Finally, 146 uninterrupted days of solid uptime, I’ve switched the site from the Pi 5 over to a Lenovo Tiny PC. Upcoming post about my new setup, involving NGINX and Alpine. I’ve been an Apache HTTPD user since 2005, but the times they are-a changing… and I think I’ve got some interesting goodies to share. Stay tuned.
In the meanwhile, if some things don’t work or are partially missing, it is because changing servers is like pulling teeth… you kind of just need to yank and get it over with.
Feel free to report via the “Forum” with bugs… I had to botch up the server stats to get it working on Alpine/NGINX because several things were a bit different. It is half done… behold, the incredibly low memory footprint of the new setup! Just 70MB!
That picture is of the PiFrame, Pi Zero 2 powered clock… it uses scripts running on my webserver — which I’d forgotten to port over to the new VM!!
Anyways, coming soon is a write up about moving to NGINX/Alpine, and the new “Big Digits” code for the PiFrame, see the picture?
