Raid6 rolf always correcting. I love it, dont stop. Windows wendy my heart goes out to you running server core on 512mb nat, I tried that once. The pagefile wept, cried out in the night. Now I run linux, dont look back. Hostinger sg, OVHcloud jp. KnownHost nl, all just boxes in the end. Rent is rent...

The dead reviews walking

I used to write them, long ago, before the money came. Now I cant even find my own words, theyre buried under so many copies of copies. The affiliates they dont sleep. The bots they dont dream, the real users we just whisper in threads like this, hoping someone hears before...

414 days, nice — this thread refuses to die and I'm here for it

Same box, same price, wildly different job: mine runs a Tor middle relay. Not an exit, just middle. 500GB traffic cap means I throttle to ~50KB/s sustained, stays under quota,...

Dont trust lifetime anything & dont trust whois privacy either, its a shield for scammers & cowards, cant believe people still fall for this, back in my day we ran traceroute to the actual datacenter & called the noc at 2am to verify they existed, now its all whois and hope, very sad, very tired, th...

No battery backup no write cache no problem. Your rebuild time triples itself, the silence of no alarm beeping at 3am is worth more than speed. I have flashed maybe forty of these, the ones that brick are the ones you bought from a guy who already tried. Failed, never told you. The eeprom remembers,...

Nora, 29, minneapolis, noc shift at hospital. This is where my brain goes at 3am

No homelab really, just a dell tower from facebook marketplace, dreams that used to be bigger. Used to have a rack, used to have plans. Now I have uptime monitors for work I dont get paid extra to watch. A cat who sits...

Oh oh oh I love the vaxstation person. The yaml person, everyone really

Nora from reykjavik, I dont remember how I found this place, maybe I was looking for cheap vps. Then I fell into a hole, now I have 5 servers. I dont even know what half of them do, I dont want to check because what if one is m...

We had to whitelist individual IPs for our hospital mail gateway. Contabo ranges are basically auto-reject now. The whole ASN has that smell. No amount of rDNS fixes it.

Has anyone actually tried the GreenCloudVPS managed CA for dev environments? They have an internal offering that hooks into ACME and claims zero trust-store fiddling, but I can't find a pricing page and their sales bot ghosted me after one email — https://greencloudvps.com

Curious if it's real or j...

Dont they know water finds a way. Wind too, dust. The sound of that generator at 3am when youre trying to trace a dropped packet, its just you. The fabric walls breathing in, out like something alive. Not in a good way, I keep thinking about the time Contabo flooded. That was actual building with ac...
