The premier open source firewall solution that I ignored forever because very few people do a good introduction to it.

Only took like 6 tries to get up and going with docker, only realize that the problem I had was with the reverse proxy configuration

the key with this is the constant rebuilds. from docker, to physical, to vm. I never seems to last long for me, but this time I have the official kvm image, so off we go.

continues to be contentious in a way. I might be building the container wrong but sticking to the base one has a weird port that I just don't like.
nfsv4

yes, finally I am pushing all my nfs storage to nfsv4, about 19 years late, but better late than never

my choice for web bookmarks, I dig it because it takes snapshots of the content
joplin
Tuesday, February 24, 2026
thought about messing with joplin. it encouraged me to get the webdav back up and going.. that was a whole thing, but I haven't gotten back to it, since I think learning how to use orgmode more flexibly is probably a better choice overall. it's just that the orgmode mobile experience, (at least for me) hasn't been incredibly smooth, either on ios or android, but I think I have it going well enough to continue. I do with that orgzly revived would allow you to add your notes in trees. Or maybe they do and I just haven't figured out how to do it.
patchmon

it's good to keep an eye on the patches and stuff that every OS needs. There is a bonus project going on that will combine #patchmon and #checkmk, so I'm going to dive into that.
nginx proxy manager
it's been up and going for a few days and it's aight. abstracts a lot of what's going on from you. I know the nginx config can be esoteric at best, but I don't want to be blind. I have a problem now where every site except #jellyseerr works and I have little to no insight as to why. docker is cool and everything but...
#nginxproxymanager
jellyseerr

so jellyseer doesn't exist anymore, but seerr does and I'm not mad at it.
#seeerr
checkmk
2026-02-22 19:32:45
decided I didn't want the hassle of zabbix, so thought I would take something new for a spin

web automation is a good thing, but not damned easy

docker swarm
I have set up a 9 node cluster of virtual machines, now to get some actual stacks running.
#swarm
second wireguard tunnels
I ran into an issue where one of my vps went down and it that was drapes.
ended up splitting the tunnels into different functions instead
#wireguard
for automated shopping lists and an excuse to buy a barcode scanner.

I got some light bulbs that I want to schedule.
