Normally a cave would be chock full of fermented food and dried jerky. I don't know how a Yeti would find room in his cave for a powerful server. What's more, running the electric power and the internet cables down deep into the cave must be quite a trick as well.
Basement hosts have it super easy compared to cave hosts. In basements, the electric power and internet cables usually are already built in!
I can imagine that service from a cave host could be much more expensive than service from a basement host!

There was a guy who had all the sources for all of Slackware organized in a repo. I remember looking at it, but I can't seem to find it now. Maybe somebody has a link? Maybe there are additional places to get Slackware sources?
Additionally, I'm curious to hear where our beloved Yeti gets the sources on which he runs his cave based compiler?
I've used a VPS to compile for different CPU architectures. For example, there is a fairly popular riscv development board that originally shipped with only 64 mb of RAM. So, a cloud provider offering slightly more RAM seemed beneficial. A bit of an odd use case but it is what it is I guess.

Is a cave host better than a basement host? /s
I hope everyone gets the servers they want!
Yes. The cave is better, because the cave has The Yeti. Nobody messes with The Yeti, not even online where he's moderator. /s
However, you can always trust him with data and compiling software. I don't know his terms though with regards to CPU usage.
