I wasn’t really sure when I saw this initially but the trailer pulled me in. It’s a really cute movie with the doe-eyed protagonist one of those you really enjoy cheering for and feeling the lows with her too. The ending is wide open for a sequel and it would make an absolutely fantastic series but this article seems to cast doubt on a restriction of the story on the big screen. I’ll be rooting for the sequel and will rake this as 4.3 out of 5, well worth your time!

Happy Easter
We went to have lunch with the family and retrieved the RV and brought it back to park in the new pad for it, I hit the wall a couple of times but we wrangled it into place…

Watched – Moonfall
Halle Barry is the known element of this 2022 sci-fi/action flick. It’s a bit out there but it makes for a decent movie. The premise is that the moon has fallen out of its orbit and it’s jacking things up on Earth in a pretty bad way. So lots of special effects to see the world getting almost blown apart and the moon a creation of crazy origins. In a world of some really bad movies this one is watchable and entertaining. 3.5 out of 5.

Prework being done.
Started capping off the sprinkler system for the dig. Skid steer will be here Friday for a week. Hoping that most can get done over this weekend.

RV Relocated
So I’ve been hesitant to move the RV because that means I’ve got to get moving on getting the driveway extended with the pavers but my sister was kind enough to let me store it at her place while I get the project done. So the clock is ticking, I’m overthinking this, all I have to do is move dirt and level, the skid steer will do most of the walk.

Server Lag Addressed
So for whatever reason, I didn’t remember Google’s DNS addresses right and I set them up wrong on the actual server. Once the server was reliably able to communicate properly with DNS we seem to be golden and everything is working the way it should and is pretty fast. So I guess I can start addressing the email to the database I was talking about, and figure out what the hell to do with docker, or podman, or whatever it is that allows that mechanism to work. More on that to come.

All Primary Web Sites/Services Back
I believe I’m happy to announce that all services are back including asberry.org photos and news feeds. Now that we have that taken care of, we’re moving on to putting the mail connection stuff into a database, not sure which one yet but I’ll figure it out. Then it’s desperate that we figure out the docker situation or podman or whatever they want to call it. I do need to get that working. Also we can spin up some VM’s to see what’s going on with those. Super excited to be working with RHEL, it’s all that and a bag of chips so far.

Email up and running
I’m still sometimes baffled about what I can do when I set my mind to it. The email server is back up and running as well as it was before. Oddly enough this was fixed basically by overwriting what was already there from a default install with backups. I used Meld on my Mint desktop to connect in and compare files in the live RHEL vs the legacy Fedora that it replaced. I’m still not sure how it all comes together but even the TLS is working. Now I can get around to moving the users to a DB so things like changing passwords will work properly. Still need to speed up WP but I’ve got leads and am working on it.

Server Upgraded, WP Still Slow
Well I did get the server RAM upgraded to 64GB and I’ve seen some impressive speed increases when it comes to Cockpit but that’s about it, I’m still seeing some major lag on the WordPress sites. I’ll need to figure out what is going to with WordPress and I still need to get email up and running. I had hoped it would be just a drop in but I just haven’t had a chance to pay attention to get it running properly. Missing saslauthd or something like that. Oh well, it’s okay, I’m happy with the drives and memory upgrade, it’ll last me another 5 years as the home-based Linux server.

On My Own
I’m all by myself this weekend, that’s a good thing, gives me a chance to just chill by myself and geek out. I got the 64 GB of ram for my T30 server and it works!!! Still didn’t speed up my word press instances but quadrupling the ram is never a bad thing. This will allow for the use of virtual machines and pods/dockers if I can ever figure that out. I speced out a new T40 and they come with 8GB of ram and you can add another 8 for $200 more, so it’s $1400 to get to 64GB, it cost me $333 and I was pissed about that. Oh well, it’s upgraded and I probably won’t have to do anything more for another 5 years hopefully.
