What does the underside of that print look like? Maybe nozzle too far from the plate?

Q: Why did you make this? A: The homelab must grow. ¯\(ツ)/¯
Nice.
- Comment on Raspberry Pi 4B 5 days ago:
That depends on your area. These machines are not available new (at least not at a reasonable price) but they are readily available refurbished for around 35€ (4gb ram) to 50€ (8gb ram) per piece in Germany.
- Comment on Holiday Upgrade Disasters 1 week ago:
I have a Unifi router (Unifi cloud Gateway Fiber to be precise), which one you could argue is on the higher end of consumer hardware. But there are also more consumer oriented routers with that capability.
- Comment on Holiday Upgrade Disasters 1 week ago:
I am certainly not an expert by any stretch. But here are my reasons: Ability to isolate some “sketchy” IOT devices into an IOT only vlan, where they are not allowed to access the rest of the network, only the internet and incoming traffic from the other vlans. Having a “clean” vlan/subnet for servers and services where I can give out static IPs without worrying about collisions with client devices
- Comment on Holiday Upgrade Disasters 1 week ago:
Exactly.
- Comment on Holiday Upgrade Disasters 1 week ago:
No. But segregation into vlans has advantages. As this comes with new adresses anyway, might as well tidy up the adress space entirely.
In the end 10.20.20.10 feels much neater than 192.168.174.10.
But yes, you are right, technically the 192.168.xx.yy adress space works the same and has plenty of space for home use.
- Comment on Holiday Upgrade Disasters 1 week ago:
I attempted to move my whole 192.168.x network without vlan to a new 10.x network with vlans. I am still tracking down services and devices where I hardcoded in the old 192.168. ip adresses.
- Comment on Got my girlfriend an Xbox controller and 3D printed a faceplate 1 week ago:
Maybe I don’t get it, but was the point to just have it in a different color?
Why not spray paint the original faceplate?

For audiobooks and podcasts, I always recommend audiobookshelf. Although it is a slightly different usecase than this one here.

Man, I really need to learn ansible…
- Comment on Do you rebuild your container images yourself? 2 weeks ago:
No. I only have a limited amount of time for maintaining my home infrastructure. I chose my battles.
- Comment on Raspberry Pi 4B 3 weeks ago:
There are machines (like the Futro s740) that can be powered by POE as well.
- Comment on Raspberry Pi 4B 3 weeks ago:
Check out the Futro S740. It is more powerful than the pi, uses comparable power and still quite compact.
They can be found (in Germany at least) for 40€ with 4gb RAM and about 50€ for 8gb of ram. Ram is upgradeble, so is storage.
- Comment on What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment? 3 weeks ago:
Your router has a redundant power supply?
- Comment on What is the right way to slice/support this model? I've had this fail to print 4 times on my Ender 3 v3 CoreXZ 3 weeks ago:
Works great for pla though.
- Comment on Options for remote Wake-on-lan. Or I guess wake on WAN. 4 weeks ago:
There are ready made modules for it that slot into an unused PCIe slot into your case. They are available on aliexpress, search for „tuya WiFi pc power switch)

„Curated list“ and „massive list“ rarely go together… this one is not curated.
- Comment on Home Assistant Connect ZBT-2 - A USB adapter that plugs into your Home Assistant system and opens up a world of smart device options 1 month ago:
As far as I understood, this is just a USB interface, you’d still need zigbee2mqtt or ZHA
- Comment on Cams, anyone? 1 month ago:
Sure, but the same is true for embedded timestamps. Just put a black bar over it with the time and date in white. Claim that the system does it that way, done.
- Comment on iRobot’s revenue has tanked and it’s almost out of cash | "Roomba customers are understandably concerned about the impact these current financial troubles might have on their home cleaning robots." 1 month ago:
The rommbas? Maybe. The other ones? They have plenty storage.

I would not say they cloned the design. The first breakthrough for Roborock was the S5, which had LiDAR and a map. Both was not something iRobot had at the time. iRobot simply chose to not innovate in the areas people wanted first. People didn’t like the random cleaning that the roombas did for a long time compared to the structured of almost everybody else.

Really? It can’t do no-go zones and lines without the cloud? Even the „Chinese competition“ can do that without internet.
- Comment on Stop cramming everything onto one Pi: treat your home lab like a tiny ISP - hardware, stack, backups and an update plan 1 month ago:
Sure, but keep write operations on SD cards in mind.
You can also look at thin clients like the Futro s740, or the much more powerful Lenovo tiny series (like the m720q)
- Comment on Got my robot vacuum running Valetudo the other night... 1 month ago:
Well these robots run a Linux distribution as a base. So yes, sure, they will run doom just fine.
- Comment on Looking to buy a cheap but best first 3d printer. Ender3 V3, CR-10 SE, or something else? 1 month ago:
I don’t know if bambulab should be recommended. With the cloud issues and the very closed nature of it. Better recommend Prusa.
- Comment on 3D design software for 3d printing? 2 months ago:
Lots of people use fusion360. It has a free license for hobbyists. Although it is a cloud-first software. There is always the risk of them canceling that free license.
But I have yet to find a good enough replacement…
- Comment on Immich v2.2.0 adds OCR 2 months ago:
Why though? When you run multiple services on your machine, conflicts between these can cause headaches. Updating them is also often not trivial on bare metal. Let alone migrating to a newly set up machine (I suppose you could automate that with something like ansible)
- Comment on Immich v2.2.0 adds OCR 2 months ago:
What would you prefer and why? Bare metal?
- Comment on What is a good self-hosted solution for sharing files with friends? 2 months ago:
Are both parties online at the same time?
Maybe something like this is a good solution: github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole
It will figure out the fastest p2p connection and send even very large files without hassle.
