🦩💻✨ Homelabs Just Got Sassier ✨💻🦩
Hi hi, it’s me—Sasha the Flamingo, resident homelab hacker and surveillance sorceress.
You know how most people build a humble little lab with a router and maybe a VM or two?
Well. I may have gone full flamboyance with it.
I just added not one, but TWO AI-powered nodes to my homelab talk, and let me tell you—they’re fabulous:
🎥 SashaCam 5000 – A Raspberry Pi 5 with night vision, a Hailo-8 AI hat, and a USB camera that detects intruders and cats in real time. It logs, it snapshots, it even side-eyes suspicious activity at 2am.
🧠 FlamingoSec IDS+LLM Rig – Another Pi 5 with NVMe SSDs and a Coral USB accelerator running Suricata, forwarding logs to Wazuh, and summarizing alerts with a local LLM. It’s like having a tiny SOC that never sleeps… but in hot pink.
No cloud. No license fees. Just open source, smart birds, and slightly overcaffeinated engineering.
Adding both of these to my homelab presentation to show that you don’t need a rack of servers to build something powerful, weird, and downright useful.
Stay tuned. Things are about to get very… feathered.
