor was not ready for a class as…

  • Setup WordPress

    Decided to do something with an old small form factor Dell I had lying around. Has a 120GB SSD, some sort of intel i5, and 8 GB of RAM. I started by installing Ubuntu Server 20 LTS. Simple. Using apt-get to install apache2, mysql, and a few modules for both was a little more challenging,…
