My home server is a refurbished HP t630 thin client with 8 gb of ram and a 1tb SSD. I'm running various services, Nextcloud-AIO being one of them.

I definitely do recommend used hardware as it is usually cheaper, more powerful and more environmentally friendly than buying something new. Wouldn't trust a used SSD though.

nb4 someone laughs at us Germans for pulling out of nuclear power: No, nuclear is not cheap. It's literally the most expensive way to generate electricity. Solar is cheap and better for the environment.
I can't be the only one thinking this was rather a reference to "delay, deny, defend/depose", can I?
And after all, current "AI" models are just one step on a longer way, which is what I read as the conclusion of the article.
Still better than living in a dictatorship straight away.
