Happy Friday, hope no one gets a surprise pen test today!
Check out this video to see what the experience of upgrading my Framework laptop with a Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU and RTX 5070 GPU was like, and if an upgradable system like this one is for you: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYST...
Well, you see, when two networks like each other very much...
Happy Friday

In this video, I demonstrate how to use Wireshark with UniFi to capture live packets directly from your network devices.
Whether troubleshooting DNS, DHCP, or mysterious disconnects, Wireshark lets you go beyond the UniFi dashboard and see the truth in the traffic.

Not sure what the assembly is called but those appear to be standard fans.
Kubernetes is great... if you like complexity.
Here’s how I keep my homelab simple: running Docker on one Debian 13 VM with straightforward bind mounts. Clean, easy to manage, and simple to back up - plus a look at the containers I rely on day to day.

TP-Link acknowledged security reports but...
Did nothing until the research was made public. Take a close look at the timeline

A few seconds, an exposed port, or the right timing can lead to a serious incident.
In this video, I break down an event that struck shortly after onboarding a client, what could have gone wrong, and why it didn’t - lessons for anyone managing real-world IT environments.

Few people know ZFS like Allan Jude, and in this discussion, we dive deep into what makes it so powerful - and occasionally so tricky.
From alignment tuning and drive choices to ZFS with containers and NVMe optimization, we unpack what’s changing, what’s coming next, and more.

pfSense+ has made some changes in 2025. There's better security defaults for OpenVPN, they made PPPoE significantly faster, added VXLAN support, and Netgate Nexus - their new multi-instance management tool that you can self-host on your own system:

RAID isn’t a backup, and failures don’t wait for a schedule.
In this video, I show how I use Syncthing for real-time backups that alert you to changes as they happen. Perfect for Homelab setups, tests, or anyone who likes keeping data safe without waiting for a nightly job.

In this video, I test a tiny Beelink Cube to see if it can handle a TrueNAS instance. Compact, surprisingly capable, and yes… a little borg-cube-esque. Perfect for homelab tinkerers who like to push small hardware a little too far (but not lightyears or anything.)

Who says open source is just for tinkering? Companies like Vates prove it can power a real business: youtu.be/19oGMBQypeE
This is about when ZFS replication goes wrong – how you recover from it or fix it, so you don’t have to resend everything, and how to fix a stuck process. There’s some command line work involved, but it’s well worth the effort.

Turning a Mini PC into a NAS sounds like a stretch - but that’s half the fun.
Here’s an experiment using an NVMe-to-SATA adapter to see how far small form-factor hardware can go. Compact, unconventional, and it just might inspire your next budget-friendly homelab build.

Back in 2019, I compared Synology and UniFi’s camera platforms. A lot has changed since then.
In this update, I walk through how both systems have evolved, where each one shines, and what you should focus on when evaluating them or any modern surveillance stack.
