• circa 2019 gaming laptop

I have a new laptop and don’t want to let this one languish in my closet. Any ideas on what I can do with it? TIA.

    Game server, plex media server, self hosted pihole, add a vault warden server, stuff like that :)

      I second this. It sounds like a pretty decently specd laptop. If you have any interest in self hosting you could install proxmox on it and go from there.

      That’s what my gaming desktop turned into and I found it really fun to learn about. Just a warning though, it didn’t take very long for me to want to upgrade hardware for my self hosted environment haha
