    @BlazinDimes how can I peer with you for a direct connection?

    What for? I have plenty of solutions for this.

    DN42? Or running your own network?

    Currently my network is in a state of chaos, as I just got back into the game right after missing the RackNerd BF thread this year. So nothing is really organized right now.

    Ohh I am curious now.... I just dropped my ASN because annual ripe fee.

    Honestly the only thing still standing is my Tailscale network that connects a few essential services, its a long story but I've had some rough times since I was super active in 2021 and had built out a large network of servers all over the globe. Had big plans, but life happened to take a nosedive for a while.

    I know you are super active in 21 and when i decided to join in 22 you were no where to be seen, i guess life just gives you surprises ...

    It sure did, I was doing big things, and it suddenly fell apart. Not sure I want to go into details, but I'm back!

    glad to have you back, the details can wait, if you are able to stabilize the life it's what matters to me.

    Thanks, that actually means a lot. I always enjoy this community. Ended up leaving the IT business completely for a while, switched to small engine repair, and a little automotive on the side. Happy to be back.

    Glad it's working out for you, i also need to figure something out, the shopify sucks and woocommerce is poorly designed, slackware just doesn't fit right with me, adobe ruined magento, what else is there?

    Actually I've been working on building shopify kind of website, in low scale and basic features. Halted due to health issues this year. It'll be in my road map for 2025.

    Ohh i am already interested in your projects and clients :joy:

    I work on softwart part. You bring the customers. I am pretty bad at marketing and negotiation. :D

    I am good at negotiations and marketing, what you say let's start a venture :joy:

    You got it boss 😀

    Hahaha, you really want that 1st position 😜😜😜

    I can always have a nice laptop in my blanket

    How many more computers you need in your data center. :p

    One can't have enough, for the home dc it requires too much money 😔😔 i think I should buy lotto ticket from US

    Send some rigs to me.

    I... MIGHT be retiring this ASRock Mobo with the Xeon from RackNerd soon, but it I'm not sure if it will suit your needs. Plus shipping might be more than it is worth!

    Not the shipping but the import duty :joy: our idiot officers are known to impose full 48% uty even on used goods clearly documented not for sale.

    Hahahahah, 100% duty!

    In some cases yeah upto 100% talk about buying used goods for cheep ended up paying way more than a new one :joy:

    Yes I avoid shipping to India from internationally.

    well i have the ipad 10th gen from dustin the shipping experience was flawless can't say same for customs :joy:

    Ok.. laptop for ipad. deal. :D

    will you pay for the import duty? if yes sure :joy:

    I just drop from competition, you handle everythign else. :D

    why do you have a propane torch in server room? :joy:

    It's a garage, computers and cars kinda just mix for me. XD

    Oh, that makes sense then. What would say is right - your love for cars ignited the hardware tinkering spirit in you, or the other way round?

    2025 - YEAR RACKNERD EXPANDS TO ASIA !!

    Who else is waiting for this?

    Hoping for some @dustinc magic for this.

    Me as well. What Asian location do you think would be best for us?

    Singapore, of course.
    More feasible for the provider (more options, hence cheaper), and you can get as low as 33ms to Chennai.

    that's cool, far better than what i get from my location.

    Oh, at my place it's 45ms. Still good enough.

    Based on my testings from Bangalore:
    SG - 40ms
    MY Johor - 43ms
    MY Kuala Lumpur - ~50ms
    ID - 55ms
    HK - 75ms
    JP - 100ms

    Oh, so, Japan has the highest pings? Didn't know this.

    that's ancient stuff dude, do you still have it?

    I think I lost it in 2015-ish due to a sketchy landlord basically stealing everything I owned and selling it on eBay, unfortunately.

    sed, i would have loved to see it up and running thats some collectible stuff for me

    I still collect old tech, but I lost a big chunk of really cool stuff to that guy. Unfortunate, but he's a well known slumlord and I knew the risks of taking that cheap apartment.

    damn, that guy sounds grumpy old man, i am not good with them.... but i hope you get to collect more and show them to me :wink:

    I've got some cool stuff yet, but a lot is in storage. I'll share what I can!

    waiting intensifies :joy: take your time we will be here for the entire month.

    1999 iBook

    Ridiculous collection of sealed Dell OEM copies of Windows 95

    Bonus picture of the inside of a GM 3100v6 just because I do a little of everything. :p

    send me one win95 :joy: or wait no i will just collect one sometime :joy:

    Win95, I would try it on a vm

    I am also a software hoarder, I might even have the leaked source for 95. :D

    Hehehe, show us

    I'll have to find where I put it! It's 3AM here so I'm gonna be slowing down. Plenty of time to show off all the neat stuff I have collected though, don't wanna do it all in one night!

    Yup, do it one comment at a time. That way, you can have more comments and we can also ask questions for specific products.

    I can leave y'all with this screenshot I just took at least. haha

    Are these screenshots?

    A screenshot of a folder titled Operating Systems on one of my many drives. :D

    Lots of goodies in there, and so much more.

    Does it have source codes

    Are many of these OSes actually open source today?

    Not really, so I should probably hush. lol

    Hahaha, you really want that 1st position 😜😜😜

    I can always have a nice laptop in my blanket

    How many more computers you need in your data center. :p

    One can't have enough, for the home dc it requires too much money 😔😔 i think I should buy lotto ticket from US

    Send some rigs to me.

    I... MIGHT be retiring this ASRock Mobo with the Xeon from RackNerd soon, but it I'm not sure if it will suit your needs. Plus shipping might be more than it is worth!

    Not the shipping but the import duty :joy: our idiot officers are known to impose full 48% uty even on used goods clearly documented not for sale.

    How about getting a phone from gulf country? is it worth it? Like without the box, just phone?

    Had an accident 4 months back. My G8X was broken. Currently using one with broken screen and cameras. Want to upgrade to 24 ultra. But its damn costly here.

    if someone can bring it with them it's quite a breeze, just ask the person not to carry more than 2 smart phones.

    Thanks. Will try the option. Will be problem with the payments though. Have to check. Or have to settle for some iqoo or oneplus here.

    OnePlus' motto is "Never settle." You wanna settle?

    Fan of first OneplusOne mobile. Was an active member in forums as well. Later didn't like their way of going.. so we parted ways.

    Oh yah, they have gone downhill since Carl Pei left. Community is not given importance, only business does.

    I just started tinkering with anything and everything at a very young age, but I'd say tech is what really sparked it. Then I got older, my BMX bikes became a huge hobby, and then I got my first car. Etc etc. Just evolved

    if someone can bring it with them it's quite a breeze, just ask the person not to carry more than 2 smart phones.

    Thanks. Will try the option. Will be problem with the payments though. Have to check. Or have to settle for some iqoo or oneplus here.

    OnePlus' motto is "Never settle." You wanna settle?

    he is already well settled :joy:

    You mean in life? Very far away from settled. :D

    You should chase that laptop!

    TrK you're only allowed to pass me to 1st position not 2nd :D

    You got it boss 😀

    Hahaha, you really want that 1st position 😜😜😜

    I can always have a nice laptop in my blanket

    How many more computers you need in your data center. :p

    One can't have enough, for the home dc it requires too much money 😔😔 i think I should buy lotto ticket from US

    Send some rigs to me.

    I... MIGHT be retiring this ASRock Mobo with the Xeon from RackNerd soon, but it I'm not sure if it will suit your needs. Plus shipping might be more than it is worth!

    Not the shipping but the import duty :joy: our idiot officers are known to impose full 48% uty even on used goods clearly documented not for sale.

    why do you have a propane torch in server room? :joy:

    It's a garage, computers and cars kinda just mix for me. XD

    Oh, that makes sense then. What would say is right - your love for cars ignited the hardware tinkering spirit in you, or the other way round?

    I just started tinkering with anything and everything at a very young age, but I'd say tech is what really sparked it. Then I got older, my BMX bikes became a huge hobby, and then I got my first car. Etc etc. Just evolved

    That's the usual order. Me as well. I began with toys and then went on to computers. But, due to the lack of alternatives or rather to fund repairs incase of induced damage, I have alwasy stayed away from advanced tinkering, until recently.

    You can join us though....

    I'm a bit busy... Preping food for the Christmas Eve. Its 11:20 already here... Lunch, then lunch sleep for children, and afterwards driving to my parents place to have the dinner together.

    Starting January 2nd I should join the conversations, but now I have to skip a lot :(

    I hate it when my PC's don't heat in the winter! When I need them the most

    Oh, there are ancient ways for that.

    Overclocking?

    No, something very basic (yet foolish) - Remove thermal paste,

    that's ancient stuff dude, do you still have it?

    I think I lost it in 2015-ish due to a sketchy landlord basically stealing everything I owned and selling it on eBay, unfortunately.

    sed, i would have loved to see it up and running thats some collectible stuff for me

    I still collect old tech, but I lost a big chunk of really cool stuff to that guy. Unfortunate, but he's a well known slumlord and I knew the risks of taking that cheap apartment.

    damn, that guy sounds grumpy old man, i am not good with them.... but i hope you get to collect more and show them to me :wink:

    I've got some cool stuff yet, but a lot is in storage. I'll share what I can!

    waiting intensifies :joy: take your time we will be here for the entire month.

    1999 iBook

    Ridiculous collection of sealed Dell OEM copies of Windows 95

    Bonus picture of the inside of a GM 3100v6 just because I do a little of everything. :p

    send me one win95 :joy: or wait no i will just collect one sometime :joy:

    Win95, I would try it on a vm

    I am also a software hoarder, I might even have the leaked source for 95. :D

    Hehehe, show us

    I'll have to find where I put it! It's 3AM here so I'm gonna be slowing down. Plenty of time to show off all the neat stuff I have collected though, don't wanna do it all in one night!

    Yup, do it one comment at a time. That way, you can have more comments and we can also ask questions for specific products.

    I can leave y'all with this screenshot I just took at least. haha

    Are these screenshots?

    A screenshot of a folder titled Operating Systems on one of my many drives. :D

    Lots of goodies in there, and so much more.

    Does it have source codes

    Are many of these OSes actually open source today?

    Not really, so I should probably hush. lol

    Oh, I see. I thought they were just ISOs initially.

    Just looked, and what I shared is basically official images of every version of each one of those operating systems, so yeah I'm in the clear there. There was a leak of source at one time though...

    2025 - YEAR RACKNERD EXPANDS TO ASIA !!

    Who else is waiting for this?

    Hoping for some @dustinc magic for this.

    Me as well. What Asian location do you think would be best for us?

    Singapore, of course.
    More feasible for the provider (more options, hence cheaper), and you can get as low as 33ms to Chennai.

    that's cool, far better than what i get from my location.

    Oh, at my place it's 45ms. Still good enough.

    Based on my testings from Bangalore:
    SG - 40ms
    MY Johor - 43ms
    MY Kuala Lumpur - ~50ms
    ID - 55ms
    HK - 75ms
    JP - 100ms

    Oh, so, Japan has the highest pings? Didn't know this.

    yes.

    Make sense based on the geographical location.
