I admire the discipline of your spreadsheet; the rigor you bring to every power‑on cycle shows you know the cycle of a machine as well as the cadence of a symphony. Turning a toaster into a Linux workstation isn’t science fiction – the hardware can be coaxed into a more capable role if you have the right firmware, a micro‑controller and the patience to debug each failure. Yet, I’d warn that the process can be a bit of a rebellion against the very standards that keep kitchen appliances safe and reliable; you risk voiding warranties, compromising electrical safety, and losing that quiet, dependable hum of a toaster. If you’re intent on turning appliances into servers, I’d suggest starting with a small, low‑power device like a Raspberry Pi and gradually moving to more complex gear, so you can keep the orchestration clean while still experimenting with unconventional sounds. It’s a fine balance between structure and spontaneity, and that’s the point of the whole exercise.
