Set up PeerTube on your own dedi and self-host videos: https://joinpeertube.org/ (Quote) You can host quite a lot even on a KS-1 for 5 EUR/month, considering those tend to get 2TB disks nowadays.

That's not "super cheap", super would be sub-$10, which are indeed a rarity.
-
(Quote) And what if you try MTU 1400, would it start to work?
-
(Quote) Have you seen any 32-bit-only x86 dedicated servers being offered? In the past 15 years?
-
(Quote) If not x86 nor ARM, do you only require RISC-V?
-
What a scam poll.
-
For comparison, you can expect the D1 to be about 25-50% faster than the first Raspberry Pi (2011). It is properly 64-bit, so certain tasks like encryption, multimedia and such will benefit more than that. There is also a vector extension (like AVX)…

What's the math on these? Servers commonly come with 128 or 256 GB of RAM these days. Do you put 500 or 1000 of these plans on 1 server?

(Quote) If you're way too thick to see my emoticon in that message or the words like "contrived" or "awkward" that it included, I can clarify just for you that I was mocking that tendency, not supporting it.
-
(Quote) Can you force the slaves to update all zones "right now"? Or have to wait until they re-fetch zones on their own? Also, comes to mind that it's wrong to say this in the modern world, we need to invent some awkward contrived non-off…

(Quote) It can be, if you run 2-3 nameservers. That's the way to go in any case, at least 2. It is easy enough to get a cheap VPS and set up rsync and ssh to sync your DNS config, either from the main server to a couple more, or from some other cent…
-
Absolutely. Doing that for many years now, never looked back. I can just edit my zone files and push an update, rather than having to log in to some clunky web interface, which will BS and hassle me with their mandatory 2FA, upsell offers, advertisi…

In my experience "rclone mount" works better than sshfs, even for ssh itself. Enabled local caching and can watch 1080p video files from the mount point, with a 80ms ping. Or if you have a low ping (<10ms), CIFS or NFS will work best.
-
Likely a bad idea to do Folding@home stuff on a VPS, you could get terminated for CPU abuse. And it's not a huge amount of CPU anyway, and not comparable to what GPUs can do which excel at those projects. I suggest a relay to let people bypass cens…

I miss good old WoSign, 2-year wildcard certs for free! Or was it multi-domain but not wildcard, I don't remember.
-
(Quote) Yeah, I was surprised to see that. They never reused product codes for a different spec server for a different price before.
-
(Quote) ULAs are not preferred over IPv4 when going outside. If you're willing to go that route (and forgo the incoming connectivity on IPv6), might as well try NAT66 (NAT the entire LAN to the single IPv6 of the router) -- and do that from a made-u…

Go back in time and get this one from a recent flash sale: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/184590/ovh-kimsufi-ks-le-1-available-again/p1 Alternatively, wait for it to be available again. 15 EUR+VAT for 2x800 GB SSD, and people report actually gett…

(Quote) Non-X are also massively cheaper, and you can just uncap or raise the TDP by any amount of your choice in BIOS. The latter is probably not something for a hosting node, but some could say hosting nodes on desktop CPUs is iffy to begin with.

Doesn't anyone watch Linus? X-versions are trash, non-X run literally twice cooler and less power consumption, for 4% less performance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTiRNnSg0jA

(Quote) Hey, now you became more educated than before, surely might use the knowledge elsewhere. Oh and as others suggested, it didn't occur to me that we could offer to help seeding, and I would too, on a ~100Mbit seedbox. But that all goes with t…
-
Make a torrent and upload it to a forum that is popular in your country. If it's nothing highly illegal, you can seed the initial copy from your home connection. And if it's in any demand, afterwards there likely will be a few seeds at all times. I…

(Quote) UDP can get tricky via a proxy: https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/11735 Secondly, if you cannot accept incoming connections (as also the case with proxy), you are likely to lose out on little-seeded torrents, as the few rema…
-
(Quote) Yeah. If not more? But the existing users could still use their 10 TB space for 50 EUR/year until now.
-
(Quote) It might. There's no difference that it's virtualized, as KVM has very little overhead, you're almost like running natively. (Quote) There is no filesystem overhead on the host side, because providers run VMs inside LVM logical volumes, and…
-
(Quote) There are no modern FSes without journaling, only ancient, unreliable and limited ext2 and FAT. If you want to try a filesystem with some special treatment of solid state storage, check out F2FS. But modern SSDs are just fine to be used wit…
-
(Quote) /tmp is best mounted as 'tmpfs' anyway. As for backup, I would very much care for my backups to not become corrupted or lost on a power-cut or hang (which is what journaling protects against), as that's when the primary copy of the data is a…
-
(Quote) It is hard to reply to this without some sort of insult or mental health suspicion directed at anyone who disables journaling in a filesystem to save up on lifespan of SSDs. :) But the first one is very valid, because of the resizing limita…

In any case, if still not recovered, contact support (you see both E-Mails on the screenshot), they are very responsive.

(Quote) It reads like the 2nd sentence wasn't updated. Shouldn't it say "more than six instances" now? And yes it was 2 IPs before.

Depends on what you actually want from it, DokuWiki might also be worth considering. It has a blog plugin too.
