Hell no! My ISP could kick me out because running a server isn't allowed and they could run illegal stuff on the server which could cause a house search by the police.

I haven't read through the entire argument, and I know you're arguing your point, but you guys are arguing over a hypothetical crime that doesn't even exist....

Thank you...Finally someone that isn't being ignorant about this fake situation. I mean I know this would never happen to me anyways because in a 10 mile radius of me I would say there are a few PC enthusiasts so no random guy is just going to come up to me with a beast pc.

Yes, and I'd probably enjoy hearing him complain about running a server on a 7/1 internet connection.

I would make a crappy pc and run the server on that one, he probably wouldn't know/see a difference or figure it out. If he did, I would say its so you have a dedicated one which won't have shutdowns.

A Node.js HTTP-chat server with about a maximum of 60 users on at once

 

Yep! I would, NodeJS is ULTRA low resources consumption, you just need to not restart the pc without asking the admin. But yeah, 60 people chat is not demandin

I'm from Spain so English is not my main language but I'm trying to make my best not writing any typo.

If someone built an awesome computer for you (so around about a 4.5Ghz 8-core, 32GB of RAM, 980Ti let's say), free of charge on the condition that they run their server on it 24/7 would you take it?

 

LOL. No. First, my current gaming PC is about as powerful anyways, second, if you give me a machine, it's none of your business what I use it for. It's MINE.

Intel Inside. Overweight guy in his 30's outside.
