Added a PoE switch to the roof, and a small switch for the shop floor at 23b.

Small keystone jack with RJ45 ethernet under a wall shelf for easy temporary access wired network for the 23b shop.

A UniFi Flex Mini switch under a wall shelf with four 10ft. Cat6 patch cable connecting the switch to the easier to access keystone jacks.

The roof of the building, with an antenna pole in the center of the frame. A utility box mounted to the pole houses a UniFi Flex Utility switch to provide PoE access to other devices on the roof. A Ubiquiti Rocket dish is also mounted to the antenna pole.

A close up of the clear door utility box mounted to the antenna mast. Cable pass through glands are mounted under the box with cables attached to the switch inside the box.

I wouldn’t recommend it, the original case is much sturdier and you lose a mount point for the primary m.2 port. But the thermals were slightly better.

Having an 8th gen i5 with 8GB of RAM makes this thing quite overpowered for my use case.

If I could only afford more storage!

I guess it’s my turn to #makeshitmonday since
@elcannibal.bsky.social hasn’t yet.

I decided I need a portable video server, since we travel to places with intermittent signal and limited internet.

This is a #Lenovo M90n fitting perfectly inside a VHS tape

VHS tape taken apart and Lenovo M90n with the case removed on a table, some tools and bits of plastic from inside the VHS tape cassette strewn about.

Shucked Lenovo M90n mounted on the bottom half of the VHS cassette.

Had a great turnout for OC2600 on Friday, with over 70 individuals from all over Southern California showing up!

We had a few ad-hoc activities, like tearing down a PlayStation 5, another rebuilding the Kubernasty with upgraded Chromeboxes. Lots of student cyber clubs sharing notes.

Folding table with computer and console parts strewn across haphazardly. A portable LCD monitor displaying MrChromebox.tech custom coreboot firmware script.

Our newest addition to the weird at the @defconscavhunt.bsky.social table; Trauma Dump Hacker Confessional. I created the logos and glitch art that played on our “priest screen” along side installing the cloud. A late start project, so it’ll be a little more dressed up in the coming years.

I hate that cutting it close is my normal. I want one year where everything is just ready and I can relax.

We had a screening a week or two ago at the 23b Hackerspace. All the new kids were screaming when they realized you shot some of the interviews in our shop.

In the process of upgrading the network at 23b. We resurrected ID4con (since it coincided with OC2600), @zhoratrope.bsky.social finally got to play with steel wool poi, and painted some bricks.

Should have come to ID4con at 23b.
