(Quote) My personal view is that to be compelling either the cost needs to be decreased or the resources increased. By comparison Wired Blade (also in Phoenix) are currently offering 4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40GB NVMe, 2TB BW with a 10Gbps uplink for the s…

(Quote) Special offers are appreciated, cool and all that, but I gotta say that this just doesn't seem so "very cheap" to me, not to mention the amount of upsell stuff jammed into the control panel.

Marketing junk. 99% of spam through my mail server comes from non-.com/.net/.org SPF records. Spammers get the cheapest TLD and create legitimate SPF records. I might end up flagging mail from anything that is not a TLD with two or three letters,…

(Quote) According to the home page, it only supports AWS, DO, GC and Azure. Does it support a generic KVM VPS?

(Quote) That would be even more suspect. But my interpretation of their claim is that for every 1 byte in AVIF, JPEG will require 1.4 bytes. And for every 1 AVIF byte, HEVC would require 1.3 bytes. Meaning JPEG would be 1.08x the file size of HEV…
-
(Quote) Take those with a grain of salt. Anything that says JPEG is 1.4 and HEVC is 1.3 (i.e. JPEG is 1.08x HEVC) is very suspect. VVC still image is now ready too.

(Quote) Pay someone

(Quote) I agree with this including suggested features. Plus ability to sort by last post or thread start and RSS feed.
-
(Quote) Personally I don't even know what Fornite is and don't really care, but the way they are approaching it is from a monopoly/competition law/antitrust perspective. Their argument is that Apple have a "dominant market position", in t…

An even more stupid case is Apple saying the Prepear logo is easily confused with its own.
-
(Quote) We use it on 5 nodes with about 10 writes/sec and it is OK for our particular profile. For us the I/O time dominates any cluster latency. We additionally run an async slave.

If you are just testing number of connections, start with ab.

How often I visit is definitely related to the signal to noise ratio, and if I start seeing threads with (e.g.) political titles then I'm out. There should be a way of masking/muting threads. Currently they are sorted by last post and that already…

Maybe remove your IP address?
-
Personally I'd do software. My concern with BIOS is that if your computer dies and you replace it with a newer/current model that has a different controller chip then will it still handle the array OK - probably, but maybe not. For commercial RAID…

(Quote) Set up rclone using rclone config, hit n for new remote, give it a name, then choose the type of backend. Once you've configured the backend, rclone is pretty simple. Not answering your question specifically, but with borg an incremental w…

(Quote) Interesting. Thanks for sharing the datapoint. From memory (it has been a while) my issue was with de-duplication of some quite large files, and it being very slow when doing a synthetic full backup.
-
(Quote) What sort of servers (i.e. RAM, disk)? I found Veeam to be heavy on the resources, but could be I have lower-end stuff.
-
(Quote) Borg is good. Very happy with it. Quite fast for large numbers of small files. For VMs, for a few years I've been using a rsync script, and then creating a hardlinked copy each day. This means linux takes care of all the incremental stuf…
-
(Quote) f2b chains don't exist, so clearly nothing is going to be blocked.
-
(Quote) We already have the POPs, they are not included in the calculation on either side of the ledger. However, it doesn't change the end result. We'll forget Anycast and go with GeoDNS. If another special Anycast offer comes along then we'll c…
-
What type of virtualization? Show iptables-save with your IPs redacted - possible that there's an ACCEPT before the f2b chain?
-
(Quote) All of that makes perfect sense. I'm doing the same type of cost-benefit on a much more lowend scale. For reference, this was my starting point: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/8981. To step through my thought process, if…

(Quote) Use fail2ban-regex to see what is being matched in the logs rather than blindly guessing.
-
(Quote) I'm sure that's great for a lot of people! Unfortunately, lack of Australia kills it for me, and $30/month is way over my budget. But for someone who needs mitigation it would be good.
-
(Quote) The list of countries allowed to sign up does not include US, Canada, or any in Europe, which must severely limit their customer base, although of course people can put in fake info. Maybe for some people it works - India, Russia, etc. Bes…
-
(Quote) Yeah, that is what I was starting to figure. Quite off-putting for me, to be honest. Not sure what I'm even allowed to send on that network due to export restrictions. But everyone can form their own opinion on that subject. (Quote) Thei…

(Quote) Got the following, which is strange for a company with contact info in Germany: (Quote) Language on signup page defaults to Farsi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arvan. What the heck.
-
(Quote) Looks interesting. Worth giving it a try. They say they "currently offer" free DNS and the page looks like it is written with the expectation this might change in the future, so I don't count on it lasting forever. But a good on…

(Quote) I re-checked AWS billing and seems good. By pushing the Hetrix updates to CloudFront metrics, the Route 53 health checks are considered 'AWS endpoints' and thus free of charge. Amazon Route 53 Health-Check-AWS$0.00First 50 Health Checks of…
-
(Quote) Run multiple HAProxy. If you have the budget then use anycast and remove failed nodes. Otherwise return multiple IPs in DNS and update DNS using health checks. To answer the original question, also take a look at https://www.gslb.me/ whic…

(Quote) I'm looking for a phone company that provides free ice cream, and an electricity company that will give free shoes.
-
(Quote) Today I integrated Hetrix with Route 53. It wasn't too bad, and looks like I've managed to do it on the AWS "free forever" tier (not the "free 12 month trial"). But maybe I should give it a day for billing info to updat…

I run one in a DB cluster for less than a month. Limited experience to draw on, but so far no downtime, performance good.
