    For Google Drive files, you don't need a special account or service to back up to Synology and B2, which I also do. I use the Synology Cloud Sync service to automatically sync all …

    If anyone want's to one-up Weird Al, you can configure an Apple Mac Studio with 128GB of RAM for a mere $4800. https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/mac-studio/20-core-cpu-48...

    Do you mean 15kw? 1.5 is only like 4 panels, it wouldn’t make $400 per month and wouldn’t cost anywhere near $25k.

    It's not free, it was just paid for by other people. If it has to be nearly free for someone to take it, not sure that really supports these being commercially viable.
