Swelled up like a frog really?

Yeah, the BBU packs on those 9260s are notorious for it. Mine never got that far but I opened the case once and the pack had a definite bulge, like a pillow that had been slept on too long. Threw the whole thing in...

147 days but this still bugs me

I sat through one of their webinars once, it was four hours about "stakeholder engagement frameworks" with no actionable outcome

Anyway has anyone actually found a registrar that just rolls this into the...

Huh. TIL. I don't use them but that's useful to know for the spreadsheet.

Still think for most people the boring providers win, but I get the use case now.

Lightsail SG is $5/1GB, same as Linode used to be. AWS network is excellent but you get 1TB transfer and slower CPU than Vultr. Also their "Singapore" is actually AWS ap-southeast-1, which is real Singapore, but pricing is less competitive. Fine option, just not best value here.

Fair, their blend is decent. But check Fiberlink's pricing on a second commit, they were running a promo last quarter that beat DriftNode on Cogent-heavy mixes. Not saying switch, just saying know your alternatives before the renewal.

Hetzner's support is solid but let's be real, their Falkenstein ranges aren't magically clean either. I got a /29 there last year that was already warm. The difference is they'll actually engage with SNDS and...

Used 42U with working casters, NYC pickup

[*]42U or 45U
[*]Casters that actually roll (not the cheap plastic ones)
[*]No...

Ah right, fair enough. No idea then, ive never had to go that route

The others here will know better than me on that one

Genuine question, why not just contabo or one of the boring big ones?

52 boxes here and the dull providers are the ones that never wake me up at 3am. Usually cheaper per GB too

I run 52 boxes across 8 providers and here's my take:

• Delisting forms: works 60% of the time, takes 3 days avg
• New IP from same range: usually still dirty
• New IP from different range: 40% clean in my experience

Contabo.com and ovhcloud.com both gave me ranges that were toas...
