<h2>{{ .Title }}</h2>
<p>The semester at school is coming to a close. I was running though my camera roll and realized how much I forgot to post here. That'll be one of many projects I have over winter break. This is more of a "note to self" about what I should write about in the coming weeks.</p>
<p>I've had many strides in the personal computing sector of my life. My main desktop got upgraded to Noctua fans. My Dell Precision came back form repair and I've been using it as my main computer, both docked and on the go. It's been as amazing as expected. Ángel has been looking into homelab equipment, which of course means I dive back in as well. My setup from the <a href="/blog/2024-08-16+3-2-1..._Backup+diy+computers+homelab">3-2-1... Backup post</a> isn't fully opperational anymore, and I need to do an update there. My mini server is running, and it's great. So is the one back home techinically, but I'm not sending backups. So that's an issue. The reason for the holdup is that rsyncing is very inefficent which is an issue. File renames aren't handled by default, so rearanging large files means complete retransmission of data. This takes forever. There are several solutions that run in front of rsync that check for things like moved or renamed files and update the remote first before rsyncing. This is great, but I had some issues where it was taking a while to run, and I stopped trying to troubleshoot because I ran out of time. Break will be a good time to get things sorted, though.</p>
<p>I've got some work planned for the Mini. Righting wrongs that were made over the summer and some new things that are popping up. Mostly sensor and electronics related (lovely, I know). I also plan to reassemble the <a href="https://old.scerba.org/html/projects.html#XS650" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">XS650 that's sitting in the garage</a>. The issue was a chewed up main crank bearing. One new crank assembly later, and I have pretty much everything to reassemble. I started the process before I left for school, but I somehow misplaced a crankcase stud. I don't know how it even came loose, but it's a semi-specialty part, so I need to scrounge the web and find one to order. I won't say anything too hopefull, though, in case it hears me. This project has dragged on for years and started when I was in high school.</p>
<p>Cleaning and organizing my room before I graduate is one of the other big items on the list. There's so much junk to sift through. I'm definitely a tech hoarder.</p>
<p>Lastly, I'll be reconditioning my ski equipment and getting out on the hill. I need to see if my old friend is around to come with. We used to go all the time, and it was a blast.</p>
<p>I can't wait for the break to start.</p>
