Let me check if I have any I have yet to setup on NYCB032, like a reverse lotto. If so, I get to post about the millions per hour lost ;) EDIT: 1 of my baker's dozen of wireguard instances is in migration mode. I am financially ruined.

(Quote) I understand it's not a thin install, but I run these on every other VM provider. I think I have 44 at VirMach alone, most 512M instances, and worst case I'll need to throw 1G of swap to get through some thicc package installs. In the past I…

Thanks, I tried Rocky 9.5 and Alma 9.5, both of these images are basically not able to run. On Alma yum upgrade worked. Upon installing yum install epel-release mtr wget mtr it froze and seemingly went into 100% CPU usage and my machine became unu…
-
2nd image that doesn't work and freezes upon trying to do anything but SSH stays alive. Cannot login via console, it's frozen too. Any reason these machines (HK / China) freeze completely running yum, and your system puts them to a standstill? (Im…

Hmm (Image) Dunno about this. Third try trying yum update even after cleaning. CPU looks fine. SSH seems to hang for 10+ minutes but something keeps the session alive... Wanted to get SmokePing on here which would usually take 5 minutes, I'm 20…

Mentally strong people use uuidgen and never run out of hostnames.

(Quote) (Image) Nope, I just have a VM hoarding problem. You'll likely have 46 soon and I'll hopefully be down to 43. Less VMs to figure out what to do with. :tired_face:
-
(Quote) @VirMach If I read the rules right, which I probably didn't, the person who rolled before me gets the VM. In that case, I think @matcha gets a brand new VM and I have one less that I need to figure out what to do with. Not sure 44 smokepin…

(Quote) Swings and roundabouts my friend, swings and roundabouts. It was bound to be the end of line. Thanks for an amazing month of lunacy.

(Quote) Might as well, I got my fill with that Ryzen - I'll take second wheel
-
I'm in no rush, I had to post it otherwise I wouldn't have. That Ryzen 5120 made my week, and I'm not the lucky type, so almost left it as is. :#

Time to pay the piper. #1669675
-
Debating whether or not to post my second invoice number from last night because I probably have exhausted my luck.
-
(Quote) (Image) I'll take that deal Howie. Gonna make an appearance with family before I post the second order from before, I'm afraid I might have used up my luck for the time being.
-
(Quote) (Image) No second wheel on this please, just catching up.
-
I somehow can't find the order number, just invoice number. It's been a long day. #1669676

(Quote) I'm just waiting for the improved mystery wheel and catching up, in no rush :)
-
This is an interesting mix of excited and worried.

I always go with - trust, but verify. It's been incredibly stable blend and Arelion + Comcast + peering Comcast has seems very impressive in this location. I do a lot of network monitoring due to some fintech clients we have, so we need to show the…

(Quote) Beyond that, they have a good global footprint of PoPs to handle traffic. So instead of all traffic to one data center and drop, it's riding their network backbone to Atlanta. https://ping.pe/66.59.196.1 If you wait 10 seconds and look at …

Kenny Bania reference from Seinfeld, but Atlanta is solid. (Image)

(Quote) It's been really stable so far from the beginning of flash sales. Before adding servers to my UptimeKuma farm to avoid false alarms I put these through the ringer of 9 other smokeping instances to look and avoid cases of jitter or poor / ov…

(Image) Oh wow, when #5 hit #4 combined my 1vCPU, 1GB, 55GB space, 5TB BW evolved into: 1 vCPU, 3GB, 115GB space, 57.25 TB BW , for seemingly half the price biennially. That's some wild s*** right there. Gonna idle this so hard, thank you Virmac…
-
(Quote) Right you are, 55GB disk and 5TB BW, didn't see the BW change
-
(Quote) Yeah, I am just physically unable to debate traces and networking. At NetActuate (now #2 in peers in US) we would get routing requests from companies like Cedexis, NSOne, and then cheaper clients but even more vocal. As long as we got an MTR…
-
(Quote) Sorry, I think you meant I was referring to you as end-user / forum user. That was usurk. I just was done at page 13. I am an old grumpy network admin who basically would tell customers who would complain about network routing to get me an …
-
Seemingly one of mine got 55GB disk and nothing else (thought it was day #4, seemingly day #3 so your luck could be worse) :)
-
(Quote) Not sure who you're trying to fight. You came back 1 page late into a thread and instead of asking VirMach to stop explaining locations and latency, you did to me. I'm a network operator. I used to ask for MTR's both ways, otherwise it did…
-
You mentioned opinions. I use facts over opinions, which is why I stopped responding in the other thread on page 13, and not wasting my time in here. Run and MTR or ping or traceroute, you don't need opinions, and they aren't welcome with me, and …

Page 13: [adds MTRs and pings, stops discussions] Page 14: host responds with location explanations Page 14: FrankZ - don't talk about locations Kris! Page 14: "I noped out of this thread a while ago on page 13 with ping stats." [Comment …

Yeah I just came back to say I left a page earlier as pings looked fine, now it looks like a copypasta.
-
I totally thought I bought a Day 4 / 5, well it was on that Day 4 even though it showed 3 afternoon Day 4. Just realized I might have gotten another #3 :s
-
I just prefer to use latency figures and facts, judging as I live in the area, and have looking glasses with smoke ping at each data center to keep an eye on others. I live Anycast and BGP and did it for NetActuate (HostVirtual) back in the day augm…

Dunno where you got those numbers on, this is a random NYC Metro instance with VM: Fastly: PING 151.101.130.132 (151.101.130.132) 56(84) bytes of data.64 bytes from 151.101.130.132: icmp_seq=1 ttl=54 time=0.847 ms64 bytes from 151.101.130.132: icm…

(Quote) No one called themselves from the NYC metro area. You claimed the area doesn't exist. You stomped your feet and got mad and dissed other cities. If someone claims that Buffalo, NY is more of a NY host than Secaucus, that's how I know you're…

(Quote) Still can ski up there, but Poconos and actually lower upstate (Hunter mountain and Catskills) have made a bit of a comeback. I really loved the weather in Santa Monica but the people were a little different speed. (Quote) Yep, I wouldn't c…
-
(Quote) It's a thing. (Quote) Me neither. I don't like the city, not a fan of the city, and wouldn't be caught dead driving in. It's very good for internet transit though, and Secaucus is across the bridge from NYC. You also have 165 Halsey St in N…

(Quote) I don't, I commute to Northern NJ. But NJ has some of the top schools in the nation, 2 airports nearby (I don't count LGA) that are international and nearby to fly anywhere and reachable in 30mins-1 hour. NJ shore, suburbs, etc. 1-5Gbps FT…

(Quote) What's that line down the middle? (Image)
-
(Quote) It's an actual term. I live in the area, and commute and see NYC daily, while taking the Secaucus exit. It's a PITA and I hate the turnpike and GSP, but don't blow smoke up our arse saying a DC in Buffalo, within a stone's throw to Niagra Fa…
