Here’s the scenario: You have a cell phone, a streaming device and a laptop and you want to send their traffic over a VPN without having to configure the devices themselves. Why would you want to do this? Here are some reasons: You don’t want sites on the internet to […]
Recently I changed up my security system. Previously I was using MotionEye to watch my security cameras and when motion was detected in certain areas of the frame, it would save the video to a NAS. I then had a custom browser for these videos I wrote in PHP. (yeah…) […]
First, the screenshot of the final product: Now, how did I do it? First I purchased a few smart plugs. I got 3 Kasa KP115, which are very reasonably priced. Then I set the smart plugs up on my network like normal using the app (and upgraded the firmware, which […]
I started using Atlantis at the behest of a friend who urged me to use it instead of GitHub actions for managing Terraform repositories. Configuring it was slightly more involved than I expected, partly because I configured Atlantis via Terraform which I had never done before but also because I […]

Initially I used Rancher to create it and it was very easy – simply install […]
I recently spun up a couple hosts as Kubernetes workers and interestingly, one of them worked fine but the other would not resolve kube-dns queries. On the node itself, running this command would fail: nslookup kubernetes 10.43.0.10 In kube-proxy logs I found this: E0209 04:40:18.259923 1168 proxier.go:1571] Failed to execute […]
I approached possible disaster scenarios during COVID-19 a lot like a hurricane that you never knew when it was going to hit or how long it was going to last.
As has been for most of my life, I continue to try to grow, change, and decide who it is I want to be
This one caused many hours of befuddlement. I have a router running OPNSense and a Nintendo Switch, but without any modifications to my network, I get a D on NAT Type on my connection tests. I must be able to play Animal Crossing! So here’s what you need to do […]
