I2c-USB-hub: An i2C Controllable USB 2.0 Hub
In my experience this support was rare. I had an issue a few years ago with multiple USB 3 cameras (Intel Realsense) on a mobile robot that would periodically freeze up and need to be hard-reset, and a power-controllable hub seemed like the least-bad way to hack around it. I found my way to this tool, with its convenient list of compatible hardware:
https://github.com/mvp/uhubctl
Of the USB 3 options on the list, several were EOL or impossible to find, and when I ordered one each of the remainder, there was only one I could get working, and it wasn't reliable about being able to reset a device that had frozen to the point where Linux no longer had sysfs entries for it.
We ended up instead using a hub with an internal jumper to disable bus power, and then putting the self power line through a separately-controllable relay.

Does RPI ZERO W have a low-power mode? (eink reader project)
Best you can tweak is to disable the WiFi / Bluetooth and possibly the USB ports (edit - USB look no go https://github.com/mvp/uhubctl)

Would a headphone to USB adapter work through a USB C hub?
There's an extremely useful feature called USB Per-Port Power Switching, that's somewhat rare because nobody knows about it. If you use a Unix-family operating system, then here's a C driver. Windows doesn't currently have this feature, but could add it in the future -- let's hope they do!

Kb2040 and usb hub not seeing all of my boards
https://github.com/codazoda/hub-ctrl.c or https://github.com/mvp/uhubctl can be used if the hubs have "Per-port power switching". The second link also has a long description.

Recommendation for USB relay
If you were using a USB-powered drive and Linux/Mac/Unix, you could use uhubctl with one of the (uncommon) hubs that support Per-Port Power Switching (PPPS).

Customized Pi for Humidor
Actually some of the Pi boards USB ports can be controlled by Uhubctl but you have to note the restrictions on the board you are using - mainly how many you effect and the "minor" fact of the USB also controls the Ethernet and WiFi power on some boards!

Alternatives to Clear-Com Call Signal Flasher?
I've also used Qlab on both ends to trigger USB led flashes via OSC using uhubctl. You'll need a usb hub for that.

Linux fu: getting started with systemd
For self-hosting I've found https://k3s.io to be really good from the SUSE people. Works on basically any Linux distro and makes self-hosting k8s not miserable.

Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder
Yes it’s going to depend on which k8s distribution you’re using. We have work in-progress for k3s to natively support nix-snapshotter: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/pull/9319
For other distributions, nix-snapshotter works with official containerd releases so it’s just a matter of toml configuration and a systemd unit for nix-snapshotter.
We run Kubernetes outside of NixOS, but yes the NixOS modules provided by the nix-snapshotter certainly make it simple.

K3s Traefik Ingress - configured for your homelab!
I recently purchased a used Lenovo M900 Think Centre (i7 with 32GB RAM) from eBay to expand my mini-homelab, which was just a single Synology DS218+ plugged into my ISP's router (yuck!). Since I've been spending a big chunk of time at work playing around with Kubernetes, I figured that I'd put my skills to the test and run a k3s node on the new server. While I was familiar with k3s before starting this project, I'd never actually run it before, opting for tools like kind (and minikube before that) to run small test clusters for my local development work.

Building a no-code Helm UI with Windmill - Part 1
I’ve created a local cluster with K3S and installing Windmill could not be simpler with just one chart to configure, which already has sane defaults to get started. For this demo we will also configure workers to passthrough environment variables to our scripts so that they have access to the Kubernetes API server for later.
