Serial Experiments Lain. Great, but very very weird, anime.

Can't relate. That's after selfhosting not Linux. I only have 1 laptop anyways to do work on.

All those power lines in the window view feed just that apartment.

The masculine urge to buy a bunch of computers, deck my room out like some cyberpunk rat nest and do secret software stuff. (Seriously what would you even have multiple computers do.)

Run Multiple Services silly. How do you think Spotify, Netflix, and all these other goofy things operate? I think it is the obsession to locally host your own services and compartmentalize things so things don't all come crashing down at once. It totally makes sense to me. And I don't even think it's masculine. I think chicks would even dig it too. I think they do actually dig it. I think you're just told as a female that that's just not for you. And some resist. No subscription for me, thank you very much. All these major tech-bro companies have blood on their hands. And what they do is nothing special.

Setup k3s (pronounces "kubes") on each computer as a node. Run scalable software - a website, database, some LDAP setup for users, maybe.

Check out /c/[email protected] for inspiration :D

Not me having random urges to use old Linux laptops as servers

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Thats how my homelab started! Now I have power-draw problems |:(

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Lol, I've been wanting to tear down my old laptops down to the board and run them "bare" in my rack as some sort of cluster lmao

This isn't even the final form of her room. They haven't gotten to the "liquid cooled by way of literally having a puddle of ankle deep water in the room" phase!

Why have a "reservoir" when you can just staple a hose end to the floor and ignore complaints

Spoiler: Late-stage Navi (Knowledge Navigator)

This is me with old phones that I keep to prove LineageOS will still support, I keep them all updated, I flash Mobian or postmarketOS, but I keep none as a daily driver

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Especially when you work in a place with good ewaste

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I mean, you don't need to at this point, all those incompatible with Windows 11 computers. So hard not to just buy another for $50
