(Quote) We have Alpine and freedos you will be fine!

(Quote) Starting to feel like the forced exclusivity is part of the problem, as by the letter of the law, that means it has to be unique, like what if he posted the same offer on LET 2 days later, its within the rules he can do that, but then he can…

(Quote) Honestly, I don't know what to think now, I started this thinking 15 years later $7 is ridiculous, but if you look at what you get now for $7 on the LE* side of things compared to what you did 15 years ago... I am wondering if the problem al…

(Quote) lets make it $5 :)
-
(Quote) How much did that cost them?
-
(Quote) No doubt it would, but what I am thinking is: Vanilla can't do what we really need, nothing off the shelf can, I don't think, maybe this is a compromise. TBH I started this thinking anything less than $10 is probably silly, that I go to OVH…

I am starting to wonder if just adapting the existing exclusive offers section is actually the best way forward to be honest. Something along the lines of a rules change, and a category rename, Offers > Public Offers (indexed) | LET Exclusive Of…

(Quote) It started off as an i3 4770, moved to i5, then i7 the the E3, something like that anyway, each CPU upgrade was about £7 haha Also started with 16GB, ended up with more so I put it in. Also started with 2x500GB SSD in raid 1 and the eSATA …

(Quote) Doing more with less. If a terminal and a browser runs that's fine for me. My main pc is an E3-1271v3 32gb 6x500gb SSD in raid 10 + 4x1TB HDD raid 10 + 1x esta 4TB and a silent RTX3050 6GB Everything fanless I prefer silent running over p…

Just went to the same host as 15 years ago, configured the 16 core 64gb 4tb raid 10 and it's €573 p/month so only a 600% increase in 15 years.... Bargain.

UK - 2010 1kwh cost on average was 12.7p 15 years later that's 27.7p I wonder if servers got around 125% more power efficient and remained the same relative price. I know 15 years ago I was running a modern at the time 8 thread cpus 4x 1TB hot sw…

(Quote) Or reductions!! :)

(Quote) next tierhive offer will be $7 for 6 years then :D
-
(Quote) Ok, slightly different set of circumstances then, but still interesting point that you made, people just copy pasted what was already on their website, which to some degree is ok, i mean its another outlet to make people aware, we are not al…

(Quote) Interesting, I forgot about that. Did hostballs ever have limits? or was it added after launch/mid life? (Quote) Fair point.
-
(Quote) Valid point, I tend to think the backlash from the community would be self-governing at that point, and just because they work outside the spirit of the rules does not mean their other offers are bad, but still valid.
-
(Quote) I started putting them on my desktop, so I am forced to look at them... or at least that was the plan.
-
(Quote) I must have meant it, I just don't remember it haha.
-
(Quote) I think this pretty much nails it, at the end of the day it's just a database, we could (given time) have multiple front ends. I had fun in rust with a single rule... Avoid JavaScript as much as possible when creating backtogeek.com nothing …

(Quote) I respond to requests there, shake my head a lot, usually regret it, and leave. It's a strange model, but negative engagement is still engagement if numbers are the only driver. To be honest these days it feels like an aggressive Chinese de…

(Quote) I made a speech? I honestly don't remember, please do. I have forgotten about a lot of things sadly.
-
(Quote) That's a pretty cool way to do it.
-
(Quote) yep SMF is like debain... so what if I still run version 5 in prod :D
-
I am old, so I still appreciate the seperation and logical nature of vBulletin and phpBB, that generic old school mid 2000's era forum style, but it seems these days most people want everything new right in front of them without having to do the dan…

(Quote) yep thats me. (Quote) well...... NAT IPv4 + IPv6, but close enough haha LES has had 2 distinct lives, the first was a sub project for NAT IPv4 + IPv6, the initial point was IPv6 only with IPv4 access, the reality was 99% of people just use…
