Does the announcement or article specify if this something that will be able to be used in-lieu of prometheus node_exporter? It'd be nice to have a built-in way to ship logs and metrics without having to deploy additional tooling on every server.

E: further digging says not yet but its intended to be laying the base layer for that functionality

    I'm surprised to see so much response to that bit. I feel like I've seen that on forums or newsboards for a long time for any question relating to something that can be repurposed after some amount of time. Really just a stand-in forsomething that's likely been asked before.

    Hopefully this is a fit for this community (for getting value out of a self-hosted RSS aggregator/reader).

    I'm looking for a list of high-value feeds to subscribe to or some alternative ideas to use RSS for in $current_year such as subscribing to a youtube channel without being logged in/directly using the frontend.

    +1 to beelink but be careful of sketchy resellers. Their website has a direct link to their actual 1st party Amazon storefront that can be tricky to pin down.

    I have a fleet of 5 n100/n150 beelinks running k8s that works perfectly well for a super low power homelab. I also replaced the stock m.2 ssds with patriot low power ones but I don't think the juice is worth the squeeze on that with current pricing.

    My UPS has a custom built NAS (low tdp ryzen pro and 4 spinny disks), switch, firewall, 3 mini PCs, raspberry pi) plugged into it that are all under decent load and it reports 80W draw. It's honestly incredible how far computers have come and how we're living in an age of apartment sized homeland.

    I wish there were good alt-shells on Linux. Murex and Nushell are both still pretty nascent to actually use (not for portable scripts but just general day-to-day tasks) - and if it's something you care about it's annoying that Nushell is MIT-licensed instead of a free license, which kind of also precludes zsh.

    I genuinely kind of miss working a job that required using Windows because PowerShell is genuinely nice to use for throwaway tasks and working in a shell to do things like parsing json, fetching data from a http server, whatever.

    I'd rather the hell of device attestation and TPM stay on Windows and away from Linux. I like having my PC be my computer rather than not be allowed to use hardware/software at the behest of some corporation who can arbitrarily decide I no longer get access.
