My "production" home lab is 3 Optiplex 3050 with i7-7700. They work great and are pretty low power.

My last job had a massive wall of screens. And it was explicitly to impress government officials.

It had a news live stream playing (cycling between CNN, MSNBC, and ABC News), the weather, live camera feeds of both our on site and offsite DR data center, as well as live feed of our store room and basement (where all the cooling and power was routed). The screens also displayed all of our dashboards like nagios, Citrix, and Oracle. There was one that gave alerts if a system was down.

And this was all displayed on an array of 3 rows and 4 columns of 55 inch TVs using a chrome extension called "Revolver" to cycle through.

We actually only used like 3 of the total 20 rotating screens and it was way more efficient to have them running on my own 55" TV as a monitor just using power toys to give it a dedicated corner and then the rest could do emails and news.

Its how you can tell PDP fans weren't paying attention. He promoted it a few times but it didn't gain any traction and he abandoned it.

Or maybe it just didn't help with the fascism allegations from the bridge moment and the Fiverr incidents since those all happened about the same time.

Hell, he had Ben Shapiro host an episode of LWIAY. Sure it wasn't peak genocide apologizer we have now Benny Boy, but he was still a verifiable dick head grifter.

That was among the most brain rot tier shit I've ever seen.

He's also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.

There's a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled "Subscribe to PewDiePie" besides being a topical meme.

Odd since it's arguably just as easy to make a new reddit account

When I stopped watching in 2018/2019 he had his collection of edgy scandals, but I mostly worry about his book club that featured Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson amongst the authors he's recommended.

I have no idea if he's stopped/apologized/started being at least progressive. But that's why I wrote him off years ago

I doubt it will be a meaningful change.

And I don't know how much I want to share a community with Pewds community. He had been pushing fascist ideas for a while. I have no clue honestly if he's gotten better, but those are my misgivings.
