Improved internet throughput by disabling router QoS...hadn't realized how much of an impact it was having...extra 300 megs

Managed to set up automatic mirroring of my local gitlab instance into GCP source repo as backup.

Was a lot more fiddly than expected because I opted for hard mode - implement it as an ansible script that builds an LXC, sets up git & SDK in it, authenticates against gitlab (ssh) and authenticates GCP via service account. The actual pull & push is the easy part (currently via 5 min cron, webhook will have to wait).

Now I can use the local gitlab for all my crucial docs, notes, source knowing it's replicated & safe against ransomware. :)

Anyway super chuffed about it cause it was mostly own code rather than configuring something that already exists like a docker image etc

Can I ask what’s your use case for a local gitlab instance? What features do you make use of?

Part of a general push to self-host where viable out of principle. Picked gitlab over gitea etc because I've done CI+docker registry stuff in GCP before and gitlab appears to support those kind of setups better.

...however haven't gotten round to setting up the CI & registry (cause https within lan isn't up yet)...so currently not using any advanced features of note. Further down the road I want to deploy jamstack websites driven by mdx via CI.

Much of which could be achieved much easier with github & friends of course. Not really looking for path of least resistance here given that it's principle/learning driven

Normally I don't run an ad blocker, I just ignore these.

However, these jokers have managed to get a pop-up to appear when clicking on a link (wanted to download Rufus from the official site).

So I added these plonkers to my hosts file. No more popups, no more "Ramposa said..."nonsense.

That popup gave me the creeps, not sure what gonna happen if you click on Cancel or OK...

Using 5l bottles of Valpre to flush the loo, never thought that things would come to this. Filling up the 5l bottles in the times of oasis was never more important.
