I’ve added two new picture sets to my gallery. First is a set of shots from when Rachael and I previewed our future wedding location at the Crystal Rose on lookout mountain. The other album is a set of pictures from our engagement party this past Saturday. Check ‘em out if you’re interested. Cheers!
I’m finally happy with my HTPC project. I’ve got all my movies, videos, pictures, and music on the 1.5TB hardware RAID5 that I setup (3x 750gb WD Caviar Blacks). I can watch, record, and timeshift TV. It’s working great! I’m actually quite happy with Windows 7 (surprisingly). Only a few problems remain…
I’ve pointed a few people at it already, but it hasn’t been ‘official’ until now. My image gallery is finally up (click that link or the link on the right side of the page). For those of you interested, it uses the Gallery 2 PHP image gallery application. I currently have some more of my recent sets of pictures from hikes and during my SIParCS internship at NCAR in Boulder. I have a decent backlog of other older pictures I’ll be adding to the gallery soon as well as new pictures I take from the vacations I have planned in the near future.
The pictures on the site have unavailable for a while now. I use Amazon S3 for image hosting as my server’s connection is far from sufficient. I’ve setup a CNAME DNS record for files.lamielle.net to point to the proper Amazon domain. However, I’m having problems with this since I’m using 3 dynamic DNS services for redundancy. The two redundant services are just ’secondary nameservers’ of the primary, this uses AXFR DNS record transfers. For some reason the transfers aren’t working as they should and DNS queries to files.lamielle.net are resoving to lamielle.net, not the proper Amazon domain.
Anyway, I’m working on it. As soon as I get things figured out I’ll have a few nice posts to throw up (one is almost ready as it is): bouldering, 4th of july, hiking, etc. Stay tuned!
