Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:<p>Friday morning, sysadmin coffee break. As every Friday, I updated all my servers with a `dnf update`, `reboot` cycle, updated the firewall by adding a bunch of brute-force spambots and password guessers to my blocklists, did some further checks on where they come from while drinking a nice Café au lait.</p><p><a href="https://social.wildeboer.net/tags/HomeLab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HomeLab</span></a> <a href="https://social.wildeboer.net/tags/SelfHosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SelfHosting</span></a></p>

Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:<p><a href="https://social.wildeboer.net/tags/Lazyweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lazyweb</span></a>, when my system spec says "NVME M.2 SSD (support up to two M.2 SSD) / PCIe NVMe, PCIe 3.0 x 4", will a (seemingly) newer Crucial P3 Plus SSD 1TB M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen4 PCIe 4.0 work? Are they backwards compatible or do I need to stick to the PCIe 3.0 stuff?</p><p>UPDATE: According to the Crucial specs this should work, they claim backward compatibility with PCIe 3.0. We will see tomorrow, when it arrives :)</p><p><a href="https://social.wildeboer.net/tags/Homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Homelab</span></a> <a href="https://social.wildeboer.net/tags/SelfHosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SelfHosting</span></a></p>
Jason Weatherly<p>This should be the last minirack post for awhile as it's 99.9% finished. It was a very fun build, and it's a heluva-lot quieter than what it replaced. I did lose network bandwidth, but the new cluster does exactly what it's supposed to. Live migrations are fast enough, iSCSI network means that the VMs are snappy storage-wise. The PiKVM + Switch fits perfectly in the basement.</p><p>The dual fans fixed the issue of the top Minisforum MS-A2 baking from the heat of the RPis, and the QNAP switch is a beast. I definitely recommend building in a minirack as they're adorable and very, very capable.</p><p><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelab</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/minirack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>minirack</span></a></p>
WolfinPDX<p>Anyone want to buy my old gaming PC / barebones server from me?

David Andersen<p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelab</span></a> network UPS is working again (ok, I replaced the broken inverter/charger/transfer switch for $160) and now - three days of no-power runtime and time-shifting a whopping 120w away from peak. 🤓 It only saves $60/year but it's kind of fun since I have the storage capacity already.</p>

I have never worked with <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> before but read a lot to prepare. So far my setup will look something like this: </p><p>Homelab running Ubuntu server with cockpit, as well as XFCE with xrdp for Remote Desktop to ease myself into using <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a>. I am planning on running Plex, Immich, Pihole, and Home Assistant in the beginning, setting up one after another in that order. </p><p>Any tips & tricks or thoughts that can help me on this journey? </p><p>Wish me luck..</p>

As I read it, they seemed to be asking the user to agree that all parties understood and accepted this.</p><p>I could be wrong, of course, and I'm sure the author of your link would say I am (under their subheading "What about federation?" where they seem to think what I describe is handled implicitly, and that's fine for all parties), but nevertheless it's food for thought for me, in how I might compose/adjust a ToS agreement.

Jason Weatherly<p>So, wrote up a quick guide on how to put a PiKVM onto a VLAN via `systemd-network`. It works though I'll admit the quality is slightly lower than normal due to beers...</p><p><a href="https://blog.jamesthebard.net/posts/pikvm-and-vlans/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">blog.jamesthebard.net/posts/pi</span><span class="invisible">kvm-and-vlans/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelab</span></a> <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/pikvm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pikvm</span></a></p>
Jason Weatherly<p>Okay, everything is buttoned up again, only almost stripped a rack hole out.
