New NAS. Seems to work. Thanks Jeff Geerling for the video.
My new blinken lights project. Going to be using a pi zero for the brain. I love the wooden case.
My latest build is an Amiga Stereo Digitiser. I am no SMD soldering expert, in fact Im a noob so its interesting. I am awaiting on two 22nF caps to get it finished and I need to fix a resistor I accidentally "desoldered" when soldering the 7414 on. And the two RCAs need to go on.
The reason for building this? When I bought my A1000 in 1986 I also bought a Perfect Sound unit to play with. Now I have got an A1000 again, I thought it would be cool to have a digitiser for it.
Replace my Gen 1 Ryzen 7 OpenStack all in one server with this ZimaBlade SBC "NAS" kit using CasaOS and docker.
A therapeutic afternoons build. 5 ZX81 composite mod boards. Boards from JLCPCB and all the components from Jaycar.
I am begging software projects to release programs as tarballs or plain old static binaries. I don't know what a Helm chart is. I am not installing an entire Kubernetes cluster. Docker breaks LXC and firewalls and is constantly breaking for mysterious reasons. I would rather submit myself to hours of `./configure && make && make install` frustration than try to hack through the endless hellscape of containerized deployment systems.
didn't happen often but oh buoy when it did 😆

so liberating
#phone #slamAfter 36 years, I finally have an Amiga 1000 again. PS: The Parceiro II+ is awesome.
Another Project I finally completed last week was the Altair-Duino i bought last year. A very cool reproduction of the Altair that uses an Arduino to emulate the core of the 8800 and interfaces with the front panel to give the authentic use interaction.
