Here it is, though a little late this year, but it’s my reflection on the last year and goal setting for the next. It’s an annual tradition of mine, even if I don’t seem to religiously do it. There have been a few years I have missed doing this, but I promise I will try […]

Back in the beginning of September, I signed up for gig apps. Not that I needed the extra money, but because I wanted something else to do to bring in some additional income. I’ve had an Uber Driver account since 2017 but I knew I didn’t want to drive people again. I absolutely hated it.

Over the years my blog has lived at some sort of domain that was personal – travis-newton.com, travisnewton.net, etc. – and then I moved it to blog.nightfox.tech as I was using that as my domain. I’ve since decided that since it’s my personal blog, I’ll move it to my personal web space on our family

The other day, I was looking for information on the Loch Ness rollercoaster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Google was giving me results from Reddit, local news (or just major news sites in general), and the Busch Gardens websites. Besides that, it was also YouTube channels. That’s not what I was looking for. I was looking

Not in the sense of “I wrote a blog and now I’m an author” but “I wrote a book and now I am an author.” Yep, that’s right. I’m now a published author! Earlier in the year, I got the idea to create a book that would help people with cPanel. After all, running a
Recently, I decided that I needed to upgrade my home network from an old Sophos UTM 110/120 that I converted a few years ago to pfSense. First, I’ve decided to move on from pfSense. I have many reasons, but the first is that if enshittification was a company, Netgate would be the perfect definition. I’ve

Recently I’ve been debating about upgrading from my M1 Pro MacBook Pro to the M3 Pro. First, Apple has made some big improvements in the Apple Silicon line. The biggest being switching from 5 nanometer manufacturing to 3 nanometer. That doesn’t sound like a big deal, but consider this. That “small” jump allows the chip

What is “greedflation? Well it’s inflation but with greed. Ever since CEOs started cracking the whip and demand butts in seats in shitty cubicles, “inflation” has been up. But it’s not inflation like the media will have you believe. Instead, it’s large companies that had two years of low revenue trying to make up for

In my previous post, I talked a little about some of my goals for 2024. In this post, I’m going to expand more and probably add some. First thing’s first, I want to blog more. At least one blog post a week. That’s 52 total blog posts. Last year, I signed up to “Bring Back
Well this year I think I couldn’t have waited any longer to do my reflection on the year. This year was definitely an interesting year and it was better than the previous ones. From a business perspective, NodeSpace had the best year ever! We added a lot more dedicated server customers with Proxmox and that
