Having my annual itch to start blogging again and I noticed that it’s almost a year since the last time I posted. Good grief. What’s been going on in tech land this year? I continued to move everything for the home systems and Chia to wall mounts. That’s now complete, with the exception of the […]
Per my earlier post, I’ve been using a Pi Zero W with Chromium in a kiosk mode to display Grafana on a TV. Not sure if something changed with Chromium in the December 2020 release, but it wasn’t working when I tried to do a rebuild. So, I found an alternative and I’ve been having […]
Testing out the ability to run some containers on RPi4 and I have a single borrowed device. Most of the tutorials out there describe a multi-node configuration and that’s led to some challenges for me to understand this. First, I started with this tutorial: https://github.com/mhausenblas/kube-rpi This gets you there most of the way, but I […]

I didn’t elaborate on this, but my previous post was driven by a change to Grafana visualization that effectively broke the ChromeCast Kiosk server I was using. The recommended solution was to use a proxy for displaying the iFrame, or […]
I’ve been trying to set up OpenVAS on a tiny PC like the RPi lately. Based on this post: https://dayne.broderson.org/2018/05/24/RPi_Vulnerability_Scanner.html I wasn’t expecting much success. And that’s what I found. It wasn’t really usable. I saw the TinkerBoard and the extra performance and RPi compatibility and thought that might be a good thing to try. […]
There seems to be conflicting info out there for how to accomplish this. Compounded with the Zero’s different micro ports, it’s easier if you can set it up as a headless device. Unfortunately, I found that if you try to do this locally, with a monitor and keyboard, the order of operations causes the ssh […]
No, I’m not talking about myself. I’ve embarked on an ambitious project that is sure to never get completed. On my way there I’m working on getting an RN-XV “cheap” WiFi adapter talking to an Arduino. I’ve had all kinds of issues getting it connected and it all comes down to spaces. I’ll have more […]
