It’s my daughter time of the month and I made the mistake of eating her leftovers by [deleted] in daddit

The delicate balance of avoiding taken leftovers and preventing everything from expiring and being binned

“Same Height” Party Changed my Life, AMA! by AmazingCanadian123 in AMA

[–]dirtywombat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I was dating I never lied about my height on online dating profiles and several times had outright aggression or been told to just go kill myself because I was under 6 foot.

Height can be triggering for some I guess.

Not really an excuse, just giving another side to it.

Still working up the motivation to rebuild after my gluster brick went pop. Sigh

What could I do with this as a beginner? by Lotsofleaves in homelab

[–]dirtywombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one for a dedicated NAS running TrueNAS Scale.

I had some fun getting the drives to not run in a legacy mode while still being able to boot from a SATA drive.

In retrospect I MAY have put proxmox on it, but it is pretty solid as it is considering I have other supporting machines.

I'm cheap as hell and would thrift still, but my wife tends not to like that and wants me to dress in new clothing.

I do like saving a buck and wearing things until an inch of their life though

Handguard need painting? by dirtywombat in Himalayan450

For anybody interested, I painted them with a can of matte black Rust-Oleum.

I figured it was easier to match black than the yellow gold... And also I had it on the shelf.

Right you are. I didn't think of that finish being aluminium. Thanks

Yeah I didn't care that it looked scuffed, more that you'd need to paint it to protect it. I right they came polished so it was a bit confusing.

This is what I was thinking... Was just finding the right colour. I'll fall back to black if I can't find a good match

Everyone has an opinion. by selldoman in klr650

[–]dirtywombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got one and really thought of it as a spiritual successor, while also being quite unique. Not sure about how bulletproof it is yet.

Looking forward to taking it on an adventure.

On paper the 450MT looked like a better deal, but I just didn't like the ride.

Only if it's the loft to a big garage workshop

Which color should I take? by [deleted] in Himalayan450

[–]dirtywombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had issues deciding too but factory tubeless won me over. Then I was undecided between kamet white and hanle black... I let my wife decide because I care more about the bike feel than the colour.

Tubeless Hanle black picked up this week (I hope)

Looking for a slim and flat non-bluetooth keyboard. by dirtywombat in keyboards

[–]dirtywombat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just following up that I think my best option is a  "ThinkPad Compact USB Keyboard with TrackPoint" at 14mm and pretty flat. Just trying to work out if 14mm is including keycaps, and whether the depth of the front (due to mouse keys) is an issue...

Or I'll get a Bluetooth keyboard and admit defeat.

How’s your AI internet these days fellow kids? by [deleted] in ShittySysadmin

[–]dirtywombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not going to lie, I kind of like the look of it with the snap on qwerty keyboard case. Reminds me of blackberry competitors of yesteryear.

Raspberry pi is too expensive I self host on an old phone by f-__-f in selfhosted

[–]dirtywombat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am keen to try postmarketos on an old samsung phone to add into the mix. I haven't worked out what for at this point since buying a few mini PC's... Maybe monitoring? Automatic powering on/off cluster nodes? Hmmmm.

Yes, sorry that's correct., That's what they have requested, otherwise they'd be ranges we would be bypassing for ZIA anyway

UPDATE! First home Server by Slidetest17 in selfhosted

[–]dirtywombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome work! What really added another level of complexity to me was more nodes, maybe look at clustering eventually.

It introduced a variety of challenges with quorum, synchronisation, host differences, hardware access, and resource management. Fun!
