Set ownership of all #CyberPanel users’ web folders
The last time I wrote about this, I was a VestaCP user. I've since upgraded my VPS to CyberPanel, which I'll discuss in a future post. Either way, I *STILL* work on my websites as a root user on my VPS. When I copy over WordPress or other files they retain root...
Moving my data away from #bigdata and to #Nextcloud

Future Fooded: Soylent, Week 1
I've done it. I've taken the Soylent plunge. I've opted for a 3 shake a day, 1200 kcal diet. I'm doing this to lose weight and alleviate stomach issues related to IBS. Why Soylent? Well, I've been following it off and on for quite some time, before it even became a...

Use Cleverness To-Do List to keep track of posts you want to procrastinate writing #wordpress #plugin
