Heating my office with xmrig
Heating my office with xmrig - Lemmy.World
Figured you guys might enjoy my little winter project. I have an always-on server + my gaming PC in my office set up with xmrig. I have electric baseboard heaters in my apartment (PNW, USA) so as long as I’m not heating my office past my normal setpoint the electricity is essentially free. How I set this up: - ESP32 flashed with ESPHome + MCP9808 temperature sensor takes a reading of the ambient temperature every minute and sends it to homeassistant - Homeassistant feeds that temperature (as well as a controllable setpoint) to a python script - Python runs a PID controller based on the room temp and setpoint - I use the XMRIG http API to pause/resume and dynamically control the number of threads used for mining Here’s the result: image [https://files.catbox.moe/0bhlgj.png] Keeping my room +/- 0.5 degrees from the setpoint while mining If you guys are interested I can post more details. I’ve had my baseboards off for over a month now with outside temps below freezing.
what are you all doing for secure DMS?
The prevalence of touchscreens has probably resulted in a decrease in average fingernail length

I feel like I used to see a lot of women with super long nails struggling to use their touchscreen phones. I’m sure at least some of them have chosen slightly shorter nails to make it easier.
Dedicated NAS or Nextcloud server for home lab?
Dedicated NAS or Nextcloud server for home lab? - Lemmy.world
I’m looking for suggestions. I have a rack in my office with up to 4U space available. I’m looking to set up a backup and storage solution to try and break free from services such as dropbox & google drive. I’d also love to run a few other things like homeassistant and potentially even Klipper for my 3d printer. I’d also like it to be reasonably quiet if possible. So what would you recommend? I could get something like a dell poweredge and add HDDs + replace the fans with noctua to keep the noise down or go with a dedicated NAS like synology. Any other recommendations?

Why YSK: it doesn’t matter how original you might think you are, they have heard them before. Numerous times in fact. If you’re in the habit of making name-based jokes as soon as you meet someone you should stop. At best you’re mildly annoying the person, at worst you’re preventing what could have been a great friendship before it even begins. Sincerely: someone named Jesse.

What's your favorite alternate launcher?

Just got a new work phone: Galaxy S22. Wanted a pixel but it was out of stock in our internal allocation. Already tired of samsung’s UI and interested in something new. So what do you like? Bonus points if it works with android enterprise’s profile mode dual app drawers.

I’ve been having weird first layer issues for months. My z offset seemed all over the place and I found myself manually adjusting each print. Had no clue what the issue was until I noticed my bltouch wasn’t perfectly straight. Turns out the mounting screws had loosened slightly leaving ~1/2mm play in its location compared to the nozzle. Tightened then up and printed my first absolutely perfect first layer in months.
Ok - here's what I'm thinking for the rotating shaft seal:
Basically integrating a "packing box" like what's used for boat propellers

Just a quick hobby + learning project. If people are interested I am happy to post more pics. PLA exterior + TPU seals + Nylon (COPA) bushings. Everything is 3d printed except the hardware & motor. The hose adapters have 1/4 NPT ends on them. NPT has a tapered thread so I found that I could screw them in partway by hand then heat them up slightly with a soldering iron to soften the PLA then screw them in the rest of the way. Makes a nice watertight seal despite the roughness of the 3d printed threads. If they start leaking I can unscrew them (leaving behind threads perfectly molded to the fittings) then add some pip seal tape and put them back in. What do you guys think?
