There's a local ISP in town here. Most of the businesses use it. I could approach them and ask how much it would cost to host a server at their property. Then it's just a matter of convincing people to help me raise $9,000. Something like, let's get a Guix Power9 build server that guix people can hack on. If you give $10, you get a guix.gnu.org/~username webpage/gemini webpage for a year. If you donate $20, you get the previous perks plus an email account and so on. Would you like to help me work on this? > > Im still jealous of your 32GB Ram server, if you have enough ICT > signal you may as well switch to a leaner laptop which interacts with > your mothership. That 32GB RAM server is for sale! For $200 I can sell it to you for 16GB of RAM. For $300 I can sell it for 16GB of RAM. If you live in the U.S., shipping would be pretty easy. > > FYI, Im getting increasing satisfaction from Gemini - so my RAM needs should be shrinking considerably. > > Also, because of the Guix Linode cookbook (thanks guys!)
