(Quote) I actually have lots of data points, not just a single bench. This is why I became curious and started to dig. It seems like scripts tend to be under-reporting for reasons that I don't know why, even when everything else is pretty much contr…
-
(Quote) Nope I didn't use the same flags but they should not affect because there is no timeout (--max-time accounted for) and -s simply silences curl, but I did use -o because I had to output the file to disk. I cannot see how they can reasonably e…

Many of the big cloud players will be AMD soon. Not being able to hyperthread on Intel processors hurt profitability like crazy for them. They probably consider the change a capital investment for the next 5 years.

Welcome @Delong!

(Quote) I know.. there is no easy way to passthrough. Here's one guide that apparently works: https://mathiashueber.com/windows-virtual-machine-gpu-passthrough-ubuntu/

(Quote) Haven't tried it yet. I am just going with a full single boot Linux install but I intend to stick a spare SSD this month into the system and see how it goes. From my research, everything can be passed through into any virtual machine on say …

(Quote) Even if it works now, the question is for how long. The GFW army is huge and they are on cyberpatrols every day.
-
(Quote) I don't need to look elsewhere now that I have Windscribe, but they are blocked in China and I don't think they care too much about fighting the GFW unfortunately.

(Quote) According to Google, it is not as important now.

(Quote) It seems to be an open, on-going offer that has no expiry. They review case by case.

If a VPS does not spark joy, cancel it!

(Quote) I haven't been to Vegas. The most sinful place I have been to in the USA is Orlando.

(Quote) Sorry about think you are in China. The currency is spiraling downwards too. :) Ok, now that I know your location, to keep everything that you have going at a really decent cost, I am going to suggest that you go with @HostDoc in either Kan…

I am not sure how well Ivacy works in China. Might be better to roll your own.

(Quote) I got my from stacksocial and it said lifetime defined as 10 + 10 upon request. Considering my age, it's pretty much my lifetime.

(Quote) @cociu ahem..

Didn't get because haven't figured out how to tunnel through HE to access the box. I do have some NATs with @mikho that has IPv6 so I should try and figure it out.
-
@Ouji You clearly have an addiction, like we all do at some point. :) I think you should just work out what are the CPU, RAM and storage requirements and consolidate on a well-managed VPS offering optimum performance nearest to you (you are in Chin…

(Quote) That's... quite underwhelming for 4 core. Guess I will stay away from Virmach. I will probably be remorseful despite the price.
-
(Quote) Yes. I had boxes that ran ok with providers that are massively popular during this period, and they are now stuttering with the influx.
-
(Quote) That clock speed and Nvme speed combined easily manages even busy medium sized database-driven sites without breaking a sweat. I am hugging my box so tightly that you won't pry it from my fingers until I am dead.

(Quote) A buyer's remorse for sale to make up for someone's Black Friday slow finger remorse.

I had a little hiccup with building a PC for research purposes using second hand parts, with the motherboard dying on me on Black Friday. Faced with the choice of getting another secondhand motherboard or changing both motherboard and CPU to a brand…

(Quote) Wow, that second storage is tasty.

(Quote) One of them is mine. I ended up with something this Black Friday after all. > @vyas said: (Quote) I got the Asia 256mb package. I am leaving my beastly PC in my university to run AI stuff 24/7 but because of the university's NAT, I neede…

I am glad I learned to roll my own. I like my no-frills YunoHost when I am lazy.

(Quote) The cores and RAM on paper is overkill, although the price is nice. I guess if the price is right and your job is done, the rest does not matter.

(Quote) People like to look at price only. At least Virmach is a decent host although for the same price you can find other hosts with slightly lower specs but actually better performance overall.
