I spent years using i3 as my main machine and I loved everything about it. Fast forward to now where I have to use a Mac. Most of the time I'm in a terminal with tmux so it's fine but any time I have to deal with a gui element that is under something else I get more and more upset.

I've had buttons stop working. The mechanism inside that registers the click is a mechanical switch and they eventually die

If you can somehow manage to install software on your work laptop then I highly recommend Synergy. It is by far a better solution than a KVM and you could keep the keyboard and mouse plugged into your PC so no effect on gaming.

Generally you plug a cable in from the UPS to the server and install software that monitors the UPS. You would set up that software to power down the server.

Either dia or inkscape

If it were me I would give it a shot and use a thermal camera to see the temperature differences. Worse case you have to patch the hole. Might also be a good idea to contact an HVAC company to see what they think.

Promtail is for collecting metrics from log files, Loki is for log aggregation. Really depends on what your needs are. Do you want to be able to view the actual log entries or do you only want to see metrics about the logs?

Why would you back up data you don't care about? I agree, it does seem pointless.

Traditionally all incoming lines into a server room or wiring closet gets punched down to a panel in the rack and then jumpers are wired to everything in the rack. You never put an end on a cable that came out of a wall. The idea being you would have maybe 5 feet of extra cable in a loop behind the rack in case you needed to reorganize the room in the future. It sucks pulling cable, so leave some extra.

If there were multiple racks then usually one of them was just for wires and switches and the others were for servers. I usually used different color cables for different things too (like use orange for links between switches and blue for servers, etc), but for a home rack I wouldn't bother with that. Different color zip ties on cables can be handy too.

Is there any way to configure Cloudflare to send an additional header with the original IP in it? Then you could run fail2ban on that data.

What is the "action" attribute for the login form? My guess is the url doesn't match and that the form isn't using the origin header properly.
