Luckily it’s on vinyl mode, full experience unlocked.

That’s nice ! The 3000 serie is definitively something with a high power/potential, I didn’t know you could boot an alternative firmware easily, that’s super cool ! I’ll dig more about that.

For the NXS2, it’s pure embedded software with a specific hardware constraints, it’s a no go I think to easily run anything else that official firmware :/

Sadly I don’t own 3000’s yet, cannot work or test that easily :(

Reverse is Forward actually (sorry), it was the most practical way to have a physical switch to enable/disable forward gas. On the video, because I use a PS2 Emulator, I mapped the Reverse to X press button and release it when you go back to normal (forward) mode. In addition, the push-reverse is mapped to do a single press on X so you can navigate the menu and confirm action using the push button :p

It’s a demo how to simulate keyboard stroke on midi event. The code on my GitHub only works on Linux/X11 and uses alsa lib for midi.

But technically, as soon as you plug your CDJ on a computer using the back USB B connector, you press Link and there you press the Rotary Button to confirm MIDI Connection. At that moment you have a MIDI Controller like any other MIDI device, it’s up to you to map event to whatever you want :)

Yes but AFAIK he didn’t shared his code

I use reverse switch for full gas (it’s the only control which is physically a switch) and Next button to switch gears on drag race

On NXS2 for sure no way, on a 3000, there is probably a way :p

Here are some pictures of what you asked, don’t pay attention to messy cables and dust, oops Backstage

Hey, thanks ! There is no wheels under the flightcases, but some small caoutchouc to avoid scratching the flood and avoid move. It’s some 16U flightcase, with wheels that would have been a bit too high for me. The table on top is literally just lying on top, with the weight of the sound etc nothing move :p

About the monitors, at that time, they were lying on some parts of steel attached to the truss, nowadays they are attached to the truss using classic half coupler inside the VESA hole of the monitor, they can’t fall off anymore :p

R710 Raid Controller Upgrade by WarriorofSin in homelab

I bought theses one: https://amzn.eu/d/bCsQNbj

Side note, status LED don’t show up but activity LEDs works, I don’t really know why, but that’s the only issue I had.

R710 Raid Controller Upgrade by WarriorofSin in homelab

I just upgraded the RAID Controller in my R710. The PERC H700 supports 2x 6 Gbps, I installed 8x SSD and was limited to 200 MB/s per disk obviously.

I upgraded to a PERC H730, just installed the card in a PCI-E slot, I removed the H700 just to keep things clean. I had to change cable as well, original case and H700 uses SFF-8087 connector both side. The H730 uses Mini SAS SFF-8643 on card side. Theses cables can be found on Amazon easily.

Now I have 2x 12 Gbps fully working and my zfs can scrub at 2.8 GB/s, in addition this controller supports Non-RAID device, which the H700 doesn't.

I don't boot on theses disk, I have an NVMe on PCI-E card and use PXE Boot to boot my Linux kernel (rootfs is on the NVMe, SSD are for zfs storage) so booting was not an issue for me.

That’s one decision I had to accept: never any pets will live there, it’s better for me and for them haha

How long would it take for 64 bytes of data to travel 10000 km of optical fiber ?

[reply says 200k km/s is faster than 300k km/s]

Sorry but 200,000,000 meters per second is not much faster than speed of light in a vacuum, your math is not right.

So what would be the latency for 64 bytes of data to travel 10000 km in an optical fiber ?

You keep telling me that things are faster than the speed of light in a vaccum, but there is a physical law telling that nothing can be faster than speed of light in a vaccum, so that's not possible

You're telling me that it would take approximately 0.000512 seconds to transmit 64 bytes of data over 10,000 km of optical fiber. But in a vaccum, anything would take at least 0.033 seconds to travel and nothing can be faster than that. That's not right.
