    I setup wireguard on a vps and use it on my pc. When bored, I took a screenshot of 403 error on vps portal page then went to livechat to blame them. 😶

    Does it count for idle ?! :)) from time to time i went to the server just to see the uptime and apt update/upgrade :)) :)) :))

    Hilarious? I think so. I purchased a dirt cheap Windows VPS but the performance is so bad with just 2GB RAM. So I asked the support team to mount netbootxyz iso then installed Debian on it.

    I ran a bot to collect images of Japanese people with a lot of skin exposed, but when the disk filled up and I checked the images, most of them turned out to be sumo wrestlers.

    I bought a colocrossing VPS and found out there was a routed /48 ipv6 subnet.

    Preventing unauthorized hotlinking is the most interesting thing I do. Just update my posts with new images and redirect old ones to nsfw content like porn.

  • Buying a VM by not knowing what to do with it & then leaving it idle until it expires is the most funny thing to me.. :D

  • @ColoCrossing said: VPS Credit Giveaway: Share the Funniest Thing You’ve Used a VM For!

    Grab a VPS, blame the provider for reducing RAM like this and get free extra memory. :D

    i bought an annual VPS from @c1vhosting to use for webserver.

    • first the cpu performance was bad, he/she said it was AI
    • then the VPS went up and down more times than rollercoaster, he/she said it was "planned maintenance"
    • suddenly out of the blue IPv4 stopped working (actually assigned to ANOTHER service) and i received a notification "last reminder to reclaim your IPv4"
    • finally all VPSes got reprovisioned with much less ram and CPU than advertised

    actually its not just funny the whole experience, but rather this Luca should consider change of career and venture into comedy as well!

    my entry mandates first prize.

    Here we go, I bought annual monster vps for host simple static html that no one visit

    I thought i saved $$$ since it flash sale, until next billing cycle came (wth I was doing)

  • @ColoCrossing said: VPS Credit Giveaway: Share the Funniest Thing You’ve Used a VM For!

    I installed promox on a dedicated server to deploy and enjoy a vm with just 64MB ram. It's really more insane than funny.

  • I once bought a VPS (with yearly commitment) to use as secondary/failover webserver for a website, in case the primary VPS webserver faced any issues. Although the 2 VPS systems were from completely different providers, I found out that the latency between them was less then 1ms.. Then I found out that the provider of the secondary VPS rented their servers from the provider of my primary VPS and were standing next to each other in the same DC. Whenever the primary VPS went down because of network issues, the secondary VPS also went down èvery same time!

    When I bought a VPS during last year's Black Friday sale, it was mostly sitting idle—like 99% of the time. But then, when I actually needed to use it for compiling or testing software, I’d always run into terrible network issues. Like, the download speed to North America would drop to just 10Mbps or even less. Luckily, the support team always fixed it by switching the node. But honestly, it’s happened twice in the last few months, and I’m just so unlucky!
