Keto Kickin' Choffle


Alight, first recipe on the blog... If you've had a chance to reach the "About" section, you will have seen that, rather than spinning up multiple blogs, I'm just going to combine my passions for tech, food, health, and music into this one space. If you're not a fan, then too bad. I really just don't want to manage more than one blog.... With that, here goes nothing...

So I recently came across the choffle. This is a really great, and fast to make replacement for buns. I'm also a huge fan of spicy foods. Well, I got the great idea to combine the heat with the choffle. And let me tell you, it turned out really good. I like to use this for a bun replacement when I'm in the mood for that extra kick, but not the extra toppings. Why? Because the extra toppings are now combined in the choffle. Thus removing the need for the additional toppings on my burgers. Enjoy.

  2. Add Jalapeno, almond flour, and crushed pork rinds. Mix until well combined.
  3. Stir in the cheese and mix until everything is well combined.
  4. If you're using the mini waffle iron, place half of the mixture in it.
  5. Cook for 3.5 minutes.
  6. Remove the first one and repeat for the second choffle.
  7. These work great as buns for a pulled pork or hamburger. Or just eat straight up!

Using Python for GPG/PGP File Encryption - Part 1

So, this will be the start of a series that will build a python script for GPG/PGP file encryption. In this post, we'll look at installing gnupg for python and using python to setup the keystore, create a private key, exporting the associated public key, and importing a public key. Now everything done here can be done with simple gnupg commands, but learning how to do this with python will help in understanding the script we'll be building to complete file encryption. I will be covering non-python gnupg commands in a future post. Additionally, the folks at the python-gnupg site over at pythonhosted.org have done a really great job at documenting everything (link to their site at the bottom). The stuff I'll be going over will be more of a start-to-finish for anyone that may get lost in the muck of doing stuff with python. Full Disclosure #1: Any key identifier throughout the series of posts is FICTITIOUS and DOES NOT represent any real key, either associated with myself or...

Windows Server 2008: Log on as batch job

From time to time, I have to set up some scheduled tasks that required a dedicated account to run. And when doing so, I'll usually forget that the dedicated account usually isn't given any more permissions than what it needs to complete the task at hand. So, after setting up the task, Windows will usually yell at me and say "The account needs batch job rights". So here's how to grant batch job permissions on your server. Go to your start menu, and start searching for Local Security Policy In the left pane of the MMC that opens up, expand Local Policies, and highlight User Rights Assignment. Now, in the left right pane, locate "Log on as a batch job" and double click it. In the properties window that opens up, add the user or group that needs this permission. I find that if you have multiple service accounts running different tasks on the same server, it's easier to just add a group verses the individual a...

Replacing rsyslog with syslog-ng on RHEL 6.5

So...I had a piece of monitoring software that didn't play nice with the RHEL default rsyslog for log collection. The software was developed to only work with syslog-ng. I'll be going over the steps that I took, that worked for me, in replacing rsyslog with syslog-ng. I would imagine that these same steps should work for any Linux system similar to RHEL (Fedora, CentOS, etc.). For others (like Debein based distributions), I would need to look into that (coming in a future update to this post). First, remove rsyslog. You will need to keep the dependencies as they will be needed for syslog-ng: sudo rpm -e --nodeps rsyslog Next we will need to add the EPEL repository (more info can be found HERE ): wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm sudo rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.rpm sudo yum repolist That last command will list all the installed repositories. You are simply verifying that the EPEL package has been installed. Now that we fi...
