Tonight’s vm setup was a little more successful. I don’t have them up and running yet, but all files have been copied over for me to begin plugging everything together tomorrow! While waiting for files to copy I got a little more animation done in SFM; I’m about a minute …
Did more server work this evening. I made a backup of the current gameserver files, and got Samba up and running under AlmaLinux to perform the file transfer. It was fun trying to remember how it all worked — I haven’t setup a Samba share in an eternity. One of …
I’ve been spending the better part of the evening trying to diagnose a problem friends’ gaming computer. As it turns out, the memory controller is borked on the motherboard, and I’m going to recommend to them that if they’re going to change motherboards that they might as well upgrade the …

New monitor arrived! All pixels are good. Just in time too, since I start my vacation after work tomorrow! I played a little Portal 2 tonight, and also started chopping up Broforce footage. It’s a shame that I have to start from scratch again, but there are several improvements that …
With the new PC build in place I felt it was a good excuse to upgrade my Linux install, though I couldn’t decide between upgrading to a newer version of Mint or venturing out to try another distro. I contemplated trying Solus OS, but found it to be a little …
I’ve been busy getting my system put back together. Finally have the 3900x installed onto the new motherboard (ASRock x570 Taichi). Now I’m rocking two NVMe drives, two SSD’s and six 7200rpm server grade mechanical drives. I still have some things to refine under Windows 10, but I’m pretty much …
