Pushing my commits that trigger my own gitlab runners that build my c++ application across 32 cores/threads homelab server.
A second guilty pleasure would be looking at my grafana dashboards.
Third guilty pleasure is 10gbit/s fiber network at home.
Well, would you look at Mr Moneybags over here. LOL I wish tho. I just have a 1gbit connection.
Crying in 70Mbps copper.... 15 upload.
Realistically, 1gbit connection is good for uploading and downloading huge architectural plans, but other than that, I rarely use anything close to it's max capacity. It's like having a killer sports car that will go 0 to 60 in a few seconds, but you rarely have the need to do that.
Fact. I only use more then 1gbit/s for file transfers internally between computers or between the server and a computer.
10gbit fiber locally doesn't mean I have this speed to the internet (I'm not).
I bought the server hardware 3 years ago, so when the prices of ram were also fine. Today it's not fun anymore.. I really hope those ram and nvne prices go down again! I can't upgrade anything now.
It's a trade off. Buy older equipment and DDR3 is cheap. I dropped 40 more gb on the server for about $45 USD. The downside is that older equipment is not as energy efficient and as fast as newer equipment.
Ahhhh I do like my grafana dashboards.
My proxmox dashboards make me feel tingly in my no no parts
Waaay out of my field of moderate expertise. Rock it tho!
