expect wobbly uptime on libreboot.org today, or at least the next few hours from now, 12:08 UK time, 1 January 2023:
I'm messing with routing tables, on the L2TP tunnel router that hosts libreboot.org
I'm experimenting with redundant internet for libreboot.org. I'm making it so that it reliably re-routes all traffic via another internet, when the main one goes down.
iproute2 is a bit fiddly

As Croatia is joining the Eurozone, Liberapay is, for the first time, dropping support for a currency.
- The Croatian Kuna (HRK) has now disappeared from donation forms.
- All existing donations and scheduled payments in that currency have been converted to the Euro.
- All accounts which had the Kuna as their main currency have been switched to the Euro.
Congratulations to Croatia, and happy new year to everyone! 🥳

My grandmother lived through the Blitz and war profoundly affected her family.
She became a lifelong peace advocate and pro-European, believing integration made such wars less likely.
I wrote about her for our series marking Ireland's 50 years in the EU. https://www.irishtimes.com/life-style/people/2022/12/31/life-of-a-european-my-grandmother-lived-through-the-blitz-becoming-a-lifelong-advocate-for-peace/
