Whenever I've run the numbers, even on the deals, it's always better to just rent a VPS. Can also get a well priced rental like https://rpiservers.com

(Quote) They gave out free credit to test their panel in 2017, that's apparently when I signed up as well.

Looks like it's all being eaten by Slab? Which iirc is kernel-related cache. Try slabtop and maybe that can give you some hints, or you can share the output here for someone much smarter than myself to help with. lol

(Quote) Yeah, that will probably be a huge pain in the ass. Could probably create custom templates that auto partition and mount it, but that's a lot of extra work. I personally really like split storage setups but I know how to install from ISO an…

Thanks for the share @Ympker - didn't need it myself, but my buddy in Mexico was looking for a cheap way to watch US Netflix on his TV boxes and this seems to fit the bill. Working well so far apparently. The lifetime deals always sketch me out a b…

(Quote) I agree on synthetic benchmarks, and I apologize for derailing the thread here. I saw someone else mentioning the same issues I was seeing the other day, but as you addressed above those were already resolved. I'm seeing 16-20MB/s sorta thin…

(Quote) Well it does matter for transfers of large files (ie backups) - don't need a 300MB/s seq write but line speed-ish would be nice. It seems a bit better right now (~16MB/s), but I would suggest using a file bigger than the available ram for th…

(Quote) What about backups that you want to run faster than 5-10Mbps? lol.

OVH US also has Ryzen dedis in stock, plus Intel options. https://us.ovhcloud.com/dedicated-servers/game/game-1/

Completely agree with @lebuser I don't think there's anything wrong with treating v6 just how you treat v4, in terms of running off a single v6 address. I only really care about v6 access/usage, not too concerned on the implementation specifics - j…

Both of the results you posted are most definitely hitting a ram cache. NVMe is a bit of a safer bet that you will have the iops available even after the node is loaded up. A well managed box with SSD storage at a good provider can work as well/bet…

(Quote) The reason I prefer Debian in a server environment is precisely because it lacks the extras. I'm sure I could rip a lot of stuff out of Ubuntu to streamline it, but that's more work than starting off with something lighter. Bare minimum I've…

Pop!_OS 20.04 working quite well on the ThinkPad I don't really 'get' Ubuntu as a server OS though, it's like 2x the footprint of a base Debian install. I guess the 5 yr LTS is nice, but Debian seems to be going in that direction anyways with their…

(Quote) Wireguard does that all on the client side under AllowedIPs in the config. I haven't looked at Nyr's script yet, but I assume his default would be to push all traffic over it 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0 (v4 & v6). You'd just take those out and speci…

Netlify is another free option that will take care of hosting + CDN for static sites. https://www.netlify.com/ Cloudfront works well too if you've got a low traffic site, that's about $0.09/GB though iirc.

iTerm2 > everything else

@Daniel might be interesting to you: https://blog.cloudflare.com/boringtun-userspace-wireguard-rust/ Cloudflare built their own WireGuard userspace implementation in Rust called BoringTun. Little bit of drama with them building their own instead o…

Holding out for 31.4GB of storage :wink: Nice deal though. You got a test file/looking glass?

MXRoute has been reliable for me, MailCheap was fine when I had a plan there. I don't think anyone can beat Jar on price for the quality of service offered though. I don't think I've ever needed to submit a ticket in 4 years or however long its been…

Alright, time to bet on ARM CPUs for cloud computing.

This was also appealing to me, until I had to think about cost, noise, heat, etc. Running the numbers I decided to colo a couple servers for 'production' tasks, along with a handful of VMs/cheap dedis at various providers, and then I have my old PC …

I wouldn't go out of my way to pay more for an Epyc VM, I would just avoid hosts/find someone else at the same price point that offers AMD. It's a slight edge for marketing but that's about it. Maybe when you get into enterprise more people will ca…

(Quote) Canned tomatoes/sauce (I'm hoping)? With really bad color representation from the camera?

Have a feeling I'm too late, lol. Thanks again, as always :) 981d95ba41a87f2101f66962d1589b55
