  • I remember how amazing it was to upgrade the memory cards in the PS2 to those third party ones.

    Whereas the paltry 128kB memory cards in the PS1 were painful to deal with, especially with those games that demanded multiple save slots.

    Cartridge based games varied so much with save slots. Some games I recall playing from the SNES era only had 3 slots I think. I remember Mega Man X used a clever passcode feature to let you ‘save’.






  • I self host a Wordpress site that mostly acts as my design portfolio.

    It’s hosted in a Debian VM on a restricted VLAN with caddy handling SSL certificates. Uptime isn’t a huge concern for me since it’s nothing mission critical. It all sits behind a free Cloudflare proxy which allows for my home IP to be hidden.

    I think as far as safety goes, I’m comfortable with this setup.














  • Each year I seem to think “this will be the year I set up IPv6 in my homelab” - but then I never get around to it.

    If I have to run both v4 and v6 concurrently, there isn’t much incentive/motivation for me to use v6 locally.

    Maybe I’ll get around to it when there’s a net benefit for me for my use case, or when I’m forced to.

    Am I just imagining it to be more complicated than it actually is?

    My router runs pfsense and I have 6 VLANs each with its own subnet - Management, Trusted, IoT, Cameras, Guest, and Web Facing Servers.
