  • In our guest house, whenever the laundry machine ran, half the lights would go out. It was due to the drain hose having a small leak. The water seeped down and shorted an outlet in the crawl space. So I had to:

    • fix the drain hose
    • replace the main water disconnect valve that randomly wore out and got stuck in the off position (learn about pex, buy and use a crimper tool)
    • replace some rotten wood
    • replace shorted outlet with GCFI
    • replace crawl space skirting I broke when investigating

    Ah, good times. But now it’s all fixed. For now.


  • Stuff I run:

    • HomeAssistant (home automation)
    • frigate (local foss security cam mgmt)
    • metube (web gui for yt-dlp)
    • technitium (dns mgmt with adblocking and many other features that make it better than pihole imo)
    • pdfDing (foss for pdf library mgmt)
    • netbird (in lieu of ddns, I use this self hosted vpn to connect to stuff when I’m not local)
    • caddy (maybe similar to ngnx, this lets me use custom names so I don’t have to remember ip/ports to connect)
    • heimdall (simple static dashboard)
