Coffee

Sumatra Single-Origin - French Press:
Dark roast, earthy and herbal with a smooth mouthfeel.

Labs

hw.optional.arm.FEAT_BF16: 1
Continuing deep dive into OpenBSD and NetBSD. I have used FreeBSD for many years, but only briefly looked at alternatives. NetBSD is currently my favorite, I really like how minimal it starts, yet just works. I have a desktop installed and I am actively using it.

Work

Deploying RHEL9. I have to create custom iso files with a kickstart file within our environment and I discovered the mkksiso command within the Lorax package. This makes creating iso files with a kickstart file so easy, no more dumping the iso contents and modifying configuration files.

Creative

Brushing up on my Python skills and experimenting with Rust heavily these days.

Fun

I have had about three golf lessons. The last worked on my midswing and I feel like I made some good progress toward learning how to properly swing a golf club.

Health

Consistency is the word I would continue to use. I am running consistently, but would like to increase this a bit more. I have now been strength training for about a month consistently at least 5 days a week. I still feel like this needs some tweaking as far as exercise selection and my goals. I am maintaining my 20lb weight loss, but would like to lose at least another 10-20lbs. Diet choices have been solid, I have had a bit too much alcohol lately which have hindered weight loss.
