The battery charger outputs ~13.5v (it's a float type charger) and I use the computer PSU for regulation to other devices like the monitor and speakers.

It's just an AGM lead acid battery and a charger. I pulled the charger out of an old RV. I estimate I'll get over 10 hours runtime from it, since I used a 115 amp hour battery. A few solar panels wouldn't be hard to add, but I'm not currently running off grid.

IPS, high pixel density, at least 1920×1080, external power brick, 12v input preferred. My ghetto UPS doesn't have an inverter, everything runs directly off 12v.

I leave them at the BIOS screen with a no OS found error. (having drive issues)

Not my picture, but it's almost the same truck.

Backups every 30 min to 3 continents and a single stable VM. No cloudflare, CDNs, etc. This gives me plenty uptime and I haven't felt the need to add redundant webservers.  DNS is replicated to 4 DDoS protected VPSs and I have never had a DNS related outage when using my own DNS clusters...

I was comparing west coast DCs and EU DCs.

Same applies to US residents on the east coast. For me it's a toss up between EU and western US as far as network speeds and latency goes. 

That is what I do.

The IOPS graph is handy for seeing which VM is (or was) the cause of an iowait spike.

I don't watch TV. Everyone else in the house does.

$200/mo, but TV is included in that price. The bill doesn't say how much is for what service.

Too bad it won't stay below 80ºF on sunny days in the summer.

The second monitor is in use in another location temporarily. 

I have a UPS on my desktop but it's dead in 30 min even at idle. I also have a 400 watt inverter for the car that I can use to recharge the laptops which also can act as extended batteries for Mom and Dad's iPhones.
