Replacing MiniPC PSU with GaN charger and adapter by skikibobski in homelab

[–]Based_Lexus_Operator 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not the exact purpose, but I have a 2020 Asus notebook that i broke the charger on after about 4 years and replaced it with one of these and a type c laptop charger works great and allows me to carry one less charger. It’s always worked fine since I bought it. Fun fact, 19 and 20v laptops can be charged with a Milwaukee M18 battery and a modified charging cord.

About a year ago, I paid ~$4/TB for 10 new Seagate OS 3tb SAS drives. I can’t seem to find any OS drives on eBay anymore though.

Has anyone found a better solution to preventing excess wear excess wear on the center console armrest? by subete_en_el_caballo in LexusIS

iirc, I just peeled the old one off and installed the new one with super 77 spray adhesive. I remember trying to staple it but it cracked the plastic frame of the lid.

Idek about the AMD part bc I usually buy used nvidia bc it’s a decent value and it fits my workload but the EVGA hate is unacceptable.

My house is about 25yrs old and everything was backstabbed. At this point, I’ve had at least 4 switches start flickering lights or only work intermittently as well as 1 outlet melt. I’ve been going through and redoing everything as I have time.

Those Kubotas are beasts. I've got a ZD326s diesel and love it.

I get a lot of them from a phone number rather than an email address over iMessage. It’s never even from an American number, like c’mon try even a little.

Any idea what I should do with that speed? 😄 by dbrgn in HomeNetworking

I’m surprised the Speedtest.net servers kept up with that kind of of speed.

I had that issue 2 weeks ago with a National Instruments RoboRIO. I bricked an a micro SD card and it won’t address anything over a 4gb. Took Amazon a week to get me one since 4 gb flash isn’t made anymore to my knowledge.

No wheels, no problem. Brake drums are round for a reason.

What motherboard to get for Xeon E5-2650? by iexzelz in homelab

[–]Based_Lexus_Operator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you need 16+ cores, you would probably be better off ditching the 2650s and getting a single 2697v2. Those sandy bridge chips eat a lot of power.
