Yeah that’s exactly what i do. I have an A record that points to my house and i update it every 4 hours from a script on my router. Been really happy with cloudflare, they have a weird restriction about using your own nameservers, but as long as you are happy with theirs then they seem to be great.

I was thinking about hooking one up to a GPS module to run a local NTP server

That’s right in the range for subfloor heating, obviously a question of whether or not you can get it somewhere that you need it

I suppose that’s very true. But it could be done - if a data center needs megawatts of cooling and is in an area where buildings need to be heated in the winter, then there should be a legal obligation to not just dump that heat.

There’s probably some alternate uses for the heat if these things were well designed. There’s some building in denver that is near a major sewer and in the winter they use a heat exchanger to extract that energy and use it to heat the building.

I’ve seen it done in data center environments where there are two connections to two different switches - so you can do maintenance on either switch without downtime.

Same reason for having dual power feeds to each machine.

Since i’m already running it otherwise, i’ve been running stuff through Home Assistant and using lovelace dashboards.
