The full story

The owner had run a homelab on a big desktop PC for two years and moved it to a Beelink SER5 mini PC in about 30 minutes, after asking Claude how to convert the Proxmox environment. They were surprised how easy it was.

A month later it had been running around the clock with five containers and five virtual machines with no problems, and they say it is much faster than the old setup.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.

Privacy. No accounts. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only if you accept them; no ads or cross-site tracking. Searches are counted anonymously (just the words) to show what's popular, and so are clicks on Ask Claude (just the count). The Claude connector only receives the search words your Claude sends it.
