Put them in a huge bowl of cold water to stretch the effectiveness. I did exactly this during an unbearable summer and it worked well. As to the comment about heating a room, you’re providing cool air on yourself. Worked well enough for me.
Proxmox is available free. You pay for support and maybe other things with a license, but you can download it and give it a spin at no cost. I just switched to Proxmox around 1m ago when I restarted my homelab project after years on hiatus. I used to use Esxi before Broadcom bought VMware and decided to suck. I like it so far.
It might be overkill for your needs. I’m running it because I want to play with setting up and managing Win Server (I only have experience managing existing servers on Win), so there’s a distinct reason for me to be on Proxmox even though I’m a Mac and Linux person. I agree that it might be overkill for your i5 if you only plan to run one Ubuntu instance on it. However, a lot of homelabbing is about having an environment to try out and learn new skills. If that’s something that’s interesting to you, it might be worthwhile.
Keep in mind that you could also run KVM for virtualization if you find reason for VMs. You’re not limited to Proxmox. And if you see no need for VMs, you already have three devices to do the things you bought them to do.
Try following some of the advice in this thread. Hardware tests if the BIOS supports it. Maybe try underclocking or undervolting the CPU is BIOS supports that. If you can pull a RAM chip and test with just one, then test the chips individually in each slot, that’d be something worth trying. I’m shooting from the hip, but these are things that could help isolate a possible hardware issue.
Yeah, I have Simplenote on my devices so that my plain text notes are always synced. Movies and TV shows we intend to watch, stuff to get at the store, unlock codes for lockers in the mail room of our building, stuff to discuss with my therapist, records I wanna find and buy, etc. I was at a show last night (Santigold and she kicked ass) and was jotting reminders for myself between songs. Having an instant notes repository is awesome.
I hate it despite realizing what a good life I have because I was born here with a lucky set of circumstances (cis white male). But I love parts of it, like the Bay Area and Oakland and all the surrounding hiking spots. If we didn’t share it with lunatics I’d feel a lot better about it from a policy perspective.
Lightning strikes and both candidates die in a horrible freak accident. Oh wait, you asked worst case…
Everyone is faking it to some degree.
Most valuable lesson I was ever forced to learn.
The Irish, for example, are no longer systematically persecuted in the USA en masse.
I use Docbase, which apparently has been archived on GitHub.
It’s also a great path to getting people to do what you want. I was already an atheist when my father and I had a philosophical discussion regarding religion when I was an adolescent. He brought up this point early in the discussion. I only need to look around at all the bullshit laws getting passed that religious zealots vote for against their own interest to confirm that this is true.
The Southern Baptist Church just had their annual conference and decided that their position on Invitro Fertilization is against the procedure. How does that help anyone? It doesn’t.
Add this to the list of products I won’t buy. Not that I would have before, but now it’s a rule rather than a preference.
First boot was MKLinux. Before there were books about Linux in book stores. I had no idea how to login.
I prefer knowing that my relationships are genuine and no one is sucking up or trying to get anything from me.
You might also be able to replace the firmware with something like DD-WRT or OpenWRT or Tomato or other third-party firmware.
By resigning, there’s nothing on his record to prevent getting a job in another department. Hooray! The system works. /s
No. The whole world turned against them in 2021 (I think?) when they were gonna have on-device monitoring for CSAM. They’d get run over by a bus for this too, same as MS.
Apple’s guy in charge of those systems called “hallucinations” exactly that last night in an on-stage interview with John Gruber.
Lurk on r/homelab. Look up some vloggers doing homelab stuffs. Start learning Python (it’s the most common language for breaking into a lot of fields right now). Get on forums where people discuss these things.
Don’t go overboard spending money on hardware for the homelab prematurely. It’s easy to get caught up in building the perfect homelab over actually learning how to implement things. Start with the most barebones rig you can get away with and only start investing more when you’ve stretched it to its limit. Buy second-hand hardware when it comes to things like servers, though I wouldn’t recommend buying servers if you can get away with less, at least until you’re established.

An empty parking spot with dozens of open spaces and I park far away, clearly trying to avoid other cars. I come back and the one other car in the vicinity of my own is parked right next to it. Fucking why!
