This is a poor tradeoff to me. A low power computer can be left on all the time, and be there for you when you need it for things like openvpn or ssh tunnels etc.
Leaving this on and idle would cost around $20 a month in electricity here in the bay area.
- louwrentius 7y agoIt would probably cost me 2 euros per year per watt. So I think it's about the same cost. I have other low-power hardware for the OpenVPN / firewall /routing stuff so I don't need this machine turned on.
