My speculative investigations into using server racks to create home furniture are now viewable online, at their own new website.

Server racks as home furniture.

@chenoehart I hate how much I like this: I am seriously getting Serial Experiments Lain vibes + minimalistic living right here. I am also getting the "look how easy it is to install kitchen cabinets and drawers" vibes, plus I'd know where to put any free rackmounts I find locally... šŸ˜ŽšŸ’–
@chenoehart So damn good. Thank you.
@chenoehart I like it! You should add some Living-Room add-ons like a (movable) TV Holder. Maybe you can get some additional inspiration from Dieter Rams "Regalsystem 606"
@Eissaht Yeah, I thought about a TV module. I had a list of additional add-ons I wanted to include, while I was also focusing on presenting the ones I’d already created.
@chenoehart Would love it would be practical. But i see a problem with cleaning. Dust has easy entrance to everything, no way to reach underneath for cleaning. And half of the components are open to the backside. So stuff gets lost easily sadly.
@chenoehart can we add "easily convert abandoned data centers into affordable housing to help address housing shortages" to the benefits?
@chenoehart Has there been any load testing yet?
@chenoehart Wait you can create an all dressing room ? 😳
@chenoehart This just popped up on the other place
@chenoehart that hanging sock, no matter what tech you use to build furniture, is eternal
@chenoehart EUROCARDS FOREVER ! šŸ˜Ž
