At that size, for that speed, I wonder why wifi was discarded. Depends on the components connecting, I guess, but if each component is custom I imagine adding a small wifi chip to each could be smaller overall?

The dude raises some valid points.

One way to avoid looking like a fool is to look beyond just the headline- This video starts out by saying they have more Linux installs than windows, across various VMs on SBCs.

I’m just happy to be doing my part to make copilot worse.

Wanna talk about poisoning LLMs? Just assume the coffee in my repo is in any way good.

I’ve got the R3, love it.

Looking at that, I reckon it’s easier just to pay for all the streaming services.

At this point, it’s easier to just pay for all of the streaming services.

Have a look at the Bananapi options, especially the R3. (Or the R2, it’s a bit more mature)

It’s a very capable single board computer with onboard managed switch, including SFP cages. If you want, you can buy antennas and utilise the wifi 6, or get a dedicated access point.

PFsense, openwrt, et al all have images. I think some people also run the mikrotik OS on it. It’s powerful enough to run as a hypervisor so you can chop and change between all of these if you want.

It gets bonus points for accepting 5G modems for failover.

I think about this in my workplace. I’m not on the IT side of things, but I do have more of an interest than most. And wow, it seems a mess.

I think the problem lies with all these nifty solutions being implemented, and then suddenly it’s someone’s job to tie them all together, which they get halfway through doing before they are called off to do some other task… There doesn’t seem to be an overall architecture, or a coherent model of how information should flow around the business. I’m guessing you come across this a lot? How does that get solved?

I didn’t realise this was hard. It’s been a hot minute since I added a library, but I’m pretty sure I just clicked the libraries tab, typed the library name into the search bar, and clicked add to project.

Ooh, self hosted location tracking? Tell me more!
