Andrew WilliamsI've installed two new nodes into my Kubernetes cluster, and they've both got WiFi cards installed in them. I should take out the cards and antenna and make use of the slot for something better, but, I was thinking if anything interesting could be done with them?<a href="https://social.doofnet.uk/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a>

McTwistI might not have mentioned that I am planning to self-host my mail.I currently have one server located in my apartment. Bought for cheap a public IP. ISP is <a href="https://social.accum.se/tags/bahnhof" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bahnhof</a>. I've read about all the security measures one need to take, but the issue is whether to host it will work or not at all. I've seen both those that host on a residental line, and also those that tells me it's not going to work.Anyone want to chip in their experience regarding this?<a href="https://social.accum.se/tags/selfhost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhost</a> <a href="https://social.accum.se/tags/email" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#email</a> <a href="https://social.accum.se/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a>

TechnoTimIt’s server upgrade day! It’s not just about better specs or hardware, it’s about rethinking how everything fits together. Every upgrade challenges assumptions I made months (or years) ago and pushes me to make smarter choices that will (hopefully) last a few years.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a>

💓 EV∆ ∆ΠΠ∆ 💓🎶 please, oooh please, just tell me no.. 🎶It's 2am and I just want one thing a strong, handsome, sexy pair of SFP+ in a 10G ethernet switch, RISC-V cores mod'able, jtag'able, RTOS'able, oooh yes... so... in all seriousness, there have been lustful hardware-acquisition eyes on this pretty little design since its pre-release marketing materials hit the English speaking OSS internet, and have been watching from afar as its reviews came through, patiently.

ItzTrainStarted my distributed file system journey with <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/moosefs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#moosefs</a> . Been rock solid. Then I found <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/seaweedfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#seaweedfs</a> and it comes with a build in s3 gateway, It's built in go.. Seems simple enough to give it a try in the <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#homelab</a> . Have we lost the ability to write documentation..just code! . 2 hours later. I have 7 terminal tabs open all running a 4 specific process to get this thing working.. and its still not working! 😂. Documentation says. Just run ./this_fucking_command. Then run ./this_fucking_command and the thing is up.. simple. <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/selfhosted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosted</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/selfhosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfhosting</a>

Eli Roberson (he/him)I think I need to just get an HP EliteDesk small form factor PC and start hosting more things. $200-300 for a used one and buying new RAM and drives. Mostly driven by BitBucket reducing total storage limits. A standard plan is $16.50 a month just for me. LinkWarden cloud is $3 a month. If I *just* hosted those two things (ForgeJo for Git), I break even in 11-15 months. But have full control and as many users as I need.Plus ability to host other things useful things.<a href="https://genomic.social/tags/SelfHost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SelfHost</a> <a href="https://genomic.social/tags/HomeLab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HomeLab</a>
