Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year! See you in 2024 :)
MrBeast is jealous of you
i would love a flexispot table :( please
I am a maker and would has been eyeing flexispot desk for years now! its the best and quite expensive for me
First video of 2024, Run Raspian on the massive arm desktop
@@projectsbydietherdaveget a few more subs and I'm sure Flexispot will send you one.
Considering how they are throwing their desks at every CZcamsr, I would never buy one. Sounds like they're made too cheap if they can afford to give so many of them away.
I am glad you are pulling a Linus and getting sponsors to fit out the studio
It definitely helps! And I don't plan on spamming sponsorships into every video going forward, I'm using them to help offset the costs of the studio build out this year.
Spam as many sponsored videos as you like. If that ensures that the content is good and makes projects possible.
@@kevinj24535 I'll spam them when I need to :)
The nice thing is between Patreon, GitHub Sponsors, and AdSense revenue, I am able to pay the essential bills, so sponsorships mostly help me save for rainy days, or take on specific projects (like the studio build) when I need it!
And I hope people who watch this channel are okay with it, especially since I add chapter markers, overlays, and very clear delineations of what's sponsored and what's not!
@@JeffGeerlingBelieve me Jeff, your audience is more than okay with it. I'd say contact raid shadow legends to get more upgrades around the studio 😂 Thanks for everything you do ❤
@@earthling_parth - Ha! Well now, that's one step too far-I only accept sponsorships from companies I have done or would happily do business with. Games and apps that try to suck in dollars from kids don't get my approval :D
A $100,000 server is finally a computer that meets Windows Vista's minimum requirements!
At least!
But can it run crysis?
Still won't have a perfect Windows Experience Score
You will never have a perfect experience score on windows.
@@aaronryder4008 I bet techs test them with Doom on occasion. Seems like an unwritten rule.
Jeff's videos are always fantastic! The new studio looks great. The C7 and E7Q also complement the studio really well!
May they last for many years in this space! I actually bought a tiny 24x42" flexispot desk on sale last week too. A lot different than the massive E7Q!
can't wait for another office update on that server rack
Working on the first bit of it now! Hopefully the video will be ready for next week. Then I'll be focused on wiring up more servers in January!
Getting a Lenovo mini-pc is a great idea! And not only for servers, I've seen some school classmates use them as a secondary "school-only" computer. We must stop throwing computers away when they seem to become obsolete. Looking forward to the next server video!
That's a pretty cool Oxide video at 8:25 😁
Also thanks for the tip to give a heads up for our insurance carrier when we have Red Shirt Jeff out in our lab -Jordan
Heh, you do have to keep an eye out on that guy.
i like the way you integrated content into the advertisement. was seamless, i have been looking for a desk like that, now when my budget allows its currently at the top of my shortlist. i play jack of all trades in the IT space officially i am a sr dev but im also prod manager for all our deployed code and the main linux guru, thankfully i have a unix guru for our unix systems and windows server person to do the AD stuff but i work on all of it. jack of all trades master of none but othentimes better than a master of one :P
Merry Christmas, hope you and your family had a great one.
Merry Christmas to you, too! And we did, it is a great time even with one kid out sick.
Did not know they made chairs, so yeah, I actually learned something from a midroll ad! 🤣
Ha, until they reached out I didn't know either! They're decent chairs, though I wish they made a solid sub-$99 option too (sometimes they have sales on the C3)
Wait a minute, a studio video??
Excited to see you build your server cabinet out!
So impressive work on the videos you publish! Thanks for the high quality content !
If mrBeast knew sysadmin (nice title)
>"What is a server"
Ahhh now the Wolfgang's Channel cameo makes sense 😄
I bought a flexispot frame early this year, never got around to setting it up until a month ago, and I absolutely adore it. My workbench is so much nicer to use now.
But $100000 server doesn't even compare to Jeff's Petabyte Pi Project.
Sound in the new studio sounds great! :)
"1.2 billion web pages"
As a web designer who knows how much a modern, and especially a "designer" web page could look like, I heavily disagree.
Heh, well the question is what kind of web page. If we're talking a news site with 15 MB of stuff on the page load, no way :D
Nice to see you recording in your new office space. No more concerns with CO2 :)
Heh, hopefully not! But I haven't set up the AirGradients yet, so I can't be certain :)
Nice to see Oxide Computer mentioned. Their offerings look really cool!
I appreciate your work Jeff, thank you.
Nice shots with the new studio! Congrats jeff 🎉
That desk is awesome! what a cool dining table
Merry Christmas, Jeff. Keep up the good work.
"There are businesses that needs Petabytes of storage". I know one near Vancouver in Canada. The Tech Tips man himself.
So this is the first real video from the new studio! Congrats! Nice one.
great video as always
that flexispot chair is pretty freaking sweet, ty for sharing.
You don't even need to drop $100 on an old PC as a server! I grabbed one on eBay with a 6th gen i5 for £30, got an extra 8GB stick of DDR4 for £12 (making 16), and chucked in a 120GB SSD I had laying around. It works great as a Minecraft server
Nice deal on that!
1:03 dude is flexing his rack 😭😭😭
But this one is welded, it barely flexes!
ba dum tss 💀💀💀💀@@JeffGeerling
jokes aside cant wait for the vlog
Very enjoyable, Jeff! Love the Pico - have got it feeding temperature into Home Assistant. Saw the Dalek poster, hope you had time to relax and enjoy the Christmas Day special 👍 I converted my old desk with Flexispot after a Christmas present a couple of years ah, still working nicely.
Nothing beats my 2009 Dell laptop. It never fails to fail on me.
Flexispot desks and chairs ARE awesome, like Jeff. Great sponsor!
I like the flow of this video!
It's fun to see you experimenting with your style lately. :)
Can't wait to see the new studio 😊
I like that the talking points for that chair gave an upper height suggestion - as somebody rather larger than the average and bigger than that chair suggests that is the sort of detail that is far to rarely mentioned. Adjustable chairs only adjust so far, and as I've yet for really find a great solution for myself. Be nice if they also suggested an across the shoulders or width at the hip measurement too - not all tall folks tend to the stick thin that the Scandinavians seem to...
Sadly they always forget about us tall people.
Its hard to find a chair with proper support
The chair is a copycat of the Herman Miller Aeron. The Aeron is far better and literally recommended by physicians
Doubt that one is suitable for tall people either@@humble2246
@@humble2246 While I can see the similarities in concept they don't look that close to me. And at half again as expensive I'd hope the Herman is better. But it certainly doesn't have nearly as useful a spec sheet for judging which one is the better size for you - or even if any of them will suit - and at that price no way you buy one in hope unless you are a very rich giant...
Though from what I can tell from their listed sizes till too small for me on their largest model probably...
@foldionepapyrus3441 I am 6'5 the aeron is quite literally the best. The thing is with his chair he is recommending are the exact same points Herman miller aeron claims. Hence why it's a copycat
I cry in tear of joy when Jeff uses the 10 grant work station to play Kerbal Space Program 😅
Merry Christmas jeff to you and your family.
Shoutout to all the companies that support Jeff!!
Awesome to see the progress on the studio space. I am only a little jealous 😅
Ha! A lot of it could still happen just at my desk, but it is nice to have enough room for proper storage again... instead of piles and piles everywhere.
Looking forward to your content in 2024 :)
I got a Raspberry Pi 5 for Christmas!
Niiiiice! Hope you can do some fun projects with it!
uuu recordings made in new studi! awsome :)
I used a Pico W as a server, it was really nice for simple things.
the mr beast of home labs ;)
My brother got a handful of those small form-factor PCs for free from work (Dell Optiplexes, though), I'm using one as a backup for my primary server for Plex redundancy. As long as you aren't expecting to throw a ton of stuff in there they're pretty great, it even handles 4K video transcoding.
The transcoding can be a bit dependent on which CPU is used inside, though! Nice that you got some good ones :)
@@JeffGeerling Yeah! Thankfully the iGPUs in the ones I got are supported by Plex for hardware transcoding! I was surprised his company's IT department didn't want them back.
@@eldibsdecommissioned equipment that is off warranty end up being very expensive if put in production and it fails.
@@RossReedstrom A company large enough to have an IT department probably has identically configured systems set up not to rely on local storage. If a client PC dies you swap in a new one and the employee won't even notice.
The desk is better than the desk I build. The chair well what could I say. Merry Christmas to you, your dad, and your family. Now I need to go fine a way to connect two servers over the network.
I love the Dalek in the background
I'm quite sure that our editor-in-chief could use this desk and chair very well!
Funny you should mention upcycling an old mini PC. I have a Lenovo just like the one you showed. I got it for free from work because it barely ran Windows. I put pfsense on it and it's been my router and firewall for almost 2 years. It's been rock solid. I even streamed this video with it.
They're surprisingly capable little boxes!
Its incredible how throwing an SSD in an old computer overhwelmingly rejuvenates it.
Well, if I ever saw an excuse for a product placement ad...
And now I have a great desk to use for my testing and filming ;)
You should do a video on a home theater front ends. Everyone uses something different and I'm curious to see what the best option is when you have to mix media, and games.
I've seen some people use windows 10 tablet mode, chimera os, etc...
Great info, congrats on the new office. I'm finally moving away form my first gen Threadripper running truenas and plex, while it was fun, it wasn't utilized and not power efficient
That's the biggest problem with the more exotic systems for homelab use-they just burn so much energy (and are often quite loud) and are severely under-utilized!
@@JeffGeerling it was fun to play around with for a bit, but then I had kids and with a stable system I and realized just how little I really needed, and my wife preferred uptime, over Tinker time.
Mad props for the cowsay t-shirt!
The new office looks great!
Excited to see where the rack came from, and see what the plan is for the server. Just built a new machine myself. Got a sweet deal on a Ryzen 5 5600x with mobo, 16 gig of ram, and a RX6500xt for $600 CDN ( about $450 US) dropped in an nVidia Tesla K80. Trying to get Vicuna LLM running so i can self host an AI chat bot to integrate with my Twitch chat.
I suppose we'll have another 10 minute ad singing the praises of the company that gave that rack to Jeff for free. What's next then... Dr Pepper I suppose in exchange for a lifetime supply of that stuff!
The new man cave ähm sorry studio looks great 👍 also the sound proofing seems to work great 😅 keep up the good content!
Even better than a Tiny/Mini/Micro PC is an HPE MicroServer if you can find a good price on one. Real deal HPE server in a package just a little bigger than a TMM PC. I've been running one as a home server for a few years and I love it.
Thumb's up for Geerling engineering.
one of my favourite channels
Oh, you're in the studio! Nice!
nice sound in the new studio!
i love my huge bamboo counter top (39in x 73in) with t leg shape, before installing the t leg shape it was 5 single post like leg shape (the normal one), it was wobbling like hell
you dont want that when the top weight over 175lbs with stuff on it that add maybe 50-80+ lbs and cost a few thousand...
this thing is a beast now, it's not going anywhere
only thing missing is a motors to move it up and down, maybe someday!
Was looking at the Lenovo minis, but then heard about them burning the fuses on Ryzen to platform lock them. They went on my naughty list.
I picked up 2 "refurbished" Lenovo M910q mini computers off eBay 2 weeks ago with 8gb ram, i5 7500 CPU and 256gb nvme storage. When I got them they were actually brand new and unused/unopened with all the original accessories and the cost just £75 ($95) each. Absolute bargain for a great little desktop pc or home server.
Wow nice! I've never had that kind of fortune on eBay, sometimes quite the opposite!
Hey Jeff! 👋
This video on Al servers is incredibly insightful and well-presented. Your ability to break down complex topics into easily digestible chunks is truly
commendable. The exploration of Al server architectures, performance
considerations, and real-world applications provides a comprehensive overview for both beginners and tech enthusiasts.
I appreciate how you delve into the practical aspects, discussing the impact of GPUs, TPUs, and other accelerators on Al workloads. Your hands-on approach and the demonstration of server setups make it easier for viewers to grasp the concepts and consider implementing similar solutions.
Moreover, your clear explanations and engaging delivery make this video accessible to a wide audience, whether they're seasoned professionals or just starting to dip their toes into the fascinating world of Al servers. Keep up the fantastic work, Jeff! Looking forward to more insightful content from your channel.🚀✨
Wait a second...
Gaah, that discord notification at 7:40, I kept checking my computer xD
😂
I'm shocked no one else said this already. Nice rack, Jeff.
My media server is in the 1600 USD range. An ASUS PN64-E1 w/ i7-13700H and a QNAP-TR004 running Debian 12.
i just love how you made mr beast style video about server
I have 12 of those Lenovo thin clients in my rack. they take up 4U of my network rack. very powerful for the money. I was originally going to run a pi cluster, but when scarcity hit and prices skyrocketed these were about 1/4 the price and 4-12x the performance.
@RaidOwl Was the creator at 4:49. I could not parse what Jeff was saying and had to go hunt. All I could hear was "raid Allen".
Good to see Jeff got a Real Man's server rack.
Yay I didn't drool seeing all that hardware!!!! You think in a few years you might design a Laser Engraver and have it go to work on that table putting your Logo and the makers Logo on it for extra style/experience points? Maybe even dremel some grooves to inlay RGB and seal with epoxy for extra zaz?
my add blocker was not working on this
Gratz on the sponsors
I was just about to ask you where you got the sweet rack and if there were any more nearby so I will be waiting on that one. Glad I waited to comment. More on topic I think more dedicated AI hardware for people who don't want the cloud might finally change what we know of as a server and I suspect something like that risc workstation is going to be the answer but we have only scratched the surface of the subject in our home lab.
Wait... until next year you're Jeff Geerling.. but who will you be after next year?!?!
Lol, I hope you had a Merry Christmas Jeff, and a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Thank you, haha! Still Jeff for now at least!
Number of drives does need to equate directly to power usage … if you can power-down unused drives. That’s a massive “IF”! One company that did this was Copan Systems, with its “MAID” (Massive Array of Idle Disks) technology. Sadly the company closed in 2009 and I don’t know what happened to the technology (or patents).
It seems like controllers don't like doing that, so you'd have to figure out a solution in software-and that can get tricky if you want to use any standard arrays like with ZFS, Btrfs, etc. - you'd have to do the accounting yourself.
However, it could be done, especially if you want to leave 10 or 20 plugged in as 'hot-ish spares', where they power on, but then in software you mark them for spindown. Then if you need one or two, you can un-mark them for spindown, spin them up, then add them to a pool.
@JeffGeerling still think you could slot the pi 5 between the pico and the Lenovo with the new pcie support meaning nvme storage it’s quite a good system for the tinkering homelab
Racks are neither used to deliver power nor cool servers. Server halls have massive cooling and you need to mount power strips on them. :-)
Next up, we'll see Jeff get an HPE Synergy blade enclosure, deck it out to the max and then replace it with a bunch of RasPis.
I got a Dell USFF machine for Home Assistant, so much more responsive then a RaspberryPi
Came for servers, stayed for spin.
I see the LEDs there on the rack door 🧐 I approve lol
Ha! You are sadly in the minority according to my Twitter and CZcams polls! But they are individually-addressable, so I can have a little fun with that lighting :)
@@JeffGeerling sad and exciting news at the same time! I’ll be very interested to see what you do with them, maybe an interesting way to display server stats
Lmao, I love the Mr. Beast thumbnail 100k font
Nice video. BTW the PicoW is €10 in France, where can I buy it at 1€ ?
that the chip is 1 dollaroo in theory is a bit of a cop out. still not a bad price at 6 or whatever bucks in stock.
you can however serve with esp32 too and those you can get for around half the price with a board with usb connector and all on the board.
Hey @JeffGeerling, what colour grey is your wall? Do you have the paint code or something for it?
What is that laptop at 2:54? Looks like you need that fancy desk to hold it up!
MNT Reform - video on it should be coming 'soon' (not sure exactly when though!
Love it Jeff ! What could I do with 1 PB ? Sadly I know one case 😂
I can see where you got the "segway to the sponsor"
Hehe 'inspiration'! Like the inspiration from this video's sponsor!
Until next year I'm Jeff Geerling..... Who are you going to be next year??? 😀
Thanks for your videos that makes "computing" into good fun. Happy New Year to you and your family 😊
huh, I had been complaining about my desk chair....typically wear em out in a year or 2....thanks for the code I'll give it a look.
per microservers etc I found its easier to just spin up the free/nano version of linode/aws etc with similar specs compared to those designs. Im partial to the mini-pc clustered design for my proxmox cluster, easy to replace and modular.
Those sound dampening panels looks nice and the sound in the studio is excellent (the framed posters also look nice).
Nice you could get a nice table and chair through sponsors.
Edit: Noticed at the end you did stick something to the panels so maybe the are more meant for that than sound dampening, lol.
the grey panels are fabric wrapped around Corning 703 sound panels; I still have a couple more to put up though!
@@JeffGeerling ah I see. Looking forward to the next office vlog.
cluster of pico w and pico, can it work and what could it do ? or as beacon, help a mobile "robot"/blind person locate itself in a room with 4 pico w in the corners, using wifi signal strength,
a special wristwatch could use pins to inform the host of the situation.
Oooh I think this is your first video in the new office?
$100K server? Sonofagun, I'm in.
¡Thanks!
Hi Jeff, its very hard very hard follow this tech improvments in all the fields 😢 for instance in the CPU field i'm cut out for different generations.
That was a lot of advertising in one video. Hoping the next one is not as extreme.
holy crap, more adds than Linus.......didn't think that was possible.
if anyone can automate and optimize the Parenting Process, it would be Red Shirt Jeff.
