Not sure I agree with high AF, but definitely sounds like he’s lying or making up bullshit all the time

Refurbished drive.
I’ve had 4 white label drives running for a number of years without issue, planning on eventually getting 12 more and maxing out my servers.
Unfortunately that’s years down the line :(
Throwing in my own data, I have a small server rack at home that runs a brocade icx4630 switch and dell r720, idles around 250w. My desktop setup, monitors, amp, computer itself etc idles around 200w.
I remember looking into solar some 20 years ago. 5kWh battery bank was practically unheard of and iirc correctly was roughly $1k per kWh. Hopefully somebody with the time can come and correct numbers. Today you can find 5kWh battery banks for ~$2k.
Inverters I remember being about $5k-$10k for house sized and capable of running AC unit. Today roughly $1k-$2k.
Solar panels themselves I’ve not priced, but iirc I remember large arrays being $20k-$30k or more.
The cost to DIY a whole home off grid solar and battery bank system has gotten beyond easier, safer and an absolute fuck ton cheaper
Make your stranded end nice and long and easy to “comb” and flatten out. Get all your pairs lined up and in order and flatten the wires together on a table or other work surface.
I usually cut about 3 or so inches of sleeve off the cable to expose the strands. But same thing applies if you can only cut an inch off, just a little more difficult.
Assuming you have passthrough rj45 ends or whatever they’re called, you can just slip on your end and crimp and let the tool trim the excess wire.
If you don’t you get to go through the process of trimming down and getting the tiny stubs to stay together enough to slide into the connector.
I’m currently hosting vaultwarden on my rack, mostly just because I can really. It’s easy enough and I have plenty of resources.
Proton is amazing as long as you don’t get bit by anticheat, which thankfully is getting better.
Thankfully I don’t play many games with anticheat so almost the entirety of my game library runs on my Linux install.
Big love for Proxmox.

Caddy has been the easiest reverse proxy I’ve setup over the years.
