My computer is no Instagram thot but it's still good.

This is my Plex server.

Everyone always says to me

"Omg please. Put it out of its misery"

"How is it still running?"

"MY EYES!!! MY EYES!!!"

but this computer is the little engine that DOES.

Because IT DOES what it's supposed to.

H8rs gonna h8

I only partially agree with this statement.  It's fine for a computer to look like this, but it's also perfectly fine if someone wants their computer to be aesthetically pleasing.  Computers can be a form of artistic expression.

I really don't care how my system looks but I do make sure it's safe to operate and isn't totally falling apart or anything can catch in the fans. I would be fine with your system if it had side panels and is securely positioned and nothing it loose inside.

While I agree it doesn't really matter as long as it works - I cant for the life of me understand why you would "take care of your components" this way.  The reason I cant understand it is, I would fix all these issues (with probably little to no money spent if I had access to my parts) for even more "IT DOES" what its supposed to do.

Lego's, a empty pen tube cut down, anything but you can damage that slot (as I mention above - no NEED to damage it)

1. Lazyness (primary reason)

2.this was a cleaner build but parts kept getting swapped or replaced or added.+ Parts got lost.

3. This is an old build

4. Heat started to build, fans needed to be added

 

It's missing a leg

Right all well and good, I don't mind jank - but a lot of this jank is well within the Jank Users control and as a fellow Jank Artist I personally think that you are risking breaking your components (and that's the part that perplexes me) is all (and that's okay too)
