     @a1ba And if you're a professional sysadmin, having a homelab is working beyond work hours.

     @a1ba I think it's even worse than ETS during free time, and more like using a professional simulator during free time.
     Specially as quite a lot of the homelabs seem to reproduce the same kinds of setups as corporate, including the horrible parts, while their jobs should have a lab environment.
     
     And at least on dev side of things you can often have the stuff related to dayjob being done during work hours.
     (Interestingly haven't had to ask about how upstreaming works yet for current job at Open Group, and it has a lab with few machines)

     @a1ba our home lab looks a lot like an early 2000s university network

     @a1ba @atax1a Heh, part of me wants that because of wanting to have fun with Sun Rays.
