Valid point, but there are other things to consider. The reason I buy Windex is because it saves me time. Instead of buying vinegar, lemons, and rubbing alcohol and mixing them together with water every time I want to clean a something, I just grab the Windex/Lysol/etc. Likewise, I can spend time messing around with getting configs for various things in order, or I can one click deploy something to Heroku/AWS/DO/etc and not have to worry about it too much. It all depends on what's valuable to you. |

An exception is getting rid of limescale, where you need an acid. Citric acid works fine and does not smell.
If you have a wooden floor, a specially made detergent with a wax component is probably also a good idea.
I also have a machine with a private git repo that I keep some shit in - mostly half made things like an dead ant stack simulator, a non-working robot simulator controlled by a un-evolved neural network, a few heuristic Sudoku solvers, a really advanced configuration-management tool that might have worked at one point, and 20 years of random junk like that.
It actually also contains a GPU based Smith-Waterman algorithm using Aparapi that I think actually works and could possibly be moved to github without too much embarrassment. Maybe I should do that...
