I have one because a hundful of devices in my rack (switches, AP, Mini PC) are single power supply while the servers are all dual.

Makes it easy to have everything connected to both UPS separately. It came in handy a few times when I had one of the UPS freak out (or when someone decides to flip the light switch that is connected to that outlet, lol). Also was helpful for keeping things only while reorganizing/moving stuff around.

Nowadays I moved everything running in the rack to a mini PC to cut down on power so its not really in use anymore.

I still follow windows news because of family/friends but damn am I glad I switched to linux everytime I see some stupid mandatory bs Microsoft adds…

Hey that’s me!

One thing I noticed is I never updated the app icon customization section. You don’t need Asapticons/Icon mixer. Themepark has an option to add custom icons now!

I can also post my De-Bloater config (root only)/list of apps (that can be used to disable them via ADB) I’ve removed when I update the post in a bit.

I’m still on Fold3/OneUI 5.1 but apps should be similar.

Yeah, I have a quite aggressive pihole and a lot of the domains it says aren’t blocked are 100% blacklisted in pihole (and testing them gives an error message so they are blocked…)

Mull (Firefox) + uBlock + PiHole.

There’s not really an elegant way to do this because of HTTPS.

You can use a browser extension like Privacy Redirect to do this though (and/or set up SearXNG to do it however this will only redirect you from search results of Youtube.com on that SearXNG instance).

I’ve got:
R720 w/ 2697v2s, 12 hdds Some Intel 2011 box w/ 2667v2s A custom AM5 server w/ 7700x, 8 hdds An old Cisco enterprise 48 port (&4 SFP+) switch It seems to hover ~800w.
I’m looking into replacing a lot of it especially the Intel server because it’s used for just pfSense.
