The computer @ my ๐
Some while ago (not more than 1 month), i was exploring in a forum from my country, and i found a person selling a HP business model PC at $100.000CLP ($125 USDs), it was very cheap taking in account the components that were inside.
So I bought it, cleaned the dust and installed a nVME SSD of 250GB (a "Western Digital Blue SN550 250 GB") on it. And then i installed Arch Linux in a BTRFS partition (I LOVE TRANSPARENT COMPRESSION).
Very happy with it for now, no problems.
Technical specs
- Exact Model: HP 280 G3 SFF Business PC (3WU20LT#ABM)
- Location: My house lol
- CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8500 CPU @ 3.00GHz (6 Cores) (Literaly better than my own PC)
- RAM: 8GB
- Operating System: Arch Linux
- Storage: 250GB nVME SSD PCI-E 3.0 + HDD Seagate Barracuda of 1TB (ST1000DM003-1SB102) (Used with ~8531 Power On Hours)
- Network Speed: 900Mbit/s (That is what the speedtest says)
Someday i will try to mitigate Intel ME on this machine, it has the version
12.0.10.1127
, so if someone has experience mitigating Intel ME, just shoot into matrix
Rented VPS running @ ๐บ๐ธ
The first server that i bought seriously, used mainly for hosting a Justlog instance and other shit that i like to host. It's from the guys at BuyVM, very happy with them (not sponsored BTW), good prices, good CPUs, good network speeds, and good support.
I also bought a "Block Storage" of 250GB but i upgraded it to a
500GB one because i was running out of space and i moved everything to the 500GB block storage with
rsync
without any loss of data.
Technical specs
- Location: United States, New York
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor (Just 1 core assigned to the VPS)
- RAM: 1GB
- Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 11
- Storage: 20GB on main drive, 500GB in the Block Storage
Oracle VPS @ ๐จ๐ฑ (New)
So my old rented VPS was utter shit, some day it just stopped receiving requests in SearXNG and every search engine was throwing 404 or Timeout because of rate limits.
That was the tip of the iceberg, it was enough, the server had very bad network performance and a shit CPU so i just canceled it and move into the Free Tier of Oracle. The old VPS provider (Opencloud) even deleted my pending invoice after complaining about the server lol.
So now in this server i host SearxNG and Rimgo, some essential services that needs to be always up.

- Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 (The only decent one of the free tier)
- Storage: 45GB
- Network Speed: 480Mb/s
Rented VPS @ ๐จ๐ฑ (CANCELED, UTTER SHIT SERVER)
My main inspiration to rent this VPS was hosting privacy oriented services, mainly SearXNG, now it hosts more things like this danbooru like counter that you can link to a website and see how many people visited your webpage/article/etc.
But well, this server kinda sucks a lot because, it's cheap as fuck, and the network speed and latency are really awful, but it works. They also claim that their VPS are better than the Amazon, Linode and Digital Ocean ones... If I had more money I would rent another VPS from a better provider.
