The second option seems to provide a lot better value for money, and I like the idea that there's enough resources available for further experimentation and also running a training stack on there so that training doesn't have to happen on the live stack (which was a bit of a challenge during DebConf). I found that OBS runs fine on 4 modern AMD cores (that's getting 30fps at 720p using 25% CPU or 60fps at 1080p using 50% cpu) without needing a hardware GPU. So, even though option 1 might even be enough for everything, I think that for what one more sponsored online attendee would cost we would get plenty of more cores that we could certainly make use of. -Jonathan -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Jonathan Carter (highvoltage) <jcc> ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ https://wiki.debian.org/highvoltage ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋ https://debian.org | https://jonathancarter.org ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ Debian, the universal operating system.
