Picture this: you’re sipping coffee in your garage, surrounded by the hum of a $500 server you snagged off Facebook Marketplace. It’s got 128GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and it’s sipping electricity at a cool $6 a month. Compare that to AWS, where the same setup would bleed you $950 a month. Payback in two weeks? That’s the kind of math that makes you feel like you’ve hacked the Matrix. Welcome to the bare-metal revolution, where cloud costs are getting laughed out of the room. But before you turn your garage into the next Silicon Valley, let’s talk about why it’s dev paradise—and why production needs a proper data center.
