Upgraded my Linux workstation to increase performance by optimizing thermals through increased airflow, using the XTIA C-Zone 30mm extender v2.0 and a dedicated heatsink for the back-mounted NVMe SSD.

Insights on running a Home Area Network (HAN) nearly completely on open source software, including configurations and metrics.

After being back on Linux on my desktop, I decided to make 2022 the year of Linux on the Phone. Not only did I fully replace my iPhone with a privacy-focused smartphone, I also got my toes wet with an actual Linux phone:
