Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You can only do 100M runs max anyways, just replace the whole thing? 100M of CAT6 is pretty cheap if you already have a box for it.
Or is this an academic question?
Actual, not academic. And I agree that a new cable is cheap, which is what I will do. My question is about avoiding throwing a mostly good cable in the trash.
Pull it, cut into quarters. Add jacks to each end and test the lines.
Nvm, I see you suggested this..
What is an M? Miles? That doesn't seem right.
M = meters. Mi = miles
m = meters. M = mega (x 1 000 000).
That's why Km is 1 thousand meters and Mm is 1 million meters.
The actual unit is lower case, the multiplier is uppercase.
It's also a lower case k in km.
Wouldn't agree with that... There are many different units and multipliers. the letter being uppercase or lowercase has nothing to do with it.
Examples:
letters for prefixes/multipliers being uppercase and lowercase: P, T, G, M, k, h, da, d, c, m, u, n (trillion, billion, million, thousand, hundred, ten, one tenth, one hundredth, one thousandth, one millionth, one billionth)
Letters for units being uppercase and lowercase: s, m, g, N, W, J, A, K, V, h, Hz (seconds, meter, gram, Newton, Watt, Joule, Ampere, Kelvin, Volt, hour, Hertz) (just recognised, that most units, which are named after scientists, are written with capital letters...)
km = thousand meters/kilometer
K = Kelvin (unit for temperature)
M = Mega (prefix for one million)
kJ = thousand joules
s = second
ms = millisecond (one thousandth)
S = siemens (electrical conductivity)
mS = milli siemens
mm = millimeter (one thousandth of a meter)
Mm = megameter (one million meters or thousand kilometers)
For reals? Where can I read more about this?
Edit: nevermind, I just googled it. TIL!
