ah, IT issues... yesterday I tripped a fuse when making dinner (the electric kettle somehow creates a power surge just before boiling, and when the oven runs at the same time it gets tripped).
When I put it back my small rpi server in the living room all of a sudden makes issues. It runs, and I can connect to it from the outside, but somehow not from inside my home network.
But I ping it and it seems to be on... but I just can't seem to ssh onto it anymore.
But what about those #MS_Windows users out there? How about a gzipped tarball, all nicely packaged up so you can distribute around, of a custom built #PuTTY client that will securely connect people to your #Synchronet_BBS over telnet?
More great news on the #rPi front - remote access for #SOHO and Home based networks as simple as a single apt install command!
Give it a try today and let us all know what you think! I'm interested in hearing your thoughts and experiences with this invaluable remote access tool.
Briefly back onto the Farnsworths. Finished both cases, but one of the displays died, and the replacement sent was wrong. So waiting (again) to get the second one running.
Moved the Strowger script and the test card script onto an Internet facing server. Currently, I can only try the test card and remote loop back.
Hmm, after having #nextcloud run on my #rpi for a bit I noticed I really don't need it. (Because the video chat just doesnt work as it should).
Maybe I'll just reset the rpi again and focus on some leaner system.
Maybe I'll try with #xmpp this time. Have to check if that has good voice and screenshare options right now. And maybe a web interface.
I haven't really done anything with that for a decade.
Been playing #MineClone2 on #MineTest as I'm on a #RPi. So far I suck, I think the beginning game is harder on MineTest then #Minecraft. But It's sill fun.
Is there a Minetest package similar to Minecraft but doesn't try to clone it?
I was going to get an #RPi#raspberrypi 5 but then I heard about the Sony deal and the #IPO and I think of all the people who've put hours and hours of their free time into a product which was (?is) #OpenHardware and how the directions of that product will now be subject to shareholder rather than user desires.
Sure, we need to think about sustainability in all things #OpenSource but what's the bet ARM or NVIDIA will buy it out to shutter it?
managed to get The Lounge running on my #RPi, connected to the Synchronet #IRC server also running on there, now I just need to find a way to connect the machine to the outside world.
together with a video conference system (Galène) and a #usenet web interface (rslight) I slowly start to make this usable for hosting my #ttrpg games without discord
Finally I managed to get my 8BitDo SNES controllers to work with my #RetroPie. That was weirdly hard, because on #RPi 3 this just worked. But now I am using my granny RPi 1 with a bluetooth dongle and shit hit the fan.
Anyhow, I could finally play some old Smurfs game with my kid. He just jumped around with a Smurf all the time, so we didn't get far. But that totally rocked.
I'm just now backing up #HomeAssistant and running the updates in preparation for moving its host #RPi 4B power source.
It feels like one of those sliding puzzle things where I'm doing this so I can then move an old laptop now running w/ #PuppyLinux, so I can then re-install my older RPi 1B which now boots from an old #NAS harddrive, so I can re-install #Mosquitto, so I can get my #MQTT msgs propagating again, so I can see #Mastodon toots of door open/close events.
Fun fact: you can make your PiKVM multiport by just hooking it up to a cheap four ports HDMI kvm and hooking up the control serial port to the rpi hub, and setting up macros in kvmd to make it switch ports from the Web UI.
it's everything I ever wanted and the Redfish BCMs in my SuperMicro stuff are starting to feel primitive and clumsy in comparison.
running a #SearXNG docker takes so much ram!
like around 600MB! and out of my 2gb ram #RaspberryPi that's a ton.
I also run a Nextcloud docker and that's around 260MB.
(both when idle).
might have to find an alternative.
Tho at this point, coming from my home WiFi, it doesn't give all that much more privacy since I keep the same IP address.
Do you have any interesting housing suggestions for RPI? I'm looking for inspiration, basically a relatively low-cost solution that would allow me to keep an SSD and an RPI drive in one compact housing.
Possibility to place two SSD drives + a large fan :)
