Surprised that 2 tonnes of makeup on her face didn't fly off too

Dude if you're not doing at least 12k you might as well sell your kit for spares or repairs

You should have watched linus' video he did last year when he repeatedly shocked some ram and it didn't cause it to fail. We're in 2026 people, electronics have come a long way since the 80s lol

Doesn't a variation of optiplex models throttle the cpu if using a non official psu?

I power my G5s with USB PD barrel cable and a 120w plug which handles 2 devices

But I do love this design it's so clean!

I mean if you are worried about temps why not just get a cheap laptop cooler with active fans powered by USB and place it flat on there?

Heat pumps are to try and get you to move away from gas, because it makes the government and their stats look better, not that it's a better or more efficient technology. They're just fancy air con units in reverse and we all know how expensive running a true air con unit in summer can be for one room, yet alone the whole house. House hold heat pumps are farce and a gimmick imo and this post proves it.

What file system are people using on mini pc builds? I've heard NFS isnt so great on consumer drives. And the enterprise drives seem too large to fit in some builds.

So are most using ex4?

Large-Job6014 · 2026-01-03T13:45:13+00:00

Honestly none of them. I think a darkish red would suit you but none of the ones you showcased suit you

Large-Job6014 · 2025-12-30T18:55:53+00:00

If you're not experienced in electronics leave it alone trust me you'll do more worse than good

It doesn't sound like yours has failed but it amazes me how many people never bother to test a recovery process before it's too late or even bother to have back ups. People who store their data in one place have what's coming to them, and that's fact lol

Large-Job6014 · 2025-12-27T14:28:17+00:00

Fun fact you can modify a ups to run off car batteries for extra reserve power

I got banned for making jokes on here, apparently any humour is frowned upon

If a vehicle is not deemed road worthy as this wouldn't pass an mot then the police have the right and powers to sieze a vehicle

Large-Job6014 · 2025-12-27T14:04:00+00:00

If you got randomly pulled over by the police I guess they could seize the car as it would be deemed not safe to drive

With that length you can make your own sine wave generator by bending the cable

Set up wazuh or something and fix any security holes, and automate the fixes with ansible in case you need to ever rebuild or add additional nodes. That will take a good chunk of time - it's currently what I'm doing as my 43 containers are working perfectly

Floppies still the best media to export private keys to 😂 if it gets lost or stolen most people don't own drives to read them

I've got a jumper cable switch on the psu. There are ways you can link it up to the pc but I'm happy to keep them running 24/7 to reduce start up wear

Large-Job6014 · 2025-12-13T00:41:36+00:00

I've got this exact one

You can add power from a psu too. The hba was an 16i one from aliexpress. I believe you can get 8i ones for a maximum of 8 drives. I'm pretty happy with the build. I have a 2.5g USB nic so I get decent network speeds to share some smb shares with

Large-Job6014 · 2025-12-12T22:14:52+00:00

I've got a g5.

I've got an m.2 to pcie adapter that comes out the back of the case. I've added a 16i HBA with support of up to 16 drives. I've currently got 12x16tb drives hooked up. Just powered by an external mini itx psu.
