hi... new user here... i am very glad to be here
imagine a story... you are a volunteer of a non-profit organization that helps people in africa (animal conservation, find water, child healthcare or some like) ... but your talent is to build computers and run servers, so you offer them to develop a website to spread the cause
so, as they have no money (and you either) you go to some junkyards and build a pc from scraps, and install linux, and http server, and colocate the server in y
