But only a little bit, maybe just enough to run a Minecraft
server, which refuses to start on my Raspberry Pi 4
because it has only a meagre 2 GB of RAM.
I had known about Intel NUC tiny PCs for a while, and
how handy they can be to have a dedicated physical PC for
experimentation. There was a very real possibility
that I would have to set one up as a light gaming PC in the
near future, so I thought cutting my teeth on a simpler
server setup would be a good way to get acquainted with this
hardware platform and its Linux support.
