From my experience, you can easily repurpose any old computer as long as it boot.

when i sort old computer. i divide them into three categories following the potential computer power.

1. Best tier -> at least 6gb of ram -> it will become a personnal laptop. Put your favorite linux distro on it. Discover what is linux. Here is a entertaining (yes really) video for linux beginner https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uXvT7hHJfIE

put proxmox on it and discover the you are now a server admin ! Congratulations.

Replace the hdd by a ssd for more perceived speed.

2. Second Tier -> less than 6gb of ram -> it will be a bare metal server. Plenty of fun to have. You will restrict yourself to command line. No graphical UI (mouse and screen are not a necessity) Try to connect by ssh as a first challenge or try to do the linuxchallenge. Know that you will fail a lot, but when it work it will be very very rewarding. Put servers on it ! like adblock or anything from here -> https://selfh.st/

3. Last tier -> 2gb of ram or less. Very old computer, it is more of a heating element than a computer. Well it will be a router. Try to put opnsense or opnwrt and learn about networking. To add ethernets ports usb-ethernet adapter from tplink or other work well.

This tier list is from someone that have the luxury of owning multiples of thoses old computer, is quite passionate and work it the field. Your mileage may and will vary. Your need are your own, so try, fail, learn, experience, progress at your own rythm and succeed. Have fun and take care. Report if you have any success of some self-hosting lemmy board ;) You will be cheered upon and given passionate advice. Fail and post your failure and you will have the same reaction ;)

Yes, thank you, my comments are praise and amazement towards contribution like those. There is a lot of work done and ambition it warm my heart. It is still very dangerous and experimental. And should not be attempted.

I have far too little background in chemistry and microbiology to attempt such a project.

Furthermore, mass spectrography (the machine that allow to know the chemical composition of a sample, which for this type of project is critical) is not open source ready (though some attempt were made and were kinda successfull)

I do not have a personal vital need of such project, rest assured. I am still amazed of the work, dedication and selflessness that make this possible.

For thoses that want clarification. Endotoxins are toxins that are present on the surface of bacteria. On ingestion it provoke an immune response like fever or likely an anaphylactic choc that can lead to death.

Here are some questions i would ask her.

"The political and communities environments your personnages evolve are so diverses and so well though. Where do you find such inspiration? especially for the most positive ones ?"

"Do you realise that the hope that you give empower peoples and make them seek and do positive things ?"

"How can we, as a community, help you ?"

"what is your favorite (hot) drink ?"

"what would be the best question for interviewing you ? What do you want to point out ?"

Thank you ! I found it ! openinsulin.org. It is even more infuriating when you know how insulin is made. As a simplification, a bacteria population double every 20 mins. So if you can get ONE bacteria that can already produce it or like the project genetic engineer one from scratch so copyright laws and patents and stuff do not apply. You want to double the production ? wait 20 mins.

Thanks you for sharing such cools projects !!! If you have more like thoses, please continue to share, i will see if i can squeeze some € to them ;)

WTF anarchist open source diy health and science tools ! My good the world is amazing! thanks !!!
