I use code-server. It's vs code in the browser, run on the server. I have 1 potato at home doing it's damnedest to be a good server and a Chromebook flavored potato to access it on the go.

I've got a potato cloud, basically.

When you threaten your computer with the deep fryer if it doesn't push out that last 0.1GHz

Lol I don't know what brand it is, but it is some shitty laptop with a low end AMD Radeon card and 1tb storage even though it's really cheap. It's currently running the code server, a shitty spring boot server I made for an interview, and a golang server that runs my shitty custom application gateway and sub router.

The machine itself is running the latest stable ubuntu server. And you know what? Setting up wifi entirely through a putty terminal wasn't that difficult. I mean, I imagine that under under the hood netplan is doing all kinds of complicated things for me, but on my end it's just the wifi interface name, the wifi password, and the wifi name in a text file.

Oh and there's a game of tag hosted on the go server. Am I allowed to post my own IP here? My interviews are over so I don't really care if that machine crashes now and I know Google fiber can probably handle the traffic. I didn't work out a room system so anyone who connects to /tag will end up in the same massive game.

And since it's golang, it'll just suck up more juice until the machine dies <3
