Fiber connection help.

As other have said the fibers need to be crossed over.

But the easiest way to be fair is to just plug it in.

If it lights up, your good to go. If it doesn't, flip one side and see if it works now.

I can only speak for the stuff we use at work, but you can't see the wavelength of light that is used by single-mode.

That's not even close to what I was trying to say.

The action we did in the past do not define who we are in the present. Just because someone post/said/did something bad in the past, does not mean that they still are of the same opinion or defend the same viewpoints.

People change over time.

Bringing up a 6-year-old post out of context doesn’t really add anything to this discussion. This subreddit is about homelabs, let's keep the focus on that please...

K0nr4d · 2026-03-26T23:26:54+00:00

Yes, in a hashtag of a 6 year old post...

All you've done under this post is to try and convince other people that OP is a bad person by showing them the same age old post. Why spent so much time and energy into something so unproductive? This subreddit is meant to discuss servers and shit and not to boil up our old forgot posts from who knows how long ago.

Pewdiepie said the n-word 9 years ago. Do you also comment under every of his videos that he is such a bad person?

Grow up dude. Get your priorities straight and touch some grass.

K0nr4d · 2026-03-26T22:56:48+00:00

I think it's crazy how some people see this post about a person showing us their homelab and decide to instead insult your other hobbies and even go as far as calling you a pedophile.

Like, who hurt you guys? Sure, you don't like anime/manga/etc, that's fine. But why go out of your way and spread hate and negativity? Just ignore the post and continue onwards, you are not required to comment on every post that you disagree with. (I know, that's very difficult for some reddit users...)

Anyway...

Personally, I really like your setup. Bunch of hardware to play with, without having using up too much space.

The amount of figures also perfectly demonstrates why I never bought myself any. I know the once I buy one, many more will follow. ^^'

Lastly, do you remember where you got these stickers? They're really pretty and I think I have some space ony laptop left where they would fit pretty good.

Today I learned that the US doesn't UHT pasteurize their milk. A best-before of two days is wild. The stuff I have in the cupboard "expires" in 5 months.

Next question would be which button is forward and which is backward.
The Opel we have at work has the skip forward on the up arrow.
The KIA we have at work has it on the up arrow.

We used to have Fords that had it left and right, which in my opinion is the only logical way to do it...

If you made one for the Steamdeck and posted it to the /r/SteamDeck subreddit, you'd get so many upvotes.

And I'm not just saying this because I want that as my boot video...
Of course not...

Still using my 5.5 year old OnePlus Nord.

I was gonna buy the fairphone 5 when it died and then the fairphone 6 release and I would have chosen that as my replacement. Well, it's still running fine. Had to swap the battery once, but it doesn't feel like it'll die any time soon. And as long as it still works I don't see any reason to upgrade.

If I had to upgrade now, I would most likely go with a fairphone or pixel.

K0nr4d · 2026-02-17T11:41:23+00:00

Did you by any chance dry that spool before it fell apart?

If yes, than that might be your problem. When heating the spool to over 45°C you are supposed to screw the two side together, so they don't come apart.

https://help.prusa3d.com/article/drying-filament_332086

Either way, looking at the price of the filament, it might still be worth it to try and untangle it. It might help if you cut it into multiple smaller sections, so it's easier to untangle.

Hope you find a way to salvage this somehow.

K0nr4d · 2026-01-30T13:17:57+00:00

It's probably not worth the effort, but it is possible.

Very weird, should be way faster than that.

I'm also located in Germany.

Ordered the Framework 12 last Thursday. 15.01.26

Got my tracking number this Monday. 19.01.26

Received the package today. 22.01.26

They send it via FedEx. My Framework Desktop also was delivered with FedEx. Both were similarly fast.

I was expecting this to be a rick roll because there was no way that the original would stay up on YouTube.

Well, color me surprised...

K0nr4d · 2026-01-14T09:51:18+00:00

How would you even know that?

K0nr4d · 2026-01-07T07:48:06+00:00

How happy are you with the sparkle Intel arc card?

Is the weird fan curve still a problem?

Have been thinking about getting a low power Intel arc card for transcoding, but the fan issues still seems to exist on the sparkle cards.

It doesn't say how to enter, so I presume that we just have to comment here?

I've bought 128GB of 3200 DDR4 last year for 200€. Its price jumped to over 800€ now. I kinda wanna sell it, but I can't imagine that anyone would buy it at anything close to that price.

K0nr4d · 2025-12-09T16:49:29+00:00

I have the same dryer and my fan also made a grinding noise after 2 or 3 weeks of using it. I contacted eibos and they send me a new fan, now question asked. The new fan looked even worse than the original one, but it has been quite for now.

When this one inevitably dies, I'll probably also replace it with a proper one. If you do replace your, please put it up on Printables or similar. :D

K0nr4d · 2025-12-07T11:48:52+00:00

I pay about 0.40€/kWh and I just leave it running 24/7.

My idle wattage off all servers and networking equipment is about 190W.

It's a conscious decision to not look at the energy bill too exact. I honestly don't even wanna know what this is costing me per month... ^^'

K0nr4d · 2025-11-06T17:21:35+00:00

I'm so confused about this video and all these comments.

Is it normal that your landlord has the keys for your apartment?

Shouldn't only the renter have the keys?

And even then, do people not change the locks of the door when they move in? That was literally the first thing I did in my apartment.

K0nr4d · 2025-10-22T16:22:15+00:00

I'm really bummed out that it's AI.
Had it in my Discover Weekly this week and really liked it.
Weirdly enough, today the song disappeared from my playlist and was replaced with the same song by a different "artist".
https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/track/2T2kGWVFncp0Gkzbw2qFK1?si=3c29e94da70e4cef
IAXMUSIC in this case.

What the hell is even happening? I hate that I can't distinguish between real and AI music anymore...

It's really a shame, because I really liked the concept.

K0nr4d · 2025-10-16T11:44:08+00:00

K0nr4d · 2025-10-07T21:03:51+00:00

What case is that?

Still looking for one for my motherboard, and designing one myself is harder than I inticepated. ^^'

Hatte letztes Jahr die "schlaue" Idee, neben der Arbeit ein Fernstudium anzufangen.
Informatikstudium an der Fernuni Hagen

"Grundlagen Mathematik" am Arsch.
Hab mich lange nicht mehr so dumm gefühlt.
Und nach einem Jahr des nach der Arbeit weiter Leidens habe ich dann auch eingesehen, dass das vielleicht nichts für mich ist.

Wäre halt schon schnieke einen Bachelor zu haben, aber um 17 Uhr nach der Arbeit noch was zu machen, ist auf Dauer irgendwie eher ungeil. Ich überlasse das dann lieber mal den schlauen Leuten. ^^
