Old PoE switch? I have some 3750s that don't see regular action because they're loud, hot, and powerhungry

No black friday deals on electricity costs sadly

I work in a datacenter and somehow our stuff keeps working in 100f+ temps with humidity that makes the data hall feel like a swamp in the summer and shredded moths in the heatsinks and fans so you're probably okay

It's homelab, do any of us actually have hardware that isn't being underutilized?

I wanna stand up a netware server at some point but it's also kind of intimidating as someone over a decade younger than netware lol.

Unironically the fact that there aren't far more computer museums than there are now is a travesty

People here are increasingly forgetting that it's homeLAB not homePROD. A lab is for learning and experimentation, power efficiency isn't really an issue as long as you're learning something and having fun...
