Bye bye Delicious. Hello Evernote!
Well, with Delicious’ death approaching, I was forced to grab all the bookmarks I’ve been collecting in the past 5 years and make a run to another service. According to some users, Evernote is like a ‘personal assistant’. Since I’ve been needing some assistance with keeping track of all the things going on at the moment, I decided to create an account with the...

What were they thinking?: Chicane fail
wtformula1: Many people aren’t fans of Hermann Tilke and his circuit designs but he could do a lot worse. This is the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben in Germany, a track that hosts a round of the World Touring Car Championship. Rather then the usual first corner chicane, the track was changed to feature two 90 degree turns. As the video below shows, it led to ridiculous circumstances. Read...

Growing a RAID5 array (with LVM) online with MDADM
Trawling through the web I’ve found a lot of information about growing RAID5 arrays, and some sparse information about growing EXT4 partitions. The only problem is they did not appear in the same spots, making this procedure a bit of a guessing game. I recently decided to upgrade my homebrew NAS. In its original form, it had 2x500GB disks and 2x1TB disks. In RAID5, its capacity is limited...

That damn xenserver-linuxfixup-disk.iso!
In case you run into the same problem as me (that is, trying to unplug an already unavailable ISO SR from XenServer 5.6 and finding out that the xenserver-linuxfixup-disk.iso can’t be removed), there’s a way out. Granted, it’s not that easy, but at least it worked for me. Assumptions taken here: you know how to navigate xe (the console tools of the XenServer host), knows the...

The Key to Traffic-based Tickets in RADIUS
I spent ages looking for information on how to limit user access based on traffic used through a captive portal using pfSense, and couldn’t find somewhere with an easy to use SQL command that was generic enough to use with daloRADIUS. Well, in case you were wandering (like me) around the ‘net, here it is: SELECT IFNULL(SUM(AcctInputOctets + AcctOutputOctets),0) AS AcctTotalOctets FROM...
