Spring is here, so of course I had to do some tidying up and tending to my lawn. After mowing, scarifying, aerating, reseeding where holes had appeared and fertilising, the only thing left to do was to keep the lawn well watered. The grass I sowed was Wimbledon. The optimum

This is cross-post from my blog in polish devoted to NetBSD I run several blogs. All under NetBSD as the OS, and Ghost CMS. This type of stack is not officially supported, but since we have nodejs in pkgsrc along with npm and yarn, why shouldn't it work

I self host matomo server instead of Google Analytics. Suddenly some time ago I lost ability to log in, because my 2FA codes stopped working. In my great wisdom I also didn't save any recovery codes.. So here it is how to recover from this situation, and what

This is a rewrite in English of my very first post here, as I think it will be helpful to others looking for how to get the old idrac 6 Java console (tested on DELL R410 and R710) to work nowadays. In fact, I needed to get access to broken
I recently built a new PC with all the latest technology. With DDR5 and 14th generation CPUs, which are still quite new, there are a lot of challenges to even start freshly built PC. I finally got it to boot and display the splash screen. Happily, I started to browse

With the recent CVE for Roundcube, which even our Polish NASK/CERT sent messages to owners of domains with Roundcube exposed to the Internet, I was in a hurry to patch it. However, as of pkgsrc 2023Q3 there is no Roundcube 1.6.4, so I did it with the

Today I booted up my laptop for the first time in 1.5 months as I mainly work from my workstation. After quite a while all updates were downloaded and installed. I did another reboot and after that I wanted to start my home XenOrchestra and then I was greeted

So I recently bought a FireTV device on Prime Day at a pretty good discount. I have an old, not so smart TV with a PS4 connected to it. Whenever we want to watch some movies, we use PS4 with TV aps installed on it, but PS4 is loud even

It has happened to me that I have to reboot a non-critical machine which is a DELL PE 2850. Of course with such old hardware it's iDRAC requires Internet Explorer 7 or something, and it has all the compromised ciphers that modern browsers don't allow. Fortunately

I'm continuing with the HPE server resurrection mentioned in the previous post. Updating firmware with newest SSP ISO (P52574_001_spp-Gen9.1-Gen9SPPGen91.2022_0822.4.iso) went smooth. All disks, and NICs ware updated. However BIOS remained the same v2.90 from 2021. So I downloaded the latest

It was time to pull the 'not so old' HPE ProLiant 380 Gen9 server out of storage, as it had found a use for it as a backup test server. The ILO was statically configured on a subnet that I didn't happen to be using. Nor

Long story short, a nodejs module was missing. This module is called "sharp". How do I know this? Well, in case of an error with ghost, you can easily go into debug mode by stopping host with ghost stop and then running it in debug mode with ghost

I was doing Zigbee2Mqtt update in Home Assistant, and part of this update is always reboot of whole HA VM, because my Conbee II which is passed-trough in XCP-NG can't survive this update. I need to shutdown VM, reattach USB to it and start it again. Normally this
