>>107700035I frequently wonder about this, even when people are talking about their setups in /hsg/, I don't always fully understand what their setup actually accomplishes.
>>107700035Probably just vapid torrenting with radarr, sonarr, and those other .*rr programs.
>>107700046The owner of this homelab legit looks like a pedo. He claims that his most important files only occupy 175 TB. Rest is just for some bs meme testings and what not.
>>107700077Forgot the pic.
>>107700053i don't care how good any of it is or what it does, but i'm never touching any of that gay shit out of principle.
>>107700083Kek I see it too
A combination of hoarding, frivolous spending, and, in some cases, the need for peer acceptance. All are mental disorders, in my opinion.>>107700047At a basic level it's usually a networked file storage of some kind. Many ways to take it to autistic levels.>>107700077>>107700083Looks like any random dad with a sedantry hobby. Let's see your mugshot, projecting faggot.

>>107700736Yeah, I do.
>>107700035the gaudy lighting and shitty wall panels should tell you everything you know
Why do some musicians buy and collect 34789327498 electric guitars? Why do kids collect Disney stickers? It's called a hobby. Collecting stuff can be fun. You don't actually do anything with it.0/10 thread

>>107700830Sounds more like a DIY NAS than an homelab.
>>107700840i think it is safe to assume the original poster is aware of the supposed distinction, hence even the fucking quotation marks around the word homelabkys fagooot
>>107700847The quotation makes make it sound more like "uhh it's not a full homelab just barely".
>>107700830>homelab
>>107700830wtf anon you don't even have a home
>>107700179Is this you on the picture or
>>107700840>>107700847wtf is "Homelab" supposed to be anyways except a Tranny grooming machine?Yeah it's primarily a NAS but also server for CAL/CardDAV/WebDAV, Home Automation, PV controller, Jellyfin. It does what I want and for how cheap the hardware is I never had an issue with it in 3 years.
>>107700865Just ask AI!>A homelab is a personal, self-controlled IT environment at home for learning, testing, and self-hosting tech services, ranging from a single old PC to full server racks, used to practice skills like virtualization (VMs/containers), networking (VLANs), storage (NAS), and running apps (Plex, Home Assistant) without impacting professional systems. It's a hands-on sandbox to build, break, and learn, offering benefits for IT professionals and tech enthusiasts alike.
>>107700868Yeah well that's exactly what I do with it. So fuck you all. I'll ad a UPS next
>>107700855The quotation makes make it sound like "it's not the kind of thing that makes kids on YouTube and manchildren on Reddit cream themselves, but it does the fucking job of hosting services or some shit", the former of which is what I assume the term "homelab" to be commonly associated with.
