Yeah, I agree with that. Give me a container.

They say in their post that they won’t host it.

Older 10G SFP+ models were definitely power hungry. I think they’ve gotten better since then, but I haven’t really looked into how much better.

I would definitely complain. That sounds defective.

Wow, that’s a power hungry modem… But, look into the power usage of those sfp modules. They can be ~10w on their own.

Those two devices are likely very low power arm devices. I wouldn’t be surprised if a mini pc consumes more power than those two devices. If power is your concern you should probably measure how much they’re actually pulling.

I put it in a container that has a build process every week.

I didn’t want to pay for cable TV. I started with torrents. Then I found utorrent could automate via rss and search terms, then sickbeard could automate it even further, usenet made it safer, etc… And that’s also how I ended up with a career in IT.

I just liked linux better so I learned it. That’s kind of my whole career, I want to do something so I get certified in it and start looking to get into it. I’m in consulting. I come in and help people setup OpenShift while teaching them how to use it and then move on to the next customer.

I probably also started with linux seriously around that time frame. I was also a Windows admin back then. Transitioning to Linux and containers was the best thing ever. You get out of dependency hell and having kruft all over your filesystem. I’m extremely biased though, I work for Red Hat now. Containers and Linux are my day job.

And honestly, 40 isn’t even impressive. I run more than that on one host. Containers make life so much easier is unreal.
