Merch drop 8: a homelab space heater, a pinned dependency and a voided warranty
Five new items in the Homelab the Right Way merch store - the Self-Hosted. Self-Taught. Self-Inflicted. tee, the Heated by My Homelab hoodie, the coffee==forever pinned-dependency mug, the Warranty Voided sticker and the Self-Hosted since 127.0.0.1 dad hat.
Five new designs are in the Homelab the Right Way merch store today: a tee, a hoodie, a mug, a sticker and an embroidered dad hat. Same rules as every drop: original typography, no logos that belong to anyone else, printed or embroidered to order by Printful, nothing sitting in a warehouse.
Self-Hosted. Self-Taught. Self-Inflicted. (tee)
Self-Hosted. Self-Taught. Self-Inflicted. Tee: a little server rack, a $ whoami prompt that answers "admin, user, and the help desk", and the three words that sum up running your own stack. Every outage in a homelab has exactly one person to call, and they are wearing this shirt.
Bella + Canvas 3001 unisex tee in Black, Navy, Dark Grey Heather and Forest. $27.50 to $45.50 depending on size.
Heated by My Homelab (hoodie)
Heated by My Homelab Hoodie: the winter one. Heat waves rising off a small rack, THIS WINTER I AM HEATED BY MY HOMELAB in big type, and the only thermodynamics you need along the bottom: watts in, warmth out. Everything a computer draws ends up as heat in the room, so the joke is at least technically correct.
Gildan 18500 heavy blend hoodie in Black, Navy, Dark Heather and Forest Green. $47.50 to $64 depending on size.
coffee==forever (mug)
Coffee Is My Only Pinned Dependency Mug: a requirements.txt card where everything else floats (sleep>=6.0, patience~=0.3, tickets<=99) and one line is pinned with == and highlighted: coffee==forever. Printed on both sides so it reads right in either hand. Dishwasher and microwave safe.
Glossy ceramic mug, 11, 15 and 20 oz. $17 (11 oz) to $27.50 (20 oz).
Warranty Voided (sticker)
Warranty Voided Tamper Seal Sticker: a scalloped navy seal with a tilted amber VOIDED stamp across WARRANTY and the honest footnote: I opened it. I fixed it. For the lid of the mini PC, NAS or laptop you took apart anyway.
3 x 3, 4 x 4 and 5.5 x 5.5 in kiss-cut vinyl. $4.50 to $5.50 depending on size.
Self-Hosted since 127.0.0.1 (dad hat)
Self-Hosted Since 127.0.0.1 Dad Hat: SELF-HOSTED over "since 127.0.0.1", embroidered in two thread colours on a classic Yupoong 6245CM dad cap. Low-key enough to wear anywhere; anyone who knows localhost will get it.
Black, Navy, Dark Grey and Spruce. $28.
