>>109147115like one minipc I got for $50 anything more is bloat
i just have a desktop pc and my laptopshould i get something else? what is a home lab? do i cook meth on it?
>>109147342its some retarded term for an old/small computer you keep running 24/7 at home to do shit for you like torrent files,media server,file storage...
I have a much different concept of a “homelab” than you unemployed troons.
>>109147404i bet you feel so badass
>>109147115Pens, pencils, and papers.
>>109147410Why yes I can repair a GPU, NVMe SSD, and a DDR5 memory module. My side hustle is crushing right now.
>>109147404homelab to me is the woodshop lab from school. they had c&c computer machines that could print designs on wood. the software worked on windows 98.
>>109147423what have you actually repaired
I have half a dozen Bosch power tools.
>>109147431Yesterday I upgraded yer mum’s cunt l
>>109147431NTA but i also repaired your mom's cunt as part of my side gig.
>>109147404if you were serious, you'd rip out that carpet, lol
>>109147481I ripped out her mum’s carpet
>>109147404That's nice, now fix my smartphone, János.
>>109147115I have a refract reactor from alibaba, a flow hood and fume hood, incubator, pcr machine (it’s broke though) and various glassware/vwr/reagents. Oh grow tent and prop chamber with all the fixingsIt’s impressive for a home lab but literally nothing compared to where I work.
>>109147115Just a laptop. Let me guess, you need more.
>>109147115A hand-me down comp no one was using that was actually very nice at that time (8years ago), two used systems that when I bought were already mid and ages were shy of retiring but they were good deals as at the time I knew the upgraded parts for them were cheap. Could not do that today! Then have like 5 raspberry pis I use for a variety of things including as a dedicated server, another to convert old computer speakers into wireless home speakers, and managing some of my older systems which have needed remote start solutions not possible with the hardware given.
>>109149753>Let me guess, you need more.Depends what you're doing.I've got an sbc in mine, because I'm writing code for it and emulators can't be trusted.
>>109147115A server I built that lives in a Define 7 case and two routers running OpenWRT. The server is for filesharing and VMs mostly. I do have an ancient old tower that I could fix and maybe try getting a k8s cluster or ceph node running on as a cool project.
>>109147115Just an r630 with dual e5 2699v4s in it. It's fun to mess around with enterprise stuff.
>>109147115>epyc 9274F>512GB ram>16tb u.3 raid 10>4x rtx 6000 pro>watercooledbut I'm retarded.
raspberry pi 5 with a usb hdd enclosureyou don't need more
