• My Linux Lair -- A Photo Essay

    From Farley Flud@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 12 18:00:41 2025
    Feast thine bloodshot, jaundiced eyeballs on my fantastic Linux
    Lair.

    Every REAL MAN needs his lair and here is mine.

    Note: These images were captured with a 60 mm Nikon macro
    lens and there is some depth of field problems. But otherwise
    behold the splendor and eat your hearts out.

    For the competent, check out:

    alt.binaries.multimedia.transformation

    For the lackeys, here is the temporary location:

    Description:

    Linux_Lair_0001

    My main Xeon machine powered up. Note the cooling fan on the left
    blowing large volumes of air across the entire set up. On the right
    are the 2 spinning rust HDDs. No junk SSDs on my machine.

    Underneath one can detect my Microslop Winblows machine. It is located
    on the bottom tier because that's where it fucking belongs.

    On the extreme left and out of focus is my new Xeon machine, still
    unfinished.

    Linux_Lair_0002

    Here is the total view of the Microslop Winblows machine. It is seldom
    powered up -- for damned good reason.

    Linux_Lair_0003

    Here is a bit of a close up of my main Xeon machine. The Nvidia
    TU116 vid card is seen as well as the SoundBlaster RX sound card.
    I have to lace down the sound card because there is no box.

    Linux_Lair_0005

    Here is the 2K monitor and keyboard for my main Xeon. Also seen are
    my fantastic Bose speakers.

    Out of sight on the right is another monitor and keyboard. I can operate
    two machines at once if I need to.

    Linux_Lair_0006

    Here is my DIY microphone and power supply. The depth of field is
    rather poor but the mic is the metal can at the right end of the
    breadboard.

    This DIY mic beats the fuck out of any commercial equivalent but, unfortunately, the room acoustics are somewhat poor.


    What you have witnessed if essentially a GNU/Linux workstation
    powerhouse, running Gentoo, that can whip the ass of any other
    distro.

    Could you please repost to a.b.m.t with a better format? There
    doesn't seem to be any format to those posts.

    Indeed, your posts seem very minimal, as if you just expected to
    dump the jpegs into a news post program, and expected it to work.
    Not even a Mime header, of which "1.0" is even required in the latest
    RFC for a news article (though, there is still a lot of netnews software
    that doesn't honor that...)

    TL;DR: yenc or uuencode would be very much appreciated.

    Intel? Xeon? Spinning hard drives? 2K monitors? Holes poked thru
    walls for cables?

    Is this Rube Goldberg-style collection of wires, fans and junk supposed
    to be impressive?

    Hilarious.

    The alleged "power supply" and "microphone" look like something put
    together by a 10 year old, 40 years ago. Hint: Room acoustics don't
    matter with a real microphone.

    Bose speakers? No highs, no lows: Must be Bose.

    All together, a nice collection of moldy, dusty antiques you have there.
    When you grow up and start earning some real money you might discover
    21st century hardware. All of that shit is on a single chip these days.
    No fans needed.

    You really are a sad, pathetic little shit aren't you?

    Yeah, there's a lot (and not) going on in those pics.
    Dust is pretty thick too.

    But Feeb does admit that his new PC build still is languishing. And in
    looking at this pile of (ahem) stuff, he's unwilling/unable to spend $50

    What's wrong with that? The Microsoft Natural back in the 90s was
    probably the most comfortable keyboard I've ever used.

    Can't blame him - MS makes good keyboards (and OSes, and office
    software, and money).

    I've been using Comfort Curve 2000s for at least 15 years. MicroCenter
    once had a big rack of unboxed keyboards, and I got 3 of them for $15 ea.

    Once you get used to an ergonomic keyboard I imagine it's tough to go
    back. I even took one to work to replace the office-supplied keyboard.

    I put this combo on my Christmas list. Didn't get it.

    Rather than noticing the superb electronics, you notice
    only the dust.

    Are you a washerwoman? Do you scrub floors?

    Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

    If you were really astute (which you are not) then you
    would have noticed that the entire circuit is located
    on a plastic clipboard.

    Here, I'll help you:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipboard

    It just so happened that the clipboard and circuit was
    stored in a dusty out building for a time until I needed
    it. But I did not want to de-dust it. Why the fuck
    should I? I am not, like you, a washerwoman.

    But it all points to your upbringing. Your mother must
    have savagely tugged your ears if you left crumbs on your
    dinner plate.

    That's why you notice dust rather than superb electronics.

    Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

    Works for me. I wore the legends off some of the keycaps on the Logitech
    and I'm not a touch typist so I swapped in a AmazonBasics I had on hand.
    I'm not a keyboard connoisseur but it works. The mouse is a Basics too, as
    are quite a few of the cables. I never bought one of those presumably gold plated HDMI cables from Worst Buy but I don't see how it could do the job
    any better.

    Out of stock... I never had an ergonomic keyboard but, being left handed,

    Jeff was weird, but everyone here liked him. Larry is just an idiot that
    no one here likes. Unlike Jeff, if Larry stops posting, we won't be

    Coupled with his diet of "high end" fast food, it is more than likely

    It's funny that you should mention Ted. I was incarcerated for
    a time at the same SuperMax. In fact, his cell, or cage actually,
    was just down the hall.

    They kept moving me around the federal system because I always managed
    to start things on fire and do a lot of other damage.

    I could not relate to Ted much, though. Even though we are both
    mathematicians he was a specialist in combinatorics and I was a
    topologist. We had nothing to discuss.

    I was eventually released because my team of lawyers managed to
    convince the judge that the search warrant was bogus. One day,
    they just opened the doors and let me walk out free. They are
    dumb bastards all.

    Rather than noticing the superb electronics, you notice

    Merely attention to detail in engineering design & operations.

    If you were really astute (which you are not) then you

    Nah, I saw that PS in pic#6: the ramifications are that in addition to
    the grunge causing fire hazard risks, you've also used a magnet for
    static electricity & the risks thereof. Good going! /s


    It just so happened that the clipboard and circuit was
    stored in a dusty out building for a time until I needed
    it. But I did not want to de-dust it. Why the fuck
    should I? I am not, like you, a washerwoman.

    But it all points to your upbringing. Your mother must
    have savagely tugged your ears if you left crumbs on your
    dinner plate.

    No, it comes from actually being paid to work in a high power lab, where
    such mistakes can kill you.

    That's why you notice dust rather than superb electronics.

    Nah, "superb" stuff isn't present, as those breadboards with their
    layers of grunge are bygone antiques from well before the applied
    development of stuff like Gallium based MMICs of this current century.

    Not the point that 12v isn't particularly hazardous : the point was in
    having good safety habits, because lab work isn't always going to be
    just merely 12v at a few Amps.

    Those are not wooden perfboards, you supreme idiot. I just glued the
    perfboard onto some wooden blocks that I had lying around. Their purpose
    is to elevate the perfboard, and all of the soldered connections that
    are located underneath. What you witness is a variable voltage, linear
    power supply that can be adapted to any purpose (within its limits).

    15 Amps at 120 Volts, Genius. 1800 Watts.

    How much does your system draw?

    With 5V, and not accounting for losses in the conversion,

    It doesn't take much, especially when one has sweaty palms.

    In any event, my recollection is that we ran my little device off of a
    heavier laboratory power line; I can't recall offhand if it was 240V or
    208V, as we had both of those available and we didn't need to use any of
    the several bigger options which were present in the lab space.


    A 5V power supply with that capacity could make a big spark and/or

    Yup. Its why takes the OSHA safety training and fosters good lab
    habits, because a short would tend to ruin one's day. Water is a big
    one to watch out for, because it doesn't take much dampness on one's
    hands to make skin a "good enough" conductor.

    n any event, this was just proof-of-principle baby prototype which ran
    directly off of grid; the next iteration has 16x greater output & is
    off-grid capable, due to provisioning of an 80kW-hr Li battery pack:

    For one thing, the voltage regs would act as fuses and blow

    That's why I always put a 100mA fuse on my circuits.

    Ah, so you were being ambiguous again on your claims.

    But if this alleged fuze is for the microphone, then where is it?

    FYI, claiming it is "hidden" doesn't fly because that means that you
    chose to make it unservicable, despite already having two panels which
    would have been easy & conveniently mounted: you're showing that if a
    fuze does exist, you have a piss-poor circuit design implementation.

    decades ago ... you know, the one with the refitted board on the print
    head to add the wheatstone bridge that had been forgotten? /s

    And of course your other problem is that your so-called 'microphone' is
    just one piece of cruddy shit you have laying around without adequate electrical protection: where's the safety/fuzes for each of the PCs?

    Better go lick your fingers and start checking if they're grounded.

    The metal box of each motherboard power supply is also grounded
    so there is never a danger of shock.

    Also, every connector has the metal contacts buried in plastic.
    There is no way for a human to contact them even if he desired.

    I used to actually ground myself via a wrist strap to drain away
    any static charge before working on the MB, but I don't do that
    anymore. I can just touch the power supply case which is grounded.

    Your concerns border on insanity. You should consult a qualified

    Those are 1.5 amp voltage regulators, which means they can output
    a max current of 1.5 amps. Note the tall heat sinks.

    Although this unit will see not that much current output. Here it
    powers a single op amp with only milliamps of current required.

    Anyone who would believe that such a circuit posed a danger should
    undergo a comprehensive neurological examination.



    despite already having two panels which
    would have been easy & conveniently mounted: you're showing that if a
    fuze does exist, you have a piss-poor circuit design implementation.


    Fuse holders are readily avaiable that allow the easily installation
    and replacement of fuses.

    Circuit layouts do not have to be aeshetically pleasing. They just have
    to work and this circuit design is likely the best possible.

    Islam believes that the murderous pedophile Muhammed (piss be upon him)
    was a model human being to be emulated. Muhammad (piss be upon him)
    married a six-year-old while he was in his 50s and had relations with
    her when she turned nine. Islam allows any of the brain-dead people who
    believe in this false religion, a faith which knows nothing of the
    Trinity, plagiarized the Bible and even accepted known fairy tales as
    fact when they were known to be lies, to take such young girls just as
    the head liar they call a prophet did. Islam calls for the death of Jews
    and Christians because Muhammad (piss be upon him) expected to be
    embraced by both groups and instead ended up being ridiculed. This
    proves that the murderous pedophile is also sensitive. When Muslims are
    told that the Koran demands that Jews and Christians should be treated
    like dogs, they lie because the religion also allows them to do this as
    long as it benefits the "religion."

    Islam was responsible for much of the Slave Trade. Islam was responsible
    for the enslaved of people who lived in coastal regions of Europe all
    the way to Ireland. Islam terrorized the waters of the Mediterranean and
    gave themselves the right to do so because everyone else was an infidel.
    In fact, the American navy was created to respond to this because even Americans who had never done anything to Muslims were enslaved. 1.5
    million Europeans are estimated to have been taken by these barbarians.

    The Poles saved Europe from being conquered by Muslims in 1683. The next
    time, it might be a good idea to convert these people in the same way
    they converted all people they came across: by giving them the choice to
    either die or accept Christ.

    Cracker.

    Instead of responding in the way your Antifa friends expect because
    you're looking to gain their approval, how about you actually read the
    Koran and learn how they intend to treat non-Muslims?

    Read Surah 65:4 where we find out how Muslims are supposed to divorce
    those wives they have who haven't yet menstruated.

    Quran 9:29 where anyone who isn't a Muslim is to be taxed heavily.

    Quran 7:159 who names the Jews as being the people who should be treated
    like dogs and killed in 7:176.

    Anyways, I already know that you won't back down and will defend the
    very "faith" that intends to kill you, but I thought you should know.

    Muslims are the worst liars I have ever met. They are like hairy dindu
    nuffins.

    Actually it's just another Christian heresy for those that couldn't wrap
    their minds around the doctrine of a Trinity.

    https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/heresy-of-mohammed-10817

    Writing in 1938 Belloc was correct to predict it was going to become a
    problem again.

    You can't really blame Mohammed. Many Christians, asked to explain the
    Trinity in their own words, will come up with one of the many heresies.

    DFS changed the quote line to call Physfitfreak "SandChimp".

    And considering how the sand chimp feels about us Whites and Christians,
    I can think of much worse insults I would use on the brain-damaged
    barbarian.

    You got it.

    This NG reminds me of the quip by Jim Morrison of the Doors during
    a New York concert when he said:

    "That's New York. It's the only place where guys rush the stage."

    I can say:

    That's COLA. It's the only place where supposedly mature men become
    worthless groupies.
