Oh that is very slick! I have the larger SFF (not USFF). Maybe I should look into getting a 3D printer next
1U server chasie for Dell Optiplex
Hey all I am looking for some ideas to make my Dell SFF optiplexs rack mounted. Has anyone ever got them into a 1U chasie?
I'm in the early stages of redoing my homelab hardware. I have two Dell Optiplexs and I want to fit them in my rack / make them more aesthetically pleasing but without taking up any more space.
The only reason I'm not looking to replace them with a USFF / mini server is because I like being able to have two drives and pci slot for Ethernet ports but I'm willing to hear out other cost effective options. My rack is a short depth rack.
Homeassistant battery operated candles
Hey all!
Did some research on this but does not seem to be too much out there on this subject. Does anyone have any battery operated candles they have successfully integrated with Homeassistant?
The number one solution I see is buying candles with a remote and then using a IR bridge to turn them on and off. I'm not sure how reliable this ost or where to start.
I think I would need a IR bridge for at least two different parts of the house that then connect back to home assistant and then I would also need candles with IT remotes that I could control from the hass bridge.
I use Cloudflares email routing.
Point my domains name servers to Cloudflares and enable email routing. I can then create any email address in that domain and have it forward to any of my email addresses. Works great when signing up for accounts. The only thing you can't do is fire off email FROM said email address
Edit: can to can't
Any tips for fishing drops? fireblocks?
Hey all! Looking to run to CAT5e in my house and preparing for what I need to do. My biggest hurdle right now is trying to see if I have a fire block and the best way to go about drilling a hole in it. With the amount of runs i'm doing to this spot I doubt I can use preexisting holes.
Thought about something like that - Just need to figure out how to get that convo started
Just to vent - nowhere to run
Used to be an avid runner, ran plenty of 5K's up to marathons and then got into the ultra scene and ran everything up to and including 100 milers
Just moved in the middle of nowhere and this is nothing but farms. No pavement or dirt roads to run on either. I have a park with a half mile loop about 20 min. out and that's it.
Its nice being out where I am but sucks not having a place to run.
