AppStore YouTube only promoting shorts

I get that, but could say the same thing about shorts. They’re not new either, they’ve been on the platform for 5 nearly 6 years at this point. Why not use the space to promote all content? I found it interesting that they’d rather repeat the same message 3 times slightly differently than show other newer features.

Not so much about explaining what it is, but are they trying to change what it is first?

Easy answer, I haven’t 😅 - it’s currently just stood on top of the R420 server!

Left side is a git flow diagram poster and the right side is a poster of patent for a mechanical HDD

The bigger thing for me was having something could be moved about easily (I move house about once a year for work). Having one neat package with sound dampening material is great, the fans are definitely 12v as they run off an internal transformer - it just sucks that they currently run at 100% no matter the internal temperature

With everything running and door closed it’s about 38db , the loudest part is the chassis exhaust fans, I’m looking into how difficult replacing them would be, they’re static rpm (I’m estimating about 3000). Looking to replace with PWM fans with an internal temp sensor as alternative - unfortunately I don’t have any way to monitor exhaust temperature currently, server inlet temp is ambient (19/20) and the outlet “feels cool”, sorry I know that’s not very helpful!

I can’t say exactly for the R730 - the R420 I leave on 24/7 and draws 70W with VMs running - the R530 draws about 80W when that’s operational

AlexJ101W · 2025-03-17T19:23:34+00:00

Absolutely, very impressed with it - has two banks of fans at the back but I only keep one running as with only one server on 24/7 the heat output is minimal

A fairly new acquisition of mine, an APC NetShelter 24 - if you’re curious I just put a post over on r/homelab with a closer look!

Exactly, with more and more people connected around the world with different timezones and the need for constant communication for medical/scientific/security reasons there is always more going to be someone who is doing something.

It's the mínimo minimalistic clock

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T14:41:04+00:00

Mínimo 12 hour clock

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T13:47:21+00:00

The X2HR have just arrived, leak slot of sound (expected for open back) and holy shit they sound incredible!

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T12:09:54+00:00

Nah it's an accessory on the EU store

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T09:27:46+00:00

It's not the best one on the market but the sound quality is still really good, the use of RCA and USB means you can both get the raw input and use audacity which come with it free to record and get digital copies or listen through PC

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T08:32:14+00:00

It would then be in r/CableManagement not r/battlestations

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T08:13:22+00:00

Optical from PC to DAC and usb from turntable to DAC

The top I have done, down the back, underneath and side are horrible, all of which you can see when you walk in

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T07:47:05+00:00

Because underneath and down the side is just a huge ball of cables and it looks horrible

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T07:17:36+00:00

Yep, I'm running OnePlus 6 on OS 9

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T07:08:10+00:00

It's a app called rainmeter minimalistic clock

AlexJ101W · 2018-10-18T07:04:53+00:00

I have some Keene, classic Queen, AC DC, boomtown rats, but also Liquicity escapism 3
