If you are using android there is RCX ( https://github.com/x0b/rcx ) as a frontend to rclone. Rclone can also be used in termux. Not sure about apple.
Looks good but the last update was in 2021. Is this still being worked on?

You could look into it but I think the reason laundry chutes aren't made anymore has more to do with kids getting stuck in them and less to do with fire code (after all, stairways are chutes connecting floors).
Got stuck in a clothes a chute growing up, can confirm that those things are evil.
But the main reason they’re gone now is that people put the laundry on the same floor as the bedrooms in modern homes.
When I worked with racks in datacenters, we usually put the network gear facing the other side of the servers, so there was no need to cross cables for the rack depth.
I find this really disturbing. On the one hand this looks really nerdy and cool but then I see the immense amount of hardware that also relies on power... so much power. This is completely unnecessary but then I also see the pictures of an F150.. so yeah it makes sense. I have to categorize this as a (un)typical American person that does not care about the environment. Do like the fact that he runs a RIPE probe thoug…
I don't even know why I'm replying to you, but here we go
So I should ditch all this and rely on cloud services I guess. Cloud services are hosted in magic land where they don't use any power, right? If you use any cloud services, you are just as bad as me.
I have 17kw of solar on the roof. As we type this, I'm exporting 10kw of power back to the grid. I generate enough solar to completely cover all of my electricity usage, and during the night when I'm pulling from the grid, my power plan is sourced 100% from wind or solar.
All of this is my hobby, but also helps me learn skills for my job. That job is 100% work from home, which means I don't drive pretty much at all. I'm sorry my F150 offends you, which has less than 10,000 miles on the clock despite being 5 years old. That same F150 also gets better miles per gallon than a lot of regular cars on the road. My wifes Ford Escape (A compact "SUV" if you can call it that" gets worse milage than my truck. But I'm sure if you saw a Ford Escape, you'd be fine with it right?
Where in the post did I say how much power all this uses? You said "power... so much power" yet you don't even know how much power it uses...
I won't even go into detail how I've removed over 1000sqft of concrete on my property, how I've planted an 800sqft native wildflower meadow, have a bat house, use rainwater for plants, etc etc. But no I'm just such a terrible American. Grow up.

Amen to this. I moved house recently and the only things I did were running CAT6 from where the internet enters the house, up to a PoE switch in the loft that then has a few Wifi6 APs connected to that. Everything is wifi (all cameras, smart switches etc, office laptop, a single RPi4 for "projects" and so on) and all seems fine. The only device that is directly connected via ethernet is a headless gaming desktop that…
My cameras are still POE (UniFi Protect), but i had already run the cables for it, so not much point i replacing them just for the sake of moving to WiFi. My "server" is also wired, as is my Hue Bridge, Tado Bridge and other "IoT" devices that doesn't support wifi, but when it comes to user accessible machines there is exactly one, which is my "go to" machine in case the router/switch dies and i can't get on the WiFi…

I'm 100% with you. Would love to see photos of those meadow and bat house, they sound lovely.
Its not quite as green as that right now, since we have a pretty bad drought here in Houston, but it will come back.
I had to make the small fence as it just kept trying to spread out. The fence is made from scrap 2x4's ripped down the middle to make 2x2's, and the rails are old scrap cedar pickets pressure washed and ripped down

I'll have to take some pictures of the bat house, maybe I should just make a post on all this, maybe that will please them

The Pis are using GPS receivers to serve as NTP servers on the local network. The specific appear to use GPIO pins. You would not be able to wire these to the ESXI machines as readily. You typically also want time-sensitive workloads running on metal, as there are all sorts of potential complications with virtualized time. I am sure there are PCIe solutions that could easily go into a more standard form-factor machin…
GPS modules use SPI which you can get a standard USB serial adapter for $2 on eBay. As the title suggests, it's overkill. Basically it's using the Rpi as SPI adapter. Edit: USB to TTL costs like $3.5, it's like a standard RS232 serial port but much simpler and faster.
Your accuracy will be less otherwise.
But why? I looked at the page but could find no understanding of what he gained from doing all this? I have a single wifi router and power everything through that and still have much faster bandwidth than the author does. It seems like a lot of energy, time, and effort (especially for maintenance) for something with minimal gains. I get 1 Gbit down and 500 mbit up and even in the worst signal rooms it only drops to 6…
I'm confused, what's faster than what?

How are you liking Unifi Protect?
I also run a HomeBridge to bridge protect to Apple HomeKit, to have a backup of the footage.
