(Quote) In SG, the ISP dont mind if you max out their connections. They only mind if you download torrents. Webhosting is in fact encouraged, and they charge only S$ 2.50 for fixed IP on top of the S$ 60 for 2x 1Gbps internet. (Quote) There are str…

(Quote) Dunno about US but you can get a Xeon E5 2683 v4 + 64 GB DDR4 ECC Ram + Motherboard at 300 USD from china. Get a basic GFx card for 50 USD, 2x 1 TB nvme SSD at 100 USD, power supply at 50 USD, workstation case at 70 USD, total comes up to 5…

Since you are already planning to installing a GUI environment, why not just install noVnc? It's browser based VNC client and runs completely from your server. However as others have mentioned, VNC performance is laggy. In my experience, a proper VN…

(Quote) I'm based in Singapore. I had been working here as a full stack developer for almost 10 years now. I have a few personal servers that I manage on my free time as a hobby. Two of them are running proxmox to host my VMs. Now with falling pric…

(Quote) That's... something... I see you are collecting the achievements by the users on your server. Do keep it up.

Hi @Not_Oles Just to check, you are providing ssh access to your server for people to play/learn linux terminal? What's stopping a user with sudo access to install a control panel like "proxmox" or some other VM management control panel? …

(Quote) Right.... (Quote) Good point....

(Quote) Maybe they only rent the vm host AFTER getting the money?

(Quote) Huh? Why would banning adult content extend to K-Pop? What kind of K-Pop gifs are you looking at!!!

(Quote) Agree with you there. But the thing is most aged providers do not offer lifetime deals and many startup companies provide them as a way to promote their business. Issue being many of these startups either cannot keep up with the demands and …

(Quote) Lucky you! The only lifetime deal I am still holding is from "cheathappens", which i got in 2007. The rest (vpn, hosting, vps, filehost) all went out of business in just 1 year or less...

Lifetime deals rarely last for more then 1 year. Hope they'll stay around for longer.

(Quote) That's the way to go! Put those idlers to use :p

(Quote) +1 But paid also creates abuse, unless you get them to pay some sum in advance, like a deposit fee.

(Quote) Since you people got so many idlers, just setup your own image host. Scripts are available on github.

2 cores + 512 MB RAM + large HDD/SSD + good internet speed is all you need. 1 core is also enough, but 2 is better. Download speed does not really change if you have 2 or more cores so dont worry about that, but it will limit the number of active t…

Wait, you are actually talking about linux ISOs? I thought you were talking about "linux ISOs". I hear you say: "Whats the difference?" You use linux ISOs to install linux OS on your computer. You normally download it over http…

(Quote) I use sqlite3 for my personal url shortener. Works just fine. I used to use mysql for my previous url shortener, but now a days I like the low memory overhead of sqlite3 more then resource heavy mysql (mariadb). Who would be crazy enough t…

(Quote) I didn't even play Red Alert series... Well, time to get it I guess!

(Quote) Given my domain blocklist for shorturl service, it is not very likely. Moreover, my phone browser is protected with uBlock Origin and the phone itself is connected to a always on DNS blocking VPN. But, shit happens. All I can do is wipe the …
