Sometimes I’m supposed to be working on bad servers, but I’m actually remoted home working on good servers.
The day I added the keys to my home server on my work machine was the day my productivity plummeted
I wouldn’t want to do that, I don’t trust bad computer enough to work on good computer with bad computer
you haven’t seen the state of my server have you
It can’t be worse than an outdated public facing Windows server, right?
This is way too accurate. With a buddy I even have what our wifes call playdates, where we are messing around with proxmox, containers and linux distros. We both have some old poweredge servers, laptops, raspberry pies and old phones to mess around with. Nothing useful has come out of that so far, although we’re preparing a lemmy and mastodon instance, so we’re getting there.
I’d expect the work servers to be better because I can’t afford to spend thousands per server, but maybe I’m just spoiled with regards to work hardware.
It’s not about the server being strong or weak. Good server is the one you associate with your own projects and hobby, bad server is the one you associate with work and oblications :-)
The worst thing is when everything is airgapped. Tasks that take 5 minutes at home end up taking a week because there’s always something not being available or whatsoever.
