Working hardware is working hardware; form factor doesn't really matter.

My primary DNS server is a rpi.

Currently dealing with really dry cracked lips....

This sounds awful.

I did this with a regular rpi, one of it's io pins and a single npn transistor a while back.

Multimeter to check which power button pin on the mobo is + vs -. - to the rpi gnd, + to the transistor collector, gate to the io pin, drain to rpi gnd.

Whenever the io pin goes high (positive), the transistor shorts the mobo pins 'pressing' the power button.

Script pings the servers ip to check if its not responding; then pulls the pin high for 6 sec to ensure the mobo is fully off, then low for 2 sec, high for 2 sec, then low again.

This was for a system that kept locking up while I was away, so I needed a way to remotely hard-restart it.

Why not pay a local artist to make you a cover?

Skip the whole moral/legal hurdle and help support someone being affected by AIs takeover. I'm sure you can come to a reasonable agreement.

Or put together one yourself. A photo and some filters; or a stylized painting tool.

Don't take this lightly.

This continues to set the stage for a coup against state officials.

Sometimes the local prices are insane too.

I needed a new infrared thermometer the other day; cheapest one I could find locally that wasn't a kids medical forehead thermometer with a tiny temperature range: $56 before tax.

Amazon shipped one for $25 incl tax+shipping.

I'm broke af atm. That makes a huge difference. I feel dirty even opening the app/site; but that price difference is absurd.

I'm not sure how it's possible this wasn't here already.

Why do you think the net was born?

My gaming PC became my self-hosted server around 5 years ago. Now it runs 24/7 serving up media through Emby, providing backup/cloud/vpn services to my mobile devices, DNS adblocking for everything on the LAN/VPN, password manager syncing, and whatever else I feel like playing with :)

Time, energy, and willpower just never seem to come together for gaming anymore. And on the rare occasions it does, that PC still games just fine; even after making the move to Debian last year.

Plot twist: it's actually a RAT

Not a community member here, so I have no opinion on your move; but as a 196 user I commend you on actually asking the question.

Best of luck :)
