What could someone do with it? Aside from running a backend for a DIY startup which sounds Very Not Fun.
There's gotta be at least a few dozen of these crazy homelabs out there, is anyone writing software specifically targeting them?
Maybe the distributed computing projects if those are still a thing?

- defrost 2y agoI've seen many parallels to this in many domains, it's a "home" version of serious commercial setups that serves to keep in touch with bleeding edge setups, to experiment with the common place Vs the off beat and so on. If that is what this is then it doesn't need much purpose besides that alone. Chemists, mechanical engineers, and many other similar types have been known to have "home labs" that are mini commercial grade setups similar to what they work with or routinely setup | tear down.
