@rasterweb woah! What happened there?

@rasterweb ah! I was trying to figure out if that’s a silicone casing gone wrong… and wondering why is the nozzle oozing sideways… it is essentially a large lump of failed print ☹️☹️☹️

This is why you shouldn't be obsessed with Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman (RMS), Stormy Peters, Alan Cox, and other figures in the open-source or Unix or Linux communities. 😂

@nixCraft what’s that saying, never meet your heroes 🤣

@killyourfm i am not following the series after they yanked it from Netflix, did they can the series or killed him off (it’s okay to not reveal spoilers)

piofthings,
@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@killyourfm boo… they ended the series…

piofthings,
@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@killyourfm I am bit of a sucker for all things Star Trek so I gobbled it all up! That said I couldn’t care for yet another subscription service! So I’ll wait for it to come to Netflix. I absolutely loved Ansel Mount as captain (in the Discovery season)! Might just get the DVD releases of strange new worlds and hack them up!

Thanks for this https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2021/taking-control-pi-poe-hats-overly-aggressive-fan @geerlingguy ! My Octoprint Pi has piped down now! oof, what's with the defaults :D

Watching the publishing demo and just imagining the bill on that application. It has to be astronomical.

@khalidabuhakmeh the only thing i want to know if the boot loader is locked 😉😉😉

@khalidabuhakmeh as a small seed/self funded startup, at about 25-30 Jira+Confluence+Bitbucket accounts you are calculating will it be cheaper to run a self hosted Gitlab server on a cheap vpc… speaking from experience! But I guess we are not the targets!

piofthings,
@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@khalidabuhakmeh oh yeah, that was just the starter! AWS has a Jupyter notebook thingy! Someone started an instance and closed it when done! Two months and $$$ later, apparently that started some neptune DB instance that was still running! Ditto with an LLM thing. Service started, project done, Service stopped! Two months later something called OpenSearch is costing $$$!!!

Has anyone managed to use the #PiMoroni NVMe base board by directly loading OS on to the NVME drive? Or do I really have to do the dance of loading OS on SD card first? @geerlingguy @gadgetoid #RaspberryPi

piofthings,
@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@geerlingguy thanks, can I just load OS in the NVME drive like that and expect the Pi to boot straight up? Or do I need to follow the "Installing your OS onto the NVMe SSD" in this guide https://learn.pimoroni.com/article/getting-started-with-nvme-base , to the letter? @gadgetoid

@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@geerlingguy have you experimented with rack mounting RPi 5 with bottom mounted NVMe hat (like the Pimoroni one)? Is a bit niche, but checking to see before I start designing a 3D Printed mount 🫣

piofthings,
@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@geerlingguy i think I’ll use the uctronics shelf but redo the removable trays and 3D print them. Only if their hex nuts were removable and not welded in we could have used smaller hex nuts and maintained the height to fit the front panel!

piofthings,
@piofthings@mastodon.social avatar

@geerlingguy not as pretty, but very functional! Will share the CAD files soon! This is on the Uctronics U6264 rack mount). Also don’t mind my DIY Network rack inside an IKEA Besta cupboard 😂🫣

So I stuck cloudflare in front of all my sites and I am feeling terribly icky about it, because I seem to have lost control of my https certificates. Wonder if Letsencrypt will ever work again because I stupidly set https only and I can't find where to disable the setting. Oh well, Mastodon, let's see if you can ddos me.

Dear advertisers, if your ad on YouTube is longer than 5 seconds and is unskippable, I'll make sure I'll never buy your product. Thankyou! 😠

@elkarrde ditto Apple podcast ads! I think someone repeated shopify 60 times in a 2 minute ad… so I am never using Shopify!

From BBC - Apparently Alder Hey Hospital has banned EVs from one of their carparks.

@Ryanteck @NormanDunbar you can’t logic with the stupid! They are stupid because they are… this ICE industry has now turned into an ICE mafia for survival!

@NormanDunbar @Ryanteck oh geez… missed that… I stopped at “until the sprinkler system is improved” I am like, dude, if you were unfortunate to have an EV battery pack catch fire in the parking lot, sprinkling water would be a lot worse for everyone involved!
