  • For some reason you are just having a bad moment mate, rejoice! Nothing is dead.
    I mean Reddit is still alive, like it or not I don’t think it’s going to change any time soon.
    Lemmy does its own things, sure it didn’t grow as expected but it is doing good, those things take time and we should not expect Lemmy to become the new Reddit.

    For me the main issue on Lemmy is the number of thread/community/people that want to talk absolutely about Reddit, at this point this is just counterproductive it’s like people can’t get over it, the first few months it was okay but now it’s just non sense.



  • No expert here, but you should check on Protectli, they have good stuff, small form factor(mostly), fanless, serial com which is convenient in some situation.
    I have one (intel not amd) that is currently not in use for personal reason but when it was running, I found the hardware very reliable, silent and not hot.
    Prices are not as good as some cheap hardware you can find on Aliexpress or Amazon but somehow I trust more company like Protectli than any noname because at least with Protectli devices it is possible to install coreboot to override the default bios. (BTW when people check the bios on their cheap hardware then things are getting weird, which version it is …, doesn’t sound like something I would trust to manage a network, just saying).



  • Geekworm Pi 3 case (also fits Pi 2)

    Exact, it fits to the Pi3 and Pi2 but there is a little inconvenience with the Pi2 because the power lights are on the left while the wholes on the case are on the right, so with the Pi2 you don’t see the green/red light. The rest of the case fits well.
    It’s not a big deal but still one must be warned.

    I’ve also ordered some extra strips of cooling pads and added them to the bottom side of the CPU and the RAM chip beneath - so that heat gets sent to the case as well.

    Nice trick.
