Do we still have the situation that if one wants a #linux #gnu_linux computer according to one's own specs, where one lives e.g. DE, one is limited, as a non expert, to buying one from the specialist suppliers of machines for linux if one wants it to be guaranteed to work? Or is there a resource of known sets of #DIY builds (motherboard, CPU, etc.) that will work for sure and where all the exact bits are available in your country? #diycomputer

Nothing says 'Ongoing server upgrade' like constantly being short a critical component. Today's flavor is Mini Sas cables!

I ordered two, but got the wrong kind, then I ordered the right kind, but Amazon sent me only one correct and one totally wrong cable. Replacement incoming.

Here's hoping I can get this server off my coffee table by weeks end.

Got a new episode of the Memory Machine out late last night! This one features previous guest @jdyer , and we're talking all about kit computers! But probably not the ones you're thinking of...

I’m looking to build my dad a new desktop this year. I built him a computer eons ago… do you all have any good recommendations on YouTube, website, or blog follows for suggested budget builds?

So far, I liked these:
