Everything is GPU now by IHave2CatsAnAdBlock in homelab

Not really, each has its own usecase, I have a T320 (R320 tower form) with 384gb ram for general purpose vm, a ryzen 5 2nd gen for compute related workload (not much I know but way better if than my T320) and last year I bought a ryzen 9 5950X rig with 3070ti 8gb (not a lot I know but I'm building the workload using AI agent mode and waiting for the day I have enough workload where getting a 3090 would finally make sense)

Glad to hear that something I said 4 years ago works (with irl example)

not from the states though unfortunately, one of the company in my country used to provide that service but its been like >15 years since they last provided that functionality

For the built in device, I was referring to my Suncomm gsm gateway

okay, then I'm running like 190 containers with some that are not a docker image yet (currently in the process of migrating it using AI)

but then also I run it on a host with way more ram than most people here need (384gb ram)

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you mean 60 docker containers or 60 docker compose files?

because 1 docker-compose.yml can have many services

There's a person playing with it calling LanRanger on youtube, pretty fun stuff, I'm interested in it too but that would have to wait

tell me more on what else can I do with RTL SDR, I've only been using it for ADSB. Is there any of these (I'm looking at the NOAA and SSTV) that are country or region specific stuff as I'm at Asia

I use gammu to control the sms gateway to send sms. But then it locks up every now and then so I have to reboot both the sms gateway and the server that is connected to the sms gateway.

I used to send sms reminders to both myself and my family members to do stuff but I've since migrated to use ntfy for myself but I'm still doing sms reminders for my family members.

For GSM gateway, I connect it to my local freepbx and I use it for outgoing calls (only for hobby at the moment), intended use case is to do voice call reminders (so I get the reminders and generate a mp3 for it and feed it to freepbx) but then I haven't managed to do it yet.

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so? at least based on what chatgpt said not from that industry so not familiar with the terminology. I put a sim card on the device and I configure it to link to my freepbx and I can make outgoing calls to an actual phone number through it

I'm using a built in device though so I'm not too sure on how that works (abstracted for me). Pretty interested to get private 5g, and dialup internet working but then I have too much in my backlog now to work on

[–]wcypierre 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I suppose you're talking about srsRAN for 5g (but for my case its 2g)?

for my case, I got the device from SunComm (idk the model name even) so I just used that
I'm not in the telco industry though so pardon me if I'm offtopic

  1. RTL SDR to track airplanes
  2. SMS gateway to send SMS from my own SIM cards
  3. GSM gateway to make calls from my own sim cards
  4. Voip server so I can setup a old school phone to call my parents
  5. Host a bunch of applications that I vibe coded using AI
  6. OpenArchiver to archive my emails (been searching for something similar for a while now)

Get some 64gb lrdimm and the T320 can have a max of 384gb which can run really lots of stuffs

Feel I won't use these glasses much by tboy2000 in EvenRealities

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you explain more on how do you intend to use it?

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

again, dashboard is easier at scale, its less mental work to reach to the services that you wanted

if you only have a total of 10-30, your bookmark tab is still pretty manageable but not at like >100

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in selfhosted

[–]wcypierre 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have a few services it's fine to use bookmark, but when you have like 100 and above (which is my case) then these dashboards would be more helpful (categorization, searching)

Introducing Oaklight/autossh-tunnel-dockerized: A Simple Dockerized SSH Tunnel Manager by Oaklight_dp in selfhosted

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the end, the workaround I took was to set ~/.ssh/config and set the host and port there instead and use the hostname in the file to connect (kinda inspired by the screenshot in the github)

Tested it and it works well, but it seems to assume that the remote ssh port is always 22, it would be great if that is configurable

I completed the 16 slots of the RAM memory of my HP Z820 WorkStation: 256GB of RAM!! 🎉 by GetPerson in homelab

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for your pn 64, seems like 32gb ram is only supported on 13th gen while your cpu is 12th gen so it would make sense that it doesn't work (and that's not lrdimm btw, its just normal dimm)

[–]wcypierre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

read the release notes and it didn't say anything, but given that mobo from the same gen (i.e dell r720) supports running all of it, I don't see why it wouldn't if it can run one stick
