My main website is in Seattle. This location is chosen according to the geographical distribution of my readers. In past 30 days: * Eastern Asia: 45.89% * Northern America: 16.19% * Western Europe: 8.48% * Eastern Europe: 4.87% * Southeast Asia: 4…

I said twice I don't want the IPv6 Only, but it kept coming up in my dreams, so I caved (or is it mis-clicked). The specs couldn't get better: * 3 cores, AUP allows 75% usage, so it's 2 unlimited cores * 4GB RAM * $17.40/year Moreover, there's unl…

@Hosterlabs IPv6 Only Canada - IPv6 Power IPv4 access is through an IPIP6 tunnel to Webhosting24 Munich, across the Atlantic and 99ms away. Initial review: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/63188/#Comment_63188 [root@vps3 ~]# curl -s…

(Quote) He wouldn't. The auditorium manager works with microphones and projectors. He doesn't know much about websites. He had a student to make a website for the auditorium, hosted on the same server. The main purpose of that site is to publish a …

My first website is on a desktop computer at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, circa 2006-2008. I was in charge of developing the student housing department website. I'm paid enough for my own meals as well as sometimes taking pretty girls to school ca…

Anyway, I tried a Debian 10 text installer on Nexril Dallas, booted via netboot.xyz. * When the first menu (select a language) appears, press ESC key to get to the main menu. * Select "execute a shell". * Run command to setup IP address a…

(Quote) This is the correct answer. (Quote) Yes, ip command is available by the time you get to network configuration page. (Quote) Not an excuse. sudo apt install gvncviewergvncviewer 192.0.2.1:1 The number after colon is "desktop number&q…

(Quote) I don't read the LES blog myself. I'd like the Google Search result to index my blog instead. (Quote) You do not need a tool to type an ASCII art. The Overtype mode for Visual Studio Code is very helpful. Occasionally I type SVG source cod…

I'm building a global network to efficiently deliver push-up videos to worldwide viewers. I thought about it and realized that there's not much benefit adding an IPv6-only node in North America to my network, because I already have 4 dual-stack nod…

CPU policy is very loose: "CPU Abuse is defined as: You might not use more than 75% of a shared CPU resource for more than 72 hours in a given week or 6 straight hours." The 4GB IPv6-only would be perfect for compute intensive tasks such …

(Quote) Not interesting at all: * laptop (Acer Spin 5): Windows 10, Insider slow ring * desktop (Raspberry Pi 4B 2GB): Ubuntu 20.04 * home router: OpenWrt 19.07 * house server (BeagleBone Black): Debian 10 * VPS smaller than 1GB: Debian 10 * VPS 1G…

(Quote) Windows 98 via qemu-system or DOSBox. 128MB RAM and 2GB disk are more than enough. Be sure to throttle the CPU usage of the emulator, as these systems tend to use 100% normally. Don't connect the Windows 98 to the Internet.

(Quote) It counts, but only if you do it in Old Spice Hand Gym. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6-k_7hBtv4 (Quote) For most people: * Netherlands means Amsterdam. * Asia optimized means China optimized. (Quote) The next one should be yoursunnySu…

(Quote) My mental picture of Europe is like this: (Image) (as bad as @seriesn 's blue dot) Map of Europe is this: I thought all of Russia is Europe, and that's why I feel Munich is at the center of Western Europe, but apparently half of Russi…

(Quote) My meme provider is as real as EntryBytes in Amsterdam. As long as you can YABS and idle, the rest doesn't matter. (Image) (Quote) Stay tuned for next summer. Maybe I'll have experimental IPv4, or a new location … (Quote) I saw the Breed…

(Quote) Matching plan ≠ same company. We each creates free VPS in our own provider. (Spoiler) (Quote) It's not Amsterdam. It's Naaldwijk in the southwest corner of Netherlands. Not much difference in network topology though.
-
(Quote) Antarctica is an exotic location, which compensates for not having IPv4 and IPv6. With RAM and storage being equal, and dedicated cores, it can be considered equal spec. (Quote) You'll have to ask @DA_Mark for community spirit, but would he…
-
(Quote) 3 push-ups. 3 IPv9-only VPS in Antarctica; winner chooses IPv9 address; same RAM and storage amount (confirmed in YABS). (Quote) Content should be public. Bob has nowhere to hide.
-
(Quote) I double dare Bob. If Bob does 3 push-ups and gives away 3 free VPS, I'll do the same.
-
(Quote) False advertising. EntryBytes is not Ryzen. (Quote) Image URI is missing TLS. Hostname is missing AAAA record. What can go wrong? Bob needs to do 3 push-ups and give away 3 free VPS to make up for these 3 mistakes.

(Quote) Yes, NDP responder is working. Moreover, I made the original ndppd working too. Technical/Tutorial thread will be posted in next few days. (Quote) It's the third time I'm affected by intermittent connectivity problem caused by a faulty link…
-
(Quote) My answer above assumes you have a large scale (think Cloudflare and Google). Redundancy at each POP ensures a server failure would not affect traffic at that POP, because the load balancer should have caught that. Then, BGP helps you when …
-
(Quote) Today I spent more than an hour designing the experiment, reading the logs, and writing the analysis. (Spoiler) You should do the same and get to the root cause, instead of curing the symptom.
-
(Quote) I finished my investigation and I blame the router. Wireshark packet trace and traceroute are provided in Ticket #4562666. (Quote) Don't blame ebtables. They are innocent. I stand with ebtables. We can continue to blame Virtualizor for mis…
-
There are two benefits in using anycast. First, you can reduce latency without using GeoDNS. A drawback of GeoDNS is that, if the client is using a resolver far from themselves and the resolver doesn't support EDNS Client Subnet extension, the clie…

(Quote) I have tcpdump, ping, and traceroute all running in a loop. I'm waiting for the next outage alert from UptimeRobot. (Quote) It's the second time this week that someone told me they have no clue what Virtualizor is doing. Link to previous cl…
-
(Quote) Can you explain exactly what's the problem? What I'm seeing is, even if I force neighbor solicitation and neighbor advertisement to be transmitted from a global address (e.g. by disabling link-local address on the network interface), my KVM…
-
(Quote) I know, Evolution Host has ebtables too, and they too reject neighbor advertisement packets transmitted from a link-local address. I made my own NDP responder that transmits neighbor advertisement packets from my global address, and it works…

Prices increased significantly since the launch offer (even without the upgrade). What happened to the /64 prefix? The /64 prefix in my box is behaving erratically. It seems that neighbor advertisement packets transmitted from a link-local address…

(Quote) We are supposed to look forward and embrace the coolest stuff, e.g. systemd and Netplan and Docker. I just didn't expect PCI address changing in a KVM. Last time I witnessed a changed PCI address was on a bare metal Supermicro server. I wen…

Nextcloud server side encryption doesn't make sense if the Nextcloud application server and the storage are managed by the same entity and located in the same place. If the administrator wanted or is forced to access the data, they have both the sto…

TCP port check is very useful, because some servers block ICMP ping while allow TCP.
-
(Quote) Overwriting network configuration is an annoying feature in both Virtualizor and SolusVM. Luckily, neither mess with Netplan configuration. (Quote) In the old times with OpenVZ 6, the serial port is handled similarly in SolusVM. User can re…

(Quote) That's why I only create drama thread when the server is totally and undeniably offline. We scientists know that every experiment must be repeated 5 times!

(Image) We ask Bob to do push-ups. Bob needs to do push-ups to stay healthy.

€1 for 200GB / lifetime? My last one at this price is 60% full, so I want another!

(Quote) For website such as my blog, I pick location so that my readers experience lower latency. However, I have worldwide readers so I can't make everyone happy, unless I resort to complicated GeoDNS solutions. In the past month, I have 38% reade…
