cociu - hostsolutions.ro - NETSILVANIA | Move your services!

raindog308

We're going to keep this thread open as "information central" on the involucrapaclypse.

However, I think we've aired out all of the thoughts about the following kinds of topics and are done with them:

• should providers comment on this thread
• philosophical expounding on the nature of competition and capitalism
• is provider X morally better than provider Y
• was provider X hosting CP
• opinions about providers other than HostSolutions

etc. Let's keep this thread focused on discussing HostSolutions/cociu. Anything else should go to the Pit from now on.

Is power surge possible while using UPS ?

I was under impression that those UPS usually do double conversion AC -> DC -> AC
which in theory makes the AC coming to servers completely independent of the AC from the grid

and if the surge is big enough the UPS itself will fry not the devices connected to it

A cheap PSU, can fry every peace of hardware you have inside a PC or Server.
Sure it would be also possible with a UPS.

So honest question here. Say he sells the IP range, could he make a deal to rent it back again?

Him selling the range would mean he's in dire need of money, no? But he is offering a year and half a year free service? Does that not ring any bells at all?

Pretty bad business.

IP's are $40/IP+ right now so if he's lucky he'll see like $38k (fees, etc).

Even if a leaser is getting $1/month/IP, you're still talking a 3 - 4 year return on it.

You aren't getting $1/month/IP on leases though, it's more like $0.50~$0.60/IP/m on the high end (we lease at $0.40/IP/m). So you're talking a 6+ break even if the blocks are constantly leased out.

It's possible someone will play the really long game, but i've yet to see it.

and if the surge is big enough the UPS itself will fry not the devices connected to it - not , you have at least three safety devices/fuse ( fuse on primary AC line , fuse on UPS , fuse on AC circuit for each Rack, fuse on each PDU... )

@dedicatserver_ro said: I haven't had any downtime in the 5 years, not even when they changed the generators and the UPS ( 2 years ago ).

We had a lot of downtime and when it started to get worse and not better, had to move. It usually broke around midnight for a few minutes up to 2 hours 2-3 times a month and lately every week or more often.
We moved in February 2020 iirc.
The Pipera DC with the portable generators outside near the FanCourier location, forgot address.

@404error said: Are you saying that you can accuse me of something and that I'm the one needing t prove its a lie? doesn't sound right to me..

Yes, as I understand it, in a slander or libel case the burden of proof is on the plaintiff to prove the statement is false.

This is so fucking stupid I wish you were only joking.

I am interested to see the court cases, both that of cociu and Francisco. The latter did have the habit of threatening people and businesses, I thought it was just a phase, now I am very curious to see how it ends.

Here, in Romania, it is easy to follow it, if no other LEA (LowEndAttorney) offers, I could try to be there albeit now I am not longer living in the capital due to health reasons.

I considered going to the last court date he had, since my office is literally right across the street but since my Romanian is rather limited I decided there was no point.

What, with all the fresh, clean air we have here in Buc? /s

Do I understand correctly that Borta will go to the court on 01.07.2021?
