why is it so subtle, am I just blind?

turned 23 today, maybe that has something to do with it
maybe I just have to get used to it? The more I think about it, the more I accept

If you happen to find a copy of Kubuntu Edgy Eft Knot 3, please let me know.

I’ve been searching for years for something on that beta image.

Updated OP: added new thread to the list:

Ghekko server: A Series of Non-thought out Events Build a PC

Preamble So, my Open BSD Challenge got me thinking, why the hell don’t I have a proper home server? Well, could be few reasons, being a pleb is one, also that I can’t seem to do anything properly could be the other one. Whatever it is, I thought, I can wing it, right? The Purpose in life Just my all-rounder kind of box that will do anything I’ll throw at it to best of its abilities. LAN DNS something like pihole maybe? Storage Git maybe more if it can handle it The Scavenge Hunt And so here were are today. I got meself a Supermicro X8SAX workstation motherboard and Intel Xeon E5530 CPU for free from my brother as he doesn’t use it anymore, what with his Ryzens and shit. So I snatched that. Conveniently I had a heat sink just for it just laying around in it’s original packaging! So that’s a plus. Next, RAM. Well given that unbuffered RAM is more expensive, I’ll just lose some RAM from my main rig. 24 GBs, 16GBs, what’s the difference. I also have some SSDs laying around (used 1 as a backup drive lol) from @mutation666, one of them is probably going to be the OS drive. [image] And I also questionable quality rackmount case laying around, so that’s gonna work just fine. [image] The X-Parts: I want to believe As you might’ve noticed, I am missing some shit. Namely: PSU GPU (Xeon doen’t have any graphics) Storage (I got the SSD for OS drive, but muh data) Class, ain’t happening So I need to get that. I am already contacted some local craigslist guy who sells this: [image] Claims it’s unused and shiipped from US, so seems to be as good as any, the plus is that he’s local, no shipping! Bright Old Future So when I’ll get all this oldish hardware, next steps would be: _InStAlL oPeNbSd* actually set up and confiture the servers … PROFIT! Thanks for reading!
