This server provides hosting for various projects under development. When these projects cross over into useful web applications, they are listed under the Hosted Domains or Web Applications menus. The purpose is to provide a live development environment for myself and others that request access. I also use it as my personal soapbox.

15 years ago this website was in it's prime. Before bots forced disabling of the comments, I had a
dedicated core for every user to tell me how amazing I was. Before the
last downgrade, I had achieved 16 threads of raw webserver power. Today I decided the 4 thread downgrade is simply not enough to handle my brand. A used $30 Intel i7-4790 was the answer, thanks to successful Intel marketing of hyperthreading. I'm now back to
8 threads of glory even though my system and memory busses are not quite up to as much glory as I'd like. The
comparison benchmark reflects what Intel sold me. More threads are the same as more cores.
With AI gobbling up all memory and storage, it's time for this server to return to the
Dell Optiplex 3020 SFF Treasure Box from the
Ryzen 7700 which holds 64GB of more-valuable-than-gold DDR5 memory. The market will give me $550 for the memory I paid $180 for just one year ago, so the ever fabulous golden RGB server rises once again. My
6 NVMe drive array is now the temp plotter for Chia as the Storj drives were moved off to SATA SSDs and I no longer need a 4x4x4x4 bifurcation for this server. Going from 16 cores to 4 and 64GB RAM to 16GB has yet to show any major slow down, but if it does too bad. I'm greedy for my AI bubble money!
My trusty Ninja 300 and I first met
12 years ago and it's been a beautiful relationship.
As the first entry level bike with fuel injection, it's been nothing but reliable and easy maintenance. What better way to repay those years of reliability than to abandon it for a younger model
with a crazy and unnecessary hybrid gas/electric propulsion system.
My last purchase taught me no matter how much of a jerk you are, the sales people are either not allowed to kick you out or are too desperate to move product.
My trusty 300 went from "the most you'll get is $500" to upwards of $2,500, and the $1,500 rebate jumped to $2,500 for a total of $8,500 purchase on a $12,500 MSRP.
It probably helped that this particular bike is clearly aimed at nerdy motorcycle riders, of which there can't be that many. I'm confident the sales guy was thrilled to be rid of it.
Before I could take ownership though, as a sign of things to come for this motorcycle, an
active recall software update was required.
The tech had to connect to all 8 modules and update them individually. No central bus on this bike, so future updates will always be upwards of an hour. The lack of a clutch or gearshift was initially confusing, but I'm on board with the paddle shifters and various power modes now. Here's a
cheesy royalty-free music overview video to bring you up to speed.
With the demonification of unsecure HTTP traffic in full swing, the random nonsense that is this webserver clearly can't remain unsecured any longer. A valid SSL certificate on ever server is the only solution for our future, so I've decided to do the absurd and
actually secure this website. Why internet browsers can't determine the uselessness of this website and agree SSL is wasted on it is beyond me. And since I spent the time to generate the SSL cert of great waste, I decided to also properly forward all IPv6 traffic for this domain to this newly secured webserver as well.
BEHOLD: The Grade A SSL Secured Abomination
The recent Storj node addition to my
blinged out webserver has made certain hardware limitations come to light. Specifically, the lack of native M.2 slots for NVMe storage expansion. After a brief flirtation with a 10TB SATA HDD, it's become clear Storj needs SSD speeds to work effectively. Rather than do the smart thing and end my Storj node, I've gone all in with a new motherboard using my displaced Ryzen 7700 CPU, which supports PCIe bifurcation of the x4x4x4x4 variety. Thus my
6 NVMe drive wall mounted web server (and Storj node) machine is born.
After playing around with
Storj I decided to jump in and
create a dedicated node. Consequently, this server now serves up distributed data in addition to embarrassing photos and stories about old people. I'm sure the current 2TB of space will become too small shortly, but for now it lets me see if this is even worth it. Something to keep me distracted when Chia is too stable.
