We're Moving Back to our Roots

·545 words·3 mins

Hey, hi, how are ya?

I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here (almost a year). Honestly, I’ve been doing a lot of self reflection and been focusing on getting both my body and mind in a better place It’s been a long journey and one that I am going to have to keep focusing on for a while.

Some Stats
#

So I know that probably most people reading this don’t care a whole lot but I wanted to share that from Jan 31, 2025 I’m down roughly 50lbs all just with the gym and some extra walking… and basically changing they way I look at food…

Whats this post about
#

I know you’re probably tired of hearing about me… So here it goes. I’ve moved all I.T. Bible infrastructure (with an exception) back to my house for those of you who remember, that’s how it was back in the early days. So for you really nothing has changed. For me, it’s saving about $100/month in hosting costs. We’re still behind CloudFlare but that’s mainly just to keep the chance of DDoS down and GitHub for a central repository for this website.

Whats next for I.T. Bible
#

Well, I don’t really know. This is something that I’ve wanted to do for so many years I don’t want to shut it all down, plus I think there is still useful information here for those looking into an I.T. career or to start their HomeLab. You may not know this but for so long I worked on ways to grow this community, and nothing really worked as well as I had hoped. I spent a lot of time during my kids younger years trying to grow, we’re talking like 60+ hours a week on top of my day-job and I think that partially burt me out.

I will keep this blog and the community up as long as I can and have the hardware to do so but until there is more community around it I don’t think I can make this my focus anymore.

One thing I still want to implement is the comment section, I just haven’t gotten that far.

I do also still love technology, however I’m not super thrilled in the way people are using it these days, I think it’s all good and there are ways for it to help us but I think most people are just losing the plot a little… Anyways time to hop off my soapbox.

What can you do to help
#

Well, really just use the platforms we have built here. The forums are a great resource for people and I think it is a good place to share information. If you want to post more content, I’ve set this website up so that you can help collaborate it’s somewhat of a manual process on my end still because I didn’t want to waste time setting up something people wouldn’t use.

One thing I want to do is keep both places free in both of ads and money.

TLDR
#

I lost 50lbs, I hate the way people are using AI, we don’t want your money, and you can help by collaborating on the forums or via our new website.
