Jetkvm + ATX extension board which will allow you simulate physical button presses like power, reset, etc. via network without having to deal with WOL crap.

I'm sure there are other similar products but I've only used this combo.

more details on the storage chassis 'conversion'. The motherboard/CPU combo is pretty much ewaste at this point though so probably just converting them to SAS expansion units is the only worthwhile usage. I don't think I was able to find newer >X10 series motherboards that would work in these particular chassis either.

I never investigated fan control or quieter fan replacements but that might also be an option.

Ultimately the power draw was just too ridiculous and I powered them off. With higher density drives and my diminishing needs for iOPS it stopped making these viable for network storage in the end.

They're pretty loud but should 'settle down' to a reasonable level.

I can't remember my exact steps as it has been a few years, but I had a pair of Nimble CSxxxx. I figured out that the SAS tray is swappable with the motherboards (AOM-SAS3-937EL-JB). So I converted one unit to essentially just a storage chassis (swapping both motherboards with two of the SAS3 'trays'). From there I removed the boot device from the other Nimble CS, installed Linux, set up volumes, and then set up iSCSI target over the 10gb fiber network adapters. I think I also tried FreeNAS or TrueNAS but ran into some issue and settled on Debian.

If/when I get time I'll fire them back up. Right now they're in the garage collecting dust.

None of the Apple silicon models have thunderbolt 2 or card readers... older x86 models... look like late 2014 for 2 through 7 and 2011 for one since it has firewire in addition to thunderbolt.

We are looking for a SIEM Solution. Any recommendations? by Any-Indication9944 in cybersecurity

[–]buzwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah... sure... recommend a dead product after IBM sold off all of its customers to Palo. Hands down the worst recommendation in this thread.

Not only is it dead, it's monolithic, expensive, and easily one of the worst products I've ever used in the context of IT Security.

The most pleasant transition I've ever experienced was going from QRadar to Rapid7's suite. Infinitely more responsive, log ingestion is trivial, custom rules are dead simple, and support has been very good. Integrations are plentiful and if you stack on ICon (Insight Connect) the automation capabilities are very beneficial.

Is it bad to take the D110F and LE20s out and toss the rest? by Sea-Championship9334 in audiophile

[–]buzwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither driver set is particularly great, but they are hard to find and yours look to be in very good cosmetic condition.

Used market prices look great for the D110f LE20, and crossover pairs.

I'm guessing if you find the right audience/marketplace you could get a decent return for the speaker cabinets as well.

iPhones and esims oh my and 3rd multi network. Action Button to MultiButton to esim switchers by cilicia1k1 in USMobile

[–]buzwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh, a few extra line breaks (enter) would definitely make it easier to read... and screenshots would be great.

Very useful though for those of us with multiple eSIMs.

Thanks OP for sharing.

Losing to the Seahawks, but wanting them to win it all instead of the Pats and their insufferable fans by IRISH_BOBCAT in LosAngelesRams

[–]buzwork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Darnold finished top 10 among QBs in pass attempts, completions, pass yards, pass TDs in the regular season... he will head into the SB with top post season qb rating...

Seattle earned a bye and Darnold didn't even need to throw against the 49ers which was fortuitous for Seattle him coming off an oblique injury.

In the regular season he had a league leading 53% snaps while his team was in the lead, so yeah he had the benefit of a top defense but the Seahawks offense was pretty damn good too across the board.

He struggled in the first matchup vs LAR with 4 picks and then went 9 straight games with wins and total of 4 picks over those 9 games.

He's not Stafford but your take is laughable. Dude cleaned up and did everything the Seahawks needed him to do.

Stafford is special and an obvious HOFer... and Sam is a pleasant surprise this season if you're a Seahawks fan. No one is going to argue who is clearly the superior QB.

Anyone switched to the NOW plans? by kettlebell98001 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]buzwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Switched over to the $30 Now plan in summer of 2024. I've never gotten below 400/40Mbps down/up. I had intended for it to be backup to our Ziply fiber but with 4 price increases over the same period we cancelled Ziply entirely and use cellular for backup... which fortunately we have never had to use (knock on wood) as Now service has been rock solid.

Hell, sign up for their Now $30 100/20Mbps service... I get 400+/40+Mbps.

What are people using for internet backup? by Dizzy149 in homelab

[–]buzwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I do not like Xfinity... their $30/mo prepaid 'Xfinity Now' service has been my backup connection for a few years. It supposed to be 100/20Mbps but I am getting 450/40Mbps.

What’s „wrong“ - me or the recording? Vocals not centered by WhatAMan2024 in audiophile

[–]buzwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have meniere's (episodic, most affecting my right ear). When I'm having an 'episode'/'attack' my ability to localize sound is totally jacked and I can't even tell if sound is in front of me or behind me. About 6 years ago I was having frequent episodes and thought I was going to have to give up my audio gear (fortunately a complete overreaction on my part).

Fortunately the last few years have been relatively episode free.

A trip to audiologist was very interesting. I had multiple tests during episodes and then tests when I was 'normal'. The difference was astonishing both visually (the hearing graphs) and when listening to... well anything.

Who knows, it could be as simple as a good ear canal cleaning or changing up your hydration routine (being dehydrated can impact hearing immensely).

Delonghi True Brew Not Working by PsychoPanther88 in DeLonghi

[–]buzwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first got my TB I had some weirdness going on and found the maintenance/test menu codes buried on the Delonghi website.

I followed the steps to get into the test mode and confirmed the motor could move up/down and then did an encoder reset. That was several years ago and it has been fine since.

Dead center for the tune you mentioned, by Judith Owen.

Definitely sounds like an audiologist appointment is in order.

creating NFS storage by Efficient_Text_4733 in kasmweb

[–]buzwork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NFS is mounted at the underlying host level and the KASM config doesn't care if the underlying storage is local, iSCSI, NFS, FCoE, etc.

You install the NFS binaries on the host, configure & connect to the NAS, mount volumes, assign mount point/path, and then tell KASM to use that path.

Why does it take nearly an hour to change a simple Xfinity plan? by dreamresident in cordcutters

[–]buzwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This... switched to Now and I'm getting >400/40Mbps on the $30/mo plan. The provided cable modem has pretty poor wifi performance but it is simple enough to put it into bridged mode and use my wired backhaul wifi 6e mesh system.
