The best 0€ spent
Hello everyone,
some months ago i posted somewhere on the Steem-blockchain about my project to secure my home network, probably on enterprise level.
After talking about it with ClaudeAI for a week (until the chat was reeeeeaaaally slow) and create a plan for it. At the end of said week my hardware fot delivered and i started to build up and secure my home network. I followed the plan, but i always locked me out somewhen... So i tried again... And again... My lack of skills like reading and self-thinking went probably to 0, because before i even installed the management-RaspberryPi, with which i can enable/disable things in my network, i closed the SSH-port (22) per firewall rule. So yeah... No remote connection to the pi's anymore! And i just realised that error some days later at night in bed xD so, after those many failed attempts i lost my motivation completely. I ruined everyrhing, had to connect my PC over wlan to the internet instead of the much faster cable-connection, the wlan on my phone doesn't work anymore, etc... It was REALLY frustrating!
So yesterday i had a bit of alone-time and suddenly my motivation for that project came back! I started to chat with ChatGPT about this and it guided me pretty well through the single steps. Until one point my free limit was reached and i'd had to wait some hours until i can use it again for a little bit, until the limit is reached again... That's no option! Spending my alone-time just waiting for the limit to reset... So i choosed the free trial month for the pro plan and we chatted and chatted and chatted and i did things in my home network! I came really far with it!
Forget the so said "drug-addiction is bad". Were you ever really into some project? That's probably worse^^ just when my other addiction (nicotine) kicked in, i made a short smoking break and went on with my project ;)
It's a pitty that today is monday and i have to go to work :( else i'd have probably spent the whole night workig on it xD
So... I'd say for my lack of skills those 0,00€ were the best money every spent on something^^
Sincerely
@dissi
I remember that post and like you I also have that bell ringing once in bed ..
Great you picked it up and changed the AI it can help if you are stuck. Do not totally count on it and stay alert also if it comes to your free trial.
I would say: A great working week and success with your RaspberryPi!
0.00 SBD,
0.07 STEEM,
0.07 SP
It's really great i picked it up again (i mean.. I've spent over 1.000€ for the hardware, it'd be a pitty if i don't use it^^) and even greater is that everything runs so smoothly! Tbh i just make it according to the manual ChatGPT gives me, like i say i want to make now this and it tells me step by step how i can make this. It even says at the end of particulous steps that i should test it first, so i do that and therefore i know it works or else i tell ChatGPT about the error and it guides me through it. So nothing's untested or unverified ;)
Thanks :) i'm nearly at 50% of the whole project. The infrastructure stands, i just have to finish setting up and testing the tor-pi (a Raspberry Pi that routes my traffic through the tor network for more privacy, just in case if needed) and then i'm at ~50% finish! The missing parts are "only" the Minecraft-Server which i make at the end (about 10-15% maximum) and the controlling-pi some sort of administration for the whole network with a nice dashboard with statistics and informations etc. A secret USB Key which is indeed a Key because it opens the adminpanel on the dashboard where i can run single commands on the various pi's. I calculate that with about 40% of the whole project. But i really like how smoothly everything goes and i'm really happy with the result so far :) Even my old NAS worked again without any problem. I just had to adjust the new IP and it works as if it's day 1 :D
