In November 2019 I moved this blog from Hugo to MediaWiki, in January 2021 I moved it back.

In my previous post I wrote about turning Hugo aliases into Firebase redirects. Now — let’s convert them into a Nginx map file, and have Nginx redirect based on that file.

Using Firebase and Hugo? Use front matter aliases to automatically add redirects to your firebase.json configuration. Turning your aliases into proper 301 or 302 redirects.

I recently had a couple of 2 TB drives to spare, and thought I would put them to good use as a ZFS mirror on my Arch Linux desktop.

My girlfriend wanted a digital calendar on the kitchen wall; I made one with a 24" monitor, a Raspberry Pi and DAKboard.

I’m replacing a disk and and expanding my ZFS 2×RAID-Z2 pool 👇

I have two Dell OptiPlex 9010 SFF computers, and one of them have been unused and unplugged for a long time. So long in fact that the CMOS battery is now dead. But replacing it was simple.

I like to have control of my files, but at the same time I want them to be easily available — everywhere. I’ve been struggling with finding the golden path between accessibility, convenience, privacy and safety. This is what I have come up with (so far).

So we bought a new house — now to disassemble everything and prepare to move!

I made a simple script that adds entries to a map file — which HAProxy reads. And voila — a URL shortener! 👇
