I'm in this picture and I don't like it.
Not me thankfully, mine is in a rack.
Oh mine to. I scored one of those raspberry pi cluster boards that holds 6 compute modules.
Microcenter ordered a pallet of them and they didn't sell. So I picked up 2 of them for $60 each.
Can I put therapy under the skills section of my resume?
Not if you're the one on the couch 😅
But having a feeling of "this is my homelab and I am in control here" is such a good thing in a world where almost everything is out of my control ...
That is one of the main reasons I got i to electronics engineering.
ChatGPT, am I crazy?
No, you are not.
Thanks!
But building the cluster IS the therapy for John DevOps
Joking aside, some people's hobbies are there therapy. Talk therapy doesn't work on everyoneÂ
Can't you read, OP?! It clearly says that's totally not a Kubernetes cluster!

I’m not O-K8s
Wait would a couple of these dell PCs be a good home server compared to something like the minisforumMS-01?
To be completely honest a $2 million mainframe would be better suited for the hentai porn.
Redundancy, and core count. Its $500 for 12 core miniforum, for the same price you could probably push 24 cores from the dells at least.
I built a Xeon Gen 2 server for this. I have 40 cores @ 2.5 Ghz. It ain't fast, but I run a redundant cluster on it, AND I run a dev cluster along side it so I can do green/blue deployments.
So much of consumer computing is about peak clock speed, because you are only really doing ONE thing because your a user, interfacing with the system. Instead in k8s cluster you can be doing 100s of things, maybe even 1000s of operations in parallel. So core count becomes much more important, or at least as important as core/boost clock speed. Power is a serious concern, and affects the value proposition. Your gonna pay way more in power with the dells.
tl;dr In workloads designed for parallelism, cores mean more simultaneous jobs which equates to more total throughput, but getting integrated cores in a single machine becomes prohibitively expensive.
Depends on if You pay for your electricity, they have probably 200 W power supplies and take up at least 25 W when idle. All for the power of 6x i3 from 10 years ago.
My home server ist just a measly NUC, Does that mean I still need therapy?
No thanks. I got shit to do.
me looking at my pi cluster (I’m also a girl not a man)
Listen just because you're right....sobs
My therapy bill is about $180 a month with no insurance coverage for my provider. That’s a lot less than the headache of building K8s at home.
My LLM is my therapist and I need somewhere to run her I mean it
I do both
I do both
The cluster never asks me about my feeling, only more yaml configurations
Cheaper to clusterf*ck, and ingress is easier too.
