(Quote) Don't think - there's no time. It's going to change... be ready... there's no time...
-
You know @VirMach we're suckers for these kinds of VMs. It would have been great if we had access to a "special" bundle - a $5 VM in every (or most or pick n) locations and we all would have jumped it like the good old days of crazy sales.…
-
We should get a "mystery" VM - specs known, location unknown. Even better if we get a world tour - every 1st of the month, when you reset the bandwidth, nuke the old vm and reprovision it in a new location (different from the previous 3) w…

(Quote) I thought I could then I realized I've become old AND I'm running on very low sleep. Bad recipes for any thing other than zombie like acquisition of idlers one certainly does not need.

Where is that wonderful woman just when we need her?
-
Yawl got dem copouns? I just want bragging rights to a big VM...
-
(Quote) Yeah... once upon a time there was a mad frenzy to get them. How times have changed. The bandwidth also was 8888 IIRC. Old memories...
-
(Quote) See I told you.
-
(Quote) So you think...
-
(Quote) Be sure to leave a clue when appropriate.

(Quote) Brain wave - is what was posted the actual coupon code? He must be fooling and toying with us.
-
(Quote) If it's going to be easy for anyone, it is for you - you can just keep running a hash on whatever set of coupons/text you have and see if something matches the hash. For the rest of us, we're still try to crack that wall of text...
-
(Quote) Ha ha. Nice try.
-
(Quote) Reminded me of (I think) Vapor Node from the old days on the OGF. They used to have special Pi day challenges and puzzles that would give you a discount on their VMs. Really interesting puzzles. I think they got bought over or sold the busi…
-
@VirMach that was a class act by @Wonder_Woman and I think you should release a code in hono(u)r of the achievement exclusively for him/her. Of course for the rest of us clapping here, it'll be nice to have something - we are happy to clap more for…
-
(Quote) Of course. It's more interesting that using it (of course if you give us a 95%, we have to in principle use it because.... 95%!)
-
(Quote) Quite common (not the actual reboots per se but that this "unclean" shutdown happens). Many times it's also because I don't always run the qemu guest agent within my VM (but it is ACPI enabled, so that should work). I of course don…

(Quote) The virbot has become sentient - it has a similar personality to it's creator-parent.

(Quote) This. I seriously would have added multiple VMs across locations if only they had IPv6. I now have one AMS VM WITH IPv6 and it is a great VM. No other location has IPv6 (so far) and I hope over the course of the next 2-3 months things chang…

(Quote) Haven't set it up yet (busy with the BF frenzy). Will tag you once I get it setup (hopefully by EoD today).
-
(Quote) Not even a chance! Sigh.
-
(Quote) Thank you very much - DM'd.
-
(Quote) Could you also add an extra vCore to take advantage of the 10G link?
-
(Quote) Answer is NO (from thread on OGF). No migrations allowed unfortunately. CC: @vyas
-
@VirMach - speaking of transfers/migrations, is this something that is possible at all (I'd prefer to migrate rather than cancel if there is such an option, including paying a reasonable transfer fee). My big concern is that support hasn't been very…
-
(Quote) Yes (specifically via ssh) - the context of my replies was related to OpenSSH (or so I thought).
-
(Quote) Agreed - for whatever reason the template is broken. Beware that by default Debian doesn't allow password based root login - so just installing OpenSSH will not allow you to login as root (I'm not sure if there's another user that is alread…

(Quote) Oh. I didn't think this through from your perspective (esp. varying stock levels vs popularity). Fair enough. (Quote) I'd like to think so, but I have also ended up pruning my "collection" to a bare minimum because I lost track of…
-
(Quote) Oh I didn't realize that I was that far out... Anyway I hope there's redemption yet again is an option. I guess, I have let my guard down thinking it's too early but... en-guarde!
-
(Quote) It'll be nice to have 3 different locations to pick from (along with the different specs/prices of course). Also, for the crazy people here (myself included), since you've risen from the ashes (yet again?), can you: a) Reward those of us w…

(Quote) I still remember (I hope it's true and not some figment of my imagination) one hidden in a grammatical symbol and it was remarkably creative at that point. I don't even remember what the sale was for but I think it was definitely @VirMach. …
-
Snagged one even though I don't need it, just because... it's reminding me of the old days with the frenzy of the Flash sales. I'm feeling a little more alive now. @FAT32 - I think we need a few Easter egg challenges from @VirMach to raise the adr…
-
One more caveat - promo VPSs can't be transferred immediately after purchase (I think this is to prevent scalpers). They have to be at least 1 month old before they can be transferred out. Please check with Greencloud support before proceeding with …

(Quote) In general, if it is a distro shipped/supplied kernel, mitigations are (by default) applied and enabled at boot. You have to explicitly disable them via boot time kernel arguments/parameters - so you should be safe. Also, cat /proc/cpuinfo …
-
There are mostly good enough mitigations at the kernel level to leave SMT enabled. There will be a performance drop if SMT is disabled (the actual drop will vary but it is fair to expect 15-40% drop depending on the work load characteristics). If t…

Thanks for the great location addition and the resulting excellent global coverage.
