I backed up the MySQL database of WordPress and then updated to 6.9 version of WordPress,then updated the OS patches which were quite a few including going to the latest kernel version on Rocky Linux 9.
I also updated my other Rocky Linux and Fedora Linux servers all except my primary Shoutcast/Icecast relay server. That’s several Rocky 9.x, Rocky 8.x and Fedora 41.
Logged into an old W2012 server trial version I only boot up within my Linux desktop that is currently at Fedora 42 in QEMU/KVM so I can run ILO to the old G7 bl460 blade server. After I’m done I shutdown that W2012 instance. That Bl460 g7 runs an instance of Zoneminder and PlexServer.

Well the Windows 2019 server took multiple reboots plus takes 5 times as long to boot since it physical server versus a VM like my Fedora Linux music Relay server.
Back up and running some Gumbo mixes from Snakeice’s House of Beats with artists like Miles Davis and Robert Glasper, Stylistics, Toni Braxton, ACDC, Run DMC, Green Day, Sweet Sensation ….

Hate interrupting the musical flow I have set for this breezy Saturday at least here in California but I need to update my music servers of W2019 and my Fedora Linux music relay servers.
In the midst of some a nice mixed genre Saturday mix with jazz, R&B, Rock, Hip-Hop, Reggae even Country from all eras so its not a boring mix of one genre. Come back and I have mixed in some songs we haven’t heard in my mix in a while long with some of my favorites and new music.
Now its a race to see what servers reboot faster my Linux relay VMs or my physical W2019 server. The Linux relay server always win but you never know!

I set up some songs with a list of chill with artists like Sly Johnson, Samuelle, Ellie Goulding, Coco Jones with some upbeat sets with artists like Jagged Edge, Nickelback, with chill like Ice Cube, LL Cool J. Even jazzing it up artists like Roy Hargrove and Nathan Mitchell.
An all around sounding Saturday of music.

Weeds and some herbs were in need of trimming for my garden to make room for other vegetables. Mint and pineapple sage needed to be trimmed back to make room for squash and cucumbers where I had the 3 sisters of beans, corn and squash earlier.
I also elevated the squash and cucumber vines for more separation.
I want to be a bit more ready when I trim back plants in my garden to get them dehydrated right away. I wasn’t ready with prior batches of mint and rosemary when trimming them back.
Now the dehydrator has space on the cabinet down from the top of the cabinet, cleaned and ready to be utilized!
I put the pineapple sage on the bottom and the mint on top.

I had a nice set setup for a wild late Friday night and was in the midst of that when everything went down but I still have several hours setup and then we have my select scripts pulling from my select pools of music.
