Rebuilding Servers

May order a new server soon. I am building a proxmox cluster and I have 2 old dells that are no longer cutting it.

I have been working on my proxy server, moving it to another server and installing up to date ubuntu server software. That’s done now to make a good copy of my email server for a backup.

80 Years of Remembering Pearl Harbor: Valor, Sacrifice, and Peace

By Paula Ratliff

PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii—Thousands of people gathered here on Tuesday to commemorate the 80th Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

The surprise assault by the Imperial Japanese Navy on Dec. 7, 1941, carried out prior to a declaration of war, plunged the United States into World War II.

The ceremony honored the fallen, encouraged the survivors, and brought healing and closure to the 396 families who waited for their loved ones to finally be identified. A smaller group of families, 33 in all, re-interred the remains of fallen warriors who have remained unidentified despite years of effort.

The Japanese arrived quietly on a Sunday morning with dive bombers, torpedoes, and suicide planes, raining terror throughout the Island.  One wave came, then a second, killing 2,402 people and wounding 1,143.

Thanksgiving 2021

Had a great day for Thanksgiving. Lots of food and family. Everyone brought something and no one went away hungry. Lots of small kids that made it fun.

Two Years And Still Running.

It’s been right at two years and I still haven’t caught the Chinese Virus. They are still trying to contain it but that’s a lost cause. The Biden government is still trying to implement a covid-19 vaccine mandate. That’s not going so good either. Winter is coming and people are starting to get the flu like they do every year, but now its the CCP virus. With so many supposedly vaccinated and now with booster shots, it seems they are the ones spreading it.

Looks like Thanksgiving will cost more this year as inflation is eating more of my dollars.

But it’s all about spending time with the family anyway. I’m sure everyone will pitch in and help.

Have a good Thanksgiving everyone. Stay safe and let the stress roll off of you.

Website Back Up

The site has been down for awhile and I took the opportunity upgrade the server software.

It’s taken awhile and I had a few problems but since I am partly retired I have had some time to work with it.

Hopefully I won’t be down too much but there are some back up issues with the new version of proxmox 7.

Post some notes if you have the inclination.

Texas Dems who fled state sue Gov. Abbott for trying to bring them back: ‘Discomfort and embarrassment’

By Emma Colton

Nearly two dozen Texas House Democrats who fled the state last month have sued Gov. Greg Abbott and other Republican officials, alleging that GOP efforts to bring them back to the state Capitol for a special legislative session infringed on their constitutional rights. 

The 22 plaintiffs have been “deprived of liberty for substantial periods of time, suffered much anxiety and distress over separation from their families, and much discomfort and embarrassment,” the complaint filed late Friday alleges.
