Where to begin when starting a #homelab. #LSNED #learnsomethingneweveryday #selfhosting #selfhosted by @sciaticnerd

There’s lots of things that we can’t do something about, so why not focus on something within our reach? Like trying to learn something new every day!

Happy New Year everyone! by @sciaticnerd

I’ve seen lots of posts of late talking about all manner of things related to the concept called AI. Sometimes it can be fun to explore ideas just to see what turns out.

Today, submitted for your eyesight, I share with you, gamer team versus gamer team, using medieval trebuchet to hurl oversized gaming dice across a warehouse for points in an attempt to take down their opponent’s makeshift maze-like, defensive constructions.

May it cause people to try it in real life and launch a new kind of “sport.”

The almond scone was ridiculously good today! The The Baked Bird knocked my socks off on this one. Took some of it home to enjoy later!

Aaaand I’m also guilty of splitting a Boston crème Pop-tart-like treat, too. Couldn’t believe how flavorful that was. The texture was fantastic and flaky, too! (Sort of visible in the background)

If you didn’t give them a try today, then ya have to wait until Wednesday now.
