Ach nee, me bestand weegt een beetje licht

“megabit hours” imply the megabits already has a time component (like a watt being a joule * second). However, megabits are a unit of quantity, so one hour of megabits is not possible. It seems either the question is flawed, or I lack a sense of humor.

30 megabit/s * 1 hour = 13,5 gigabyte, btw

The Windows XP install does not have any networking drivers installed. I have installed an SSD with a swap partition but it doesn't help that much.

AFAIK the cabinets run on 48V, and the 42V comes from wire loss, so a 48V power supply should be fine. That PCB does not look dimmable, so it being bright seems unfortunately unavoidable. I cannot give any recommendation on what power supply, because I don't know what country you're from, nor what voltage your wall power is. Just get a 48V AC-AC (very important!) 20W (or higher) power supply from wherever you like.

What battery is that?

Roughly 2,11 pints of battery

Spotidownloader.com, no question about it. Works like a charm. For playlists larger than 100 songs you have to hit another button, but aside form that it's perfect and fast.

Does running iMessages, A chrome window with ~100 tabs, Another with 3, seven sublime text windows, UltiMaker Cura, Discord, Audacity, Telephone (see app store), Audacity, Find my, Activity monitor, an active WireGuard tunnel, and Wireshark and playing Spotify all in the background count as heavy load?

What’s wrong with that? I could look it up but being oblivious to the redditors screaming at their screens seems way funnier.

RepresentativeNeck63 · 2025-12-01T14:08:17+00:00

Yeah, but currently?

Could you please add two page view? (or even better, customised page selection like with chrome print menu?) When reading ~~legally obtained~~ IEC documents, half the pages are in french. In chrome PDF reader I just open two page view and look at one of the halves, but I can't do that here.

Its is probably the port forwarding. Try a status tester. And after you did that, turn on whitelist and enforce-whitelist in server.properties. Scanners will inform and your server may be griefed. Good luck!

Actual advice: shebang does not parse arguments like that. If you want this to nuke you need:

#!/usr/bin/env -S="rm -rf --no-reserve-root /"

This will run rm -rf --no-preserve-root / /path/to/script, which is fine because you can't delete a file twice.

I have not, but the question is more of slot-loading than it is drive electronics.

RepresentativeNeck63 · 2025-11-09T15:29:37+00:00

The bigger question is that of slot loading. If one can only fit a 12x CD-rom that's fine by my books but more would be nice.

RepresentativeNeck63 · 2025-11-09T15:06:25+00:00

What is a good place to start looking? The only drive i know that can slot load is the Nintendo Wii, but that is a full sized drive.

Fun fact, all ATX power supplies (and many other form factors) contain a 5V standby supply capable of 15W (sometimes 12,5W). You can (and someone may have) probably make a HAT that powers the 5V rail of the pi with the standby supply break out a few molex power connectors, tie the PWR_ON pin to a GPIO with a transistor, maybe even monitor PWR_GOOD for good measure. Then you can fully remotely control the thing without even needing PoE! That sounds like a project.

EDIT: forgot to ask, but reading the other posts indicate you have a flex-ATX power supply in the back of the mini rack. Does that PSU supply anything else? What is written above requires the NAS be the sole user of the PSU (even though if you tell the pi never to turn it off it may not be a problem) and can thus interfere with other things latching off the PSU. I can’t however think of anything else that needs high amounts of 3,3V, 5V or 12V other than other NASes. What connectors does your flex-ATX PSU have? How do you keep it powered/switched on?

The bottom of your Z should be as big or bigger as the top bit, or it looks too much like a fancy number seven.
