    Would love some bandwidth, thank you!

    Order Number: 3787476350

    I don't have the order no for this one, but this is the hostname on WHCMS: racknerd-aa26ee5

    Oh, completely forgot to add mine. Thanks for reminding.

    I forgot mine. I have to post them in BF thread.

    Post em here itself. It should be fine, Ig.

    IIRC, when some people posted for double b/w , dustin tells them this is different promo. I've seen that many times in old threads.

    ah that would stink. Would be disappointed if i forgot to claim my BF bandwidth offers

  • TrKTrK Member

    @markz said: yeah. i missed out on a lot of great deals on BF this year

    and we couldn't get any flash sales either, all were scraped by bots i believe...

    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?

    I didnt realize phpmyadmin had a database built into ti

    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.

    who makes praho? is that another brand of mini pc?

    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.

    What is HH? another vendor? why would anyone use anything but racknerd at this point?

    Yah, have it bookmarked. Keep checking its price from time to time.

    theres some plugins that can help track prices if you arent aware. May help you in your cause

    Ddin't get you. Postgres is db, and phpmyadmin is just an web based admin tool to access db.

    that explains it. I was confused a bit because i am not familiar with phpmyadmin

    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/

    very cool. Looking into this now. May try it out on my next home box setup

    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?

    I think he is sharing it with his friends it sounds like so need to see what they need

  • orangejooseorangejoose Member

    Has anyone here tried the Framework brand of laptops? I’m considering buying one, and I’ve heard their components are easily replaceable. Just wanted to get some feedback before making a decision!

    Just realised, they even got one for WebOS. So, if you got a recent LG TV, you are set there as well.

    whoa thats really neat. So you can use this to flash new OS onto televisions even?

    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.

    Also a cost to using something new that you dont use all the time!
