Am Freitag ist es wieder soweit. Die Kieler Linux und Opersource Tage öffnen Ihre Türen.

Ich bin dieses Jahr für die #lugfl wieder dabei und stelle mein Bladecenterprojekt mit #computeblade für den #raspberrypi vor.

Sehen wir und dort?

Unfortunately due to tariffs we are not able to purchase more Compute Blades for our GreenWare project without paying 20% in import tariffs. As a state and federally tax exempt organization, it’s unfortunate that we are being taxed by our government. ☹️

Donnerstag abends NVMe Storage für mein Bladecenter in Enge Sande bestellt. Das sind ca 400km mit dem PKW. In ein paar Minuten soll die Lieferung da sein. Kann mir mal jemand sagen, warum ein Brief von Hamburg nach Flensburg (<200km) immer noch Teilweise 10 Tage braucht?

Aber mein Bladecenter nimmt langsam gestalt an. Fehlen nur noch 7 #cm4 oder #cm5 und das Gehäuse.
#computeblade

My #HomeLab has grown way beyond the clean and simple setup from 1.5 years ago. Time to optimize — but let’s be real, a HomeLab is never done.

#RaspberryPi #FritzBox #Unifi #IkeaSkadis #Skadis #ComputeBlade #Selfhosted #ZigBee #SmartHome #HomeAutomation

Another upgrade for the #Homelab: #3Dprinted a mount for the #ComputeBlade to get it onto the #IKEA #Skadis board. Simple, but solid for now!

Well, that was smooth—mounted my existing NVMe and #RaspberryPi CM4 to the #ComputeBlade, powered it via PoE, and it booted right up. Took 5 minutes.

Hardest part? Designing a mounting case for it in the next days.

#homelab

Finally got my #Kickstarter-backed #ComputeBlade! Replacing my last #RasperryPi 4 node in the #K3S cluster—now all worker nodes are PoE-powered.

First pass at 10” rack modular design derivative of Uptime Lab’s blade runner for #computeblade. I’ve got a few things to iron out before the blades arrive, airflow alignment, rear rack supports, and getting it printed in something better than PLA.

The #computeblade heatsink looks better sanded.

Looks unlikely I'll get the rest of my order, though. One of the blades is bad, too.
