Your own server at home is very useful and a nice hobby.
Solar water heating can save you a lot of money and being able to take a long warm shower basically for free is very nice.
In general things that lower your monthly expenses (rent, heating, electricity, insurance etc.) are super helpful to give you a sense of freedom. Tired of you stupid bullshit job? No problem if your living expenses are very low, just quit and look for another one without any stress.
What else could one do to lower their expenses, do you think? Especially in a flat, it feels like I don’t really have alternatives.
Also, I would really like to get into self hosting, mostly for websites. I have an old Nexus 7 which I want ro experiment on, bit I might get a Raapberry Pi for a more permanent solution.
Most of western society at least for the younger generations is basically a modern form of serfdom.
Not all of it is by mischievous design, but the way western society is structured basically forces you to work and something like 80% of the returns are directly diverted to someone else’s pocket. And people are too deluded & busy to realize that, otherwise we would have had a revolution yesterday already.

A Rasberry works, but an old laptop or a NUC is probably better.
Yeah in a flat you don’t have much choice, but you can always try to move somewhere else.
Why are those better? Is it that they’re simply more powerful? I was thinking of the Pi for the low power consumption.
If you are just starting out a x86 system is a bit easier I think, but sure a RasberryPI will also work.
Thanks! The difference in architecture didn’t occur to me, but now I see
Exactly this, I think I’ve heard it being called something like “economical freedom”, and this is absolutely the best thing.
