Lit Up Statues At Griffiths Sculpture Park


We made it up their last Tuesday night. The view was amazing. I love the picture of (e:joe) taking pictures of us from the tower.

Getting there was a bit dramatic. Time warner switched our static IPs minutes before I was scheduled to leave. The. I had no monitor to access the server with. (e:joe) and I ended up having to carry to giant TV down to the basement to use as a monitor. Luckily we still made it in time.

Changing Author in Git History

In my series of boring computer posts. I was setting up my own gitlab clone when I needed to re-write some commit author logs.

Its actually pretty easy, I'd make sure you have a backup of your repo first.

git filter-branch --env-filter 'if [ $GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL = paul@hit-nxdomain.opendns.com ]; then GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=paulsidekick@gmail.com; fi; export GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL'


git filter-branch -f --env-filter 'if [ $GIT_AUTHOR_NAME = "paul" ]; then GIT_AUTHOR_NAME ="Visco, Paul"; fi; export GIT_AUTHOR_NAME'

Arduino Swipe Card Access Reader


I built this arduino based WiFi swipe card reader for work. The goal is to let surgeons swipe in and out of the operating room and have it set their pages to auto forward to the phone in the OR or back to their cell phone so that they don't need to consult their cell phones when scrubbed in.

Reading the I class HID cards was kind of tricky because these ones were 64 bit and I couldn't find any example description of the format the data was in. Now I need to get a chip programmer and try and transfer it to an even smaller format so that I can mass produce em.

The Ugliest Tree Infection I Ever Saw


This tree located slightly north from the North East side of the Summer and Ellwood intersection has the creepiest infection I have ever seen. It was hard to get a good picture because of the lighting but you can still tell how abnormal it is.

My New Certificate Authority

If you want a free SSL cert I can make one for you but the machines that access it will need to trust my certificate authority by accepting the following cert Then just send me the csr.

If you don't know what this means, then you don't need one. For my own reference later.

openssl x509 -req -in new_request.csr -CA /etc/pki/CA/certs/ca_estrip.biz.crt -CAkey /etc/pki/CA/private/ca_estrip.biz.key -CAcreateserial -out new_request.crt -days 3000

LVM - Moving empty space from one logical volume to another

I resized the logical volumes for the site VM on KVM to steal some size from home and add it to root. Its actually really simple. It was all able to be done while the server was online. Go LVM.

//unmount home
umount /home

//check file system
e2fsck -f /dev/vg_estrip/lv_home 35G

//reduce home to total size of 35G
lvreduce -L 35G /dev/vg_estrip/lv_home

//remount home and check files
mount /home

//extend root by adding 50GB
lvextend -L+50G /dev/vg_estrip/lv_root

//resize fs to take up the 50GB
resize2fs /dev/vg_estrip/lv_root

KCafe - Korean Tacos


The KCafe at 546 Niagara Falls Blvd in Tonawanda had some delicious Korean Tacos. They even have vegetarian ones. I am posting the menu because I couldn't find it online. I would totally suggest checking it out.

They also have some really interesting burgers with half beef and half bacon in the patty and grilled cheese sandwiches with lots of toppings. (e:xandra) had a pulled pork grilled cheese with garlic bread toast as the bread and bacon in top. The crispy paramsaen cheese coated? fries were also great with Korean hot sauce.
