Was weird not being able to reach 1800Mbps on the new connection following an upgrade.
After a quick chat with YouFibre, they managed to resolve it. Amazing stuff.

And we’re done. Migrated the home network to the new kit.

Baby fed and changed. Time to chill out with some Alien Earth.
She’s only behind me in a crib, but the baby monitor just lets me take a quick glance at her.

Self-hosted baby apps are great. Had the choice up subscribing to different apps to track feeds, changes, etc, but honestly, “Baby Buddy” does all of this and more, while being open source and self-host able in less than 5 minutes.
Interested to play around with the API and some automation son

Too much spare time
Finished setting up a Pi 5 I had around doing nothing.
Also had a bunch of spare monitors laying around in the garage, so thought I’d put it to use.
Now displaying metrics via Grafana for my Proxmox cluster at home, servers in Hetzner and anything else that looks kinda neat.

I do enjoy the fact that I can just get AI (ChatGPT or Grok) to give me a script that lists all containers and VMs in my Proxmox environment and allow easy connecting straight to them, for when I'm away/ remote (via Mosh & Tailscale).
There are a bunch more containers, but I edited them out. 🫠

The Art of Infra Subnet calculator is now getting neat.
Adding the option to export the subnets to clipboard as TXT, CSV, JSON. The export also contains the reserved addresses in the cloud space.
Will add YAML to the mix too.
Any others we can think of? Maybe Terraform? CloudFormation?
