I have an old mac mini intel box that I can wipe and do whatevs with.

What can I do with it that is in line with #permacomputing / #neighborhoodfirst / #solarpunk

My skillset for coding/dev is firmly in the “your worst cowboy QA engineer nightmare” but I am willing to learn to do things better.

Current aspirations would be to set up one of those digital prepper systems that could provide weather, agriculture, knowledge system/archive.

Thoughts? pointers? and even “learn to set up a linux server at tutorial N” etc is welcome.
