Star Wars Armada
Played another game of Armada with George on Friday (video will be posted likely in a few days), using my same fleet makeup for the Rebellion as before. George altered his fleet, to include the massive Imperial Star Destroyer, two small destroyers, and only a small number of squadrons. The game was hard fought, but…

Back from Toledo
Finally back from my regular travel schedule again, this time for more than just the weekend. As part of my work, I routinely travel to Toledo, which although it is a nice enough city, is not home with the family. It also makes it difficult to work on my various projects and activities. Hopefully this…

Site updates

FreeNAS Day 2
It ran until late last night, but I can say at this point that my recent FreeNAS rebuild/upgrade is almost entirely complete, and definitely running well at this point. There was quite a bit to learn, what with the change from Jails to Containers, and all the new configuration items, which was not made any…

FreeNAS Overhaul
Over the weekend, I began to notice memory issues on my FreeNAS server which I use for many purposes, including hosting this site. Initially, my thought was a hardware problem with the memory, but at this point, I am suspecting it was either a problem with the FreeNAS OS code, or potentially just a bug…
