Silicon Pirates

Homelab infrastructure, simulated properly. Power, networking, and storage aren't abstractions here — they're systems you actually wire together, one cable at a time.

BUILD IT.

Real power & thermal systems — grid slots, PDU/UPS chains, overload and brownout risk down to individual outlets, hourly billing tied to load and time-of-day pricing. Layered networking — routers, switches, DHCP, ISP uplink, a live bandwidth graph driven by your actual hosted-game players, AI compute rentals, and mining activity. Storage & disaster recovery — NAS-backed storage with real capacity, growth, sharing, and failure states. An 18-device roster across multi-rack operations with cross-rack cabling.

BREAK IT.

Device degradation, thermal modeling, and random faults that force real maintenance decisions. A rotating target board and scan/exploit/steal hacking tools — go on offense against other racks. Three hacker collectives with ransomware mechanics gunning for your rack right back.

DEFEND IT.

Firewalls, Heat, and Reputation stand between your uptime and the next intrusion. Client contracts, including paid security audits, put your defenses to the test. Darknet and used-device markets for gear you won't find in the regular shop.

Full terminal with man-page documentation and scripting. Optional free registration unlocks the player Marketplace — your progress carries over either way. Premium cosmetic shop: skins, nameplates, trinkets. Never pay-to-win.
