    Don't know if AI are now smart enough to answer the carwash question correctly, but we see emdashes in some of the responses.

    Real people will still use it for translation and that is fine I think...

    Real people also use emdashes, and have done for decades. Where do you think the AIs got trained into using them from?

    How do you type an emdash? I don't have it on my keyboard and wouldn't know how to type it. So seeing an emdash to me means that there was at least some additional post-processing of what was typed.

    In a text box, no idea. In a word processor, generally set to autocorrect to it. Plenty of people like to compose in their familiar editor and paste the result into a web form.

    My point is, using emdash as an AI gotcha is both tiresome and inaccurate IMHO.

    Idk. It's pretty accurate if you ask me... Or Claude who also agrees.

    But it's not that important just an indicator not a guarantee

    Hi, my name is Ali Yasin, im a web developer and system administrator. Im working of my business GREENLEAFWEB LTD, web hosting and software development company based in the UK. I want to join LowEndSpirit to connect with fellow hosting enthusiasts, share my knowledge about server management (cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, Nginx, OpenLiteSpeed...), and explore new networking opportunities within the global webmaster community.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I discovered Lowendspirit while researching global hosting communities.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    The sun gets extremely hot in my city. 100 meters isnt far, but why would i walk in the heat when i can just drive? and i have to drive the car there anyway to actually get it washed.

    I represent 1Gbits, a hosting provider offering bare metal and dedicated servers, VPS hosting, GPU servers, and remote desktop services. I would like to join LowEndSpirit to follow hosting discussions, learn from members, and share relevant information when appropriate.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I learned about LowEndSpirit as a community for people interested in hosting and server infrastructure. I am especially interested in dedicated servers, VPS hosting, performance, and technical discussions with other members.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    I would drive the car the 100 meters to the car wash, because the car needs to be there to be washed. I could enjoy the sunshine while waiting.

    Hi everyone. I deal with servers and networking a lot at work, but when it comes to VPSs, I'm pretty much just a basic user. I don't really know how they work under the hood, so I run into problems pretty often. When I have an issue, I usually just search on YouTube or Google, but there's so much information out there it's hard to figure out what's actually useful. I saw a YouTuber recommend LowEndSpirit, saying there are a lot of detailed reviews and specs here, so I came to check it out. I'm here to read some honest reviews, learn how to pick a good budget VPS, and maybe mess around with some personal projects. Hope I can ask you guys for help when I get stuck. Just a heads-up, English is not my first language, so I used AI to help me write this.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I was searching on YouTube for VPS troubleshooting when I saw someone recommend this place, so I came to check it out. I like tinkering with small projects after work, and hope to learn some stuff here.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    I'd drive. Because my car needs a wash eventually anyway

    I wash my car in my driveway, but I could walk 100 meters to a car wash just 'cause.

    Hi! I run a handful of tiny VPSes for personal projects (monitoring, a small VPN, a couple of Telegram bots) and I'd like to join to follow provider threads, offers and technical discussions, and share my own experience/benchmarks with small providers.

    Hello, my name is Ken and I'm a software developer specializing in automations for my personal projects and business. I've been recently testing out a few different VPS providers for my latest projects, which led me to lowendspirit. I hope to see what others are doing with automations and data processing.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I found this forum through lowendbox and some other reddit thread. In my free time I like to travel and try new cuisines that I normally wouldn't find in my home country.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    I would drive, can't wash the car at the car wash without the car.

  • Hey guys, my name is Ken. I am a software developer working on a few automation projects. Some personal and some business. I love a good deal just as a much as the next person, hence what brought me here. Right now I'm running most of my automations on my mac mini m4 (amazing purchase for only $400), and its been allowing me to host various things with docker including a file share. I want to move some of these things to the cloud but hate the ridiculous pricing of some of these cloud providers.

    I would drive because I want to avoid the sun. My car is dirty, and I don't want to sit in a dirty car, so I would drive it to the car wash and clean it.

    Being a full-time I.T. professional, working extensively as a Network and System Administrator. I have been an active member of the LowEndTalk community for some time and have found the discussions there incredibly valuable. I am looking to see LowEndSpirit to expand my involvement, I enjoy troubleshooting complex infrastructure issues and staying up to date with the latest developments in virtualization and low-end hardware.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I discovered LowEndSpirit through my regular participation on LowEndTalk; I often see cross-references to this community and wanted to see the specific discussions and resources hosted here. Outside of my professional life, I spend much of my free time tinkering with home lab setups, learning about new networking protocols. Along with low-end gaming.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    I have to bring my car to wash despite the fact that the car wash is only 100 meters away. Walking to the car wash without my would be pointless.

    VPS hobbyist, use them a lot for personal and work-related stuff. Dislike the overpriced and vendor-locked cloud solutions. Like the cheap low-end VPS and making them work, feels like a kind of sport, given the limited resources

    Is this some kind of captcha? Yeah, it's only a 100 meters, so I put my car on neutral, open the drivers seat window and just walk pushing the car forward. Not only I get sun on my skin but also some exercise. Did I pass? :D

    Hi everyone! I'm a Linux enthusiast and self-hoster who loves tinkering with low-resource VPS, NAT boxes, and containerized services. I currently run some services on a VPS, but as my projects have increased, the VPS resources are getting tight. I need to switch to a slightly better VPS that still offers good value for money. I'd like to join LowEndSpirit to learn system optimization tricks, follow community discussions on budget hosting, and share my hands-on experiences with fellow hobbyists.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I discovered LowEndSpirit through discussions on LowEndTalk and Reddit when looking for lightweight NAT VPS setups. In my spare time, I enjoy configuring Arch Linux, setting up Caddy reverse proxies, writing shell scripts, and exploring efficient server management.

    Drive, because I need to wash the car. If I walk there, the car would still be left at home.

    Hello, I’m a long-time Linux and VPS user. I mainly work with Debian, Nginx, AI, API, and other server-related tools, and I’m interested in VPS performance, network quality, routing, and different hosting providers.

    I would like to join LowEndSpirit because it has a great community of people who share real-world experience with VPS and hosting services. I’d like to learn from other members, compare different providers and server performance, and also share some of my own experience when I can.

    I hope to become a useful member of the community, follow the forum rules, and participate in meaningful discussions. Thank you!

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I would drive to the car wash because I need to wash my car, and the car needs to be there. Since it’s only 100 meters away, I can enjoy the sunny weather while driving there.

    I am from Asia, here we wash our cars by taking a bucket of water and a cloth, no car washes. So I would neither walk or drive. I would just wash it in morning so I get the sun I crave for.

    I discovered it looking for affordable 1 usd a month VPS plans but failing to find reputable options, along with tierhive mentions on the internet, I am already self-hosting (with very little expertise) a few docker services like Nextcloud etc on my raspberry pi, unfortunately my ISP's charges for public IP is far too high so I want to experiment with affordable VPSes and security online.

    I want to pursue sovereignty for privacy reasons as well, along with it providing relevant experience for my career ambitions in the future.

    I have to drive there. After all, it’s the car that needs washing. If I walk over, there won’t be a vehicle to clean. No matter how short the distance is, I still need to drive the car to the car wash.

    I would like to join LowEndSpirit to learn from the community, share my experiences, and discover useful hosting and server-related projects.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I discovered LowEndSpirit while looking for communities and resources related to low-cost VPS hosting and Linux servers.
    Nothing extra to add.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    I would walk. It's only 100 meters away, and since it's a sunny day and I haven't been out in the sun for a long time, it makes more sense to enjoy the short walk. I can drive the car there afterward if necessary, but walking first would be the better choice.

    I am relatively new to the VPS world but highly motivated to learn. Currently, I am running a small personal blog and a private cloud storage on a 512MB RAM server. I want to join this forum to learn from experienced members about how to secure and maintain low-end servers properly without wasting resources.

    How did you discover lowendspirit and do you have any extra information you would like to add e.g. interests, hobbies etc.

    I stumbled upon LowEndSpirit through a recommendation in a tech community on Telegram. My other interests include photography, listening to vinyl records, and learning shell scripting to automate my daily backups.

    You need to wash your car, It is a sunny day, you only live 100 meters away from the car wash, it has been a long time since you felt the sun on your skin, do you walk or drive to the car wash and why?

    I will drive. It is a trick question because if I walk, the dirty car stays at home and never gets clean. Driving the car is the only way to utilize the car wash, despite the very short distance.

    Drive to the car wash as it would be very difficult to wash your car if you walk there, unless their hoses are 100 meters +

    Hi! Nice to meet you! Welcome to LES! I wondered because the name of your open source project was not mentioned. I did a quick Google search and found https://modrinth.com/plugin/azrovas-economy, but both the two Github links at the bottom of that page 404 for me. Is it another open source project that you have? Did I miss something?

    Thanks! Best wishes!
