THE WINNER OF THE GIVEAWAY PACKAGE #1 RE-SPIN IS:

Congrats @harrison. Please DM me for further instructions.

Thanks @0webhost for the giveaway!

Wow! Thank you so much!
Can I ask a couple of questions? Is "shared hosting" used for php-based websites like WordPress? It seems other tech stacks like Python or node are supported. Are other languages supported to (like a docker deployment)?

Yeah. For other stacks you've to ask the provider if they support them

Generally, when shared-hosting providers talk about number of CPU cores or RAM of a plan, it's the resources shared by all people on the node, right? Otherwise it wouldn't differ much from a VPS

Yeah that's the available resources for your package. For example: WP or PHP, you can configure them to utilise the allocated amount of RAM depending on your application's needs.

I haven't got round to it yet, but my plan is to virtualise my windows on my new machine, passing through igpu, one of the 2 network ports (plus a virtual net so it can talk to other vms), TPM plus WiFi, one of the nvme and hopefully also a USB bridge.

The general idea was so that the VM was as close as possible to bare metal so I could dual boot into either windows or windows+VMs and have windows think the hardware was essentially unchanged when in VM apart from a couple of devices missing.

But no idea how that's going to work out yet.

You can passthrough maybe anything. I'm not sure about integrity of hardware in KVM virtualisation. You can fake it, passthrough it, even bypass some anticheat. I don't know how to make virtualisation identical to bare metal and that's probably the one of the only problems you may have.

Another problem is stability. I'm unsure if the KVM layer can make sure your virtualised computer can run as well as it does on bare metal.

@barbaros said: Interesting mount point

It's what was specified in their setup guide.

https://host-c.com/knowledgebase/1/VPS-Storage-add-on-secondary-drive.html

Always add the drive using UUID in /etc/fstab

Create a GPT partition table, not MBR. MBR has a limit of 2TB

Format the new drive with XFS file system not EXT4. DO NOT USE ZFS in VPS!

Mount the drive in /mnt/XXTB-disk0Y, XX representing the size of the drive and y the number, as you might have 1,2 or more.

@Saragoldfarb @lovelyserver what are you using to generate those images?

Openart.ai

Only downside... Whenever you give a naughty prompt, you'll get an nsfw warning

how come you dont use midjourney and the likes? Much better. But no NSFW I'm assuming?

Although now that I'm reading it again, I realized I messed up.

Mount the drive in /mnt/XXTB-disk0Y, XX representing the size of the drive and y the number, as you might have 1,2 or more.

It should have been:
/mnt/1TB-disk01

Not:
/mnt/1TB-disk1

It's 0Y. Amazing, it still works!

You can use any name no? I would go with /mnt/boobs

samm · December 2024

@david said: It should have been:

Is that mandatory? I simply mounted at /mnt/data. I transferred data to that mount point and seems to be working.

They completely removed it afaik. You can do ambiguous prompts to get the results but it isn't supported anymore

Nope it can be named anything, I imagine it helps the drive to be identified if any issues happen that @host_c needs to look at

I'm sure you can mount it however you like. Their instructions seemed well-reasoned, though, in case you have multiple disks later. I'm not sure these special deals can be upgraded with similar pricing, though.
