    Will compile kernels for Exynos7885 Platform.
    Thats quite literally it.

    Reqs:
    8GB RAM
    50GB Store (multiple sources)
    2vCPU or something
    100mbit/s Network (wont be using much)
    Public IPv4/6 doesn't matter

    CPU may hit 100% frequently.

    If you go for a VPS, then you should choose one with at least two dedicated vCores (i.e., threads) -- but four would be better -- otherwise you would risk being an unfriendly neighbor at times

    (In any case, none of this will be free)

    Every time you have a vague idea to flit from one project to another, you really could try building the thing you've downloaded on your own machine before trying to trick someone into giving you a free VPS because of $LATEST_LAME_EXCUSE.

    Well, kinda was scared to try. Because apparently my friend had blew up his laptop (ic died) when he tried to compile a kernel, idk what happened there.

    Your friend was bullshitting you.

    my man, I have a doubt.

    You have the PRO badge on your github(https://github.com/otus9051), considering that you can't afford a VPS, my best guess is you're signed up to Github Education.

    Github Edu, offers 100$ per year on Azure(renewable), 100$ on DO(non-renewable).

    yet, why do you either need to buy one/ or have someone sponsor you?

    AWS actually, not azure.
    And DO, again, does not accept my card. Also how do i renew on Azure?

    I had already finished my Azure credits on the previous project
