Got to work this morning, server room AC had tripped a breaker!
Almost 100 degrees! I’m in the process of building a temperature sensor that alerts my cellphone if that should happen again.

DD-Wrt Project

So I bought a Buffalo WHR-G54S wireless router and put Linux on it.

I used the firmware from the DD-Wrt project. It’s working great. It’s got soo many super cool features. I’ve got it setup with its own host name from dyndns.org so I can see status from work, whos connected etc. I even can ssh into it. Best of all it runs Linux.

Working on the Layout

Decided it was time for a face lift of the site. (and maybe some more frequent posts)

Going simple, using css and div’s instead of 10 tables.
