... And if it doesn't work out I have other options in the company. It's a big corp so no shortage of dev teams to move to. But yeah it was a lot to take in after having this dropped out of the blue just a couple days ago 😅

...automations, integrations, and alerts for our SOC, IR and threat hunting teams. With a little bit of work for our pentesting team developing tools to help with their engagements. So a huge change! And there's a lot that I have to learn. But I'm actually kind of excited to learn some new things..

Been a while since I last posted, life has a way of throwing huge curve balls at you. I spent a lot of last year working towards getting my CKAD cert (which I got!) but this week found out our entire department is being restructured. I'm being moved to a new team in a new position, working on...

Also, on the drive back I saw quite a few bridges with No Kings protestors on them, it was a beautiful sight to see 😄🤘🏻

Back from Olympic National Park! Had an incredible time, every inch of the park is breathtakingly beautiful 😍

Increasing tax exemptions for tips will incentivize employers of tipped employees to push tipping even harder so they don't have to pay as much wages

I've also identified my holy grail record: Lucy Gray by Envy on the Coast. I love this album so damn much but there are less than 1k copies in the wild.. Pretty much everyone that has it isn't interested in selling and if they are they're asking for over $150 😭

Album art for the album Lucy Gray by Envy on the Coast. It features a blue background, on the bottom left there are two black balloons with skulls on them and on the top right there is the text "Envy on the Coast Lucy Gray".

Going on a road trip with my wife and 3yo to WA in a week. Will mostly be in the Clallam area around Port Angeles/Olympic NP. Would love some recs on cool stuff to see/do from anyone familiar with the area 😁❤️ #PNW #Washington #Travel #TravelSky #TravelRecommendations

Another banger from him was "why don't we just do this in SharePoint"? Like I'm all for including stakeholders in conversations so I can be sure what I'm working on is actually what they need but holy shit sometimes it makes me want to bang my head against my desk

ImportedReality @importedreality.com · 13/05/2025

Gotta love when you're in a meeting with stakeholders and one guy is obsessed with the new feature being "simple" 🙄 Of course I want it to be simple, devs *generally* don't go out of their way to make something complicated. It happens as a result of ever increasing business requirements.

Going on a trip to NJ for work tomorrow, and trying to explain it to my kid. They've grasped the idea that my wife and them are taking me to the airport but I don't think they quite understand I'll be gone until Thursday lol I'm going to miss them so much 😭

ImportedReality @importedreality.com · 01/05/2025

Something fun I did while away was I got a turntable 😄 I've wanted one for a long time and figured what the hell, life's short. It's been a blast finding stuff to listen to and getting to share the experience with my wife and kid

A turntable stand with records on the bottom shelf, two Edifier R1280T speakers on the middle shelf, and an Audio-Technica AT-LP60 turntable on top. Resting against the wall on top of the turn table is the cover for Take Me Back To Eden by Sleep Token.

Back in the land of the living after a much needed mental health break from social media. I was spending waaay too much time obsessing over all the horrible shit going on and it was seriously messing with my head.

I'm still kicking myself for nuking the nginx config in the first place and not having any backups, but I'm glad I have it working again. And yes, I've made multiple backups of the config files 😅

I FINALLY GOT NEXTCLOUD TO WORK. Like I thought, it was something incredibly minor and stupid. I forgot that I changed the port apache was listening to by default. The only way I figured this out was recovering part of the file using RecoverPy. Pablo Lecolinet if you're out there I owe you a beer

I originally set it up 4 years ago and haven't touched it since so I just can't even begin to remember what needs to be done. Thankfully Nextcloud isn't mission critical for me, mostly just an inconvenience that it isn't working.

ImportedReality @importedreality.com · 11/01/2025

Thanks, so far we've all been feeling better these past few days! And yeah I've been digging through documentation and old forum posts all week but so far none of the examples have worked. I'm sure there is some specific config option I'm missing that will seem obvious in hindsight lol 😅

ImportedReality @importedreality.com · 09/01/2025

Plex, audiobookshelf, deluge, pihole, and forgejo are all back online but I can't get nextcloud to work anymore. Been getting nothing but 502 responses all day and it was over 2 years ago when I first wrote the configs so I have no clue what I'm missing 🙃

ImportedReality @importedreality.com · 09/01/2025

Ugh what a week. Since my last post, my wife got sick with norovirus, my cat came down with bladder stones, and I nuked my nginx proxy configs for my home server 😭 Wife is feeling better and got medicine for Lily, but restoring the configs is a work in progress.

Just got my new PC to post! Still feeling a little sick and completely out of energy so I'll probably have to put off installing Arch until tomorrow and just run memtest overnight. Will take some pictures tomorrow as well 😎

Feeling a lot better today, still getting occasional waves of nausea but I'm otherwise symptom-free and able to actually get out of bed. I just count myself lucky that I only get super sick like that once or twice a year.

My progress so far on my TOTEM build! Almost done with the switch sockets, then on to the microcontrollers. It quickly became apparent that my soldering skills are very, very rusty. A few dodgy welds but everything should hopefully work 😅 Thankfully I have a backup board in case it doesn't

Yeah it being in closed beta for so long definitely raised the hype to ridiculous levels lol but it isn't just all hype there is a lot to like about it. Definitely give it a spin when you get a chance!

Got on my PC for the first time this week and immediately installed ghostty. It's weird to be excited about a new terminal emulator I know 😅 So far I'm loving it! It just seems very well thought out and polished. Since it has proper image support it'll probably end up replacing Alacritty
