I've played quite a bit of Pocket Camp lately, so here's my updated camper card for it.

So I got curious and did some math on how much time I wasted playing games last year.

I spent **at least** 10% of 2025 playing games.

Mmmm migrating off of ingress-nginx is going to be a lot more annoying than I was anticipating. It seems other ingress controllers either don't have ModSecurity or it's an enterprise feature.

It's also interesting that Courage the Cowardly Dog had episodes about global warming in 2000 and 2001.

The glow effects in old Cartoon Network shows before they switched to digital animation look so cool.

At least four videos show what really happened when ICE shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday. DHS has established itself as an agency that cannot be trusted to live in or present reality. https://www.404media.co/dhs-is-lying-to-you-about-ice-shooting-a-woman/

Fuck you.
A post by Donald Trump on Truth Social that says the following: I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Guess I'll be eligible to get my phone's battery replaced soon. 😬
This iPhone battery health screen shows the battery is in normal condition with an 81% maximum capacity, indicating it's performing as expected. The cycle count is 635, and the battery was manufactured in August 2023 with first use in September 2023.

Currently reworking the storage for my Jellyfin server. Basically moving the data from an instance of Hetzner's storage box service to a dedicated file server. Storage box is great, but the speed can be pretty slow.

Setting up a new iPhone to transfer from an old one is shockingly more annoying than it should be. Add on the fact that the older one has a completely shattered screen makes it even more annoying.

Good thing I found a way to do it, but damn was that rough. Lol

Well one of the Raspberry Pis in my Kubernetes cluster shit the bed. No idea if it'll recover on its own before I get home from work. Lmao

Nothing critical runs on it, so no loss really.
