On one computer I had a recessed reset button, so I used that as power.
Another computer I added a wire to an external button double stick taped to the back of the monitor so I can turn on both at the same time.
Comment on What is your weirdest self-hosting problem you've had to solve? For me: Mouse inside the server.

You sound like you are one step short of wiring up a giant lever to dramatically pull down when you want to power on the computer.

A lot of newer motherboards have a separate power button next to the case pinouts.

Nah just jam a screwdriver in there to jump the pins.
You shut down your PC though?
