  But you have a Daddy and Mommy who love you!

  And, a Windows Home Server! Does that make you happy?

  They had me until windows

    The book was written to sell Windows Home Server.

      Still cool.

      And actually not a bad idea from MS, but I’m sure they killed it with MSification.

    Imagine growing up with a Windows home server… ugh

      I’m usually a Windows “shill” or at least a casual defender of it, as I work in a Windows environment and it’s not as bad as people pretend it is. No shade against Linux, I love it and Windows is bad. Just not like “I’d rather self-castrate” bad.

      Anyway…

      But for a home server? Either be super lazy and set up samba shares from your Windows desktop for the drives (avoid having a server at all) or bite the bullet and use Linux. You’ll get so much more out of a Linux server that it’s not even funny.

      I must admit, my home server runs hyper-v, it is free and I have MSDN. Of course inside the hyper-v I run ten linux boxes.

      Proxmox really didn’t exists before and I didn’t want to use VMware.

      Well, considering it hasn’t existed in years, I think you can imagine the answer to your question 😅

      I feel like it would be easier to learn Linux, even if you still used windows for desktop

  I am of the mind that servers belong in restaurants.

  Like… Why do I need someone to take my order and bring me a meal at an office?

    I knew someone who threw away a laptop because the screen broke.

    They see junk

    I see a new home server with built in ups, just rip off the screen.

  Big people have a server at the “office”.
  The office is a boring place where big people go and do boring things.
  Offices are why big people get grumpy, and say bad words.
  But guess what?
  Some servers aren’t boring.
  They don’t go in offices…they go in houses!
  Maybe in your house!
  How does it get there?
  When a mommy and a daddy love each other very much,
  the daddy wants to give the mommy a special gift.

  Not sure if serious (Fry meme)
