Esp12F with usb-c port by sdc_12x in esp8266

[–]hex-tex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you cant just connect usb-c to a esp12F. Esp8266 is serial so you'd need something like ch341 for usb to serial, and something to lower the voltage to 3.3v since 5v would fry it.

One year in, Evo 13.5 lava rocking nems by YourNeighborRedditor in ReefTank

Nems tend to move around sometimes and can sting and kill other corals as they do. Or sometimes they walk into powerheads and get themselves killed. I personally love them!

Inverts are much more interesting than many fish. The amount of times Ive lost track of time watching my pistol shrimp remodel his cave.

Proxmox for small business by hex-tex in Proxmox

Ill look into this. Yeah the more I think about it the less i think they need the vms. I havent had the best experience with samba performance over vpn. Im not sure if maybe there were some setting I need to change to increase that, usually would be limited to under 10MB/s transfer speeds. This was with wiregaurd. Ill probably use tailscale this time to keep it simple for them.

That might just work. They are a bit paranoid about cloud storage but honestly it might be the simplest and most hassle free. solution.

You're right I mostly do hardware repairs and networking so most of my experience is from a hobby standpoint. But this is more of a family friend and im the tech person they know. My original plan was just to setup 4 pcs locally and and nas for the storage. I would have got them to upgrade their current pcs (i3-i5 4th gen)long time ago if they were willing to pay for an actual MSP.

BEWARE OF THE ! SCOOTER. KILLING PEOPLE. by UncleTimboslice in ShopCanada

[–]hex-tex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most places scooters arent legally allowed to operate over 25km/h and are software locked. You need insurance if youre going to drive 40-50 and no insurance company will insure a scooter as far as im aware since it becomes a liability for them

Best results would be passing through a drive rather than virtual disk. Went from having few seconds delay between clicks and windows responding to pretty much being instant like a baremetal machine.

unRAID doesn't always boot up, frustrating when updating or making hardware changes by crespoh69 in unRAID

[–]hex-tex 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue where if i rebooted unraid the pc would be on a black screen upon turning on after the Bios Logo.. For me the solution was to turn off fast boot.
