(Quote) Is this in LOL territory? Everyone is doing that now.

Where is the US server?
-
Maybe a wiki? I use gitit, which has an apt package, so very simple installation. It uses git as backend so you can git push after things look good.
-
Thanks, makes sense. Is the price I mentioned realistic at all? I'd want say 2x 4tb drives, reasonable cpu (currently using quad core i7-3770, anything not too far off from that is fine), don't need huge ram or bandwidth. I do cringe a little bit…

I'd want a midrange dedicated server with fair amount of hdd space. Huge bandwidth not needed. Is 2x Hetzner auction price of equivalent hardware still dreaming, if dedis are available at all?

How much is renewal?
-
Fairness doesn't really come into this, and in the technology sector we expect costs of stuff to decrease rather than increase as technology advances. If you're thinking of cPanel, the answer is that it's a squeeze play and you should just stay awa…

I just got a .faith domain. Bwahahaha.

(Quote) You could check https://tld-list.com/ -- it says cheapest is $4.67 registration and 6.99 renewal at Regery, which I haven't heard of.

If you're using shared cpu instances then even with no throttling, performance will fluctuate because of other users also computing. Some people's EC2 orchestration involves automatically running a benchmark when they spin up a new server, and if i…

The 16 core shared is Epyc only. The Epyc cores are fast, but the VM's are slow because of the number of simultaneous users hosing the cpu. I.e. noisy neighbors.
-
I use shared hosting for a personal site, having figured that it would be more reliable than a VPS since someone else would be looking after monitoring, restarts, backups etc. But in fact it's down awfully frequently. I'm thinking about what to do…

Hah, I saw something about decreasing hourly rates (sounds good) but didn't figure out that they are increasing monthly rates. I should have guessed. If they do spot pricing of hourly bare metal, that will be quite interesting. I tried a Hetzner …

(Quote) What was it before?

(Quote) Yeah that's sort of an info leak. If I used their product I'd want them to patch that.

I used the 1 click installer on Vultr which has a bunch of different locations. It works fine though it costs a bit more than many LES providers. I'm using a $5/m 1GB instance. Since it's temporary I didn't bother doing a self-install on a cheape…
-
Fran if you don't mind my asking, how is cpu utilization looking on the slice nodes now, compared to back with the e3's? I'm on a 1gb slice and am pretty sure the host node got cpu starved a few times before the changeover. It's been nice since th…
-
How are you using the anycast? I'd hoped to hear more about that in the review. The Ryzen cpu isn't spectacularly fast per core, but having so many cores helps smooth out cpu availability fluctuations from noisy neighbors, compared to the old E3's…
-
$300/m for 3kw in a data center actually seems pretty good. It's 13.7 cents per kwh if you leave nothing left over for hosting. It would be hard to find that in the US. I have to wonder what anyone is going to do with such a machine. The 3090 wi…

I guess everyone will go risc-v now :).

For a while I had a bot that monitored Hetzner auction prices (I hope that was allowed). I guess I could revive it if people wanted it.

(Quote) AX = AMD processors, SX = storage, PX = professional series (ECC memory etc), EX = economy. I don't know if those are official abbreviations. It's just what I observe.
-
I don't understand how this can work. scsi devices expect to have a single host. won't multiple ones clobber each other? I think you want nfs or similar, if you really want the vm's to see a shared file system. If you want them to each see their…

I've used ActiveAdmin (a rails gem for doing easy admin screens) and I found it productive to use, though it doesn't give you much style control. You might start out with something free form (maybe even the nextcloud version of google docs) and see…

How many cases will be active at a time? A very simple approach might be to just use wiki software. Then each case page is basically free text, you can freely link between cases, you can have pages for non-cases such as help organizations, etc. O…
