QOTW: What tech projects are you undertaking during lockdown?

[rich835]

Weekdays haven't changed a lot for me, as I'm working from home, which I can do just as well as if I was in the office.
Now that I don't have to spend 2+ hours a day travelling, it does mean I can find time to exercise, so that's a plus point!

I fixed a broken sink plug hole last weekend, and am preparing to start decorating over the coming weekends.
Hobby wise, I've re-housed one of my PC's and have been gaming. Half-Life Alyx is good, but I can't play it for more than an hour at a time without getting a headache. I am rather enjoying Doom Eternal though! Also grinding in Elite Dangerous to get my in-game credits up, ready for the next patch feature release.

Also trying to keep the wife entertained, so I have to play on the Wii sometimes and also talk to her on occaision...

As my contract is about to expire. Certified Kubernetes Admin Exam and probably AWS Security Specialist course. Need MOAR bits of paper!

Filled the final slot in the NAS to give a bit more room for entertainment for the kids.
New server! The old one no longer has the horsepower to cope with the number of VMs, and I've recently switched to Plex and many want to consider sharing the library outside the house, so will need some transcoding. Will be doing a case-swap once I've got the new one assembled and tested. Looking forward to having a play with IMPI, the old MB didn't have it. The new board has 4 LAN ports, so also looking forward to playing with NIC teaming to see what gives best performance.

Oh, and I grew a beard, but had to get rid of it because it was too annoying. Just as the family was getting used to it!
