Right now I just run dual 1080p. I plan on upgrading to a 120Hz+ 1440p ultrawide at some point, but priorities... My entire desk setup is currently consuming 12 watts with the PC shut off. That's ~90W just from the PC.

Perfect, I don't need to run the fans anymore!

Seriously though - we have 5 kids, and feeding the little shits is expensive, so we freeze a lot of things for storage. I thought for certain the freezers would be power hogs compared to an idling PC, but I was very surprised to be proven wrong.

Next up... Measuring my server cluster 😬

Times like these I'm glad I live in the mountains.

What a goof. US is getting played so badly… He’s losing 1D chess.

Trump is the pigeon shitting on the board.

I just earned a 3-day ban from reddit for describing what we did to Nazis in the 40s. Welcome.

I've used this for three houses now. It's incredibly handy. I'm still not very good at it, but I did finally figure out how to make walls from a floorplan without having to do them individually.

Somebody, for the love of god, please, just once, I want to see a recording of another leader laughing in Trump's face. It would bring me much joy...

But it has a slow screen refresh rate, which makes it less than ideal for watching videos, playing games, or other actions.

I love how this is one of the first criticisms, as if that wasn't the entire point of this device.

MediaTek

Ah yes, I forgot THAT'S why I didn't go for this thing.

iptables is free....

My "nice" 2008 Toyota Sienna minivan is older now than my "old" 1991 Land Cruiser was when my dad handed it down to me in 2006.

I have a couple 7 year-old EFRX WD Reds. Bought them new, before the whole SMR vs CMR issue came about. No issues. Solid drives.

Good point, those are nice to have. Most of my cluster has vPro capabilities, so I can just log in remotely regardless of the OS's condition.

That's actually a thing some people do, usually with IFTTT or Home Assistant.

FX File Explorer has a local web-access feature. Start it on your phone and access via local IP, then just turn it off when you're done.

Don't use on public wifi, it's http-only.

LiPo batteries should be stored at 3.7V/cell. That's basically ~50% capacity (fully charged is ~4.2V/cell). I have several LiPo cells for my RC stuff, some nearing 10 years old, that are still perfectly usable because of this storage method.

Just once, I want one of these international leader gatherings to have everybody laughing in trumps face, in person. Please, just once...

laughs in sideloaded

Shooting from the hip here, but it sounds like the storage chip may be dying. I have a 128GB Pixel 1XL that crashes if I use more than ~20GB of space.

tlp has more features available for Thinkpads, specifically, so there's that. I'm thinking more of a laptop form factor but built as a portable server, with the battery specifically designed to be a secondary power source (like a UPS) instead of the primary power source.

Of course something like that would be incredibly niche, so it makes sense that it's not really a thing.

If the laptop has a way to limit charging to, say, 70% in order to not turn into a spicy pillow, it would be viable. I have an older HP Elitebook 8440p laptop running as a server of sorts in my cluster, but the battery is no longer capable of holding a charge at all because it's always plugged in. I might get a Thinkpad to replace it as there are modifications for those to limit the battery charge level.
