the white box depicted is my home server, built from used parts except the 3x4TB WD Red HDDs inside. Very proud to see what this little mATX box can do, with only 16gigs of ram!

running truenas scale and a lot of k3s pods, it works like a charm 🫡

Thanks! Not really, they’re all low-TDP units with good ventilation that I hacked on the top of the closed. I have a govee sensor that never clocks anything above 27C. Computers are also not running hot!

EDIT: typo

Right?! My wife was pretty happy to get all the computers around the house consolidated like that. But it’s now becoming her project of ‘beautifying’ it. I LOVE IT

Definitely the main reason I wanted a house: no restrictions on mounting things to walls.

Seriously underutilized space.

Meanwhile me while renting: Purchases concrete drill bits to mount stuff up 🤣

I agree though, vertical space is really underutilised. Most folks go for massive square footage when it probably isn’t needed, despite lots of free real estate on their wall!

No joke, eh? I’ve recently moved to my own apartment, and it’s such a freedom I can’t even fathom going back to renting. Praying that I won’t have to!!
