They’re expensive because it’s the last one you’ll ever need ofc

My partner got me a water bottle in the late 2010s, its still going just fine. Few scratches on the paint now and minor dents in places but that is it.

Could do with an insulated flask that can hold strew. Boil some veg/stock in the morning and pour into the flask, it cooks during the day and can have it as my lunch at work. Similar to cooking in a slow cooker or haybox.

No. You need permission from the (local) government to live anywhere. Houses come with this permission, but if you buy a field or woodland it does not. Fuck all chance of getting it outside of some very special edge cases.

What would you do with this old PC if you had €0 to invest in it?

The RAM makes it harder to say get a new PC though.

If you don't need the RAM then a mini PC of some form (latte panda?) might be a better choice, very low power consumption on some of them.

But another thing to consider is if the server isn't running 24/7 then power usage is lower too. Depends what you actually do with it. It has storage, backups? For that it only needs to turn on for a few minutes/hours a week and then shutdown again.

Yep. Everything is designed to force individualism. You need to buy a house, illegal to live in a tent even if you own land which is comparably cheap.

So I can legally buy an acre of woodland for under £20k, possibly £10k at a push though they usually charge more per area for small patches, depends on location. I could also build several cabins or put up multiple tents, so far all legal.

The moment someone lives there, illegal. The government can now seize the property. They have done so in the past when people have tried.
