I didn’t realise how close I lived to the Toast Rack when I drove past it on my way home one day.

\n

I decided to go for a walk one morning and check it out. The site is secured so you can’t really get close to it unfortunately. Would love to have a look around.

Craig has been working on creating his vision of the latest Genius Division website over the last week.

\n

He’s created a site that is absolutely bonkers and it sums him up as a person perfectly.

\n
\n \"Screenshot\n \n
\n

It’s full of interactivity, easter eggs and even games.

\n

Check it out: Genius Division

Today I have switch my home network to Unifi. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while as we have one at work and I admire the hardware and software of the devices.

\n

We have an Express 7 at work that manages the network in our office and we also have a VPN on there so we can lock servers down to our IP address.

\n

I finally bit the bullet and got a UDR7 for my office in the attic and a U7 Lite access point for the ground floor.

\n
\n \"Unifi\n
The UDR7 sat next to my two home servers
\n
\n

Set up was super simple using the Unifi app on iOS and I was up and running within 30 minutes. I used the same WIfi SSID and password so everything just connected. I added the U7 Lite access point downstairs and clicked adopt in the system and that was it.

\n

The access point is powered over ethernet as well so there’s less wiring in the living room. I mentioned to Kelly that we could mount it on the ceiling but as expected she didn’t seem keen.

\n

I miscounted how many ports I needed on the router and thought I’d get away with not having an additional network switch but unfortunately we have to keep it.

\n

The FritzBox that my ISP provided is confined to a box along with the Deco Mesh network I was using.

\n

Speed tests so far are much faster than before the switch so really happy with it. I’ve already started looking at Unifi cameras.

I’ve been updating the Uses page on my main website with all the cameras and lenses that I’ve owned over the years.

I use Immich as my main photo storage which has allowed me to search using the camera model or lens model and compile a list.

There’s quite a few over the last ten years.

This was one of the dryer days of our trip. We parked near the top and then walked down the seemingly never ending amount of stairs.

When we got to the bottom we saw a sign saying that only cash was accepted so we were a bit gutted but decided to see how far we could get. Luckily, they did accept card so managed to get in and have a look around.
