Ah Chicago, the city with The Bean, deep dish pizza, Sears Tower, and so much more. A city with culture. And to top it all off, a Hive seed node.
It's been added to my global(currently US only though) constellation of nodes which you can use by adding hiveseed.rishipanthee.com:2001 to your P2P seed nodes list.
╰─○ host hiveseed.rishipanthee.com
hiveseed.rishipanthee.com has address 23.150.40.194
hiveseed.rishipanthee.com has address 192.197.201.84
hiveseed.rishipanthee.com has address 121.127.34.19
hiveseed.rishipanthee.com has IPv6 address 2602:2b7:d11:5916::2
hiveseed.rishipanthee.com has IPv6 address 2602:fb95:102::3
hiveseed.rishipanthee.com has IPv6 address 2602:fb95:2::4
Or if you prefer to just use the Chicago one, you can add hiveseed-us-chi1.rishipanthee.com:2001 to the same list.

While this took longer than I'd have liked(blame Unitas Global for failure at every step of the way, and praise Hurricane Electric for getting us everything needed to get a circuit going in under 5 hours, excluding the datacenter running the cross connect), it's finally here. The host machine is running a 7950X3D with 64gigs of ECC DDR5 RAM(soon to be 128 GB as soon as I can find a ram supplier who's shipments to the DC don't get lost) and it's connected to the internet with a 1G port(capable of 2.5G, but will soon be 10G once an Amazon order arrives).
Sometime next week I plan on setting up the clone of https://snapshots.hive.blog/snapshots/latest/ from BT and team.
Not much else to this post. Just wanted to let you guys know it is ready.
