True, I hope i will be able to do that over the years!

Not really ahah!

Probably as powerfull as your Raspberry 4 tho.

I'm sure you'll find some weird nerd like me to get it off your hands

Oh... you just remind me that I forgot to put thermal paste back on it.. (the server is actually on right know)

And it's not for 24/7 use, no worries for my bill ahah!

I'm glad I still have a CD-DVD burner on my laptop for this ahah!

I still can't figure out if there is a web interface for "managing" this thing, I know IPMI work, but I'm starting to test things around those ASM ports in the back... Do you have any insight on that by any chance ?

I did get Debian 12 installed on this thing, hard drive configuration was awful (you need a CD for that!!)

Get a PIX firewall to keep us out!

https://github.com/sysadminsmedia/homebox

Seems like they already have versions ready!

Isn't it exactly what I did with the server though ? :)

Well, not in a real museum but yeah ahah

Indeed it wasn't clear that I made the article, sorry

But still, don't tell everyone to throw stuff away, tell them that they can still learn a lot while trying to make it run, but that it is not for 24/7 use only, except if power is really cheap (don't assume everyone is paying high price for power)

It is 64bits, I got Debian 12 on it. Don't assume when you don't know!

For the power, of course it's consuming like hell, but it's just for fun that I take a look at old hardware! Just enjoy some hardware pictures!

Please, first, start by reading the article.... Stop wanting to throw everything in the bin, old hardware are still relevant to learn how the world was made of in the past. Would you say to an archaeologist to throw the 2000+ years old pan he found because he can get a new one for cheap online ?

I actually like it, margin is maybe a bit much. For the apple extra margin, gnome app can add any buttons they want on those dialog, it is up to app devs to add an extra margin between some button!

Be the change you wanna see! But yes I feel you man. I created a small app to post content from reddit to a community (manually) to populate some of my community a bit while waiting for other users on Lemmy.

we all started somewhere, don't be afraid to post questions in [email protected] or maybe in [email protected] (if it's linux-related)

Some nice people will help you for sure!

Why not, old hardware can ne really cool you know! It's not for running 24/7 of course, just to sée what once was a cool and expensive product

Ooo, that'd be fun, and scary, I never done such a thing, maybe I could look at this some day !

Of course and I tried to search it, didn't find the download on the Cisco website sadly, nor the md5sum for this specific file, I found some other sums tho.

Cisco has a tendancy to remove download or block them behing an account with a licence...

Me too! but now it has this weird "retro" feel when you stumble upon something powered by a PowerPC processor

Lemmy is more than one website. Also, yes of course she knows
