Any plans to have similar services in the USA? I like the Black Friday pricing but I'd prefer something in the USA.
-
Cloudcone just posted some deals: https://hello.cloudcone.com/2021-black-friday-mega-sale-vps/ Starting at $8.79/year for 1GB RAM, 35GB disk (RAID10, SSD cached), 4TB monthly transfer, all the way to $79.40/year for 8GB RAM, 280GB disk, 8TB monthly …

(Quote) The issue with self-hosted is that I need to monitor all my VPSes, including the one that's hosting the monitoring app... Otherwise how would I determine that the monitoring system itself is down? Haha I used to use UptimeRobot's and Hetrix…
-
(Quote) I've been using Better Uptime for a while (since their last lifetime offer) and their service is really good. I'd recommend it! They've added newer features like DNS and SMTP monitoring, and they have "heartbeat" monitoring for cro…

(Quote) iptables is legacy :tongue: we should migrate to nftables eventually! iptables will eventually be deleted, like ipchains before it.

I've got a 2TB Samsung 980 Pro in my PC and it's very fast, but the Samsung Evos are good too. (Quote) A lot of newer motherboards come with a heatsink. I've got an "ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming" and it came with a heatsink for both m.2 s…

@chimichurri The Wishosting deal is back ($11.99/month for 4 Ryzen 5950x cores, 8 GB RAM, 500 GB NVMe): https://www.wishosting.com/order/main/packages/VPS/?group_id=7 Edit: Never mind, already out of stock :cry:
-
(Quote) Wow, I didn't know that! Thanks for the info.
-
(Quote) They do have the "normal" version (2 cores, 8GB RAM, 200GB NVMe for $10/month) if that interests you. It's in their main VPS offers: https://www.wishosting.com/order/main/packages/VPS/?group_id=2. The sale one has +2 cores and +300…

(Quote) Interesting site! It's similar to what I'm doing with https://dnstools.ws/ but with more probes.
-
(Quote) I posted about the installer not booting on the other forum, and someone mentioned an incompatibility with Ryzen and Linux 5.10. https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/174556/segfaults-when-booting-debian-11-installer I had to install and boot i…

(Quote) If I want to move my VPS from Romania to Norway, can you match the price I was paying? It's an NVMe VPS.
-
and swap shouldn't actually be that slow on NVMe drives. (Quote) A week or so ago, Wishosting had a sale VPS with the opposite issue: 32GB RAM but only 100GB HDD (SSD-cached) storage. I nearly ordered that one since it was in Los Angeles which work…
-
(Quote) Yeah it was tempting me for a day or two, so I thought I'd try it out. 500 GB NVMe is really good for the price! I wish it had more RAM though. The 'regular' (non "Deal of the day": "KVM SSD NVMe") one is $10/month for 2…

(Quote) Sure. Here's the specs again for reference (from the YABS thread): (Quote) Region: Asia https://bench.monster v.1.5.7 2021-10-06 Usage : curl -LsO bench.monster/speedtest.sh; bash speedtest.sh -Asia---------------------------------------…

(Quote) GB5 score increased after upgrading from Debian 10 (4.19 kernel) to Debian 11 with backported 5.14 kernel (the standard 5.10 kernel it comes with was causing kernel panics on boot). Apparently Linux 5.11 had some performance improvements for…
-
(Quote) Yeah... The ideal design is for the website itself to be built on top of the same API, which automatically means that all features on the site are also accessible through the API. Some of these older forum systems have coupled the business l…

(Quote) why do you just have 64MB of swap? lol

Wishosting $11.99/month sale. Located in France (OVH) but feels very fast and responsive even when connecting from the USA thanks to the fast processor and disk. (Quote) # ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## Yet-Anoth…

(Quote) How does one get an access token though? Plus I don't really want to spend time using the API to build an RSS feed if it already has an RSS feed built in 😛
-
(Quote) Yeah looks like 8 to me. _spf.google.com has include:_netblocks.google.com include:_netblocks2.google.com include:_netblocks3.google.com which adds 3 queries (all of which are just IPs), and mxroute.com has include:_s00002163.autospf.email w…

(Quote) Is your SPF record set to softfail (~all at the end) or hardfail (-all at the end)? It should be set to hardfail once you're sure that it's accurate, in which case any email that fails the SPF check should be marked as spam by recipient serv…
-
An approach I could take here is to write a script that: * Does a GET to /entry/signin to get the CSRF token to log in (although I don't see one there... I know Vanilla is kinda basic when it comes to security, but please tell me it at least has a …

(Quote) This is still going to get you suspended with a free account... File extensions don't actually mean anything on the internet; content type is entirely determined by the MIME headers. Even if you set the Content-Type: text/css for your video …
-
(Quote) Combining all offers into a single file would make for a very useful RSS feed. Even if it was just in one JSON file I could just use Huginn to convert it to an RSS feed (I'm already using Huginn to scrape offers from a few hosts that aren't …
-
(Quote) How though? If they set the from address to yours, it should have failed SPF and DKIM checks, and even without DMARC those emails should have still ended up being marked as spam by most mail systems. Do you have the full headers from one o…

(Quote) FreshRSS can't do it today, but I can add it if needed. The only thing is that the cookies may periodically rotate for security reasons (fairly common these days). (Quote) Isn't that basically what RSS for, at least for a read-only API? If …

(Quote) Yes! Twitter and Facebook are good for aggregating content, but too noisy. On FB I mostly care about posts from friends and groups rather from pages (and that's mostly what I interact with, so I barely see any page posts), and Twitter is ju…

Los Angeles - good connectivity to a lot of parts of the world.
-
(Quote) Sure, will do! Fresh OS install isn't too bad, and actually setting up the system for the DNSTools worker is all in an Ansible role (https://github.com/Daniel15/dnstools/blob/master/ansible/roles/dnstools-worker/tasks/main.yml) so once I've…

I've been using Zappie Host for the New Zealand and South Africa locations on https://dnstools.ws/ for a while (albeit the older LXC-based service rather than this new KVM one). Great provider. A++ would recommend.
-
(Quote) Interesting, I'll ask them about it. Even in its current state, it feels a LOT faster than some other VPSes I've got. I was skeptical about the service quality given the price, but the VPS feels ridiculously fast, to the point where it make…

Contabo VPS S with NVMe drive. €4.99/month, plus I'm paying an extra €1.25/month for their Seattle, USA location. Really nice disk speeds. # ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## Yet-Another-Bench-Script ##…
