    We have solutions for NASA - Solar Panel Cleaning devices that were developed on The Computer Dudes, Inc's SolarOneMonolith project.

    Our project is outdoor data centers on Earth.

    We offer our designs to NASA and Other Space Agencies as part of the project Data as well as for future use.

    NASA's Mars Mission InSight - which lasted longer than expected, was ultimately killed by the Solar Panels being covered by Martian Dust.

    Our solutions for the Solaronemonolith series outdoor computers solar panels are - Fans, Wiper Blade, Raking Device - Shovel Device, Ultrasonics, Low Frequency Sound, Ionic Charge, Ionic Fan, Drones, and Heaters.

    All "cleaning systems" would be on a different power system than the computer or spacecraft power system.

    We offer no criticism of NASA - their mission was very successful and lasted longer than was originally planned. :)T

    All #solaronemonolith - Off Grid, Outdoor, Cluster Type Supercomputers now come with a "manual" power generation option.

    Yes - if the grid is down, the solar panels are broken, the batteries are dead - a person may manually rotate a 20W generator - to boot the computers, run a laptop or recharge a cell phone.

    Zero Emissions, Zero waste. DC and AC Power.

    I believe it is another "First of its Kind"

    Go, Computer Dudes and American Engineering! :)T

    Today we were studying long-term Solar and Weather Damage to our outdoor supercomputers of the #solaronemonolith class.

    No system failures. No Core failures.

    Much heavier damage to semi-clear plastic covers of the battery compartment were discovered.
    AEFlorida (our engineering group) already designed a replacement made with glass, steel, stone. or carbon fiber. :)T

    Our #solaronemonolith and the worlds first Monolithic Off-Grid Solar Data Center have become a minor attraction here just South of Tallahassee, Florida.
    The Granite Monoliths are quite beautiful in the Sun or at Night. People drive by slowly or stop on the street out front to take a look several times a day.
    We put signs on the fence next to the road explaining the project and listing some of the technical specs.
    Good Job Computer Dudes! :)T

    Hey! This is Todd.

    I am still on medical restriction from working for a month or so as I recover from my open heart surgery about 2 weeks ago.

    It is slow going and painful but I am making progress every day and the medical people are sending 2 nurses by my house each week - one for case managment and one for physical therapy.

    I am under orders not to lift anything weighing more than 10 lbs.

    Thanks for everyones concern and all the kind note, emails and discussions on LinkedIn.

    More soon. Thanks - Todd

    Hi, I am Thomas Riker, I am an engineer out of New Orleans helping cover the SE United States with Computer Dudes products and services.

    As many of you are aware our Founder and the inventor of the #solaronemonolith recently had chest pains and went to the Hospital. Todd is out of the Hospital now but must return for Open Heart Surgery next week or the following week.

    Todd transferred command of Computer Dudes to me this morning.

    He plans to return in 6 to 12 weeks. Until then the rest of the Computer Dudes and their engineers will continue operations normally.

    You have my word on this. :)

    We have several versions of Cellular Data available for our #solaronemonolith products and outdoor off-grid data centers.

    Why should Data Centers have ANY power bill or even a building with this level of technology? ;)

    ALERT: Facebook and groups supporting Facebook and Meta are Phishing all the other Social Networks currently - including LinkedIn, for new members or for people to rejoin Facebook.

    It has happened to me quite a few times and several of my employees and dozens of my friends in the last 2 weeks.

    Personally, I just drop and block them, like I do other spammers, or bots.

    Pass the word. Let people know not to get #phished by #facebook.

    Computer Dudes received their first Wind Turbine to double the power available at our Site One Solar Monolithic Data Center. #solaronemonolith

    Our Outdoor Solar Data Centers require no Grid Tie or Data Line.

    Design life using Granite, Steel and Glass as well as modular replaceable parts is 100 years.

    Zero Power Bill. Wifi, Satellite, Fiber or Wired Data are all options.

    Multiple Power Inputs including Backup Generators keep the outdoor data centers running around the clock in any weather.

    I can't wait to see the 5 bladed Wind Turbine up and in action.

    It provides from 200 to 600 Watts according to wind speed and the wind is always blowing in North Florida. :)T

    Thats 10 degrees below freezing. Most batteries fail at Freezing temps or below.

    4 Intel small form factor Supercomputers, heavy in DDR4 memory ordered today.

    Our #solaronemonolith now has an Intel and AMD motherboard for our scalable computer core, Gordo.

    Gordo is round and scalable to any size motherboard and a large number of computer run in our "Gordo Supercomputer Core."

    Our newest version, announced here, will be the "Gordo-4i" which means it uses 4 Intel Motherboards.

    No building, no emissions, no power-bill, no grid-tie. Wifi or Satellite Data Link. Sensor and Controller ready.

    It fits on top of a standard Raspberry Pi 4B.

    Computer Dudes is basically an "Invention" and "Corporation" Factory.

    Much of the form and function follow that of Edison, Tesla, Ford and Westinghouse just to name a few.

    Some of our products you know become whole industries like our #solaronemonolith

    Other products you may not know, but use every day, or will.

    Another solution to Log4J? - Replace Apache Server?

    Alternatives to Apache Server:
    Lighttpd.
    F5 NGINX.
    Oracle WebLogic.
    Wildfly.
    IIS 7.5.
    IBM WebSphere Application Server.
    Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.
    LiteSpeed Web Server.
    TinyHTTP

    Or expand on that list with your own research. :)

The price of a Raspberry Pi 4B and other models has finally dropped.

Some of you wishing to recreate any of our Raspberry Pi devices or outdoor supercomputers like our #solaronemonolith should go ahead a pick up a few.

I think we started with 4 of them the year they came out. This allowed for multiple configurations as well as low power consumption computer and security products.

Read the articles here (all of them) to see and understand our development path.

Plus - they are fun. :)T

Alert: North Florida - Panama City Beach to Tallahassee and nearby cities

The new Black Poles with a Solar Panel and Camera along Highway 20, Highway 77, the City Areas and the Public Beach Areas.

Here is what those autoscanning cameras are all about:

https://ktvl.com/news/local/ask-10-what-are-the-solar-powered-cameras-attached-to-power-poles#

We are not sure if this is legal nor who has access to this footage. We do know it autoscans license plates and does face recognition too.

We do know there are already better versions of the Solar Camera Pole Scanners.

Since most of us carry a cell phone Google already knows more about us, where we are at, and at what speed - it should not be a huge concern.

This is more of a reminder cameras are everywhere and a review of current technology. :)T

Alert: Computer Dudes continues to recommend the deletion of phone apps: WhatsApp, Telegram and most of the others due to increasing security concerns.

Sometimes the security concern is from "hackers," sometimes it is the company that owns the chat or other apps you need protecting from.

Also removing un-used apps speeds your phone up and reduces the number of companies or individuals watching you.

Please share and help make everyones phone more secure. :)T

Pilot Error - Drone Crash

Results in "Design Mod" for a new "Taildragger" mode. Where the Drone flies low to the ground with its camera/payload facing forward and upward.
