Hardware · Server

This is my personal server for services, AI, and more.

I bought a used workstation off Blocket (the Swedish equivalent of Craigslist, let's say), and then started retooling it for server use. It's a bit loud, power-hungry, and heavy, but it is handy to have this much power on tap for computing and AI tasks.
