  • Dead Pages, Alpine, Docker, Cloud

    I’m having some Google indexing problems, with some traffic going to riceball.com, and some coming to technote.fyi. According to Search Console, I still have 367 riceball.com pages; in reality, I have maybe 40 pages. Some of these pages haven’t been crawled since the middle of 2018.

  • Update for June 18, 2019

    I’m moving the site over to technote.fyi, and will be converting this domain over to a rice ball / food / restaurant domain. Google doesn’t seem to consider the domain that much when indexing a site – this site comes up for software tech, but not for rice balls! Obviously, this domain would increase in…

Since I sell on Ebay, I have a ton of “inventory” that needed to be moved, sold, etc. I also moved all my computers. So I spent…

  • January 5, 2019 Update

    The holidays left me stuffed, and so busy that work became an afterthought. My friend also had some medical issues and I ended up being a driver for most of the month. I swear, driving takes a lot out of me, physically and mentally. There are only a couple updates this month.

  • December 18, 2018 Update

    This month, our “hobby” server took a big dump, and we said, “screw it, we need to install the ‘new’ server.” This “new” server is a few years old, but switching servers is such a huge pain in the ass that we avoided it.

    I came across this in the uploads. Missed it for a long time.  Should I start posting some other web shells I’ve collected?

  • How to Add a REST API to an Existing Django Project

    This is a note I wrote to myself about how to add Django REST Framework to an existing project. It’s in PDF format, for reading. I didn’t have the time to create a real tutorial that builds up the API, or produce a really useful API. The intention is just to outline what parts get…

  • Linux Nautilus Trash Folder Stopped Working

    The Nautilus Trash feature stopped working, so I could only delete a file completely, rather than move it to the trash.  Here’s what’s happening, and how to restore it.
