Did you know the hoomans have wet food and warms?

First thing I learned in a video course was setting a spending budget for your account. I set a $10/month limit and never broke it in 6 years.

My actual issue is I need approval to install anything on any server. This might get approved since it’s MS though! Thanks.

I’ve recently started administering windows headless. PowerShell over SSH.

Don’t have this problem on windows server!

It doesn’t even have a terminal text editor

I have to install nano or use powershell commands through hoops of fire just to edit a line in a file.

Or download the file via scp, edit and reupload.

Pure Insanity.

I remember people thinking he was crazy when he first stepped into the role and was swaying and shit.

The balls it took to fully immerse yourself like that. Paid off in spades.

Johnny Depp fucking carries that franchise.

He nailed Jack sparrow so damn hard I can’t picture anyone else in that role. It sets the pace of the movie too.

I have a peer that manages his father’s IT needs.

He setup loads of server stuff there with an IPSEC tunnel to home so he does cross backup back between the sites. He’ll setup something like a game server at the office on a VM mapped to an obscure port then a registered domain so the family can game together. Fun stuff.

He doesn’t charge his dad for IT needs. They just expense all the server stuff to the business along with a secure location (building has proper physical security) with managed AC for his heavier 24/7 server needs. He can also order decent gear for the rack.

Damn. Ethernet is indeed your bottleneck there. I love your rack but I’d go more for a higher storage configuration.

With B2 offsite backup.

Shopping aliexpress most are 2.5 drives. I get that they’re lower power but 3.5 drives offer much more storage…

I’m most impressed by the printed rackmount SFF mounts. Great idea.

This specifically depends on what you want to run.

I’d say grab any unused PC in your home or off the street and it’ll work. Raspberry Pi are good for low wattage so it’s not expensive to run 24/7/365.

The electricity savings would pay for itself over time vs a 10 year old random desktop.

Why not use the old one with firefox ESR?

Yeah with that win10 EOL there’s loads of refurbs out there for cheap.

This is why I’m using a refurbished mini PC as my home server. Lower wattage for constant uptime at home. Also very quiet.

If you rip the DVD as a movie could you have directors commentary as a audio track?

What about the extras as a season? Or single merged movie with chapters?

Fantastic question

Octoprint if you own a 3d printer

Yeah I miss DVD bonuses like directors commentary, cut scenes, bloopers and alternate scenes.
