👆Touch display for a mini rack. I set it up with my pi-kiosk configuration on a Raspberry Pi, and I can control and monitor the whole studio through Home Assistant. Should I do a video on it?

People often asked whether Pi clusters are useful besides just tinkering.

Well... I have a definitive answer: the Orban Optimod 5xxx series audio processors, which include a 3-node Raspberry Pi cluster, and cost north of $9k! Found at the NAB Show this week.

One Pi is used for remote control, web UI, firmware updates, and local display. Another for audio processing independent of the 'head' Pi, and a third optional Pi for (I think) audio watermarking for ratings data.

A risky GPU mount is appropriate for the RISC-V-est computer I've ever tested.

HiFive Premier P550 video is coming in a week or two, complete with a working GPU—it's gonna be wild!

There's already a (very nice) rackmount for the JetKVM! I got to meet up with a local maker here in St. Louis, who is on the Voron design team. Check out the video on the 2nd channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVU3N...

Like many of us homelabbers, he saw the JetKVM and impulse-backed it on Kickstarter... then he got to work designing a cool modular 1U rackmount.

You can mount 1, 2, 4, or even 6 in 1U, using different versions of a 3D printed or laser-cut-metal designs. It's a very simple design, only requiring one type of screw to assemble everything. And it's all free on GitHub! github.com/JaredC01/JetKVM

JaredC01 came out to the studio to test-fit the JetKVM—he designed the entire thing off the CAD model, and it fit like a glove! Always cool to meet people who can turn ideas into reality.

The suspense is killing me... ‪@System76‬'s Thelio Astra is here, and I've already run a _lot_ of tests (GLaDOS would be proud!):

Completely sold out of 'Cosplaying as a Sysadmin' sticker packs on www.redshirtjeff.com/, but still have a bunch of shirts left, like the classic 'It was DNS'! Going to restock soon, though. #itwasdns

There's a new Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W, but (a) I haven't gotten one for testing yet, so I probably won't cover it (‪@kevinmcaleer28‬ has a nice quick video on it), and (b) been heads down in a couple other projects, coming soon ;)

Posting my Raspberry Pi battlestation.

Am I doing this right?
