I want this on a t-shirt and I want to wear it while logging into my own untouched InterServer box from 2022. The invoice still processes. Everything is fine.

Scrapes WiGLE for hotspots along a GPX route

Is that actually enforced anywhere people here know of?
DE-CIX did not ask me either. LINX has it in their terms but I have never heard of anyone getting kicked for it. AMS-IX through middleman, they definitely do not care.

Your looking glass lies and we both know it · Networking

I run Vaultwarden on a Hetzner box in Nuremberg. Rotation is a cron job calling the Bitwarden CLI with a service account. Not elegant, but it works.
Your "cloud" is just someone else's computer, but at least Hetzner bills in euro...

OVHcloud give NVMe on this plan I think?
OVHcloud VPS in Gravelines is KVM with NVMe since 2022. I have same plan, confirmed. But check your Hetzner egress to OVHcloud, that is not free bandwidth. Hetzner charge 1 EUR per TB over limit, OVHcloud incoming is free but outgoing...
