How is the Piracy community adapting to port forwarding becoming a rarer premium feature, and most users on public trackers do not have it? Is the bitorrent protocol in need of update? in c/[email protected]

That's exactly what I did. Better yet I routed it though a wireguard tunnel! I documented the process here.

I’m getting 1W 433 modules for like $15 now

haha I guess cheap is relative :) I was considering parts at 4 to 5$ range. But i'm talking about low power ble/zigbee etc..

wow didnt' know that Ebyte modules were that popular! I've come across them in site like lcsc and Ali.. Making use of them is what my current skill level allows. some of the varieties are relatively expensive though..

Wow, thank you for the very detailed post! I see that impedance matching is an important base subject. Is it covered in standard circuit theory textbooks. I'm looking to use this book. I tried to skim the contents but couldn't find it... Maybe I need to separately learn it? Thanks.

I see, that reference design suggestion sounds good. And it sounds like there's more practical consideration in tracing/routing on top of the theory.. Thanks for the input!

Hi all! I'm a firmware developer with little knowledge in analog electronics.. I deal with firmware for IOT projects all the time.

I had to make a breakout board with an off the shelf RF module with self contained PCB antenna. Now I'm intrigued in the hardware side. I'm inclined to design them from scratch myself. (Obviously ignoring the EMI and FCC certifications for the time being).

What concepts should I be familiar with to achieve this? Starting on I figured to brush up on circuit theory and signals. Where do I go from here? What materials would you recommend? Hopefully I don't need to get into hardcore RF theory to design these PCBs (I know kicad already has these premade antenna blocks).

Thank you.

As much as I like the interface and idea of lemmy, I think the content traffic is not enough for me.. and keep going back to reddit :/

Home server rebuild automation workflow in c/[email protected]

thanks for the info... I'm thinking of sticking with just Debian (as my simple usecase) and use virsh commands..

Okay 👍 Thanks for your suggestions. Think I'll just stick with Debian 🙂

haven't thought about it. I guess I'll learn some bash :)

BTW what is a good OS for the VM host? many here are running proxmox... would you recommend it for this purpose of bash automation to bring up VMs?

Thanks.. Just for clarification, you can use Ansible to control Proxmox as well.. and automate the entire VM bring up?

Hi, I have a home server (basically a NAS) currently running Debian. Basically it's configuration is as follows

debian host running 3 VMs
debian running inside each VM as docker host

I just manually install KVM on the host then docker on each VM after creating each of them. I documented the process so I know how to replicate it in case I need to rebuild.

I now dream of being able to automate the rebuild process using config files. I know this is done using Ansible.

But I've now heard of Talos.. (A thin layer for kubernetes) and intrigued. But I suppose I need a setup for the VM host to achieve automation through config files..

What setup are you guys using?

Thank you.

Thanks for all your suggestions! I've chosen to go with just bash scripting (given my simple setup) and keep the setup as it is.. Just gotta learn bash and virsh :)

Thanks for the addition. It's also mentioned in that original blog post I linked in the article.

For folks that are unable to port forward on the local router (eg CGNAT) I made this post on doing it via a VPS. I've scoured the internet and didn't find a complete guide.
