Had some time over the last week to finally do some more painting, and managed to get half of the zombie runners painted up. Fortunately, they were all very basic, only a few colors, and all identical, so it didn’t take that much time to complete. I continue to struggle a bit without glasses, which makes it difficult to do anything else at the same time, and working at home also means the light isn’t the strongest. But overall, they turned out pretty decent, though as I write this, I realize I still need some blood effects for each of…

It’s my birthday today, and enjoying some time with family. Continuing our new tradition of seeing Star Wars in the theatre, and then likely dinner and pie or something similar.

It’s a week of solutions as I also seem to have found a fix for the 4K Roku and TV issues. We had upgraded the main TV to a 4K HDR model, using a Roku Streaming Stick +, capable of 4K HDR. However, after numerous attempts, 4K content continued to give a HDCP error, indicating some sort of hardware issue.

Similar to my Nextcloud difficulties, I have also been having difficulties with our custom private Ark servers since the release of Aberration. The original servers with The Island and Scorched Earth are still working fine, but I wanted to add an Aberration server as well.

Seems that each time I post tech problems I manage to fix them shortly after, which has held true for the Nextcloud server. Shortly after I posted yesterday, I had a breakthrough and the service is now running again, and successfully with ssl encryption, from the same server as my wordpress site. A quick update on each client, and an update to the site url link, and all my files are syncing again.

Continuing to be challenged by Nextcloud. Over the weekend, I ended up running an ill-advised system update, which I believed updated PHP on the Nextcloud server, which in turn broke Nextcloud. Not that critical, but painful to rebuild, so my secondary option is to move it to my WordPress server, since they share similar function. Unfortunately, continuing to struggle now with SSL certificates. This wordpress site isn’t that critical that security is needed, but Nextcloud benefits from encryption. So I am trying to get https://www.halfling13.com to go to wordpress, and https://www.halfling13.com to go to nextcloud. It was previously working, but…

Going to be enjoying the holidays over the next couple of weeks with the family, so likely my posting updates will be a bit more random. Have been reviewing the past several weeks worth of content, and although I have been getting lots of comments, none of them thus far have been of any value. In truth, the only comments I receive are spam-bots and similar, which of course are auto-filtered out by the site and never end up getting posted. It is curious to see just how many of those hit the site, even though I know my efforts…

So I got distracted this week, and with a shorter than normal travel schedule, I ended up not working on the planned zombie horde. Instead, I have been spending many hours working on an automated GURPs character sheet, in preparation for my January GURPs Warhammer campaign. Will try to work on the zombies next week, unless I continue to be distracted, especially with the holidays coming up.
