What is your weirdest self-hosting problem you've had to solve? For me: Mouse inside the server.

The mouse did not survive interrogation.

Also mouse not pictured.

No mouse problem, but I’ve had to take measures to prevent cat-related downtime. Cats and power-button at the top is not a good combination.

When I had this problem I disconnected the power button on the motherboard.

Did you reconnect it everytime you had to power it on?

On one computer I had a recessed reset button, so I used that as power.

Another computer I added a wire to an external button double stick taped to the back of the monitor so I can turn on both at the same time.
