Posted on July 6, 2025 by baudattitude

A few days ago, I mentioned that one of the services I was adding to my home lab was game streaming, with me repurposing a 5700U-based micro PC as a Bazzite box. Side note: Serious props to the Bazzite team … Continue reading →

I am the alpha nerd

Posted on July 5, 2025 by baudattitude

I do not make this claim lightly. OK, I make it pretty lightly.  “Alpha Nerd” is a pretty high bar to hit, after all, and should really be reserved for people who hand roll binary patches for their custom linux … Continue reading →

Prepping for the next homelab project

Posted on June 23, 2025 by baudattitude

So, my homelab experiment is running generally quite well.  I keep running into an annoying Proxmox bug that makes the ethernet controller hang up, and hopefully they will fix that soon, but I have a lot of self-hosted services now. … Continue reading →

More home server stuff. Reading is FUNdamental!

Posted on May 29, 2025 by baudattitude

It’s been a good week for projects.  Maybe a good couple of weeks, actually – I kinda forgot when I started working on this particular one. I mentioned last month that I’d set up a home server for the purpose … Continue reading →

Well, I had a pretty good run. All hail our machine overlords.

Posted on May 19, 2025 by baudattitude

It’s been a few years since I’ve seen one in the wild, but I’ve known a few IT guys who liked to rock a shirt with some variant of “Be nice to me or I will replace you with a … Continue reading →

A quick script to add a font to an MKV file

Posted on May 12, 2025 by baudattitude

Why do I do this to myself? OK, so.  Some background. I’ve been working on a Jellyfin server as something of a side project, with the idea that it will probably teach me something useful that I can apply at … Continue reading →

Dunstabbin’ (again)

Posted on May 11, 2025 by baudattitude

Finished Assassin’s Creed: Mirage tonight, which is embarrassingly-enough the first “real game” I have completed all year.  I’ve spent entirely too many hours in soulless gacha waifu cash grabs, and I shall do penance appropriately. I mean, after I do … Continue reading →

The Cloudy Stabbing Mans

Posted on April 27, 2025 by baudattitude

While I am a big fan of the Assassin’s Creed franchise, I’m usually at least a couple of years behind the curve when it comes to actually playing the latest entries. So, just getting around to Assassin’s Creed: Mirage, two … Continue reading →

(Let’s Get) Nerdy, Nerdy

Posted on April 8, 2025 by baudattitude

So, new project.  I have a lot of those.  Often they start with grandiose plans and get abandoned once the harsh reality of implementing them smacks me in the face like some sort of wet, soggy face-smacking thing. New NEW … Continue reading →
