they are actively bad for web servers if you have any significant amount of traffic

2017-09-21 10:57:51 UTC  

Whoa, I don't need like an actual whole server

2017-09-21 10:57:51 UTC  

mine are running a blog and a shitposty ytmnd-type site

2017-09-21 10:58:01 UTC  

I'll just let the corporations own my data

2017-09-21 10:58:13 UTC  

it's worth it if only for learning imo

2017-09-21 10:58:19 UTC  

also having an actual vm host is nice

2017-09-21 10:58:57 UTC  

you have to buy a lot less hardware if you can just virtualise most of your homelab, and honestly that's how a lot of shit in the real world is done anyway

2017-09-21 10:59:30 UTC  

Yeah

2017-09-21 10:59:32 UTC  

downside: power, if you're only doing a few very lightweight things like dns and irc bouncing arm sbcs will shit on any x86 server out there for power consumption

2017-09-21 10:59:46 UTC  

That's a pretty big thing for me too

2017-09-21 10:59:54 UTC  

The power bills here are insane

2017-09-21 10:59:58 UTC  

All I have in mind is a DNS and IRC bouncer

2017-09-21 11:00:03 UTC  

landlord subsidizes my power bill then it's split four ways

2017-09-21 11:00:06 UTC  

so i'm fine there

2017-09-21 11:01:05 UTC  

I'm using cheapo ($10) hp thin client box at home

2017-09-21 11:01:34 UTC  

has proper sata, gbit ethernet, x86 via nano with very low power draw

2017-09-21 11:02:01 UTC  

granted that ARM SBCs will shit on it when it comes to cpu performance, but still

2017-09-21 11:02:11 UTC  

it could suit your use case

2017-09-21 11:02:22 UTC  

That sounds nice

2017-09-21 11:02:39 UTC  

Though, what would I use the CPU performance an ARM SoC has for?

2017-09-21 11:02:53 UTC  

if it's a thin client, it doesn't matter much

2017-09-21 11:11:01 UTC  

Where'd you get one of those boxes from?

2017-09-21 11:11:24 UTC  

ebay probably

2017-09-21 11:11:32 UTC  

you see them in lots of 10-50 for cheap all the time

2017-09-21 11:11:39 UTC  

singles for $10-$20 a pop

2017-09-21 11:32:18 UTC  

Hmm, guess I'll have to wait and see

2017-09-21 12:41:43 UTC  

Looking for a good multi tool knife

2017-09-21 12:41:54 UTC  

For building and shit

2017-09-21 12:56:11 UTC  

@Thorax, Crash'n Burn model Sanrenmu do a good multitool, just look it up on Ali or GB

2017-09-21 12:56:20 UTC  

Think Ganzo do one too

2017-09-21 13:02:46 UTC  

that's a lot of hz

2017-09-21 13:43:19 UTC  

tell him the unit makes no sense and ask how much that is in km/h because that's the appropriate unit for speed

2017-09-21 14:18:27 UTC  

Correction about comply tips: The T200s also fit zs5 but it's pretty tight

2017-09-21 14:20:26 UTC  

1000 MHz means 1 Mil operations per second. Seems plausible as a unit.

2017-09-21 14:20:34 UTC  

no

2017-09-21 14:20:41 UTC  

hz doesn't mean operation per second

2017-09-21 14:20:48 UTC  

hz means per second

2017-09-21 14:20:52 UTC  

exactly
