having another one of these in a cluster is not off the table, but for now size is a priority. its all backed up with another router to take over if needed.

so, socialism?

tankie to the rescue

you do if you want more than just a router

not the same class of device though

topton is one of the more “trusted” brands in there. you can get anything from a small dual core celeron to a mobile i7, with two ddr5 slots, m.2 slots, mpcie slots, sata slots… you name it.

it can be quite a punch on a tiny box and it is a very practical all-in-one device, but it does need some tinkering repasting and adjusting out of the box. mine in particular has issues around wol and absolutely needed cooling fans and better thermal paste. ymmv.

here is a popular one.

here is some discussion about these boxes with varying levels of success in using it, its quite good once the kinks are worked out.

this form factor is definetly something if you want a homelab without the hassle, pricetag, size, noise, energy consumption… you can virtualize everything in it if you get one big enough.

i dislike the relative lack of repairability and expandability too.

processing power is more than adequate, and it comes in a tiny practical box, this is my priority atm.

so it can also be my wifi ap, im using virtualized openwrt to make it happen.

the ap i was using is now doing its duty as an extender while the beefier one does firewall, wifi, server, storage you name it…

just got it from aliexpress. though any hardware or mini pc will do, really.

if you want something like this but branded, look into protectli, they make similar devices.

no need to be a programmer to do it!

what are you replacing grafana with?

noice

literally one these with loads of RAM and a wifi card, so i can fit all the shenanigans in one box

chicken and egg kinda problem. mastodon would have benefitted from the influx of users.

quite the opposite for me. bluesky is a centralized platform owned by capital exactly like twitter, thus prone to the same issues.

migrating to bluesky instead of mastodon will just delay the problem.

also.you are too doped up to even move out of the way

international us policy is very similar between republicans and democrats. you guys are already the whole worlds problem. 🌍🧑‍🚀🔫🧑‍🚀

im sorry but trump will be your problem. until the empire decides to turn up the violence dial again that is, which is something both parties do sometimes.

pls make them stop.

cant we like, ddos it until they notice its dogshit?

why are we using it

thats why wed need revolution…
