(Quote) Have tried OpenOffice (back when that was the main goto) and more recently LibreOffice. Happy to take suggestions for a more up to date alternative to try!
-
Honestly, I'm still using MS Office (365, copilot, whatever tf branding it has these days). I really, really want to switch, but every time I've tried in the past, it literally only takes a few documents for the formatting not to properly openable f…

I happily use Host-C, Koofr, and Backblaze for different long-term storage things and all have worked well!

That's fair re:SMF. I actually have a forum still running SMF 2.1.4 myself, and apparently need to update to 2.1.6! Though it's no longer open, only archived, which reduces a lot of the attack surface.

Welcome back! Any $7/year dealz?

Uhh, like 8 or 9 of mine are wireguard nodes around the world. Another is used for a 3rd backup location (weekly encrypted offsite backups of important files). One hosts a small image sharing service that me and my friends use, which deletes all pos…

(Quote) You have to admit, that would get you to sign up for Copilot!

(Quote) I ended up submitting the order with a domain that I own but don't use anywhere (I'm sure we all have plenty of those...right? lol). Good to know you can keep using it in multiple places, that helps a lot. Especially with hosts where you hav…

(Quote) I figured it was some sort of pre-approved list, yeah. Hopefully the host I wanted to use will fix it, ticket has been submitted!

(Image) So glad I didn't end up getting anything from them.

Actually, went back and found it: https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/134158/#Comment_134158

I forget exactly where, but somewhere on LES there is a 50% off for Migadu! I think it's a code you send in with a support ticket or something like that, I don't remember and it's been over a year since I did it, but I don't think it was time-limite…

(Quote) I've found that my Germany VPS is still on the old Xeon, but Ashburn (the one I upgraded) and LA (the new one) are both Epyc. I did ask them once, a few months ago, about upgrading the Germany one, but at the time they said there wasn't any …
-
(Quote) On the upgraded one (which I took to 1TB storage!) I'm running a Nextcloud instance and some PDF tools (Stirling, Paperless). Basically a remote document manager.

Happy New Year fellow lowenders!

(Quote) Hey, at least I can confirm something -- if you go to upgrade a service that you originally purchased with a coupon, it still applies the coupon. Perhaps there's some time limit on this, but I upgraded a service purchased a few months ago. …
-
Now, this is a story, all about how, I ended up with yet another lifetime ZAP server...
-
Filen, out of all the lifetime storage services I have (only 100GB from Filen myself), they have been the most...I dunno how to put it, not bug-riddled so much but just generally unstable and inconsistent, with a good dose of "coming soon (tm).…
-
(Quote) Ah, that would make sense, thank you! Surprised there isn't a direct link to that within the billing panel, most providers seem to have that, or an integrated panel that kinda shows both or something.
-
I've realized today that their control panel has no reinstall options whatsoever. Kinda starting to wish I hadn't renewed a few days ago for another year, despite such a cheap price. Seems there is an option, it's just not linked from the billing p…

These storage servers are such a good deal. YABS of mine below (which is Gen2 I suppose): # ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## Yet-Another-Bench-Script ## v2025-04-20 …
-
Why not, in for one of the $19 Intel Special 32GBs...my first dedicated server!
-
(Quote) Sweet, this is one of the VPS I actually use instead of just idling (unless a backup target counts as idling?). And yeah by indefinitely I just meant "for the planned, foreseeable future" really, lol.
-
Really appreciate the update! I have a quick clarification question about the 5TB storage plans -- if my plan is labeled now as "Pioneer XNova - Storage 5TB - I185 - G2" does that mean I'm on Gen 2, and should be good to go to keep using i…

(Quote) Order # 7090810371 ! I was already happy with the 2/2/2/2 special before, but this one is even better! I was really wanting a Canada VPS node this BF, super glad I found yours! (and I've realized the resources were doubled automatically, d…

(Quote) As someone with a service through them still, but did not hear about this, any tl;dr?

Man, I'm really glad I got my hostsailor deal last year, lol. Definitely works great for the price!
