I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]:

Hopefully I did that?

Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub:

Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!

Not gonna lie, this is really dope! Can I be your friend and drive from Houston for a LAN Party?

He answers this in the FAQ. You’ve got to get into his friend group or get hired by Cloudflare. Not sure which is more challenging!

I probably don't have the chops to work at cloudflare, but if I did, the lan party invites would be a huge selling point.
