I just built a mini rack with 3 Thinkcentre tiny PCs I bought for $175 (USD) on eBay. All work great.

Fuck, we were talking to an expert

I always tell the interviewer what they want to hear. Its very obviously a game of correct answers.

I lie on my resume too, but not in ways I can't back up.

For instance, I imply I have a degree because I did go to college for 4 consecutive years for a multitude of degrees. So I have different resumes with different majors depending on what job I'm applying to. I mostly use my CS/Engineering degree now-a-days. I'm able to talk the talk enough that they've never checked or asked for a transcript.

But it sounds more like your job wanted to, on paper, be compliant with workers rights stuff

"We offer a break at X and Y hours."

But had a cultural expectation to not follow it. Which is dumb and they can, in my humble opinion, get fucked. Nursing has a massive burnout rate and shit like that is why.

I think you should recognize you dodged a bullet more than you should think about "lying" in an interview.

Ya know. I don't know. Every state does this as far as I can tell and so I've never questioned it.

If I had to guess, its how the DOT or Highway department shills to Tue new governor

"Hey look boss, we put ya name on da side of Interstate 69 from Illinois!,"

The fact that gods and magic also seemingly exist really fucks me up because its explicit in Tue original book that god is just a tool for smarter people (Foundation) to manipulate dumber people (everyone else).

Obnoxious atheist take? Sure I guess.

But it feels as if someone rebooted harry potter and made the kids saying something nice about trans people or Jews.

Legitimately, if they had just done a "A Foundation Story: Empire" and then just did the genetic dynasty stuff, I don't think any of us would be mad.

But I don't think general audiences have read much Foundation these days so they would have struggled to set it in that universe without an established Foundation Cinematic Universe.

Anyways, I'm super excited for Tue Foundation super cut that's just Empire.

That's what I was thinking too. Ijust feel better having another layer between the open web an my server

True but I'm wanting to run VMs for specific tasks as well (mostly game servers) and I like to virtualize Linux distros I wanna play with as well as keep a running windows VM for the off chance I need windows ever.

Apartment is too small and my partner is too noise sensitive to get away with a rack. So my localLLM and Jellyfin encoder plus my NAS exists like this this summer. Temps have been very good once the panels came off.

Ansible is next on my list of things to learn.

I don't think I'll need to dedicate all of my compute space to K8s probably just half for now.

~~The rats nest is behind it~~

I need to re do some of the wiring.

I have all 4 power cables braided and zip tied together with the single data cable so its nice to pull out and put back into the entertainment center.

Only problem is I only had four 1 foot Ethernet cables and three 7 foot cables. So I used the 1 footers for the Pis and the 7 footers are bundled up as best I could and neatly hidden.

I'm waiting on some color coordinated .5 foot cables from Cables and Kits and I will swap the switch and patch panel. I want the Pis to have that one cable and that's it, but I also want all the patch panel ports to work.
