node // belfast · uk
Infrastructure, self-hosting and automation — built, broken and kept alive by one operator. This is the map.
Tailscale mesh across sites, exit nodes and a public HTTPS gateway. DNS filtered at the edge.
Multi-node Docker stack — a real server rack that happens to live at home.
Sensors, energy, cameras and climate stitched together and made to behave.
Media, vault, e-books and file share — owned, not rented.
Weather-fax, ADS-B and streaming radio pulled straight out of the air.
Nightly encrypted backups on a timer. Boring on purpose.
Printer and hardware repair by trade, infrastructure by obsession. Certified engineer work by day, ports and Python scripts by night. The tools change; the habit of taking things apart doesn't.
A few of these live behind the mesh and only answer to the right key. That's the point.
