Hey why does my Clipper card look like that? @kezl.bsky.social

BGP v4 Prefix is a GO! Got some exciting news yesterday! We got our IPv4 block allocated! Looking to start announcing here soon!

These vinyls look super good @4kcarpet.bsky.social! ❤️ Someone did a little sneaky I see...

This project has been a total blast to work on, I'm looking forward to see how far I can take it! 😁

What's due, is due I suppose 🫡 Ft. @gay.sex.where.you.lickmypa.ws

OIDC is the new LDAP, hear me out... It's inherently secure, it's easy, and, it works with (almost) everything. This app, literally makes it stupid easy. pocket-id.org

Writing this up was alot of fun, lots of research and recalling how I did things. I thought it would be a nice way of encouraging others to follow in my footsteps and start their own ASNs :)

I started SCREAMING when I got this working, and my partner was like "what happened!!!???" and came rushing in. I've been cracking at this all day, and finally got it working! He just walked away when he realized it was nerd stuff. I AM my own ISP, and that rocked my world after realizing that! ☺️

Not going to sugarcoat this, I got EXTRAORDINARILY LUCKY with this contract. I found someone, emailed them politely, and managed to negotiate a deal, not something I do too often, but negotiation is power! Looking forward to this after Anthrocon! It's going to be a wild ride!

Learning BGP with my friends has been a total whirlwind! Who knew this much was involved with operating what's essentially the *backbone* of the internet! I'm really looking forward to working on this project! It's going to be awesome!

2AM activities - clicking sliders on pre-staged DNS records and migrating a VM, then nuking the shit out of a baremetal server. Good times... Glad it's finally done though :)

It has been decided, our ASN is: AS402663! Next-step, addressing!

Finally bit the bullet on purchasing / finalizing our ASN. This has been one of those "I'm not sure... Maybe... Why do I...?" type things, but honestly, it should be a good step in the right direction for the company. Will reply to this thread when it's assigned with what it is! 😎

Finally getting around to running backups again on a regular basis. Used to use Veeam NFR prior to forming the business proper, but now that I've gone pro, I'd rather reduce the corner cutting. Using a tool called "Backrest" that uses Restic to automate backups! github.com/garethgeorge...

I'm just now realizing the ultimate pivot is going from homelab to home-business. I can list this "operation" as career experience now on my resume and highlight all of the skills and technologies I needed to build it from the ground up. 🤯

Uh-oh, fellow Bitwarden users, not looking good for those of us who self-host w/Vaultwarden. Although, taking it with a grain of salt, employee chimed in as well and said it was a *mistake* and was put back. www.fastcompany.com/91542655/bit... www.reddit.com/r/Bitwarden/...

Ice cream at work with my work puppy @gsheps.net

Is it socially acceptable to dog on crappy Usenet indexers? Whoever runs DogNZB needs to get their shit together, because if I can't reach your API 40% of the time, I'm not going to use your product lol. Literally 40% miss rate - ???

Man, this con ROCKS! Met the nerds behind nyxtel.net! Radios, telecommunications, and tech!

*ahem* is this thing on? Hi there! 👋

You know what's hot? Bridging our PBXs together 👉🥺👈

PhoenixNet-Labs Mobility When??? Could be even sooner than you think 😎

Man, anyone remember mowned?

I mentioned this weekend that "nobody gets to ride for free" when it comes to users on my Plex server, and I got a funny look. Most folks on there are either good friends who have exchanged goods or services in the past, or just people I really like that *earned* access. Anybody else do this?

The greatest adventures are the ones with the people you truly resonate with ❤️

Girly @furrychi.bsky.social got video of the squad absolutely losing it to @4kcarpet.bsky.social!

Mmm yes, “let’s go to a rave” what’s that, you wanted to sleep?

We’re out there! @ravefurrest.bsky.social Chicago was AMAZING!!!

Hi Chicago!

Where do you think they're going? 🐐: @furrychi.bsky.social 📸: Rice (Unknown Handle)

I've been bit by the Sonos bug, and HOLY these speakers sound so fucking good. I got a promo email the other day for being a "sonos owner" (I own a Play:1 I got at a garage sale for like $10) and decided to buy a pair of Era 100's. MASSIVE UPGRADE from my old setup, that's for sure. 🤯

Man, I hate the whole doom and gloom, "oops I shouldn't have just read that" cycle. Time to stay off the internet for the rest of the night 🫠
