Why would you use a laptop as a server? Are you retarded?

my headless optiplexserver still chugs along great
I mean sure I could build like a proper nas/server or whatever but I can't be bothered at all not even a little

my speakers must be like 30 years old at least no idea what they even are some sony bookshelves from a hifisystem long since dead

ironically I bought an S25 a few months back and cannot be bothered to set that up and switch. It's still in the box. I may as well trade it in for an S26 but what's even the point I doubt I'll be bothered to switch to that either.

>only $120

I have a thinkpad t14 gen 5, with a replaceable battery and 2x32 gb ddr5 sodimm, and I don't want to go back to my x220

>>108616112
I'd really like a Framework but there's really no usecase where I need more than my T430 (with a few upgrades). Not even using my laptop much anyway.

Nowadays they arent worth it at all, at least not for euroGODs like me.
>T480, ~150€
>New battery, +30€
>Extra 8Gb of RAM, 70€
>1Tb SSD, 120€
>Total= 370€
i understand the appeal but after adding all the (necessary) upgrades you might as well get a new laptop.

I have a crush on her and on her accent.

she's probably a freak but you know that thang hairy

I have repurposed every piece of hardware I own. I build a new machine every 5-7 years.
>3 desktops
Mine, wife on previous, turned oldest into NAS
>Laptop(2016)
Random on the go reasons
>Optiplex (free but also from 2016)
Currently just a game server
>Thinkcentre (free from it friend 2021)
HTPC

Why would I throw things away?

I saw the pic in the catalog and got a little bricked.

I use old thinclients for servers all the time. You can get them for under $20 a lot of the time.

as I get older I realize how much of tech enthusiast discussion is just poorfag cope dressed up to look like it isn't

>desktop for compute-intensive tasks
>T480 as my most used machine

for me it was:
>T480, 180€ (i7 model, has the Nvidia GPU too but I disabled it)
>new external battery, 30€
>glass trackpad, 40€
>replacement keyboard, 35€ (it came with a non-backlit one)
>AX210, 12€
>new screen panel with better specs, 65€
>64GB RAM, 100€ (bought a year and a half ago during black friday, before RAM started increasing in price)
>1TB SSD, 65€ (same as the RAM)
pretty expensive yes, but it's a very comfy machine that I use most of the day, so it was worth it. my A485 has most of the same mods except 32GB RAM (bought for 70€) and 512GB SSD, and it cost me 160€ instead of 180 for the T480. also pretty comfy

need to see her brown nipples

Kill this ugly chink. Fuck she's fucking ugly and I hate her. Kill this bitch holy shit my physiognomy receptors are flaring up. I hate this fucking ugly onions chink. Ching Chong bitch

>Are you still using old hardware regularly or did you fall for the bleeding-edge-soldered-RAM-non-removable-battery meme?
A 2012 Macbook Pro running Windows 7 has become my daily driver.
This was not the outcome I expected.

Fuck you niggers. Here T480 costs $250+ now because of this
