Good to know. Hadn't thought of going for Pi.

It's kind of a novelty project. Making use of old gear seems noble. And a waste.

At present I only have 7 wishes:

  1. build more FreeNAS systems for all my drives

  2. build a server for decentralizing stuff, maybe VPN, Fediverse, IPFS, Holochain, torrents, etc

  3. build a router with FreeNAS, likely for downloading too

  4. build some more Linux Mint boxes

  5. open a local animation studio

  6. develop and produce my projects

  7. do it all without any income

You might be interested in a vps btw, they use highly effiecient servers and massive bandwidth compared to home servers. Easy to use also, since it's basically your home computer on network roids.

Yep that's my feeling when I revive old stuff. Don't worry about it though, since the population is so high we throw out truckloads of shit everyday. There is things to worry about and things you have no control over, typically I have zero to worry about besides eating.
