I tend to name mine after their physical appearance, though I’m leaning towards space-related names now.
I’ll copy a Discord message I sent someone while explaining my naming scheme:
in chronological order: my very old laptop was black and grey so it was Batman my first build had orange/gold fans so it was Aurum my next build was black and white so it was Mono my current build had lots of RGB so it was Nova (like supernova) my home server has the BitFenix wings logo so it was Flight my laptop is sleek and pretty speedy so it was Comet
I run a home server with an i5-4590 and I haven’t seen it use more than 35W. I’m still looking to upgrade to a newer but lower power CPU (ideally one of those super low wattage chips with similar or better performance like an R7 5700U or i7-1260U).
If power usage is a concern and you don’t need much raw compute, a Pi (or similar SBC) should serve your needs just fine.
If you need a decent middle ground, take a look at mini PCs, they tend to use efficiency-focused laptop chips which are way more powerful than an SBC but sip power compared to a full-fat system.
Looks fine for your first website! I would change the colour of the text, though. Black on another dark colour is kinda harder to read. You can catch these problems by opening Firefox Dev Tools (F12), going to the Accessibility tab, and changing “Check for issues” to “Contrast”. It’ll list all the elements that have too low a contrast ratio.
Infinite growth is not a core part of capitalism. You’re right there. But do you know what is? Pursuit of profit. And do you know what leaves dollar signs in companies eyes? Pursuing infinite growth. Infinite growth results in infinite capital, in theory. Such growth is not a requirement of capitalism, but it is the logical conclusion when you throw sustainability out of the window. And boy, do we know that corps love doing that!
At least you didn’t choose Welsh towns or lakes in Massachusetts…
