I finally enabled ssl (via letsencrypt) for both this blog and Christina’s. I had messed up the redirects however and hadn’t noticed, so http traffic for my site was going to hers.. oops!
Her idea, and a good one at that. It was really quite easy. Automating it (in case i need to ever rebuild) was a little more complicated, but still it’s done.
I still haven’t played with my resin printer yet. In all fairness, I haven’t been using my filament printers either. In the case of resin though, it turns out temperature matters, and it’s been chilly. I’d need to get the resin to about 20-25c, and that’s not easy to do or maintain. Not a big deal, resin is stinky, and I’m ok with waiting until it warms up (and I can open a window).
I have this ultrasonic cutter here in mind as a purchase for this year. Seems like a brilliant idea (obviously, there’s a kickstarter for a cordless version under the name ‘Wondercutter’). Again, it’s no real rush.
The intel cpu bug (with it’s associated potential system slowdown) has me thinking I might treat myself to a workstation upgrade this year — or rather, both workstations. They’re about .. 2? years old at this point, which is a decent run. Replacing equipment on a regular cycle ensures less chance of hitting MTBF. I have a stack of drives to go into my main storage array for the same reason.
