Husband to an amazing wife and two adorable children. This web site covers many projects from WordPress and LAMP components. This will walk you through installing all the components to build your own web server. It explains how to install multiple virtual hosts. I work through calculus solutions. It covers my 40+ years of building amazing gaming rigs and networks.

This site will take you on the 40 year journey into being an engineer
They call me SCSIraidGURU. I have my Bachelor of Electrical Engineering degree from University of Detroit Mercy class of 1996 with knowledge of cyber security and network engineering. I moved my Arduino, Electrical Engineering and Raspberry Pi projects to STEM. This web site covers WordPress and LAMP component configuration and installation. How to build your own WordPress server to host websites like I have. Linux issues I ran into on my servers. This site covers my life at work. It covers the Why and How. Why I do things? How and did them? It covers Fortinet firewalls and wireless access points (WAPs). Programming languages and projects I have done. How I was able to get VMWare 6 to work. All the highend gaming rigs I built over the years. All the calculus solutions I solved. Being an engineer means you want to be inquisitive and explore. The latest project is building our children their own Java and Bedrock Mindcraft Servers. They both have their own Ubuntu workstation.
My late father always said the easy road is never the right road to take.
Knowledge requires effort and time to gain.
From Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium:
Unlikely adventures require unlikely tools.
Your life is an occasion, Rise to it!
From Babylon 5
Never fear answers, only fear running out of questions.
I believe it is better to know than be ignorant.
I believe it is better to tell the truth than lie.
I believe it is better to be free than be a slave.
My mentor said to be called an engineer you need three things?”
1.) You needed a Bachelor’s degree in Computer or Electrical Engineering.
2.) Experience and the education into the future. We continue our education beyond our Bachelor’s degree. We research new technology to better serve the corporation’s needs. We bring new ideas to the table.
3.) Engineers bring solutions not problems to management.
