Anyone who runs Ampere? 1/3 of TDP of an old EPYC with half the PCIe for 2000€ does not seem that bad.

I recently switched from a Mac to Linux. Learning that it is recommended to use a Trezor to boot your OS was not on my bingo card.

TIL systemd has a container and VM manager built-in https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/machinectl.html This is actually kind of cool -- it is an abstracted chroot, meaning that it consumes Linux folder structures instead of a single format like Docker images. No more Dockerfiles, just use a file manager.

I paid someone else to bootstrap the frontend, so to check on the work I did a status page for demo.homestakeros.com during the weekend. Coincidentally, I learned new React hotness after like 8 year break from it. I also broke the mobile view. I still hate frontend development with frameworks.

Today also, we ran into partial network outage because one of the ISPs that we use recycled their IPs and dynamic DNS failed to update: https://github.com/ponkila/homestaking-infra/discussions/60 #buidlinpublic

Today in homestakeros.com was triaging of SSV.network to be added onto the wizard. SSV lets the homestaker to lease their RPC endpoints for DVT users, incurring extra APR for stakers. https://github.com/ponkila/nixobolus/pull/32

New hardware for one of our homestaking computers arrived! NVMe is the fastest memory you can get. You need these because blockchain applications are I/O bound. While in theory these drives read and write 8GB/s, the reality is different -- when the drives are used constantly, performance drops dramatically.

This is a feature that I'm very excited on HomestakerOS.com -- a consolidated view into your infrastructure that shows how the nodes link together.

This feature I don't like. Why upload my avatar to imgur? I would rather have it on IPFS.

Liking this feature, first time I'm seeing instructions to scan the QR code with the actual camera app rather than give the app the permissions.
