I really enjoy reading in my hammock. Usually I set it up in my backyard but it’s also easy to take to a park or on a hike. I just use one of those camping ones that packs away to the size of a nalgene water bottle.

Sidenote, I also use one of these security straps on my e-reader. It allows me to read laying down in the hammock or in bed without having to completely hold onto my reader. Definitely recommend.

I’ve had my fw 13 since early Feb 2022. So far, I’ve replaced the hinges and upgraded to a new mainboard. (11th gen i5 to 12 gen i7 when it became my main PC).

I’ve redone the thermal paste on the 12th gen 2 times already to clean the fan out and have not had any problems opening things up. I open it up so often to tinker that the pull loop on the keyboard cable finally broke on me a few weeks ago.

My old mainboard is currently running my entire homlab. Opnsense, pihole, Plex, Kavita, audiobookshelf, foundry vtt, *arrs, unifi controller. I threw it into a 3d printed case and its been running fine without any issues.

I thought about upgrading to the fw16, but it’s too expensive for me to justify it. If I want to game I just plug into my eGPU. I don’t need my gaming system to be ultra portable.

I’ll probably upgrade again when they release a new ryzen mainboard that has USB 4 2.0 support so I can take advantage of the additional pcie bandwidth for my GPU.

I would reccomend the fw13 to anyone who is into customizing PCs or is passionate about repairability in the electronics they own.

Is the NIC built into the motherboard or an add on pcie card?

You could check the journal to see if the logs tell you anything.

Aptera is doing this with custom solar cells and they claim it’ll provide up to 40 miles of range per day. https://aptera.us/

The Culture series by Iain M Banks has an interesting spin on a utopian society.

I get quite a few reccomend actions from the sci-fi/fantasy rss feeds I’m subscribed to. I also get some from suggestions on lemmy.

If you use Firefox, the reader view works great when you want to look at just the article and nothing else.

I like Language Transfer. It’s free and you can download the episodes for offline listening.

I use fitnotes for workout tracking. Nice and simple and very customizable. You can also export all your workouts as CSVs if you want to import it into another program.

I use duckduckgo for personal use and google for work and I have noticed a significant quality drop in the results for both.

A few that haven’t been posted yet:

• Borderlands movie
• Alien Romulus

Yes. A unifi ap connects all my wireless devices to my LAN

Yes its my main router. Everything comes into the laptop across one interface setup as a trunk that includes vlans for WAN, LAN, etc. From there proxmox has a vlan aware linux bridge setup that connects to all the VMs/containers that I run. The VM virtual interfaces get tagged with whatever network I want the host to be part of.

I have a laptop motherboard setup with proxmox running:

• plex
• radarr,sonarr,prowlarr
• opnsense
• foundry VTT
• pi-hole
• unifi controller
• qbittorrent
• kavita

This is running on an i5-1135 with 40gigs of memory. If your frugal about how you have stuff setup you can pack alot of services into old laptops.

If your VPS can connect to your home router as a client it sounds like your wireguard server on opnsense is working correctly.

Might be a problem with your phones WG config. Have you tried taking the client .conf file from your VPS and loading it onto your phone to test a working config file?
