            Either:

            1. Go to one of those money eating boxes in stores and around random corners, then check what stuff they have in the “ISP” category. You may struck gold in the pile of shit.
            2. Laptop hanging by wires in your house. You then get a power bill and go to the power company’s building (or again, one of those money eating boxes) to pay.

              1. What? Like a server vending machine? Wtf

              2. Cool so now your power company can’t do business with you and your home ISP cuts you off. If this were someone in the States they’d probably get deported to a random country to boot

                1. Oh whoops, forgot it’s an eastern europe thing. These are everywhere here. It’s still a capitalist business but I like these because of the whole “insert cash” thing. This is where kids put their birthday money to buy Minecrap.

                2. Fair enough… Although I would imagine this happening regardless of if it’s hosted at your house or elsewhere. Could also instead rent some “technical space”, like the 1 square meter apartment Little John would renovate, then hang your laptop by wires there. Then get the check for it via mail… More complicated, I know, but now that we are going this far…
