    Hey Dustin, can I have double bandwidth on this order?

    Number: 9479995322

    Thank you.

    You bought a new server this season?

    $850 RackNerd credits, dude! Remember?

    Yup. I am wondering what you bought. I thought you will take some time to decide what to do

    Nah, got friends lined up to buy stuff as well. I wanted to try something good and saw my chance right here.

    Just tell us what you bought. A dedi?

    Nah, not yet, just a Ryzen VPS fo a few months to test stuff out. Friends planning to get a few dedis.

    define few...... :joy:

    2 months. Will go annual, if everything works as expected.

    man i am setting up a DB server on a lsw vps1 seems fine for now let's see how it unfolds :)

    MariaDB?

    A single server for mariadb + postgres, with couple of DBs ranging from 400mb to 1gig

    You already have that much of data? existing project?

    yeah have to move around bunch of stuff and fix some issues with nginx fastcgi

    Postgres seems much more lightweight than PHPMyAdmin. Gotta try it out someday.

    postgrest and mariadb both are different, my use case mostly goes with mariadb postgres for some js stuff where i don't need that much of data unlike mariadb.

    Oh, I used to think Postgres was a PHPMyadmin alternative. Isn't it a client rather than a server?

    yeah postgresql it's a db server :smile:

    Didn't know this. Thank you.

    always happy to help, there are other db servers as well, typically monogodb and postgres are more flexible than mariadb and can scale better for me mariadb is serving just too much of my infra.... don't have time or patience to migrate everything over.

    Me as well. Moved to MariaDB a few years ago from MySQL. Stayed with it, cause it serves my purposes well, and is slightly faster than MySQL in some cases. Will have to try Postgres one of these days.

    you will instantly notice the difference specially since postgres supports much more indexing types than mariadb and of course the scalability....

    Today, had another great support experience, courtesy of the RackNerd customer support team. I don't know if they have an internal mechanism to monitor response times, but, I am still amazed by their quick response times. And, it makes me wonder why those big corporations with all that money, charging 4x prices than RackNerd can't provide quick support. Gonna stick with RackNerd for life now !

    May be RackNerd have their own support AI :p

    True, support is the main thing most companies fail to deliver.

    Yah. They somehow overcharge and fail to deliver the bare minimum in terms of after sales support. Don't understand what their strategy is.

    I've seen them. Some people are fighting in HH thread as well about support.

    Pardon me what's HH?

    Another premium provider here.

    Where's everybody. let's bring the RackNerd Christmas spirit to the thread now!!

    Everyone celebrating the festival I think.

    Makes sense. Got any plans for Christmas?

    No plans. Working currently. :(

    BTW, whatever happened of your Jellyfin plans. Had the time to try it yet?

    Not yet. Those are for NewYear, i will start working on it after 31st.

    Oh ok. Ping me if you face any issues.

    Sure. Are you using it currently?

    Yup. On my Android box. But, planning to get an SSD for it soon.

    SSD will definitely improve the experience. Can your android box handle the streaming

    I'd actually recommend an SBC or even a slightly more powerful Android box than a VPS if you plan on setting up a Jellyfin server.

    that praho mini series is quite good for this use case. or just get yourself some old dell/hp/lenovo tiny clients.

    You have plenty on your home lab, right?

    got only one tiny client and that's from lenovo rocking i5-4570t.

    Oh yes, for that, I use their official clients, which disables transcoding on the Android box. If I do transcode, it's always 100% CPU usage on the Box with constant buffering.

    Ok, so transcoding may not work with the 2 core setup then. They have Android client as well?

    Oh yes, they got official and some unofficial forks with added features, for virtually every OS. here it is https://jellyfin.org/downloads/

    The holidays are hard for some people.

    I've personally carried too many caskets.

    Sorry, I got a little heavy there.

    Hi @BlazinDimes -- Your dedication to helping others through difficult times is truly inspiring. Those late night calls you take, the lives you touch - that's making a real difference. Never apologize for sharing something meaningful like this.

    The holiday season indeed hits different for many. Your strength in not only overcoming, but now extending your hand to help others up - that's powerful. Thank You for being there for those who need it most ❤️
