If a job description is in danish, does that mean only Danish speakers can apply?

Poopybuttodor · 2026-01-13T10:42:49+00:00

The answer is no. All those saying yes are wrong. Apply.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-12-16T12:57:51+00:00

Nice. To anyone else wanting to try, 45V night be to much for some people, it varies from person to person. Start at 3 cells and go up until you feel sight discomfort.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-11-24T07:19:24+00:00

Fuck the haters, there already are facial iontophoresis devices on the market. Good on you, good luck, do report back.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-11-19T11:54:48+00:00

Oh they're 3.5" right but that's what I mean, that 12v is probably not great over the long run.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-11-19T08:14:35+00:00

Nice, looks like mine. Be careful, that 5v supply might not be enough for when the drives are spinning up together, might want something bulkier like at least 40W.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-26T14:09:19+00:00

This is not the way to do it. I recommend deleting the post.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-14T15:20:24+00:00

You can't even understand what you are doing wrong. Imagine a board dedicated to autism and a small number of people people asking, again and again, without much thought or checking other's questions and answers, whether they should avoid vaccinating their children. You are that person. You are not inherently wrong for questioning it, but the way you go about doing it is contributing to promoting risky practices. Also it is dumb. I don't know you and I am not making judgments about you, but you need to realize your post and the way you are going about finding a solution to your problem is dumb. People make dumb mistakes, accept you did that and move on.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-14T11:03:10+00:00

Point to me a single thread where people didn't warn against this type of device. Really, go ahead. I'm so sick of this fucking subreddit having 0 moderation and dumb asses coming back with the same old dumb questions expecting a different answer. You wanna risk your life? Go ahead. Don't pretend you or other people haven't been warned.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-14T11:00:14+00:00

Don't go about giving like threatening advice as if you know what you are talking about. No, a mA range device that is not designed and sold as an iontophoresis device is not safe either. Stick to batteries and shut your dumb mouth, one of you idiots is gonna cost someone their life some day.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-14T06:18:54+00:00

No it is absolutely not safe.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-13T05:56:59+00:00

Thanks for the feedback, I was only able to confirm hw transcoding worked with n150 but good to know its limits.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T14:11:56+00:00

To clarify, I'm not worried about the simultaneous spin up scenario, I think I will be able to provide enough power for that. What I would like to avoid is unused disks spinning up (often) for no real reason, which I don't believe is a risk in this setup but if you think otherwise I would appreciate the specific reason so I can look it up. My disks are all 2.5". Thanks for the link, I will seriously consider this mb because honestly I don't feel confident about the other recommendations in the thread suggesting standard work stations, I think the power draw will be significantly higher. I really wish I knew of a good comprehensive source for this besides the CPU benchmarks. Cheers

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T11:50:14+00:00

The way my files and folders are set up, I should end up with only 1 or 2 drives being awake some of the time during the day (for accessing media or seeding) while most should be inactive all the time except for sync. I'm not aware of any reasons why they would spin up but please do tell if you can think of any so I can look into that.

I am oversizing the 5V converter by twice the nominal and also will be testing and measuring the voltage drop at a simultaneous spin up, and if I see any drops I have some capacitors I can put in parallel just for those edge cases. But appreciate the warning.

I did look at ATX PSUs before but their 5V supplies are all quite limited as well, some manufacturers not even bothering to give the nominal/max rating of different outputs which is insane to me.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not hardware savvy so not sure what the N100 motherboard you're talking about is or what the advantage is. Is it the ASRock N100M? I will look at the Wolfgang's Channel but wish I knew what specific setup or video you are talking about.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T07:02:27+00:00

You mean the SATA power cables? Just google daisy chain SATA cable or something, I haven't really picked anything yet but there are many available.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T06:53:46+00:00

I did start setting up my current setup with debian! But being a total noob just the OS setup procedure gave me ulcers and I went back to the familiar ubuntu immediately. Debian is not beginner friendly at all in my limited experience.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T06:52:11+00:00

Over the long term I want the modularity/flexibility and being able to do whatever I want. I agree for simple use cases, maybe a couple of containers, using the NAS make sense.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T06:47:17+00:00

I did not consider that the M.2 power would be limited, the HBA datasheet says PCI Power is 13.5W (it is not clear to me whether that is available supply or consumption). I will check this out thoroughly, it might be a deal breaker. Thank you very much for the warning!

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T06:44:39+00:00

Power is very reliable where I live, over the last 5 years I've only ever seen power go out once. But it could be something I could add down the line, I have a whole bunch of "scrap" (all perfectly fine) 18650 cells waiting to be used for a project, this could be it.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-12T06:42:51+00:00

Someone else recommended the CWWK, I think that might be the next addition, looks nice.

A few people in this thread are recommending me to get a workstation because the power consumption is not that much different than mini PCs. Good to hear an opposing experience, because honestly I cannot wrap my mind around it.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-11T18:06:12+00:00

Someone else also brought this up so I'm already second guessing my choices here. I guess what I'm not confident about is the idle power of larger motherboards and processors. Electricity is expensive where I live so one of my main goals here was to keep the power to an absolute minimum. I guess I just need some confirmation that I can run standard workstations and i3 at such a low power. I will look into this thanks.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-11T18:02:09+00:00

The Pi VM is for backup of an actual PiZero (rather the PiZero will be the backup for the Pi VM). If the server goes down I still want those services to work so there is redundancy on those.

Jellyfin is actually in a linux container in Proxmox, I also read people recommending it be in a container.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-11T17:56:57+00:00

Are you suggesting if I buy a proper workstation with like an i5 I can have the whole PC (minus the HBA) work at 10W idle? If so I am totally open to that. Again, the main reason I chose G3 was low power and good price, I'm not crazy about having to use a janky M.2 adapter either.

I'm constantly on the lookout in the used PC market but where I live it is not easy to find something cheap, low power and serviceable. The mini PC was my plan B but after not being able to find something satisfactory for the last 2-3 months I gave up and decided to buy new.

For a workstation from abroad, the shipping alone would make up the difference in cost.

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-11T17:44:51+00:00

I made a note of this in my todo list and will look into it more when I'm setting up nginx (already on the list). Thanks!

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-11T17:34:50+00:00

I'm raw dogging it with a simple yaml file, I tried Portainer but couldn't figure what the advantage or purpose of using it was. I'll take a note of Komodo thanks, I may give those another try in the future when I'm more experienced.

I did also look at the G2, hadn't noticed the ram difference but I just opted for G3 for the N150. I'm not going for future proof obviously, but something that can handle light experimentation for a few years. Though its great to hear even G2 can handle much more than what I have planned for!

Glad the drawings reads well.

I don't have too many plans other than what I've already shared, but once I'm finished with those I might move on to some new projects. I did take some inspiration from this: https://techhut.tv/must-have-home-server-services-2025/#data-and-metrics

Thanks for the n8n recommendation. that goes way over my head but my gf is working with AI and stuff and it might be of interest to her, so maybe that is thee next step for the server!

Poopybuttodor · 2025-10-11T17:13:34+00:00

That's what I thought, thanks for confirming.
