That’s wild. I’m surprised I never heard of this. Straight up malware.

Killin is my business, ladies! And BIZ NESS IS GOOD!

Makes sense, thanks. Yeah idk about usb serial over Ethernet, it’s an interesting idea but I wouldn’t want to introduce more moving parts (and/or latency) to the network.

Proxmox is going to be a lot easier to pick up if you’re coming from vmware. Kubernetes is a beast with a considerable learning curve so if you’re not familiar with it already then I wouldn’t recommend it for a lab environment (unless the goal is specifically to learn it).

I’ve migrated most of my lab from a mess of proxmox lxcs over to k3s (I use k8s at work), except for home assistant. I’ve been back and forth on that one. I really like being able to back up the entire vm before running updates or whatever. Could you use a node selector to force zwave or zigbee or whatever to run on the node that has the usb device? Or is it still a pain in the ass that way cause you have to know the path on the specific host… I haven’t tried that yet.

I went down a rabbit hole of shower head research recently and ended up with a Hammerhead. Been pretty happy with it.

Oh weird I thought that icon was just for highlighting requests to my backend

True yeah. Downtime has gotta be especially problematic for fleet usage.

I feel like I usually hear this in the context of bodywork or collision repair, which is just as likely as any other car to be needed. Like the lead time on replacement body panels is months long because no dealers so sucks if you get in a wreck. That may have changed since however many years ago though.

Makes it easier to not eat that trash.

We’ve had a doozy of a day!

Rack mounting non-rack-mount gear always seemed like an interesting application to me. Raspberry pis, tiny lenovos, network gear, etc.

Might have been both. I remember ATT at the time calling HSPA+ “4G” then calling the actual thing “4G LTE”

I feel like most of the sites I’ve seen password limits like this on are financial in nature, where it’s all theatrics - the appearance of security takes precedence over (and in some cases comes at the expense of) actual security.

Seems to be only if you’re on a recommendation based playlist like discover weekly or release radar

I’m just annoyed that it replaces the repeat and shuffle buttons, but only sometimes.

There are two types of languages: ones people bitch about, and ones no one uses

Oooh, I assumed a 3u shelf would have bigger fans, but I just realized I never actually saw any fans inside that thing. Reading more about it now, apparently it has some kind of nonstandard squirrel cage fans? Damn.

R730 is a dual socket server right? I would expect a fair amount of heat and power consumption from that just for storage. I’d definitely expect less heat from a shelf cause it’s only power+disks, no cpu(s). I’ve been looking for a way to separate out my storage too, with similar concerns. Maybe add power consumption too. I also want something that can fit in a shallow rack. I’d just get a synology if they weren’t so expensive.

Anyway, I found the EMC KTN-STL3 which is a 3u 15 bay disk shelf. They are dirt cheap and all over ebay. Was thinking about pairing that with a r230 or something. I think both units have a relatively low idle power usage. Don’t know about noise, everything you read is very subjective, so it’s hard to tell without just getting one. I like the r230 cause it has 2 pcie slots for hba + 10gbe nic. But if you don’t care about that or have something else already, there are lots of other options.

It’s javascript. We’ll have gone through 275,760 new datetime libraries before then, it’ll be fine.
