Can I get a free VPS for educational purpose?

Could this be a case of not able to communicate properly because English might not be his first language cos at the end I feel that's just it from his choice of words but then again his "friend" claims he's just like that so what do I know

English is his 2nd language and he is quite good at it. He's just passive aggressive. And he will kick my nuts as I said this.

If this doesn’t interest you, I believe you can contact https://mzunguhosting.ml and they may give you a free VPS

Why do I feel like OP is trolling and actually just seek attention?

Man I've really gotta confess now

He's my friend, yes, school friend

He honestly has a very shitty attitude IRL too (no one likes him at school and everyone wants him gone. we had an argument in our school friends' mc server discord about why he doesnt attend voice chats, i just randomly said "bro what is your mom" [crude translation from bengali mind you] and i meant it in a way that said "why is your mom so restrictive" and he marched ahead and left the server)
He has a very big ego problem, I (along with many) have told him to change his attitude to which he replies "this attitude keeps me alive"

IDK about you but nice people are also alive. I see my dad everyday, very nice and cool-headed guy who barely gets angry in the most heated of arguments. He's alive.

Also to clarify I did not tell him to join LET. He joined LET only after I said I got a NanoKVM from here (which I think I earned it). He was planning on getting over 40 posts in less than a month.

I really feel guilty of this whole thread. I'm sorry guys. I failed y'all.

I don't get the point here. He is whatever he is, but are you trying to gain sympathy for him ?

Hello! @Zephyr

We can offer you a 1 month free VPS for education purpose if you want. (No any credit/debit card required)

1 month is not enough for me but if u want u can give me (at least i can do some practice with it), but plz don't expect tht im going to pay for it or continue using tht vps after 1 month.

Not even a thank you? He offered you a free VPS and this is your response? Where has the gratitude gone in this world?

@HostWild I'd retract your offer.

I was also thinking the same. what an approach.

No and no
What docker container would you run anyways? I’ll give you a 256MB KVM if you want to play with it but I can’t guarantee it will stay up too long

Sounds like a good opportunity for you and @Zephyr to apply your skills. Find out what it takes to get a ".edu" for your school and put up a website for them.

You would acquire real-life work experience and add value to the school. Such activities look very good on college applications. Maybe there are other like-minded students who would join together to share and teach computers. You could establish a capability at the school from the "bottom up."

Getting an .edu in India is as hard as getting a /24 (not leasing).

It's safe to get .in and apply to GitHub for verification (then Ms azure is auto verified). Or stop the whole mess and just send your ID to GitHub to get verified.

psst, but nice one though. I was invited to manage DNS and hosting for my school website, i sent an email to them and no reply yet.

Yup. I started doing @Zephyr and @Otus9051 homework:

It is not possible to get a .edu in India. In summary, .edu domains are restricted to US-based post-secondary institutions. That means colleges and universities. There are a few holdovers with .edu domains that were allowed to keep them after the policies were introduced. Here are the official registration site as well as the Wikipedia article on .edu:
https://net.educause.edu/eligibility.htm
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.edu

I picked a few random schools that offer primary (elementary) education in India as examples. They use ".edu.in" or non-education-based domains like .org. I also noticed that ".school" domains are available to anyone, but the fee is much higher than a .org or many other domains. Cloudflare charges at cost, and their registration fee for a .school domain is $23.18.

I did a quick web search and found an organization that claims to be the exclusive registrar for India-based education-related domains in ".ac.in", ".edu.in", and ".res.in" domains.
https://ernet.in/content/domain-registration
https://www.registry.ernet.in/Annexure/SO_P.pdf

I did not bother to price out domain registrations from them. There are many steps and required documents to register a .edu.in domain, and it will obviously require the interest and cooperation of the adult leadership at the school.
-> If I were Zephyr and Otus, I would start by figuring out all the steps needed and document them in a written proposal to submit. It would be a better use of your time than spending it on LowEndTalk. :-o

Edit:
