Yeah that was my thinking, just to lower the amount of power the rack consumes from the grid by taking some from the sun

Oh I didn't know they were bought out, I always liked their chargers and just got a external battery for my phone, I guess we'll see

interesting, I do have a UPS on my rack already so chaining it isnt an issue. everything is plugged into the UPS now so I was imagining just unplugging the UPS from the wall and into the anker box, then just figuring out how to add enough solar panels to power the rack but also charge the battery

 

Has anyone gotten their server rack to run off solar power.

I got the idea after seeing the Anker solix systems on sale at costco and thought what if I could get one of those to power my server rack and have a few rigid solar panels on the roof to charge the battery up during the day and run the server partially during the night off the battery, but switch over to grid power when it runs dry?

Curious if anyone has any experience with that, I'm not looking to do my whole house just my server rack for now, from my limited tracking of my rack it looks like it uses 8kwh a day so it seems possible. Searching online it looks like there are much cheaper battery options than anker

That's why my dog poops then immediately launches off into a zoomie sprint

Don't worry it'll fly by in no time

Yeah i went down the same path about a year ago and ended up forgetting i even had a dual boot of windows. I ended up just wiping the windows drive and reinstalled popos as a raid0 across both drives for that little extra speed bump for loading.

I don't really play multi-player games but I haven't come across anything not working from steam. The only issue I had was openRGB was detected by the insurgency sand storm anti cheat so I disabled it from launching on boot so my PC leds are just on default most of the time

You just have to ask about stuff. If they have a close relationship with their mom and you're good at bonding with her then it should be very similar.

Relationships can be like a workout where it takes a bit of effort and energy but after a while it'll get easier. At least that's how it is with coworkers for me. I talk and ask questions and try to throw a joke in there and see what sticks, after a while we're regular ol buds

It's better to try sooner. Dual booting as you figure things out like software replacement and what distro

Sadly doesn't work anymore as it was dropped and damaged. Found it at an ewaste site with the idea to build an ITX pc inside with a little DIY digital oscilloscope replacing the screen connected to the audio out so you can see the wave form as you listen to music or play games

 
 

I was curious how filling a PC coolant loop like you would a car radiator would go, I tried to work it out in my head first then tried it, I made this video of my process of filling the system and what I would try the next time. This is my first time making a video like this so go ahead and judge me so I can learn.
