Huh, I still see NanoKVM still have a lot of stock on aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007369816019.html Does @Neoon want to buy some? :lol:

(Quote) Agree. AVOID lifetime deals, no matter how cheap it seems, unless it is a software product where you get the offline installer and can use the software offline.

(Quote) I do that for buying server hardware for my homelab, but did not consider it for storage... Just CPU & RAMs. Will give it a try, thanks for the idea.

Looked at it, signed up with a throwaway email (using the refferal) and then looked at their API documentation. Seems too troublesome to upload even 1 file as they need the files to be in 1M chunks and AES encrypted, and each chunk to be uploaded on…

(Quote) Yep, the issue being when shopping SSDs online, i tend to go with the "cheaper" option over good quality one... Last time i even got a PNY brand SSD that was slower then a actual HDD. Well, next time need to remember to go with goo…

(Quote) Yea, that's why I was wondering if i should go with a HDD, cause my use case is sustained transfer of large amounts of data, where HDD and SSDs perform almost similarly until SSDs hit their cache limit and slows down, while HDDs will keep ch…

(Quote) I had around 4 samsung SSDs. 1 of the 500 GB nvme (970 evo from 2019) died on me. Rest are still working fine. So agree with you on the quality for samsung SSDs. Decided to use one of the samsung 2.5" SSDs for the OS disk and use the c…

(Quote) So you pulled the drive out while backup was running and decided to drop it onto hard concrete floor a couple dozen times? Happens to the best of us :lol: FYI, my Seagate Ironwolf 4TB drives are working fine. Only used for data backups in m…

Sigh... need to update all 3 nodes (first world problems) :lol: Thanks for letting us know, and reminding me that I haven't run updates in a while!

Been scraping the internet for ages. Never needed any API. Just curl is enough. If you want to make a bot, it's easy enough to make one without looking for APIs.

(Quote) It's either planned to be a proxy or spam/phishing email sender. Could also be a phishing site as residential IPs are still not banned on most blocklists...

(Quote) I think as long as he avoids eating beans, wind control should not be an issue. Also, avoid dairy products and whole grain foods just to be extra safe.

(Quote) I initially switched from chrome to brave browser however I was still getting ads with it so stopped using it. Other then that, it's a fine browser so give it a try. (Quote) Ya, firefox could definitely work on their device support, special…
-
@Not_Oles Sorry for being late. As of now, firefox + ublock origin is the only way. Since google's rice-bowl is ads, you can't expect them to allow or use ad blockers on their browsers. I am just glad they didn't start pushing ads into their existi…

(Quote) I am still using dual E5-2695 v4 CPU in my home server. It's very good. Keeps your house warm :lol: (Quote) Where are my pentium mmx servers?

What a bad day to not have paypal... Then again, I dont really need another idler. Very good offer though. Did you manage to send it to a good owner?

$399 for 10 years is about 40 dollar per year. That is NOT enough even for just electricity. And I doubt anyone was going to drop 400 dollars on a server from a domain registered on just 1 year ago on 21-Dec-2023

One line, yes. One click, no. Nothing to click in terminal.

(Quote) Better then seasoning the potato with Radium...

(Quote) And here i thought it was some new weird crypto currency launched by Nintendo. Turns out, it's the OG trading system!

Wait, how does the payment via "Pokémon trading cards" work?

(Quote) Why not? How else are we going to contact him about his cars extended warranty?

Normal usage implies what almost everyone use a vps for. So ask yourself, does the majority of users compile software on their vps? Of course you can always ask your provider about your use case, but I would get a dedicated server or dedicated core…

If you are still calling it piracy, then it's clearly not allowed under most laws that respect copyrights.
