[313.44 --> 317.44] Well, you're getting that baby adapted to travel early, which I hear is the way to do |
[317.44 --> 317.64] it. |
[317.76 --> 319.80] So hopefully she'll be a travel pro. |
[320.04 --> 320.46] Hopefully. |
[320.66 --> 321.48] You know, right away. |
[321.72 --> 325.18] You know, the weirdest thing, though, you'd think after three years, it would feel weird |
[325.18 --> 330.60] to come back to a different country that drives on the correct side of the road, that measures |
[330.60 --> 331.48] everything correctly. |
[332.18 --> 335.84] But, you know, the weirdest thing actually is that it doesn't feel weird at all. |
[335.94 --> 337.72] It doesn't even feel like we ever left. |
[338.12 --> 341.26] It's just picking right back up where we left off. |
[341.26 --> 342.62] It's bizarre. |
[343.22 --> 346.58] For me, you know, just even after this road trip, we were gone for about 40 days. |
[346.78 --> 351.68] For the first two days that I was back in the Seattle area, it felt a little strange, |
[351.74 --> 354.04] like, oh, this doesn't quite click anymore. |
[354.30 --> 357.54] But now that I've been here for, you know, a little bit more than a week, it just feels |
[357.54 --> 359.22] totally normal back into the swing of things. |
[359.26 --> 360.02] Is it kind of like that? |
[360.28 --> 360.44] Yeah. |
[360.70 --> 360.92] Yeah. |
[360.92 --> 364.52] I mean, I've still got a couple of British bank accounts, so I've got all the correct |
[364.52 --> 366.72] credit cards to pay for things with. |
[366.94 --> 368.96] You know, I can just pay for petrol and it's no problem. |
[369.36 --> 371.48] And you're no longer the one with the accent anymore. |
[372.54 --> 374.20] It is so nice. |
[374.32 --> 377.72] I can't lie to just not have that be a talking. |
[377.94 --> 378.72] Oh, my God. |
[378.72 --> 379.78] I love your accent. |
[380.44 --> 380.84] Yeah. |
[381.16 --> 381.38] Yeah. |
[381.42 --> 383.78] I bet you get that all the time, especially in the South. |
[383.82 --> 384.90] That must be very common. |
[385.16 --> 385.96] Oh, my gosh. |
[385.96 --> 390.52] Of course, my go-to line to them is, well, you're the one with the accent. |
[391.40 --> 395.82] And you can just see people stop and look at me like, oh, yeah, I suppose I do have |
[395.82 --> 396.92] an accent to you, don't I? |
[398.52 --> 405.42] I imagine, much like myself, you must go through a lot tech-wise and with your home setup to |
[405.42 --> 406.60] get ready for a trip like this. |
[406.78 --> 407.20] Well, yeah. |
[407.26 --> 410.70] I mean, I've got three years worth of tech debt that I wanted to try and address on this |
[410.70 --> 410.98] trip. |
[411.58 --> 414.14] A bunch of stuff to my old UK server. |
[414.14 --> 419.66] I wanted to try and improve things for my parents as well, who have a bunch of old laptops |
[419.66 --> 424.76] that are just sat around gathering dust that they'd love to get the data off of and find |
[424.76 --> 430.98] ways to manage all their photos, all this kind of stuff, and try and bring some of the |
[430.98 --> 437.32] self-hosting stuff that I've learned over the last three years since I left back with |
[437.32 --> 439.50] me and try and improve their setups. |
[439.50 --> 445.06] I imagine it's an opportunity for you to also maybe rethink your off-site backup because |
[445.06 --> 446.06] you're at these machines now. |
[446.18 --> 449.30] If you want to change something when it comes to any of that kind of stuff, this is kind |
[449.30 --> 449.96] of your opportunity. |
[450.12 --> 450.60] This is it. |
[450.76 --> 451.08] Exactly. |
[451.26 --> 451.42] Yeah. |
[451.56 --> 455.92] I mean, we will be coming back next summer because of my sister's wedding, but it's not |
[455.92 --> 456.40] often. |
[457.54 --> 458.28] Who knows? |
[458.34 --> 459.40] Maybe there'll be another COVID. |
[459.80 --> 460.80] God, I do hope not. |
[460.80 --> 463.76] But you just don't know when you're going to get these opportunities. |
[464.10 --> 470.32] So I've gone ahead and replaced the motherboard in my UK server that was six or seven years |
[470.32 --> 471.24] old when I left. |
[471.54 --> 473.96] So now it's knocking on the door of being 10 years old. |
[474.10 --> 474.44] Oh, yeah. |
[474.50 --> 481.10] It's a really old Supermicro 1366 LGA socket Xeon, I think. |
[481.52 --> 482.00] Good box, though. |
[482.02 --> 482.72] That's a good board. |
[483.08 --> 483.78] Oh, yeah, absolutely. |
[483.78 --> 491.02] But it ran IPMI through Java, so I had to have a special VM around just for that, which |
[491.02 --> 491.98] was a pain in the ass. |
[492.44 --> 492.52] Yep. |
[493.34 --> 494.92] So I've gone ahead and replaced that. |
[495.00 --> 499.72] I put a link in the show notes to the ASRock Rack motherboard that I've picked out. |
[500.52 --> 506.62] And I picked this one out for a few reasons, mostly because I actually already had an i5-8500 |
[506.62 --> 509.30] CPU lying around. |
[509.30 --> 514.68] And I had that because of all the experimentation I did in January with the GVTG stuff. |
[515.58 --> 518.26] So that's just been sat on a shelf gathering dust for a little while. |
[518.76 --> 521.54] I mean, this looks like a board that should last you a good number of years. |
[521.54 --> 524.32] And especially if it's one you already had, that's a major win. |
[524.42 --> 526.70] And I'm impressed that you've already got the work done. |
[526.90 --> 527.82] You got right to it. |
[528.68 --> 531.68] You know, I waited to decompress and de-jet lag for a couple of days. |
[532.00 --> 533.64] And then I got to swapping out the motherboard. |
[534.26 --> 535.92] And, you know, there's a few nice upgrades. |
[536.02 --> 537.34] I put an NVMe drive in there. |
[537.34 --> 539.86] The i5 that's in there obviously has QuickSync as well. |
[540.04 --> 544.96] So if there's any, you know, I use that server for a lot of TV streaming. |
[545.12 --> 549.62] So like when the Olympics were on, when the World Cup is going to be on next year, the |
[549.62 --> 550.90] Euros, all that kind of stuff. |
[551.00 --> 554.62] I watched the BBC coverage through Plex from my UK server. |
[555.12 --> 555.42] I see. |
[555.52 --> 555.84] I see. |
[556.26 --> 559.12] So you don't even have to pop in over WireGuard because you're using Plex. |
[559.22 --> 560.40] You can just bring up Plex. |
[560.78 --> 561.14] Correct. |
[561.34 --> 561.50] Yeah. |
[561.56 --> 562.54] Just for the TV. |
[562.54 --> 564.18] And it works really nicely. |
[564.36 --> 569.94] But the old Xeon, when it was transcoding, that content would suck down the juice, which, |
[570.26 --> 571.48] you know, it's not my electricity bill. |
