Hobbies Wednesday - what have you done this week?

Actually making progress on getting some minis painted. I had an unsuccessful attempt at making a pearlescent insect wing and got glitter everywhere. Going to try a different method this week. Otherwise, the sword bandits, burning undead, and hives are ready for varnishing and the komuso monks and fire wizards are coming along. My painting is adequate, so they're nothing that's going to win contests, but I'm glad to have more things painted when my friends gather to play.

Made a fun little spiked leather bracelet

I've been working on a home media server setup with all of my copied physical disks. I just got the backup ISP, and am working to get remote access to that specific server.

If anybody wants to do this, Jellyfin is a free source for a media server.

Finally resolved an issue with Tailscale and DNS. Unbound on my VPS kept serving records too slowly from a distant (~200ms) upstream DNS server, Tailscale would return SERVFAIL then iOS/macOS would cache it for a long time.

I’m not sure how it’s fixed but simply swapping out Unbound with Blocky solved the problem.
