    I wasn’t degrading. There are many nice , well equipped racks and there are smaller form factor setups, of which if they serve a good purpose and perform as expected, that’s all that matters. It’s always interesting to me the ingenious ways selfhosters will come up with to solve certain constraints, or maybe problems. With 3d printing we can make our own racks, and pieces parts for field expedient modifications or repairs.

    When I was a wee lad, I could have never dreamed how far technology has brought us. I’ve watched a fad called the internet completely envelope the planet. It’s pretty wild man.

      Right? I still remember my parents and their friends telling me Internet will never take because if they want to know the weather they can turn on the radio. Glad I didn’t listen, it’s what has paid the bills ever since.
