[2324.84 --> 2331.36] And then you'd run water cooling through those plates into a radiator that I guess you could maybe put it in the booth.
[2331.44 --> 2334.60] But I think for better cooling, you'd need the radiator outside the booth.
[2334.88 --> 2334.98] Yeah.
[2335.32 --> 2337.20] Clearly, this needs better planning.
[2337.50 --> 2339.18] But I like where the home's going with this.
[2339.30 --> 2341.10] It's an idea I actually had not considered.
[2341.60 --> 2345.66] And anything would be better than cutting a hole in the side of my RV.
[2345.66 --> 2354.40] However, the Pis are only part of the problem because the other situation I have is the electrical system with the Victron equipment and the batteries.
[2355.04 --> 2363.20] When I'm running solar and so I'm taking in a whole bunch of solar, which generates heat, surprisingly, and then also running air conditioning.
[2363.20 --> 2369.00] So I'm inverting solar power into air conditioning when it's really hot out.
[2369.00 --> 2374.92] So like, say, above 95 degrees or 90 ish, even that just generates a lot of heat in itself.
[2374.92 --> 2381.56] Then you combine that with when I've been driving, the drivetrain is very hot, which is behind the power bay.
[2382.00 --> 2383.80] So it's a lot of ambient heat.
[2384.26 --> 2387.84] And what I have to do to keep it running is I have to get airflow going through there.
[2388.12 --> 2390.48] So I don't think I could water cool the Victron equipment.
[2390.58 --> 2394.56] So it would only solve the Raspberry Pi problem, but definitely worth considering.
[2394.66 --> 2397.12] I'm going to actually go do a little Googling tonight and see what I can find.
[2397.12 --> 2403.26] Yeah, I mean, like maybe with hard drives, you don't need a huge amount of airflow over them.
[2403.34 --> 2404.58] You just need some.
[2405.10 --> 2413.64] And maybe you could make that fan pull double duty of doing the water cooling and also blowing air over the drivetrain and battery bay.
[2413.92 --> 2418.48] Well, Alex, I think you better come out here and set a few weeks aside so we can start getting to work on this project.
[2419.20 --> 2419.60] Maybe.
[2419.86 --> 2421.52] Yeah, it's episode 50 before we know it.
[2422.22 --> 2422.74] Yeah, maybe.
[2422.84 --> 2423.86] That would be fun, wouldn't it?
[2423.86 --> 2425.40] I don't know, though.
[2425.40 --> 2426.58] I'm pretty nervous about it.
[2426.66 --> 2427.92] Pretty nervous about cutting holes.
[2429.00 --> 2430.48] I'll come to some solution.
[2430.78 --> 2431.80] And when I do, I'll share it.
[2431.90 --> 2434.72] But in the meantime, let's talk about something that'd be simple.
[2434.96 --> 2437.32] Something maybe I won't have to mess too much with.
[2437.56 --> 2440.26] Yeah, we've got an app pick for you all this week called Tiny Home.
[2440.44 --> 2443.16] This is a simple static homepage generator.
[2443.88 --> 2445.30] There's a link to it in the show notes.
[2445.58 --> 2449.40] And if you head on over there, you'll see there's a link to an example demo site.
[2449.76 --> 2452.82] And the demo site is just, it's so simple.
[2452.82 --> 2455.02] It's just headings with a couple of buttons on it.
[2455.16 --> 2464.88] So if you want to put all of your different self-hosted web apps, it's basically a collection of links, like Heimdall, like Homer, like Organizer, all those kind of things.
[2464.92 --> 2469.80] Except this is a statically generated, super simple little website.
[2470.38 --> 2473.12] Yeah, and I think it just generates it from Bash scripts or some kind of script.
[2473.38 --> 2476.96] So it's really easy for you to manage it and just spit out a static website.
[2477.46 --> 2478.30] That's pretty nice.
[2478.62 --> 2479.28] That's pretty nice.
[2479.28 --> 2483.66] Yeah, just generate a little CSV file and a static generator will do the rest.
[2484.70 --> 2485.78] Gosh, that is easy.
[2486.26 --> 2491.82] If you're still mulling over Google Photo alternatives, check out Alex on Linux Unplugged 409.
[2491.94 --> 2497.42] He joined us to talk about some of his favorites and some of the ones we've covered on this show before, but with a few updates.
[2497.78 --> 2500.84] That's at linuxunplugged.com slash 409.
[2501.22 --> 2505.08] And for all the places to get in touch with us, you can go to selfhosted.show slash contact.
[2505.08 --> 2506.72] You can find Alex on the Twitter.
[2506.82 --> 2507.92] He's at ironicbadger.
[2508.06 --> 2509.40] I am at Chris Elias.
[2509.54 --> 2512.60] And this here show is at selfhosted show.
[2512.60 --> 2518.82] Thanks to our site reliability engineers who keep the show going at selfhosted.show slash SRE.
[2519.16 --> 2522.54] Stick around if you're a member for your exclusive post show.
[2523.24 --> 2528.58] And I have a bit of exciting news for those of you who are cloudfree.shop customers.
[2528.96 --> 2531.96] There will be some new smart plugs coming in stock this week.
