I write about things that interest me here. You can find posts ranging from programming to photography to music to really anything I find interesting.
If there is a specific topic you want to see, check out [tags].
> I recently bought a 2TB hard drive for my home server. I use this server to host NextCloud and you can never have enough storage space. This server is an Inspiron 560s from 2008. It only has two hard drive bays and already has two hard drives.
> It’s a new year and a new me. Now that I have finally graduated, I feel that I have more time to work on my side projects. One of the first big things I have done is rewriting my site generator once again.
> It’s been a while since I last posted. I have been busy working on my weatherstation. I’ll need to write about that soon, but for now I want to talk about the state of my capsule.
> My house used to be connected to Comcast before we switched over to a local fiber ISP. This switch has happened years ago and the house was outfitted with coax back in the Comcast days. Of course now, there is no use for Coax.
> In my original plan for my weatherstation, I would wirelessly send weatherdata to a ground station. I have given up on this idea primarily because managing a rechargeable battery would introduce too many variables. Now, I have decided to have a cable that connects between the ground station and the sensors.
> Yesterday, I wrote about how I broke and repaird my weather-vane After it got repaired, I was able to get the sensor working in software. Everything worked, but there was one thing odd about the sensor.
> I am working on my weatherstation project now, and I’m going to finish it for real! Yesterday I was opening up the weather-vane to reverse-engineer the board it has and make sure what I already know is correct.
> It has been a dream of mine to create my own personal weather station (PWS). I’ve been working on this project for over 6 years now. Due to school and scope creep: I have not been able to complete this project.
> I have always been bad at organizing my life. It can be hard for me to know what to do and when to do it. This is a particularly big problem for me because of executive disfunction.
> I don’t run this capsule on a server that I physically own. I rent out my server from digitalocean. Since my server doesn’t need to have lots of computing power or memory, I have opted to use the cheapest server possible that pennies can buy.
