You really hate to see it happen!!
"That feeling when" - your precious $HIVE's go flying off to the centralized exchanges..

Sometimes it's necessary to take some profits, in order to purchase and secure a much needed physical asset and piece of infrastructure; Its even better when that assets or piece of infrastructure can be put rite back into supporting the network, and earning me back the value I had to remove.

!!! SPKnetwork !!! 1:1 Airdrop Jan. 6th 2021
& @theycallmedan's suprise NFT game

This is where it gets interesting..
If you are "in the know" here on hive, and enjoy listening to podcasts with cool people like Taskmaster, TheyCallMeDan, JonGolson, Matt Starkers, and all the devs that they surround themselves with, than you will know exactly why I'm so anxiouse to upgrade my tech before the end of the year.. SPKnetwork is a mouthful to try and explain, but at the beginning of it all for me is basically a decentralized youtube.. there is so much more underneath the covers, just like hive and alot of the other projects on it..
You should definitely go down the rabbit hole with this project.

If I ever have hopes of being a hive or hive-engine node/witness, than it'd be a good idea to start learning what its like to buy a PC of my own.. which I haven't done done since 2006.. This computer I've been on for the last few years is yet another hand-me-down from my older cousin, who got me into PC gaming.

Well now its 2021, almost '22 and its time for a new computer. Shopping in stores is a thing of the past, but its still a bit of blind-faith when ordering over the internet, especially when its a relatively high dollar item from $200 to $2000 anytime I do this my anxiety goes up with the thought that the item/retailer is bullshit, or that it will get lost, stolen, or damaged in transit.. and then comes the delivery! oooh the poorch pirate..

AnYwAys I yolo'ed it like I do every time, after getting some help from VaulTec and my cousin on which website to go purchase through, and ultimately which computer to buy.. Vaultec helped my with some specs to look for with the idea of mining on SPK in mind, and after bouncing some things back and forth I decided on getting a PC called the "Syber L Pro 200"

And I joked with @shmoogleosukami that this will bee the pretties SPKnetwork thing.

I'm really excited to start fresh on a new computer, and see how it works for the purpose of SPKnetwork, and also see how it does for gaming aswell.
I hope you all will comment and let me know what you think about the PC, and tell me what your thoughts are.
