The almost sensible server
bonesboundhome is an IBM x3650 M4
I grabbed it from some random business off marketplace, and with a firmware update it hopefuly won't blow up anytime soon lol
It currently has two Xeon E5-2650's and 384GB of RAM with EndeavourOS (I still do not know why I did this, one day I'll install Alpine) as an operating system. This was running my git server, however at the time of writing that isn't running right now, due to NetworkManager disliking me, and me disliking NetworkManager enough to not be bothered to fix it right now. This was running my NFS server, with NVME storage added in via PCIE, which was mostly setup so I could run MPICH at home for my HPC unit (the class had run out of credit on Setonix and I wasn't going to waste the opportunity for the homelab to actually be useful for once lmao).
I also have written a custom fan curve for this in C - which I will eventually add to my github - although I did write a version of it in python for bonesrunhome, which is alive and well on my github. Arguably the Python implementation is much more sensible, as it isn't doing much more than just running as a script that calls a system call.
