Photos, stories, and news from Graham Miln.
Charroux
We visited Charroux with visiting family. The small hilltop village had been recommended to us. Certainly pretty but maybe better in the summer months, than the winter. The small village was quiet with the few other tourists rugged up.
Medieval Moulins
Moulins is the administrative centre of our region. The city is home to the Préfecture de l’Allier and thus a city we have had to visit a few times.
Creating the Signpost Application and Subscriptions
Miln Signpost is the strangest macOS application I have written. Strange because it provides something I find magical and because it seems unlikely to find a waiting audience.
Change in Domain Registrars
I manage a handful of domain names. Regrettably I had to move them to a new domain registrar. My former registrar had succumbed to temptation and had begun messing around.
Christmas at Home
This will be our first year celebrating Christmas in our new home. The transition from city to country continues to be the most dramatic lifestyle shift I have known.
VoIP with Asterisk on Synology via Docker
Having successfully banished our need for a physical phone from upstairs, everything changed. My Raspberry Pi is being repurposed for a family member and I now have a Synology DiskStation.
Snow and Warmth
For the first time in years, we watched snow falling while feeling warm.
Welcoming Our First Guests
We enjoyed having our first visitors to stay. It was an opportunity to see if the house design worked with guests, it did, and to take numerous photos, I did.
Making the Phone Vanish - Telephone Calls via an HT-503 and Raspberry Pi
A guide to setting up a landline, an HT-503, and Raspberry Pi for an incredible home telephone system.
Internet At Home Without a Phone Line
Our house move is nearly upon us and the telecom line has yet to be installed. Rather than panic, I set up a wireless network backed by a 4G mobile/cellular data connection.
