The Flipper companion device

This is the Flipper companion device, I name it just the Flipper Device just to be simple, it's just an A11 running a custom Flipper Launcher. It fun to execute and document one device without using my main smartphone. I what to using it more to use what the Flipper cannot.

I love it!

Here is the rough concept.

With some ideas from u/TurdPooCharger I have the consept of the old ThinkPad with the seven row keyboard layout and the old MacBook touch bar into the laptop.

It's not finished in the Illustration face but hopefully I can finish by the end of this week.

What do you think?

A retro ThinkPad to the modern world!

I am thinking to bring the old seven row keyboard layout back on frameworks components to bring back the old ThinkPad feel from the IBM ThinkPad era on a framework. Framework give me the computing power while I 3D print the case, ThinkLight, and the classic seven row keyboard layout.

Just an idea, what do you think—I will show more information and illustration if y'all interested.

Thank you!

I'm new to Homelabbing

I am new to Homelabbing and just started to create my new four-node homelab cluster. What are the best things to keep in mind about homelabs, and about creating projects on my homelab server?

Thank you so much.

Here is my classic retro build

​

**The "Nostalgintosh" Sleeper Specs**

​

For anyone wondering what is actually powering this thing under the vintage 90s plastic, here is the breakdown. I managed to cram a full modern Mini-ITX architecture inside the classic chassis to act as my daily driver and cluster control plane.

​

### **Hardware**

* **Motherboard:** Gigabyte A520I AC (Mini-ITX)

* **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 5 5600X (6-Core / 12-Thread)

* **RAM:** 32 GiB

* **GPU:** NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (Discrete)

​

### **Operating System & Environment**

* **OS:** Fedora Linux 43 Kinoite. I specifically chose Kinoite because it is an atomic, immutable OS—perfect for a secure, break-resistant control terminal.

* **Desktop Environment:** KDE Plasma 6.5.5

* **Graphics Platform:** Wayland

* **Kernel Version:** 6.18.9-200.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit)

​

It has way more compute power than a standard terminal needs, but the RTX 3060 and 32GB of RAM give me the overhead to use it for local LLM inferencing, heavy 3D rendering in Blender, and GameDev work without dropping frames.
