I’ve had these in the kids’ bedrooms for a few years. They were great until a few months ago when Sonos completely botched some brig…

That’s a pretty good idea. Thanks.

Well damn. I bought one of these a couple of months ago to use as a cache drive in my Unraid server but have been busy so haven’t…

Ih wow. This takes me back. I used Beyond Compare heaps when aI was doing Delphi development 15-20 years ago. I probably still have a…

Seems it’s available for delivery or in store for $579 now, and the same price at Amazon. I’m sort of tempted to pull the trigger but…

There’s two groups of issues. One group is about changes to their networking stack to use mDNS among other changes. For some people that…

What’s RtN?

Where did you get for $50? If that’s still running I’d pay it to get them sooner.

I’ve got - pi4 4gb running home assistant (home automation), AdGuard plus (network-level ad blocking) and Tailscale (VPN/remote access…

You definitely don’t need 8gb for pikvm. Very few things do. Even 2gb is more than fine. It doesn’t need to do much. Last I saw, pikvm…

Hmm. I think you’re right. PC Part Picker estimates 394W for this parts list. https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/X9MnqR It will also have:…

I’m putting together a fairly low power home Unraid server. It’ll be using an i5-14500 and 8-10 hard disks. It won’t be using a…

I agree with you but I think there’s maybe three, maybe four scenarios where this makes sense. 1. You have an LCD Switch and want an OLED…

I’m curious. If you don’t mind sharing, what are you using 832TB of storage for?

You're right. Thanks.

It might be a bit niche because of that but this is pretty ideal for a home NAS. All I can fit here is a 400mm deep 12RU rack. I also only…

I think it depends who the customers are. Ubiquiti are aimed mostly at small-medium businesses that need something a bit better than…

Yeah this isn’t the best deal, just the best available right now. Even as recently as July, they were down to $178.

For anyone unaware, Google has sold all Google Domains customer accounts to Squarespace and will be shutting down the service once the…

We got this sometimes when I was a kid in the early 90s. One of the first things I read in it involved typing in some code for a program…

This or the jet blower and 2.0AH battery for $149 if I already have a few 4.0AH batteries and wouldn’t mind a smaller battery to use with…

Yeah that was my thought too. I wonder if that should be 1200%. I’m still tempted to pick one of these up for soldering work.

I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago for $139 and hadn’t even taken it out of the box yet. I just returned that one and picked up…

Wow. I bought this jigsaw about two weeks ago for $139. I haven’t even taken it out of the box yet. I’m going to return it now and pick…

I haven’t paid attention in a couple of years. Last I remembered, Rama had a good reputation. What happened?

Legend! This worked after about 2 minutes. Saved me both a ton of clicking or looking at more code today.

All Pi models have very low power consumption. The difference between them is small enough that it won’t matter at all (eg. A couple of…

Which power board do you use? I’ve been looking for one with energy monitoring for a while.

I haven’t seen one. It took about 5-10 mins for my account to be verified and opened after I signed up and uploaded a selfie and photo of…
