RE: https://hachyderm.io/@badnetmask/116432248383092547
Update on the lab rack decision: I started printing the Lab Rax. It has the minimum size that I need (5U) and can be expanded (up to 10U). It also has a very strong community behind it, which will make it very easy to find parts.
I'll be sure to post photos when I'm done.

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@badnetmask/115906811590788658
Well, it's the end of an era: my 3 Lenovo M720q are now a full Talos Linux cluster, Proxmox is gone, and the Framework Desktop has been repurposed as a dedicated game station running Bazzite.
Most likely I will migrate from my old Razer laptop to the Framework Desktop, and make it my only workstation, but not today.

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@badnetmask/115786742434227283
Hey folks, if anyone ever followed my blog post about enrolling the Talos UEFI keys into the Lenovo M720Q Tiny, you might want to look at it again.
I realized I forgot one step, which is completely optional, and may vary according to your security posture, but doing so provides better security.
After you enroll the Talos key, the BIOS switches to "User Mode", which allows the OS to change the keys. Ideally you should go back into the BIOS and change to "Deployed Mode". This way you can only change the keys by physically booting the machine.
Sorry about that.

@badnetmask I know the keyboard I want, but it seems they don't actually make it anymore.
I've got an ANSI layout Nuphy Air 60 with brown switches, and it's pretty good... not too loud, 60% size, low profile, hotswap Cherry-style switches in case I fancy a change, does multiple BlueTooth connections, has a 2.4Ghz dongle and even does USB-C wired connection!
However switching between the ANSI layout on that and ISO layouts on all my other devices is bending my brain (there is an extra key on an ISO layout, so I'm missing some punctuation that's normally easily accessible) so I want an ISO version.
Whilst they do list a UK ISO layout on some parts of their website, it's never in stock and I've never seen one on Youtube or anything. Shame as it's a reasonably dope keyboard and sensibly priced.

@badnetmask @rachel I quite like #Excalidraw - gives nice handwritten/whiteboard vibes

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@badnetmask/115698872870594708
Home lab architecture update: two of the Lenovo boxes in the picture below became Talos nodes, together with the Framework Desktop. The third Lenovo became a Proxmox node.
Yep, I'm back on the Proxmox bandwagon.
Now I have a bit of everything: Talos running Kubernetes, Proxmox running VM/LXC and Raspberry Pi running Docker.
At some point the three Raspberry Pis are going away, and the services are going to be distributed between Talos and Proxmox, then they are going to become back-end compute for shenanigans (like a Home Assistant dashboard, for example).

@badnetmask @mmeier @homelab I have two HP EliteDesk Mini and a Dell OptiPlex Micro, all running Proxmox headless.
most of these so-called "1-liter" PCs ship with CPUs in the 35-watt range, though you can get 65-watt ones which will be louder if you make them work hard.
I don't know about AMD yet, but with Intel CPUs it's possible in Linux to tell it how much power it can use for short & long periods, so if you want to limit noise and power consumption, that's at least possible. not sure about BSD.
as far as expandability, Dell tends to skimp on NVMe slots. HP EliteDesk Mini and ProDesk Mini often have 2. I like to put an Optane stick in one NVMe slot and use it for swap and partitions like /var/log.
HP also has a lot of little option daughterboards, such that you can add a NIC or a high-speed USB port with PD in (and then get a USB NIC with PD in and power your PC thru it).
you can also get cards for the m.2 wifi slot which accept a tiny NVMe drive, or add a couple SATA ports, or add a NIC (which you then have to mod the case to add).
be aware that if you get a DDR4 #1LPC, you are limited to 64GB of memory.

Macrodroid is very bad at variables and fetching data.
(Better make everything a global var lol)
I still have a #old #Tasker version installed cause it helps with fetching #Poweramp trackids...
Shame arlosoft is too busy.
On the flipside #Tasker has issue with staying in RAM at times
And then there is #XPosedEdge which has its own set of issues..
Tasker has way more plugins too.
These programscan enable simple #webapps to (inter)act wih your device.
Pretty neat

@badnetmask Eu uso #Ubuntu e tenho trabalhado com #UbuntuServer e #Debian, estou querendo aprender mais sobre ambiente RHEL. Por isso quero subir uma VM pra teste e pensando em trocar do meu note para Fedora.

@badnetmask Also another thing that shocks me is that #Harvester has changed out its base distribution away from K3OS to the enterprise licensed SLE Micro?? Especially shocking given that its an open source project, and the ease of availability of both MicroOS and LeapMicro.
There is reassurances that users of Harvester will not need to license or register this copy of SLE when explicitly used under Harvester. But this is under an enterprise license and very much not open source, directly conflicting with criteria 8 "License Must Not Be Specific to a Product" of the OSI definition of open source.
This is a real black mark on a project i otherwise thought highly of.

Woohoo! I did a new thing!
I now have my own domain name: badnetmask.dev, registered with Porkbun. Soon I will be using it for all sorts of crazy things. Stay tuned!
In the mean time, you can check out this neat page with all my links. It has been deployed using a Little Link container, as an Azure Web App, automated using Terraform. Eventually I will blog about this adventure.
Welcome to my new "homepage"!

I've been using a selfhosted #opengist server for years and love it! -

I wrote a very basic #Ansible playbook to help people set up #PiHole with #DNSOverHTTPS (#DoH) directly installed on a Debian-based host (Raspberry Pi or small VM). It's available on my GitHub repo. I hope you find it useful! #HomeLab #SelfHosted

@badnetmask I love my #Caséta system, but the dimmer switches need a redesign because they are hard to use in the dark by feel.
-
@badnetmask My experience with #ZWave was that it NEED a mesh to function. Installing 1 or 2 devices to try them out won't give consistent performance. I ended up going with #Zigbee instead, but beware of cheap China-sourced equipment - my failure rates with #Sonoff and #Aqara motion sensors was quite high. #Matter is supposed to fix a lot of the platform compatibility issues...as soon as it's ready.
For switches, my #Lutron #Caseta system (NOT Zigbee) has been 100% rock solid.

@badnetmask I got a pair of Zigbee extenders from IKEA that helped me with reach. Otherwise, I’ve been waiting for Matter / Thread to get settled before I buy anything else.
