Anyways,

FREE-VPS-FOR-EVERYONE-ON-PAGE-100

would be great or

RAM-UPGRADE-FOR-EVERYONE-ON-PAGE-100

would work for most of us also!

Anybody have any predictions for the page number and the prize for the next giveaway?

@noob404 - your signature is more than 2 lines btw, might want to consider making it 2 lines.

Pardon me for that. It's been fixed.

Based on absolutely nothing: 106

Makes sense (based on absolutely nothing)

So we're in agreement then!

Yup, as long as I see a GA.

Dustin prolly doesn't know it yet. When he went offline, the party was slowing down a bit. Or, another explanation for this is that, the man was prolly tired, understandably so, and is resting.

Why people are big fan of RAM upgrades here? Isn't CPU the bottleneck for these VPSs?

codelock

Well that was disappointing

Personally I would like bigger SSD docker images are too big you can always use swap for memory

RAM upgrades are for lifetime. They pay the same price as earlier for 512MB+ more RAM. I guess its easier to give out more RAM than cores (financially). Might be completely wrong though.

Yes I watched the thread... but somehow @sanlang is like less than 500milliseconds faster than me... No script involved.

I hope these 500 milliseconds can bring me luck, so this year’s Black Friday will be something I will never forget!

@noob404 are you a bot? 241 posts yesterday Not much left to take the 1st place from @dustinc

Looks like he really wants the first prize there are pages of him replying to his own comments

Guys horny for the prize
So are you

Secretly, everyone's horny for the prize. It's just that not everyone has the time to post continuously, ramming their keyboard.

Well, I would like to be in the top 6 for once But the thing is that because the Stats page is public, at the end of the event everyone goes crazy and "I've got bills to pay"

So, you now regret having the stats page?
That's been really helpful for us guys though.
Anyways, as for my posting, I will not be available enough this year. Last year took a toll on me. So, I am just trying to stay in the game. BTW, what are you aiming for, in the prize pool?

In the main random event I would like to get the laptop. My 12-year old N56VZ is barely holding (I already ordered monitor hinges, because they are giving up, I hope to revive it at least for a while ). From the activity event anything would work. I guess anything would get converted to account credit, unless as I mentioned a lot of pages ago, if @dustinc would start using EU Amazon for EU residents for delivery

Cheap ultrabook plus a vps
Did the math with my setup and it's definetly cheaper by a long run

Yeah, that would also work. I don't even need a VPS since I have quite a good home server. But since my laptop is still not dead I can still use it

Yeah buy a 100€ laptop and use that with a home server, works great for me (i have a company macbook but done use the macbook part... just a glorified rdp client)

MT, if I am not wrong. Anyways, he's in the US. So, it's pretty late to be awake anyways.

No one's gonna argue. Everybody is happy to have a Stats page, at least.

It depends on what you already have. In my opinion the best ratio for CPU:RAM is 1:2, so currently I am missing on RAM

How do we know that you did not hardcode that for your account make the code open-source

Personally I would like bigger SSD docker images are too big you can always use swap for memory

I would also take the storage upgrade, but RAM upgrades are more common

Financially too, isn't it easier to allocate more RAM than cores?
