    In 2 days we got 400k views, that means that each day is 200k views or 138.89 views per minute 👀 LET's servers must be really strong!

    We are too gentle viewing the post.

    MORE.

    Okay, I estimate that we'll reach 2.5 million views on Friday, Dec. 2nd if these views are increasing at a consistent rate. 5 days doesn't sound that bad for 1 million views 😛

    Especially the megathread, I bet there's at least 100 refreshes simultaneously at the start of each hour when a new deal comes out!

    Is this renewal perhaps eligible for the doubling offer?

    So, the time has come!

    As per agreement with @ishrak , I am giving away the

    @dustinc said: RYZEN NVMe - 1.5 GB Ryzen KVM VPS

    1x AMD Ryzen CPU Core

    22 GB NVMe SSD Storage
    1.5 GB DDR4 RAM
    3000GB Monthly Premium Bandwidth
    1Gbps Public Network Port
    Full Root Admin Access
    1 Dedicated IPv4 Address
    KVM / SolusVM Control Panel - Reboot, Reinstall, Manage rDNS, & much more
    Deployed in Random Location
    Renew's @ $35.59/Year (No obligation to renew, no gimmicks, no catch. Simply FREE)

    Edit: the prize is for 6 months. Just noticed that I missed to mention that.

    @ishrak said: You can also give the ryzen VM away to someone that needs it.

    So it is not "the first comment"...

    Prerequisites:

    • User must be created before November 1st 2022 (just don't create a user to request a VM now)
    • User must Thank the original (first) @dustinc post
    • User must Thank @ishrak post Link here for this giveaway to happen
    • User might thank this post by me

    Requirement: user must specify, WHY he needs it! There should not be a need for idling, also "having a proxy" would probably not be the correct use case for this powerful VM - there are plenty NAT VMs that would work just fine for this use case. I am looking something more special. Something community related would get you to the top of the list. Make a post about this in this thread.

    I can say, I am running https://racknerd.projecthive.eu/ on exactly the same VM which I won a week ago. The VM is way too powerful for this project, but this would be a good example for community related project ;)

    I will go through the next 10 pages manually and collect all applications into spreadsheet. Then will have a subjective sorting on the WHY the VM is needed. Decision should be announced quite quickly (but give me some time), but @ishrak has a VETO right, if he thinks my decision is wrong, he can choose another winner.

    Just as a note - @dustinc didn't contact me for the VM prize, nor did he contact me for the traded prize yet, but I trust that everything will be ok.

    I also hope so. The question is - 10 pages is it too much work for me, is it not enough (maybe most of good applicators will be sleeping through this period)... :D I hope I will not burn out of this, and that I will find someone that really needs it. :)

    How do you think, the requirements are correct, or am I too strict with this? :D

    I think @Arkas wanted a Ryzen badly

    But he was asking about the 2.5GB. Question is - is 1.5GB enough for him or not? Anyways, he can also write the application :D

    If you want, I can try helping you compile responses from >10 pages of comments!
    As for the requirements, they’re pretty fair, I think it’s good.
