(Quote) Hey Rahul. Thanks for tagging me. I spent a lot of time at the original LowEndSpirit Forum, but I've always been a lurker. I started with VPSs (back then called LVSs) back in 2004 and I was lucky to come across LES along that journey. I don…

(Quote) Oh, this is terrible. Why did you point it out? We have to have you eliminated now. /me deploys the butt-plug trinity squad

(Quote) It is for my original project, but this would be a cool litttle shell also. Check your PM. Thanks!

I feel a liiiitle bit bad posting this, but, I also enjoy schadenfreude. This is what went down between me and a scalper the other day. Redacted to protect the... innocent. (Image) It was just perfect timing between our exchange and when the axe…

(Quote) 😂 It's a fair question. My hardware at home is literally 10 years old, but hey, it gets the job done. I just don't get the same performance. What impressed me about the Mystery Box is how insanely fast it is, for something with so little me…

(Quote) You lucky dog. I don't wanna know what you went through to get that prize. Congrats. (Quote) 🤷🏽♂️ I live in a third world country where v6 is still not widely deployed. (Quote) 👀 (Quote) Nice! Let me look into the details real quick. I'l…

Meanwhile, turns out good guy dgc1980 was confused about the size of his VPS. He's got a 384 just like me, so I'm still looking for a more appropriately sized 128MB.

(Quote) Heck yeah! I'll PM you. Thanks!

(Quote) 😂 You know what's funny? I tried with one and it... did not go well. BUT I would be open to it, yes. Thanks!

(Quote) I have sucessfully used NIXOS_LUSTRATE on a remote server, can't recall which one. There's also nixos-in-place, which I used on a Virmach box that didn't support custom ISOs. (Quote) Yup, that's exactly what the documentation mentions as on…

Install NixOS on the same partition (in place!), from your existing non-NixOS Linux distribution using NIXOS_LUSTRATE. (Quote) “Booting” into NixOS via kexec is also fun. Automated Linux from Scratch I have fond memories of customizing/automating…

(Quote) Heh. Maybe, uh? The Lotus 1-2-3 link was very interesting too. I don't think I used it, but I did use dBase quite a bit back in the day.

(Quote) It's also used in embedded systems. Honestly, I kind of want to try it on a 128MB box now. (Quote) Anything's an anal plug if you're brave enough.

(Quote) FWIW, I installed Alpine on it and this little thing is a freaking beast. Perfect for running caddy with some low-traffic sites. Learned a ton in the process too. vm:~$ free -m total used free shared buff/ca…

(Quote) Oh, man. I hate to pick a cliché, but Captain Crunch's phone network hack, mainly because it inspired the name for 2600 magazine and I have many fond memories of attending their meetings. (Quote) I'll have to check these out. Thanks!

(Quote) Just a friendly comment: I would suggest you don't download random code (or even stay logged in) as root. I know you didn't run anything, and maybe this is a VM, but I still think it's a good practice to avoid those habits.
-
(Quote) Hell yeah! I'm loving it. Between that and my trusty $7/yr 2020 deal, I feel like I'm actually costing @VirMach.

(Quote) Got this one. Let's goooo! 😂 Well, you win some you lose some. I'll use it to host some simple static sites.

(Quote) Did you end up posting anything? I saw your $10 credit flash deals, but I was hoping to get a deal on a Texas 8GB VDS from you. 😔

(Quote) Damn. Alright. Thanks!

Gone?

(Quote) Is Mouse 500GB, IPv6 only?
-
@servarica_hani: for the drawing, do the points from the order stack with the point for comments?
-
I didn't realize the Mouse plan was so popular, I would've guessed the credit would be more appealing. I might have to reconsider...

Am I the first to order? Happy to be back with Servarica after the demise of my Inception Hosting storage box. Order ♯ 9077856769 edit: nope, just need new glasses

(Quote) Maybe that's what I ran into back then. (Quote) Ah, I recently had to deal with those to get an autossh to work reliably. (Quote) Makes sense. And I see that as a bonus. Thanks again for the info. I appreciate it. (Quote) Nice. Will do. T…

(Quote) I've actually been eyeing HostBrr for a bit, just waiting for a good deal (1TB/$30 w/IPv4). Thanks for replying.
-
(Quote) Ohhh... this might work as well. Use the VPS for the transfer, not the storage. Only downside is that I liked the idea of the VPS having an offsite copy of the files, but I really should focus on having proper backups instead. Thanks! (Quot…

And just for fun, because I've seen some people post these, here's my humble home server, build ca. 2015, but still going on strong. # ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## Yet-Another-Bench-Script ## …

Interesting aside: I never realized how quickly stuff gets indexed by search engines nowadays. I was searching on DuckDuckGo (which I believe used Bing) for "add remote storage to vps", and this thread is already one of the results. 🤯
