I have 96GB of ECC DDR3 laying around with nothing to put it in. I should find some low-power hardware that will take it.

“96GB of DDR3” will never really be “low power”, take it from a guy who built a homelab with a DDR3 machines a while ago…but you should still pick up whatever hardware you can as soon as you can. Like, seriously, they’re taking personal computing away from us.

B-bu-buh-buht muh cloud computing, and S3 buckets, and no need for physical, and non-ownership!

This is exactly why I started moving my shit off Proton Drive and into my external hard drive. Yes, the Proton Suite is private and secure, but I want to own my shit.

Also why I'm moving my shit off Bitwarden and onto KeepPass.

Backups are key, Lemmyngs!
