The pre-charged kits

congrats on the installation! had not heard about of these before, but makes sense. so many questions…

are we talking a 100% closed, pre charged system with both units charged - no drying or long prep needed? anything special to do between the compressor and the air handler on final connection? with supplied gear, how did everything work for you in routng lines and positioning the air handler and compressor units?

have been thinking of adding a minisplit to my server room as additional/failure-state cooling and would usually want to use a pro for the work, but this is intriguing.

again, nice detail oriented weekend work!

Two minutes into its flight, the rocket reached the Kármán line, the internationally-recognised border for space at 100km. A minute later, it reached it’s peak altitude of 121.6km.

I would be happy to just dream in this kind of joy.

wow. thats one hell of an opener for a convo about a whole lotta (*sigh*)… history.

upvote for incubus and ratm! (also transfat)

not only is noscript your general browsing prophylactic, but it will often render js paywalls climbable. I have no other plugin as loved and as useful as noscript - immediate install on any firefox instance.

🤯 seriously.

it was hilarious! a highlight of my day so far.

growing into a power line

dangerous af. Glad you are ok, but a single misstep might have changed the community this got posted into. again, very glad you are ok.

would love to poke at it, but does not seem to work via Tor with JS disabled. :´(

however, thumbs up to the idea of new, “interesting” frontends!

had an awesome time watching this with my 16yo. he asked me where the m.2 slot was. I chuckled.

damn, man… thats such a common issue that bonds us all! congrats on the recovery.

now I’m hungy, dammit! gorgeous, yummy carbs, savoury tomato base and (what looks like) just enough protein to assuage the guilt. this is dullster food porn. way to go, op!

depending on specs it will be a little power hungry, but a good virtualization platform.

yes, the power supplies are likely redundant and the server will complain if they are not both powered.

it will use a VGA connection, but you should be ale to find cheap VGA monitors or cheap adapters.

RAID controllerfor those drives? how many processors and cores? how much RAM? what OS are you planning on running on it? iDRAC included? (if so, likely idrac6, but still usable)

this hardware is very well supported by linux - I have used these older servers extensively. your boss was right to be excited for you. its a great exploration platform that you will be able to do lots of things with.

fire up a live linux distro and get detailed specs on the box - that will guide what you can play with right away.

running almost any flavor of gnu/linux is good soup given the alternative. enjoy!

I dont think consent applies when every lever of power is controlled by the “grab em by the pussy” and “if youre rich, they let you do it” party.

just before musk shot out the seig heil heard around the world, he was effusive about the importance of this election - precisely because this is an absolutely perfect storm of forces against democracy and for technocratic autocracy.

as for enforcing the new status quo… I see no future that does not involve state violence.

great read. a little reptitive in places, but very worthwhile.

good dad!

and thats ok. some great work has been done making the impractical practical. the article was a good think piece. it did its job.

indeed. it will serve you well in many, many… situations.

kudos on poking at the app privacy statement. the real interest in this is going to be running it locally on your own server backend.

so, yeah - as usual, apps bad, bad, bad. but the backend is what really matters.
