If you lose power, you can use one of these cables to power your house (or at least, the part of your house on that phase).
This is not how you should do this, but it can work. It is not a good idea (possibly illegal?).

Hopefully you can publish in an open-access journal
if not it would be great if you could share an arXiv preprint :)
You said that no one...
I don't think that was the parent commenter though...
You experience the passage of time as ever increasing in speed, and before long the universe has died, leaving you
immortal and sentient
alone in the cold, dead cosmos, for eternity.
Bonus points: use non-qwerty keyboard for added obfuscation (but keep the qwerty key caps of course).
It is really powerful per watt, and has a built-in UPS. Any homelab type things you could do with that? macOS+homebrew will give you a nice *NIX feel, very familiar if you're a Linux user.
I'm a fan of having a remote homelab computer+disk for off-site storage. This would be a good candidate in that it wouldn't use excessive power at a friend/family's place, but may be overkill (I use a pi3 for that).
Most of the time that leads to them dying.
Well, squishing has a 100% chance of them dying. With a toddler and a baby, having them run loose sadly isn't an option.
We live in a very mild climate, and there's under-deck and fence space around our house, in addition to bushes, trees, and underbrush
fairly suitable for a variety of arachnids. It's not the same as indoors, and survival rate certainly isn't 100%, but it's not the death sentence of going from a climate controlled house to below-freezing outdoors.
Because I can trap mine in a jar and take it outside instead.
I think large planes "look" like they can't work because their "relative speed" is really low
that is, their speed relative to their length. We're used to seeing birds cover tens of lengths per second, whereas a large airliner covers ~1ish per second at takeoff.
Or not, but this always seemed like a plausible explanation as to why planes look impossible. (Though given that hovering birds don't look funny, maybe this is a silly observation...).
I'd say it gets a little different with command line utilities
maybe "utility" is the appropriate term here, but I'd call something like grep a program, not an application (again
"utility" also works).
To be sure, grep is extremely powerful, but its scope is limited.
Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it.

I think the same is true for a lot of folks and self hosting. Sure, having data in our own hands is great, and yes avoiding vendor lock-in is nice. But at the end of the day, it's nice to have computers seem "fun" again.
At least, that's my perspective.
I grew up with a hand-cranked popcorn maker. Then, in grad school, I realized that you don't actually need any of that, just a pot with oil.
I heat up (medium) a tiny bit of neutral oil with a few kernels until they pop. Then I add ~1/4C neutral oil and ~1/3C popcorn kernels. When I can count to ten between pops I turn it off, empty in bowl, drizzle with olive oil and add salt and nutritional yeast (and MSG if you have it).
