RIP

I made my bots different accounts when they banned my main Twitch channel for my bot issue. After I unlinked it from my main twitch never had that issue again.

01:14:20 hey i made it into the video! thx tim!!

Maybe an Owncast instance is in order?

24:00 software vs hardware. I'm 50:50. I get tired of too many hardware videos and i also get tired of too many software videos

2:00 I think there is a good chance that it's because you have a bot running a human account. I know other platforms strictly prohibit running bots on human accounts - it's in their terms and conditions. Is there anything in Twitch's about it?

time to give Kick a try

I'd rather switch to YT than have you deal with their nonsense.

Seems like the API is not *really* there for anyone to develop for it which is silly: They were not prepared for just anybody coding their own bot, they expected a couple of companies putting it out as a product but no home made bots to be made so they are not willing to talk to you as an user if you don't present yourself as a bot developer instead: They very likely made a change, let the main bot developers know about it privately but nobody else because they assumed nobody else would use their API openly as intended.

I wish the JetKVM supported a KVM switch. I had a PiKVM V3 and it had issues with video on a couple of system. The price of the V4 at over $420.00 is too pricey. Having to buy 9 of them is also pricey having to use 9 network connections.... A very nice unit, no question about that.

58:00 Tim creating "The Machine" from Person of Interest

pikvm devs and staff need a attitude adjustment, i will never buy another one of their products due to how they have treated their customers. banning people just for mentioning another kvm. they are overpriced and need to change

Microsoft called it co-pilot, but when advertising AI to their clients, they literally talk about how they laid off 10,000 staff due to AI.

So disappointed - I was hoping that this would motivate you to stream your lives to YT! - I am trying to wrap my head around why you don't multi-stream to both and other platforms??!!

I got a week ban on Twitch once. I had set up a camera in front of my fish tank for a few weeks as cheap online storage so I could catch what was happening as they laid their eggs. The most it had was maybe 2 viewers. I got the email and they said I was suspended for inappropriate content. This was years ago when they had plenty of bikini streamers accidentally showing things, but no, my fish were over the line.

Definitely stream to both TIm if you can. I just can't do twitch. Their bitrate is just 🤮

I lost my partnered account 5-6 years ago because I got hacked, did something to get it suspended, and they changed my email but not my password. So I could get in but then couldn’t appeal, send in a ticket, or reset my password. They never respond when I email support directly but that’s my only option. Like no response ever. Extremely sad, I got partnered within like 6 months, and they killed the momentum I had, I just gave up…

While it's terrifying to be seemingly banned by a robot with no human interaction, It's also a little concerning that twitch is sending an official email saying your account has been compromised and instructing to click a link in the email. That's HOW you get your account compromised typically 🤦‍♂

Your explanation letter makes it appear that the account itself was hacked and nothing you did was the cause of the ban.

Minisfourm is awesome. I have a tiny node 3 cluster that's all minisfourm PCs, two of which are ms-01s. They are such great little machines.

I would like to clarify the situation as someone who's never streamed on Twitch. Twitch can permanently ban you through an automated process without warning for any reason and without telling you why. Once you're banned you can appeal the ban but it requires a human to review it to unban you, which can take a long time. You are guilty until proven innocent. There is no support number or email to contact support. Even after they unban you they won't tell you the specific trigger that caused the ban. Tim was unbanned because someone from Twitch saw him streaming on KZbin, knew who he was, and unbanned him from Twitch. If you're starting out with no audience, or have a small audience under 1k, and get automatically banned, then you're screwed. It sounds like Twitch doesn't care about streamers unless they are semi-famous or well-known with a large following. In my opinion, Twitch sounds like a horrible platform to stream on.

something's up with your mic audio tim, there's an electronic whine underneath everytime your are speaking and i can't unhear it T_T

I didn't know it was possible to be too nerdy for Twitch. Tim found a way! Thanks for the livestream yesterday. I always learn something new.

If we're so mad about twitch denials, think about the AI denials of UHC claims...

botting is view botting.

Used to live in Goshen Indiana, it's a small world.

technically viewbotting. literally fake engagement.

The vibe on YT is much more for me.

Sorry Tim - but I'm really hoping that you might be tempted to do LIVE's HERE!!!

Skip the dumb face. It will still be a top video

that's wild bro, I just started watching

chat bots aren't against tos

I was magically unbanned during this KZbin Live stream 😅

Man i quit distrohopping when i found NixOS, especially as a dev

17:53: Proxmox lerts stoppeds working: Yiour pssword was changed in gmail and this cancelled the app password. Just suggesting a possible cause

Have been using longhorn for a year or two now, the upgrades were bumpy, but it got a lot better in the last few releases. My things have been running pretty stable now for the last few months. Databases, z2m, Homeassistant etc are now very stable. But I'm also running Kubernetes as part of my day job, so I know a lot of the traps.

Could you do a minio video?

Yes put databases into kubernetes unless its at such a high utilization that it can alone fill a whole node at which point then you should probably move it to its own node but until then there is no point(and most homelab deployments dont get to like 1% of that) and dont run a cluster dedicated to a single application that is well a huge no no in my opinion also i personally run ROOK which is CEPH under the hood but CEPH cluster isnt hyperconverged with cluster that is also a no no in my opinion

I'm a fortune 200 consultant and specialize in k8s. I tell people to never ever ever host their DB's on K8s

03:00 this is most likely a longhorn issue. Longhorn has been problematic for me in the past as well. I therefore switched to Piraeus that uses drbd9 under the hood, fixing all the problems I had. It's soo much faster and nodes don't get blocked forever on a node drain. Edit: There's also a Proxmox CSI driver now. Even though it seems like it, you do not need to have a Proxmox cluster. It also runs just fine on a single node. Only downside is that the PVC is bound to a proxmox node and a failover to another node does not work.

If you are pulling the spool out of a factory sealed bag there really isnt much need to dry the filament even petg. The biggest issue I have had printing here in MN is that my pla eventually gets brittle from absorbing moisture and starts breaking off as it snakes into my bambu printer from the ams. This is when drying will make a difference and I have tried but its probably better to just recycle the spool and get some fresh stuff at that point because the spool was sitting out for nearly a year without a dry bag.

Is its just me or are the timecodes all messed up?

I have 6a ethernet to the house to the garage direct burial I get 250 up and down love it

Don't even dig a trench... I have this flat 10 inch shovel the I stomp in and wiggle back and forth. Direct burial armored fiber just drops in. No mess...

Howdy . New subscriber here and nood when it comes to home lab network setup. I enjoy your content and you break things down to the simplest level. Do you have any videos that goes to how to setup vLans? I have a protectli rout3er to bridge to my att router and and a tp link switch that vlans are capable. I plan on putting pfsense on the protectli.

You mentioned you have power running from your house to the garage (i.e. not separately metered), have you considered Powerline Ethernet? PE worked perfectly for my garage IP cameras, I just have it running into a USW-Flex 5 on the garage side for PoE.

regarding PBS: please read the docs how GC works! I have PBS running in LXC on PVE, with a dataset passed through. the dataset lives on a HDD pool with NVME special vdev (block size for special vdev set to 4k for the PBS dataset). I have thousands of backups and about 1,1TB real used storage garbage collections takes under a minute if I remember correctly. that's because GC is only on metadata level and in my case metadata is handled on NVME. but the most noticeable effect of special vdev is, that listing of the backups takes at most 2 seconds, instead of about 15-20s without the NVME special vdev before. wendell from level1techs did a video on zfs special vdev, highly recommended

@TechnoTimTalks - Too bad you don't/won't stream in YT - Twitch sucks so I never see your lives -

FYI, if you are looking to change out fluorescent for led's you might look at JESLED T8 4FT LED Type A+B Light Bulbs, 24W 3000LM 5000K Daylight White, Plug and Play or Ballast Bypass (as an example) where you can either leave the ballast in or remove it.... (a warning sticker is included to put on if you do remove the ballast so someone else down the road would know)

Thank you for continuing to do this. I can atleast catch these during the work week
