Who buys this cuck shit?
>>107008499i buy SBC's all the time. they're great to stick on your network to do some shit. i use 2 think centers to run docker network services, a pi for a seedbox, and a bunch of random SBC's for NAS/streaming stuff.gonna get the sifive risc-v board to tinker with too.
>>107008499We have some at work as CI runners. They do that job pretty well.
>>107008499People that want to have a server at home. And don't want to deal with a NAS shenanigans

>>107008499I don't play modern AAA games, but still require a decent CPU, so Ryzen mini PCs are great for my use case.

>>107008499Me. iGPUs have massively improved, my friend, much more than neckbeards would like to admit.
>>107008499i only buy those that's old enough to be considered as ewaste and has 2 lan ports, it's much much better than buying a router.

>>107008499Me, I used to run real servers but electric bills became too steep. I'm running one of these now at 12w idle.
>>107008499I use a mini PC Ryzen 7/32gb for work, a Xbox X and a Steam Deck for gaming. All of them suit my needs. If you don't want an SBC then don't buy one.
>>107008558What is the advantage over just one homeserver with podmans?

>>107008499Offices, they're perfect for office and salesforce drones.
>>107008499they're awesome for when you need to host something 24/7 (immich, media, torrent, file syncing) and dont want a noisy, bulky, power hungry space heater piece of shitthe downside is that expandability is extremely limited; if you really want to turn it into a NAS, you can either buy an expensive external enclosure, or the m.2 can be turned into normal pcie and you can just plug an HBA into it (but then you're back to having a bulky duct taped piece of shit with wires sticking out). if you dont need a gorillion pcie lanes, then it still mogs xeon space heaters
>>107008558real cool anon, now tell us about how 99% of time you are just browsing and shitposting here and then going to sleep after it was all set up

Offices? We (sadly) work on a terminal server and all the client units are chink boxes screwed to the back of the monitors
