Contacting @colocationamerica about getting my new home lab into a colo space.
What hardware are you colo-ing?
A Dell R620. Single 550w power supply, 2x Xeon x5-5660 8-core, 96gb RAM, 4x Cruical MX-400 500GB SSD (my new home lab box.)
FFS fodder, but I must ask. Is having the single supply enough power for you to fully utilitize the hardware in that server? I know you can get 1U + an additional power plug for a fee with Colocation America.

Typically, yes. If you need two power supplies for things to work, then you don't have redundant power.

Yeah, it's been running just fine. I doubt it would run at 100% load 100% of the time, but it's my home lab. I'd be amazed if I could load it down enough. 230W cpu, 150W ram =380W leaving 170W for the rest of the system (assuming 100% load, which will never happen.)

Good tool. Mostly a clone of Wifi Analyzer, but newer interface and no adds, so better.

I thought its been out for a while. Maybe I just got the beta.
I used to use inSSIDer before they quit developing it. WIFIMan is definitely a better alternative than inSSIDer.

Did you show her the trade school article I posted and highlighted how much better off she'd be if she learns a trade. Rather than going to college.

That depends on the profession or career she's interested in, where, and when.

Just pulled the trigger and got Matomo for all my sites. It is set up so much better than Google Analytics.

Isn't it free?

@scottalanmiller There was a free trial. However I wanted the basic plan.

They have an on-premise option that is free.

@DustinB3403 Oh right that was it. I'll do that someday, I just don't have the time right now.

Because of some reason of spiteful communities actions?

Just had a long talk with a customer about the exact WordPress thing that we talked about yesterday. Turns out... he saw WordPress as buggy because "they installed lots of bad plugins and it broke."

Updating my new server install setup script. Will eventually create a ansible playbook and/or Salt State file.
