Do you guys have your own servers and what do you do with them? Favorite apps/services?

I have an Ivy Bridge Optiplex running a Minecraft server for friends and an HTTP server for sharing big files with others. It runs Debian, and uses Spigot for Minecraft and Apache2 for HTTP hosting. I use SSH to manage it headlessly. Every night it's setup to make a backup of the Minecraft server from the 240GB SSD to the 1TB HDD. Occasionally I copy the most recent backups on the 1TB HDD to my main computer. Sometimes I use the server for big downloads, ffmpeg renders, and anything else I don't wanna tie up my main computer with. "screen" is a very useful program for starting a command and then being able to exit the SSH session.
