I've had this photo for years, on there are both my grandfather and grandmother, something has always intrigued me about who the others are and if they related. After a bit of searching I found Face++ and made this: github.com/jfarcher/fac... it compares all the faces in a pic and suggests kinship %

Find the rack mountable server and it will give you all the answers.

And it’s here! Nice job @jetkvm.bsky.social a really polished product. Look forward to having a play tonight.

Yeah looking forward to getting it, heard and seen some good things so far.

This is a bit exciting!! @jetkvm.bsky.social

If you're out for a Boxing Day walk and spot a memorial bench, be a sweetie and snap a photo of it for openbenches.org

THANKS GANG!

Lovely. I’ve been a user and contributor to findagrave for genealogy reasons for a number of years, but I’ll do what I can here too.

Interesting, what’s the reasoning behind this? Genealogy?

Scrooged.

What is the maximum length of a DNS name I saw several mentions that the maximum string length of a DNS name (domain name) is 253 characters. Wikipedia seems to be referring this old blog post: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostname http://

A colleague and I were laughing about registering a daft domain the other day. Both of us realised we didn’t know the max length of a DNS name.
That escalated quickly:

I was going to hack a standard KVM with an ESP to achieve something similar with JetKVM but with the £25 NanoKVM it’s hardly worth it.

NanoKVM arrived today, I opted for the lite model. Really impressed so far. Going to have a proper play over the weekend.

Thanks I’ll give it a go.

Best #podcast app on iOS these days?

Microsoft just released a tool that lets you convert Office files to Markdown. Never thought I'd see the day.

Google also added Markdown export to Google Docs a few months ago.

Excellent news, keep us posted.
Should be alright, repurposing this as a proxmox backup server.

Be really interested to see how you get on. @jims-garage.bsky.social did a really cool video with 3 in a cluster that’s worth a watch

High spec CPU, 2 10g SFP+, 2 USB 4, 2 2.5g ethernet. And plenty of slots inside too.

Are you looking for low power or something gutsy?

It’s a tad moist out there!

$1.8M raised and counting—this is more than we ever imagined, all thanks to 12752 backers! 🙌

With just about 24 hours left, there’s still time to support JetKVM!

Has the homeplug standard been updated recently. I don’t believe I’ve seen any new devices on the market for some time now. Happy to be corrected.

Hopefully this is my answer. We’ll see

I thought you had some kind of weird screen burn at first, but that background is quite cool.

Lenovo P520 owners, I have a conundrum. How to enable bifurcation on the second pcie x16 slot without a GPU. 🤔

Proxmox users: how many open browser consoles have you currently got open that you didn’t realise? I just closed 14 🤣

Yeah the fact it hashes and compares each file it’s frighteningly quick. They should build in some sleeps in the code to make you feel more confident. Especially give. You can let it delete data, or not in our case.
