Meh, homelab storage and FTTH are reasonably cheap. Or rented iron like Hetzner.

My video projector is dumb, and that's the way I like it.

The questionnaire is about AI, race and so many genders. That's all you need to know about their focus.

Stick a fork in them. They're done.

That decentralized and self-hostable platforms like Lemmy are fringe does not give me hope for the future of social networks on the Internet.

Wire speed L2 in hardware is cheap, but layer 3 is not (and is typically limited to few k routes for campus type of switches). I have a Quanta LB 10G and a Brocade ICX 1G/10G/40G switches for lab use, which are hot and screamy but were cheap used. I would not trust software L3 implementations to not drop packets at high rates.

That's pretty good. Which models are these?

[–] eleitl@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Interesting. Wonder how much horsepower they have in the L3 department.

I joined over 18 years ago. I agree Lemmy and Fediverse has a future, however online engagement has been falling for many years. I don't expect it to reverse, since most people will be dealing with rising problems in their personal life.

I've stopped using reddit the moment they locked out third party apps. I still read one community in read-only mode. I'll stop doing that when they'll kill off old.reddit.com.

Neither 10G multiport routers nor L3 wirespeed switches are low power. We're looking at 100+ W to multiple hundred watts. In 1U these are rather screamy.

The product you linked is a cheap fanless 10G layer 2 switch. It's ok for the price, as fanless 10G enterprise switches are hard to get used.

There are suitable 10G capable Mikrotik routers however. This one, for instance: https://www.amazon.de/MikroTik-RB5009UPr-S-IN/dp/B0BBW159WW If you want wirespeed 10G routing on two or more ports it's going to get expensive and/or noisy fast. A good compromise is a single 10G port router in a router on a stick mode used with a cheap 10G layer 2 switch.

You need at least one 10G port which is a pain on the Lenovo. There is a 10G passively cooled Mikrotik with sufficient power available.
