𝅘𝅥𝅯 My journey into technology started with earnings from my fourbouys paper round. with the help of my grandfather and paperound I bought a Mesh Computers next gen originally with a 40GB hard drive, 1.4ghz CPU costing £1,440 new. That was the only machine I would buy outright as I built everything else myself as you would expect from an Electronic Engineering HND student who has done 4 years of a Computer science study. Whilst studying for an HND in Electronic Engineering whilst spending my breaks in the colleges library computer lab I realised I had a knack and enthusiasm for computer tech. 𝅘𝅥𝅯 ......
in the attic Lab I had an 8 way VGA splitter a very cool piece of kit even with crts it looked awesome. from left to right two huge cardboard boxes used to deliver 2/8 17inch DEll CRT monitors, HP4000N with duplux unit. www.lan (Apache HTTPD on debian Linux ), www2.lan (apache HTTPD on CentOs Linux), spare Beige chassis underneath Desk, 4 port KVM placed just beneath new widescreen dell 17inch (I think) TFT (Thin Film Transistor) screen, dev.lan ubuntu Linux box used for java development using netbeans JDK j2ee tomcat(the lnux with the best specced hardware of the machines shown here, q6600 intel (quad CPU, this was a super CPU and still lives toda=y just not used just now) 8GB of RAM at least one 1TB Root Partition) machine was also used for ripping DVD's to avi or mp4 using ogmrip. also used for, next of the black chassis is the db1.lan (mysql server OpenSuse Linux), the big chassis at the end was the original home for the Abit BP6 motherboard that I recently posted shared a video about on my Facebook page. very cool Motherboard. the next desk housed the NAS.lan and ftp.lan, can't remember which linux Distro was used but might have been Debian or some flavour of Debian. used MDAM for software raid 5 using 4 * 1TB in a nice big ANTEC chassis also ran ProFTP to host FTP. there was a epson inkjet just in case. at the bottom is a 16 way network switch in case I needed more. I would often plug laptop into this when I needed to check laptop network card.

Alot of people have told me to change the website background to have it look more corporate but sioux falls is where i got married. Sioux falls through the winter months is light up and looks awesome. To see how it looks as part of heading look at landing page #3. You can find my nodejs webserver app.js on port 3200. My J2EE dev Examples are currently available on port 8282 with the stable/production on port 8080. currently have a login servlet for with mysql backend. I also use php as frontends for the mysql backend. Two hosts serve the Tomcat and HTTPD servers one is debian the other Linux Mint (ubuntu) load balanced with haproxy. ATS has been hampering my efforts to get a job on the various job sites by not being able to read through Columns in the various files has left employers and their agents to think I have zero skills. I didn't originally intend to host site with mysql backend as I thought for a site with no submitted info/data and just hosting my thoughts/Cv and other streamed content that I wouldn't need a ssl cert but soon discovered that since I last hosted my own site firefox has made ssl/TLS Certs a requirement. With my various efforts at creating a self signed certifacates not working or not being accepted by hiring managers work proxies I have settled on using lets encrypt. I have certs for mail.skdj.co.uk skdj.co.uk www.skdj.co.uk khaleeq.skdj.co.uk (placeholder for hosting friends Website) and cameron.skdj.co.uk which is a side project I started when I thought I might need to negotiate for my next car bill. Using httrack I was able to download their rather old website found here and modernised the code adding some CSS and Dynamic Javascript plus a bosch favicon. I changed the Heading to Charles Wright(the font used for Licence Plates) If I ever need to negotiate car bill I have an ACE in my back pocket and will ask them what if any other features they would like added. with any luck Hiring managers won't automatically just discard my job applications ......this landing page is designed to showcase modern css styles and with a timeline style. back in my RGU years I had a greyscale Firefox Tshirt as well as a "There is no place like 127.0.0.1" shirt, "select * from users where Clue > 0:
0 rows returned⁸;" shirt, and a no, I will not fix your computer

I'm going to upload pictures of my computer setup back in my CS student days as I believe these may help me secure a job in I as it shows multiple machine staging with both 4 port and 2 port KVMs. Software raids, laser and Inkjets printers. ...... in the attic Lab I had an 8 way VGA splitter a very cool piece of kit even with crts it looked awesome, when I had a chance I would go to the nearest Linux user Group and kept up to date with the group via the IRC back when freenode was the defacto node host. 𝅘𝅥𝅯
