apalrd’s adventures

apalrd’s adventures is a personal homepage and blog where an engineer documents stories of engineering and technology. The author describes it as a corner of the internet for sharing projects created and in progress, with a primary focus on home automation, homelab, and virtualization, plus general building and making.

The site is organized around a blog for regular updates and separate project pages for long-term descriptions. Posts dig into specifics such as full disk encryption on Fedora with TPM2, Secure Boot, and LUKS key enrollment, often framed around solutions intended for a Linux-based business environment.

Beyond text, the author maintains YouTube and Twitch channels for video content and casual streams, and links out to Discord, Mastodon, Ko-fi, a wishlist, and sponsors. A resume page and a myip utility are also available from the menu.

Readers who want practical, experience-based write-ups on homelab security and virtualization will get the most from the blog, while project pages suit those tracking a build over time. Start with the tags to find a topic, then follow the linked videos for demonstrations. Overall, it is a compact, engineer-run resource rather than a commercial tutorial site.
