[474.96 --> 475.58] I've seen it.
[475.68 --> 476.16] It works.
[476.50 --> 479.26] And there's plenty of machine there because there's no...
[479.26 --> 483.76] Like if you have a whole i5 sitting there doing your NAS, you might as well have it also doing
[483.76 --> 484.28] other things.
[484.36 --> 486.66] It just seems like, yeah, you totally could.
[486.74 --> 488.76] And the only problem is, do you want a PC next to your television?
[488.76 --> 492.90] Well, it's going to go on a sideboard thing, the TV.
[492.90 --> 497.78] And there's room in this IKEA sideboard that we've bought to put the PC.
[498.42 --> 503.38] And what I was thinking is I can drill out the back of it and put a fan there and one in the
[503.38 --> 507.44] bottom of it, one in the back of it and get enough airflow to keep it cool.
[507.44 --> 509.54] And it's otherwise just closed into a cupboard.
[509.90 --> 510.84] So you won't even see it.
[511.54 --> 513.72] Yeah, that now you're talking.
[514.00 --> 514.92] Now I'm on board.
[515.02 --> 515.86] I like that idea.
[516.22 --> 520.06] If it was me, I'd throw a little Odroid H3 in there because I love that Odroid.
[520.44 --> 522.28] I think that thing's the ultimate home PC.
[522.64 --> 523.94] And it's got HDMI out.
[524.20 --> 526.38] It's got a pretty good little processor on there.
[526.96 --> 527.72] Make a good NAS.
[528.16 --> 532.04] Yeah, but I've got this box already that is kind of a luxury because I've got a ton of
[532.04 --> 532.88] laptops as well.
[532.96 --> 536.38] I've got an Intraware Apollo, which is kind of my secondary laptop.
[536.38 --> 538.06] You could use that as a test machine.
[538.46 --> 539.30] Well, yeah, that's what I'm thinking.
[539.44 --> 539.52] Yeah.
[539.98 --> 541.24] Yeah, then I would do it.
[541.40 --> 548.22] You know, listener Jeff, who let us very graciously stay at his place in Sacramento, he has that
[548.22 --> 548.54] set up.
[549.00 --> 553.92] He's using Plasma Desktop if he needs to drop down to the desktop.
[554.62 --> 556.86] You could fire up Cody directly on it.
[557.08 --> 563.32] It's running Samba file services and NFS and running a couple of containers for him and works
[563.32 --> 563.60] great.
[563.60 --> 564.42] And it's got a disk.
[564.42 --> 566.52] You've got a couple of disks in there to act as the NAS.
[567.14 --> 568.78] So it's one PC doing all those things.
[568.92 --> 572.70] And I think that's pretty easy to justify a power draw for in utility.
[573.14 --> 574.38] Yeah, that's exactly what I'm thinking.
[574.64 --> 576.84] The only thing is smooth 4K playback.
[577.38 --> 583.26] So if anyone out there has got a suggestion for software I can run on top of Zubuntu, the
[583.26 --> 584.62] LTS, then let me know.
[584.74 --> 588.16] Either email the show or you can just tweet at me at Joe Rissington.
[588.16 --> 592.18] Linode.com slash SSH.
[592.26 --> 595.50] That's where you go to get $100 in 60-day credit on a new account.
[595.64 --> 600.12] And it's a great way to support the show while you're checking out some fast, reliable cloud
[600.12 --> 600.50] hosting.
[600.94 --> 602.14] Linode's the best and the best.
[602.52 --> 605.46] That's why we pick them for everything we've deployed in like the last three years.
[605.72 --> 606.78] All of our new projects.
[607.40 --> 609.18] Backend infrastructure we use for our tooling.
[609.50 --> 610.96] The stuff that's facing towards the audience.
[611.50 --> 611.84] It's Linode.
[611.84 --> 613.66] They got the best support in the business.
[613.76 --> 614.26] Real humans.
[614.54 --> 614.92] All day.
[615.28 --> 616.70] Every single day.
[616.98 --> 619.38] So you'll get the help you need if you ever get stuck.
[619.76 --> 623.30] They've built up some great tooling and a great support department because they've been
[623.30 --> 624.74] doing this for nearly 19 years.
[625.02 --> 627.14] And they've had to just survive on the merits of the product.
[627.28 --> 628.36] Nobody has a match.
[628.66 --> 629.06] Nobody.
[629.58 --> 634.00] And they're 30 to 50% cheaper than the hyperscalers out there that you really don't want.
[634.30 --> 639.02] That don't let you have the full control and customizability and access to the system
[639.02 --> 640.16] that you really want.
[640.16 --> 642.34] And Linode is going to give you that.
[642.58 --> 643.62] They got a great dashboard.
[643.90 --> 644.78] A slick API.
[644.98 --> 649.08] And lots of ways like Ansible and Terraform and Kubernetes to interact with the overall
[649.08 --> 649.50] system.
[649.96 --> 653.24] And on top of that, they got 11 data centers you can choose from today.
[653.56 --> 655.32] A dozen more coming online next year.
[655.48 --> 659.38] And features like object storage, cloud firewall, backups, Kubernetes support.
[659.94 --> 660.92] You know, all that stuff.
[661.92 --> 662.68] So I don't know.
[663.06 --> 666.58] You can either like start from the very first principles and just do a bare box and build
[666.58 --> 667.02] up from there.
[667.26 --> 669.02] You could deploy one of their one clicks.
[669.02 --> 670.88] Or you could use some infrastructure management tools.
[671.08 --> 672.92] Maybe it's a great chance to learn some of that stuff.
[673.04 --> 673.50] I mean, I don't know.
[674.02 --> 674.80] I don't know you.
[675.36 --> 677.26] But I have a suspicion that might be true.
[677.88 --> 678.76] So go build something.
[679.24 --> 680.10] Go learn something.
[680.44 --> 685.82] Try for yourself and support the show and get that $100 by going to linode.com slash SSH.
[685.82 --> 688.94] That's linode.com slash SSH.
[690.84 --> 696.64] Well, Joe, I've been re-gearing a lot of sensors and small little edge devices for my home network.
[697.46 --> 699.06] Had to throw some of the old ones out.
[699.46 --> 700.46] Wanted to replace a few.
[700.88 --> 704.36] And I decided this time around, I'm going to give Zigbee a try.
[704.46 --> 707.94] Because Zigbee is an open source, wireless, and communication standard.
[708.60 --> 709.96] It's pretty popular, actually.
[710.24 --> 712.66] And it's going to be part of the new Matter standard as well.
[712.66 --> 714.56] So I thought, all right, let's get on the Zigbee train.
[715.78 --> 717.22] And I deployed sensors.
[717.50 --> 719.52] You know, I probably spent a little more than I should.
[720.04 --> 721.18] I do this sometimes.
[721.66 --> 723.06] And I got everything all set up.
