I had wildly varying experiences with companies i found on lowendbox.com Some were fine, some offered a very good yearly plan but vanished after three weeks. So yeah… people should keep that in mind.

I love this. The main components of my home infra is a smart-managed ethernet switch (Zyxel GS1900E) and an HP Microserver Gen8. I also have some thinkcentre tinys. I'm really interested in the server cabinet, if I can fit my ethernet

If you think about economic value, you’re comparing a few large-impact projects (and the impact of plan9 is debatable) versus a multitude of useful but low impact projects (edit: low impact because their scope is often local to some company

If you have some software that’s somewhat rigid you could make it scriptable by linking microquickjs. For example, lately i was looking into patching dnsmasq to handle events but found out that the dhcp-script flag most likely does what i n

Merit isn’t a matter of executing a playbook and ticking off boxes. That approach is fallible. I know this is rough advice, but: her approach isn’t working. She should try something different. Stuff is different right now, you/she can’

That might not be the case. The kind of memory that will flood the second-hand market could not be the kind of memory we can stuff in laptops or even desktop systems.

You could get 128gb ram laptops from the time ddr4 came around: workstation class laptops with 4 ram slots would happily take 128gb of memory. The fact that nowadays there are little to no laptops with 4 ran slots is entirely artificial.
