This is not a flex. This is a confession.
The rack lives in a closet that used to hold coats. It runs the stuff described in homelab-compose and it runs well, but the cabling is what you’d politely call “aggressively functional.” The UPS battery needs replacing. There is dust I’ve chosen not to think about.
I like it anyway. It’s mine. And every so often I open the closet door and feel unreasonably pleased that the green lights are all on.
