A small homelab gives your AI agents an actual place to live.
Not a browser tab you have to remember to open. Not a session that resets the second you close your laptop.
An always-on box running in the corner of a room: holding context, running cron jobs, executing tasks while you sleep.
Entry hardware for this starts shockingly low. Devices like the Jetson Orin Nano run real agent workloads at 15 watts for around $250.
The agent stops being something you visit. It becomes something that is just always running.
