    I'm kinda busy helping get Christmas stuff set up but I'm gonna start digging through my archives of old tech for things to share as promised!

    I get it! Lots of stuff going on IRL at the moment. What kind of old tech things do you have? Theres a lot of cool treasure out there that just doesnt exist these days, I like looking through old tech to see where we came from compared to where we are now

    Last night I posted about my IBM ThinkPad 760E from ~1995, still boots Windows 95 with the original IBM 2.1GB HDD even.

    WOWWW, that's awesome man. Love seeing vintage tech, especially ThinkPads. The 760E was quite ahead of its time and built like a tank. The fact that the original HDD is still spinning is impressive too!

    Really appreciate you sharing this piece of history with us. Keep the pics coming :)

    If anyone else has some cool vintage tech to share, let's see it!

    I definitely have more to share, and will do so when I have some time!
    Working on a project today since we're actually doing our Christmas thing tomorrow.

    Hey @dustinc - each time you post an offer, you say that rDNS can be set in the panel when it actually can’t.

    Good catch, can confirm that when you try to set it, you get this pop-up.

    Yep, that's the messaging shown by SolusVM if the CIDR block does not support delegation. The good news is though, we always handle these requests very fast, usually within a few minutes :)

    That's true, if your support team responded any faster than they already do, they'd be answering tickets before they were even submitted! :p

  • When can we expect an official version of my "prototype?" :p @dustinc

    Thanked by 2xpress7 dustinc

    Whoever wins the PS5, are you planning to buy GTA 6 for it?

    I'll buy some fantasy game.

    Got any specific game in mind? Like Elden Ring?

    That sounds good. Will definitely buy the Witcher 4.

    Oh yah, Witcher games are generally good. Not into fantasy games, though. I have been a Naughty Dogs fan for long.

    Witcher 3 is just awesome. Became fan of it, and watched all the web series based on it.

    Oh yah, the one with Henry Cavill. I dunno I am not a fan of GoT and Witcher-like series.

    Withcer is good. GoT is another level. Thats different.

    Wanted to watch it on TV, but since it's in the living room, I can't. Parents aren't yet that progressive :lol:

    i usually watch everything on the monitor, the tv is for decoration :smile:

    I have to, as well. Some series with great story lines somehow feel compelled to add unwanted nudity.

    Xpress is coming up hot!

    Xpresso coffee!

    He is drinking it whole night, tonight!

    TrK as well.

    boy no coffee tonight... i might fall sleep earlier than my usual time....

    Yup, pulling an all nighter is no simple thing. You were awesome last night.

    more like i was forced to :joy: kidding we rarely get visitors and i tend to stick with them make them feel comfortable....

    That's great. Show them around the thread and give em a glimpse of the RackNerd spirit. Thank you for your service, dude.

    they left at 8AM and slept like four afters that :smile:

    How do you manage a whole day with just r hours of sleep. I can do that for 2 weeks maximum.

    habits, i was in ncr last month and we had meetings everyday in morning outside delhi, me and my friend couldn't get an ounce of sleep more like 56 hours....

    Oh I see. But, it's not good to do it for prolonged periods

    i drop dead when i see the bed so it's manageable and ofcourse if you getting married i will be there to cheer you for the entire night of the function :smile:

    That's the only time of the day in a man's life when they don't want a friend cheering em on :lol: Iykyk.
    I wanna stay a bachelor, btw.

    you are getting married? when? are we invited?

    Oh no. I'd rather have the red pfp than that.

    marriage isn't that scary believe me.... well express knows deeply about this subject...

    I'd rather not anyways :lol:
    Indian legal system around civil matters scares me more than marriage itself

    ever heard of equality? it's a myth :smile:

    Unfortunately, in India, even equality suffers from discrimination.

    No way! Time to flip some domains.

    Haven't received any offers atleast not good one's till yet. Hoslick did sent a $7 offer for the one in my sig 🙂

    Isn't that too low?

    Yeahh seems a bit low but depending on the cost, might be worth it! Now you need to a way to help flip these quickly automatically

    Yah, considering the fact that it has some good keywords within the domain name itself.

    xpress7 is cataching up to TrK let's see what happens

    You and I are closer to him in the rankings.

    I will catch up, after you all sleep. :p

    I'm not sleeping not for a few days

    LOL! I dunno whether to encourage you or tell you about the bad effects of losing sleep. :lol:

    Let him learn on his own.... :p

    Right. Experience is the best teacher.

    Yes.. He is a great teacher.. He taught me so many life lesssons.

    more than you better half?

    She is his daughter. :D

    you know what i am laughing like crazy on this one :joy:

    🤣🤣

    Oh man, I missed this gem. I am gonna screenshot this for later !

    Wait im lost, who is whos daughter!? Whaat

    He was teasing his wife saying, experience is the teacher and his wife is experience's daughter personified.

    Now I understand. Thanks

    Yah, being a married man makes him qualified to throw around jokes related to marriage and wives.

    Yep just like marriage is a funeral rather than a wedding ;) Jk

    LOL! Yah, funeral of freedom and liberty.

    TrK wants that laptop really bad! Rooting for all of you guys.

    We are going to be watching this duel for the laptop for days to come!

    Might get brutal. But, Ig, it's all fair and we all are friends here, I believe.

    lets keep it friendly though! I'll bring the popcorn

    I am in.

    What kind are you bringing? I got kettle curb

    Not a popcorn guy. Chicken wings okay?

    Yep that sounds great to me! Garlic parmesean or BBQ Please!

    Anything. I just like em plain roasted. Ever had tandoori before BTW?

    Woah. TrK went crazy. Wonder why he stopped at 930. 70 more and he would have hit 1k in a day.

    Good mornig noob

    Good morning, dude. Good to see you in your energetic form. Keep going.

    I said good morning like 1 hour ago.. :p

    Sorry, bro. had to cover comments from 125 to 150+!

    Noob I'm fully convinced you're not leaving us

    And, I am fully convinced, I am gonna keep that impression up till 31 December. Moreover, you need to compete with TrK, not me.

    I think its Jan 31 though right? It doesnt end Dec 31 so we have quite a ways to go sstill. Gotta hang in there for quite some time

    Yup, you must. More than a month. A lot could happen in that time. Keep hanging.

    I don't get, did you guys not sleep?

    I slept for full 7 hours or so. Many didn't Ig.

    Thats a decent amount. I think 8 is the recommendation though. I typically only hit 6 on average though, just way to much always going on to get the recommeneded hours. Feels like wasted time too

    Yah, when the BF thread began I was getting 4 or lesser hours of sleep on a daily basis for a few weeks straight. Currently, trying to get back to a healthier schedule.

    @noob404 said:
    Man, 40 pages to 200. 200 pages in 2 days is crazy!

    Is that really what we hit? I feel like this thread has been around much longer at this point. You guys are doing work!

    Yah, that illusion is easy to mistake, cause, 200 pages in 2 days hasn't been done before, if I am not wrong.

    top competitor for the laptop is TrK

    TRK PULLS AHEAD! CAN HE MAINTAIN HIS LEAD? ONLY TIME WILL TELL! STAY TUNED AS THE ACTION CONITNUES!

    He can. He has both the experience and the time needed for it.

    True, look how dar he has come

    He has come really far.

    Indeed.

    Nothing new for him. For you as well.

    But it's pretty good, we're seeing this on first days of event imagine on the last few days

    Oh, it's gonna get absolutely crazy then

    Yeah very crazy, when competition is going to be just a few comments away

    Don't think so. TrK is soon gonna put a huge gap. I am gonna be inactive as well.

    I dont know, everyone is giving him a run for his money and it shows no signs of slowing down yet!

    Oh no. Don't hope for it to slow down. We want the thread hyped for as long as possible. So, hype and activity is good, imo.

    Noob404 going to hit that 700 mark

    Do we think noob is going to be the one to rocket to the top again? The commitment is undeniable

    He said he won't be competing but never too sure

    He seems pretty high up there to not be competing though, eh? :)

    yea..... sheesh @noob404 are you competing or not XD

    Competing till 31st December. From Jan 1, I'll let nature take its course.

    It only runs until dec 31st? not as long as i thought

    Nah, I meant I won't be active starting 1st Jan. The giveaway goes on till 31st Jan. So, rake your numbers in.

    Ah, why wont you be around as much this time around? You've been keeping up pretty good. Still getting some big numbers up til jan 1st may be all you need but anything can change

    Actually, I got some work that I have been procrastinating on for the longest time for. This work, mainly studies, could decide the year for me, or maybe my life. I wanna be able to come back to the BF 2025 thread. So, making sure that happens. But, that does mean, I will have to be mostly inactive on the NY thread starting Jan 1.

    I never said I'm getting the lappy :)

    wait you did, i am sure of it :joy:

    I told you to pass me to 1st position :)

    ohhh and i did that exactly :joy:

    You are on fire today.

    ching Schezwan rocket :joy:

    That's what fuels you?

    I was under the impression he was fueled by copious amounts of coffee

    Not a coffee drinker personally. Prefer tea.

    tea is good as well

    Tea is my regular drink, but, won't ever say no to a good cup of coffee.

    Both have a place in my diet

    Have both on a daily basis?

    Yeah! I'll usually start my monrings with some strong coffee and then switch over to a cup or 2 of tea to help sustain for the rest of the day.

    Will have to try this strategy as well. I used to be a heavy coffee drinker. But, stopped when my body became tolerant to it, such that I would feel sleepy on drinking coffee.

    So many comments 😂

    People just have so many things to say in the rack nerd thread! so many exciting things going on here

    Indeed, this is the craziest thread so far in the history

    RackNerd threads generally have a habit of leaving past records in dust.

    This one is setting fire!

    Hope LET is ready for the fire hazard.

    If anything these threads are a good stress test for the capabilities of their servers

    Lol. Yes they are. Hope the staff take it as such.

    It seems like we made it this far. I wonder if any adjustments were made

    Usually around the holiday season, LET's droplet is upgraded and when all the craziness is done, they revert it.

    Interesting, so they are always ready for this time of the year and all the demand it brings

    Oh yah. I posed this question - https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/192328/is-let-hosted-on-a-dedicated-server

    ha i like that first comment, hosted on a dedicated potato toaster :) The UI sure seems to atch that thought :) Its a great site though, lots of good content and thats what matters

    Yah, LETians are known for sarcasm. But, yes, it's a great site. The only thing is, it took me several years to find it. I can't even bring myself to think about all the deals I missed all these years.

    most fun i had in a thread in a while

    I can see you are having fun. Please continue.

    yep! most i have had in a while in these threads, lots of action here

    Yup, if you have a specific prize in mind, this is the perfect time to put the work in to secure it.

    Doing my best for that right now but every one battling for that laptop is making it hard! I hope the thread dies down a bit (for my sake) but thats a bit disregading to the community to say that! We need to keep the party going!

    I understand what you are going through. But, let's not forget that all of this is being made possible by RackNerd and Dustin. I personally feel, the hype we create on the thread is our small way of showing appreciation for everything that they do.

    Good catch, can confirm that when you try to set it, you get this pop-up.

    If I am not wrong, on RackNerd, you could add rDNS entries using the panel at some point of time. But, then they shifted to addition via ticket. But, trust me. They are super quick. I once had a PTR record added in a record time time of 3 minutes once the ticket was sent. So, most of us won't even see the difference. Funny thing is many hosts that charge much more than RackNerd have completely disabled the ability to add rDNS records and even blocked port 25.

    How much do you end up spending annually just on renewals?

    don't remember it's close to 40-50K

    Damn. That's a huge amount. Are you making enough from these domains to be able to afford that?

    the answer is i don't know...... there are times i just get enough from a single domain sale but it's not stable :smile:

    Oh I see. You flip many of them. That's good

    ah i misread that eariler. I see, sounds like you got a good thing going

    Yah, but, he does warn that it's not stable income. Depends on multiple factors.

    The gamble seems to be paying off so far though. With costs that high you gotta bring in the revenue

    Absolutely. Oh BTW, when he said, 40-50K, he prolly meant Indian Rupee, not USD.

    LOL ok that makes more sense now, i thought TrK was living the good life :)

    :lol: He prolly is living the good life. But, $40-50K on domains alone would be crazy.

    Lol! You have to worker mucher harder.

    yeah hard work will pay off greatly here!

    Sure. I am living proof. And, so are many others active here.

    yes an inspiration in the black friday thread and even now

    On the NY 2024 thread, we had a lot of haters though, dud to the constant quote and facts posting. This is much more fun though.

    Yeah i heard all about that fiasco, that doesnt sound like much fun. Much more fun to engage in the conversation rather than copy paste quotes or pictures over and over again!

    In retrospect, it wasn't much fun, because I had much more fun during the random conversations with Frank and others in between the incessant copy pasting.

    Dude, got any more interesting pictures to share?

    Was just thinking it might be time for that! I'll see what I have to share tonight!

    Share cat pictures!

    This I can do as well!

    This is Gus, I call him Gus Bus. He has a head full of rocks. :p

    Wow! What a cute kitty

    Copper and Kitten doin' a big ol' cuddle.
    Took Copper in as a stray.

    Awesome. How many are you fostering right now?

    I actually have 4 where I am staying temporarily, but my kitties are staying with family rn.

    That's awesome. Having a pet has therapeutic benefits as well. I don't understand people who hate dogs and cats.

    Indeed it does! I bet it comes more from the mess or the amount of work a pet can add to your life. It is definitly not a free ride but has its benefits. I think the pros far outweight the cons

    It does work as a very good dsitraction at first, trainign them and such. But, soon, they start to understand your feelings much better than any human ever could.

    I could use some sleep myself. Too much to do though and so little time

    That's the human curse I guess. I sometimes feel there shoulda been 48 hours in a day.

    it would be nice to have more time in a day. Its very limited and never seems to be enough

    Yah, but, blame it on the Earth.

    Not just the earth but the whole arrangement of the solar system as well!

    Yah, infact, yes. Pardon me for that geographical error.

    Yup. I am gonna leave you to it. Gonna sleep in like 5 minutes. Typing with one eye open right now

    One eye is all you need! though 2 makes it much easier

    Yah, it's easier for my optic nerves to make sense of the data when I have both of my eyes open though :lol:

    makes sense, more lines for processing input

    Yah, infact, our brain was designed in such a way to enable it to make sense of an image by combining the images from both our eyes.

    That makes me think... if people are born with vision in only a single eye, or even a single eye for that matter.. are they able to adjust to just the single eye where its effectively just as good as having 2 eyes?

    I believe people born with one eye can see images, but they are slightly distorted to a side. Close an eye and look at a point. Now, repeat with the other eye. You will notice a slight change in position.
