@whitequark @MaddieM4 @spacehobo @ariadne We are on the verge (due to geopolitical/supply chain issues) of having a shortage of affordable computing hardware *designed for use as on-premise servers*, but an abundance of hardware sold as surveillance-subsidized garbage. Preparing for a future where we need to repurpose this makes sense, I think. Even if it's not the way you would approach things, it's an approach that speaks to a lot of people.
