Just finished the installation of wire trays for our fiber. No more having to fish them through the drop ceiling tiles.

It's the stuff of "I Can't Even," some mine, some inherited, but at the very least (thanks to ML) I've learned a ton.

Looks like I'll be up extra early tomorrow to buy tickets to see what will probably be the best tour of 2018....
Primus and Mastodon.

All these new superhot pepper strains got me drooling... I might need to order up a few more seeds before I get the garden started for this year.

HA - little victories I tell ya... thanks for being an ear for the talk out @scottalanmiller
Now running a Ham Radio APRS iGATE using the rPi3 and the neSDR SMArt - It's on the map! pretty cool,.. now - to build out the power for it for battery operations and to start working on it's portable twin
What is APRS:
Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS) is an amateur radio-based system for real time digital communications of information of immediate value in the local area.[1] Data can include object Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates, weather station telemetry, text messages, announcements, queries, and other telemetry. APRS data can be displayed on a map, which can show stations, objects, tracks of moving objects, weather stations, search and rescue data, and direction finding data.
APRS data are typically transmitted on a single shared frequency (depending on country) to be repeated locally by area relay stations (digipeaters) for widespread local consumption. In addition, all such data are typically ingested into the APRS Internet System (APRS-IS) via an Internet-connected receiver (IGate) and distributed globally for ubiquitous and immediate access.[2] Data shared via radio or Internet are collected by all users and can be combined with external map data to build a shared live view.
APRS has been developed since the late 1980s by Bob Bruninga, call sign WB4APR, currently a senior research engineer at the United States Naval Academy. He still maintains the main APRS Web site. The initialism "APRS" was derived from his call sign.

Awesome. Can you write up a how-to on this?

I can try - not the best in documentation.. but I've try to make notes as I have done this with what I have run into.. and I've run into another issue - but one which can be resolved... user needs permissions to write to the log dir, so got a access denied.
Another ham not to far off has his polling a Google Calendar for the beacon text... not sure on that yet.

How much I love zsync. Wrote a client for our gaming community last year. Unlike rsync, there's no direct server connection beyond HTTP required.
Just synced 18.6 GB worth of updated files, took me three minutes and 20 seconds with 100 MBit downstream. Mostly disk-I/O.

Have not heard of zsync, that seems pretty useful.
