About Random Bytes

Welcome to Random Bytes by me, Alistair Young - hacker, sysadmin, maker, poker of technical stuff.

This is the place where I post my notes on things technical. Expect an eclectic mass of bits and pieces relating to Windows, Linux, WSL (and my fairly popular systemd-on-WSL product, genie), home automation (using Home Assistant, node-red, and other technologies), electronics, 3D printing (using the Creality Ender 5 Plus), and whatever else I happen to get up to.
