Currently trying to find a screwdriver set that went missing after boxing up a bunch of old consoles. I don't remember putting it there, nor do I want to open and unpack everything again ๐Ÿ˜…

My wall mounted split systems were <$1000 AUD each, 3.5kw. Found a sparkie and a fridgie to do the install, set us back around $3000 for two systems installed.

Great units, added some wifi dongles and tied them into my home-assistant for remote / out of home control & scheduling.

Probably the best addition to our home currently, don't know how we lived here using pedestal fans and gas heating.

I wanted to get more ram for my notebook however it's soldered to the board with no extra DIMM or storage options.

It's an old satellite from Toshiba, 4gb ram, dual core intel, 64gb emmc. Serves it's purpose running a bare bones (ish) install of Nix.

Really hate ewaste hardware.

Yeah NUT is the package I've been looking at, and looks decently integrated into NixOS just, getting around to configuring it is another time sink.

My 1920R and an unused 15A Dell rackmount (h967n maybe) came with my rack, I've got no reason to have two UPS running nor do I want to replace the batteries in another UPS or have a 15A socket installed in the house just yet. But man it's tempting to piggy-back it off the 1920R for shits and giggles.

Waiting on some parts to arrive from AliExpress - once they arrive I'll be able to decommission one of my servers and have all my services running off one board.

Ahh the old sesh-b-q. Serving up snowcones on the daily.

I've wanted to implement something like that with my 1920R UPS for my rack but haven't found the time to commit to antiquated hardware.

Was enough of a hassle dealing with the expired SSL certs on the management card yet getting software running on one of my machines to communicate with the UPS.

All things considered my two servers chilling chew around 60w on average, not taking into account my POE cameras or other devices. The UPS should run for over a day without getting close to draining its batteries (have a half populated ebm too).

Not the same form factor and around twice the price, erying es intel motherboards are a steal at their current price. You do need RAM / Storage / ATX PSU they end up a much more performant' piece of hardware.

The Q1J2 (20 threads) board I have despite it being an ES chip has given me no issues. Running most of my home services on the board with a coral nvme m.2 + nvme + sata storage. Can even do dual ethernet via the a+e m.2 and add-in more sata storage via m.2 to 6x sata board.

I've got a pi somewhere in the mounds of boards at home, but would rather spin up another container / pod / nspawn on my erying board vs go through the motions of setting up a pi.

Honestly looks like the carton was in the sun letting them sag like that, the "air" in the bag is probably nitrogen or another gas to help keep them shelf stable. It will also help protect them during shipping keeping the bag rigid.

Story about the sun, we had cartons of ddr4 sitting in the Western Australia sun during CV19, not for a long duration of time. When we unpacked the plastic clamshells were warped, some to the point where the modules were escaping the packaging. No damage to the products, just an annoyance.

Ahh sad to hear, meds (ritalin) has helped me so much. Both personal and professional life, I still go off the deep end with some things and obsess over others but I'm more alert, can focus on tasks better and am happier with what I'm capable of.

Since the meds I've started scripting / programming, renovating and cabling under and in the ceiling of my house. Personal stuff is just that, but things are better than ever in that area.

I hope your managing your ailment and that you find something that works for you.
