    Hardware Advice

    Should I use an existing computer or get a "new" one?

    Thank you, I appreciate it!

    As for why I don't just share mine - I was living in university housing until this month so I couldn't just give them access to my server then because I'm sure I'd get an email from university IT about it. Now, it's mostly the fact that my parents use Rokus - I use Tailscale as a VPN for my server, and unfortunately they don't support Roku. My mom isn't tech-savvy at all, so trying to set up a HTPC for them or some sort of device on their network to route the traffic through Tailscale is probably not worth the trouble and it's just easier to set up an entirely new server for them.
