@WrCombs Well this is break/fix tech. So I kind of agree with @JaredBusch here.
It's extremely low skill level required in that "remove this and put this in place of it".
There would be no diagnostics in that case, and I'm not really wanting to get into a "break/fix" scenario with em.
And in the real world, you generally don't have this at all. You call your vendor and they just replace the whole thing. It's not worth it for them, even with all of their parts and testing potential, to do that in the field.

I'd set up a Plex server in the past but it didn't have any media to put on it and therefore just tore down might be worthwhile maybe I can find some media to digitize and put on there

I bought an external tuner and attached my plex to that.

I was definitely considering setting up a home PBX but I don't know if I want to subscribe to any actual phone numbers

You can learn a lot without doing that. Although voip.ms makes it SO cheap.

And you can make calls without buying a phone number at all. Just pay per use.

What option is that? I don't recall seeing that (granted this was some time ago)

VoIP.ms has never required purchasing a number to have an account and setup a trunk.
You simply have no way to receive calls from the PSTN.
