Github Link Wow this is wild. I’m going to have to try this out. I remember using OpenGL playing Quake2. I’d like to try this out. If I do I’ll be sure to update later. I should really be in bed by now. GN 73

Many years ago I changed the default IPMI password for my TrueNAS mini from iXsystems. They no longer are developing the FreeBSD based version TrueNAS Core. I decided to switch to vanilla FreeBSD. I ended up finding in the Wiki linked below. You have to load the IPMI kernel module manually! That’s why I enjoy running the system vanilla bare metal. It only loads the minimum. After I loaded the module I was able to reset the password with ipmitool. You can see it listed as number 13 below. ...

I was laying in bed today and I got a text from a random number. It was of some kids and my buddies grave. Suddenly I got the impulse to go see him. Alzie had already asked me if I wanted to ride today anyways. 😆 I texted him and he quickly said he was down. It’s been three or four years since I’ve been there. It was dark by the time we got back home but it was worth it. I hope I don’t hurt too bad tomorrow. 😟 ...

For many years I’ve ran a relay for the Tor project. Some people say it’s bad. It can be used for good and evil. The same as any other tool. Hetzner used to give me 20TB a month but they ended up turning that down to 2TB per month. For a $5/Month service that seems to be the norm for US, that I’ve found. Oniux via rust I noticed a post about Oniux on Mastodon. Is this the same concept that FreeBSD uses for Jails? I recall hearing namespace in the handbook and FreeBSD Mastery: Jails! Go get some of his books so he can buy some food for his rats. He has great skill to break down topics simply. All the books are DRM free you can get them here. ...

WB4AEG sent me this today. They also threw everything up on Github. They even made a companion book to go along with the radio. You can get it here! That is so cool. I love the fact that it has actual knobs and switches you can use. Sometimes that’s better for me in the field, if the sun is bright. Another rig I’ve been eyeballing is the zBitx from HF Signals. I love the fact that it will run off 18650 batteries! It’s neat to see there are so many options for the tinkerer aside from the big Japanese brand radios. I still need to get busy building my QCX mini. I signed up for cw academy but it was too late in the semester already. ...
