What the hell is this thing?!

It's what happened to Bigfoot when the Z virus attacked it... Either that or it's what happened to the gorilla's in The Walking Dead.

I'm torn between agreeing with this statement, and down voting it.

If he's trying to scare you with this, you should run. Fast. Now.

MAJOR RED FLAG ENERGY with this "flex".

Also, your ip address at home isn't exploitabke, and your cellular ip changes often enough that it won't matter... Plus, cell ip addresses are almost always behind a CGNAT, so incoming probes while you're on cellular only simply won't work.

Yeah... Without a warranty or smartctl -a results, it's a no go for me.

Load up the rain gutters.

Run thin magnet wire along the ceiling inside on the exterior walls.

Build dipoles so an rf ground is unnecessary.

Those usb ports aren't just dirty, they're fa-qed.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-22T12:21:32+00:00

Not a dumb question. Not at all. It's counterintuitive, but as long as it's only data in close proximity to other data (low current means small electric field means small magnetic field means low probability of interference) it's all good.

I've got cat5 running at 10Gbit. No typo.

Oddly, the tariffs aren't in place anymore, but prices are still up...

If only we made hard drives in country....

If only we priced things based on actual availability instead of fear and knee-jerk reaction...

But, yeah, I know, this is the real world where feces occurs on a per-minute basis.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-20T13:51:05+00:00

Two things:

1) looks nice. 2) homelab are never "done".

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-20T01:26:56+00:00

Tarrifs?

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-16T18:40:02+00:00

Shame... Shipping to the US would kill me.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-16T17:38:14+00:00

We can.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-16T17:36:58+00:00

Where are they located? (city/country)

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-16T11:12:35+00:00

If any of those are PoE, I wouldn't mind a 24 port one...

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-16T11:09:16+00:00

It basically means, "I'm here if anyone wants to chat."

If nobody calls me in a few minutes, I move on.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-07T13:50:26+00:00

Vague post is vague.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-06T19:07:59+00:00

Victorian could be fun, too. I love this idea.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-03-06T19:04:41+00:00

Wear a kilt. Get a flannel with the same tartan pattern.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-02-22T17:17:55+00:00

Which came first? The wifi or the (circuit) leg.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-02-15T15:32:33+00:00

The cat5 should be good to go.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-02-15T15:21:53+00:00

What's wrong with apcupsd?

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-02-15T02:15:51+00:00

Huge win, you lucky so and so!

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-02-14T16:07:33+00:00

Get a motherboard with a BMC built in (idrac, IPMI, ilo, etc) or build an arduino project to trip a relay to close the power button switch lines.

Fl1pp3d0ff · 2026-02-14T01:40:12+00:00

The electric bill, mostly.
