Any hw recs? The only thing I haven't tried it on is arm based because I don't have any so if it works better on those then I'll have to wait till I can get my hands on one.
Unfortunately housing comes first 😅

I would recommend buying hardware frim nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83fmet5xmrlm4w5l9gdnsy3q2n7dklem7ezmwfcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz3rhwvaz7tekd3jks6rev3ehyargv9nk66tnxe6h2dn5w43kuerk0fmnwcm4vfc8z6mgweu8j7fhdfhkjmmrxs6k66mnwg6x2cty9ehku6t0dchsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxjmnxduhs5nd6j2 for several reasons.
1. If you buy their hardware you get access to exceptional customer support that you won't get with diy
2. Intel Management Engine disabled
3. nostr:nprofile1qqs9df4h2deu3aae83fmet5xmrlm4w5l9gdnsy3q2n7dklem7ezmwfcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz3rhwvaz7tekd3jks6rev3ehyargv9nk66tnxe6h2dn5w43kuerk0fmnwcm4vfc8z6mgweu8j7fhdfhkjmmrxs6k66mnwg6x2cty9ehku6t0dchsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxjmnxduhs5nd6j2 is imo one of the most important projects in Bitcoin and operate with the highest integrity. I think they deserve the support of plebs.
I kinda have to agree here. I've done the diy thing, and its a great learing experince but everytime ive ended up with unstable HW after 6 months or so.
I'll probably buy a server in the new year.. 👍🏻
Even old guys can do it
