    Apparently DigiRDP will release new deals today... But honestly I don't think they will be storage ones

    where do you find the digirdp deals at? They were the ones with like a <$5 vps deal right?

    In their discussion thread and you might want to signup prior to grab the deals

    Yeah it's impossible to get without it because it's so fast to run out

    even faster than the RN flash sales? Those were gone instantly. I got one from RN which as i later found out is a really really hard thing to do

    Idk but it's fast bro

    Its faster than everything hell even if you successfully put the promo code the price changes during the payment process

    this thread will be a good warmup for my fingers so they are ready to rock for the deal

    Also if you grab 2 of them or uninterested in any sub 5-7 usd deal please pm I just can't seem to grab any of them

    will do. I usually go for all RN give aways as well then just hand out what i end up changing my mind on. Gave a couple away last time

    If there's any storage deals you know what to do...

    Well for me just some credits will suffice just imagine having a vps so cheap or just for free and like you can then depend on it currently planning to self host my own git maybe and also design my portfolio so I start getting some work :smile:

    dont forget you always have the option to idle it as well!

    I know but I don't want to do that so I actually passed on so many nice deals one was like 4 usd vps from kurait also one from hostsailor I believe I just want something for the long run either really cheap or free. So, lets see what I get :smile:

    Ballantine's good, will see if I my friend can get his hands on ardberg. Thanks for the tip :wink:

    atleast i finish customer's one.... :joy:

    Customer projects.. Simple solution that works..
    Personal Project... Overly complicating every small thing to get the best out of it..

    Personal project - also never complete :)

    Because its not the best version.

    All the talk of local compilation just reminded me, I once compiled Batocera from source on my i5-5250u. Took 5 days!

    thats obsurd! Any reason why you compiled rather than just got a built distribution of it? Are you hacking on linux kernels now too?

    Was compiling it for the PS4, so, it did require many modifications.

    WTH what are you guys here I thought you were just talking about little bit of programming but you all are taking it to the next level :lol:

    I been into PS4 Linux for some years now.

    I too want credits man like It would fund vps's if for instance even 100usd :lol: it would be good for 10 years :smile:

    You can easily convert your win's price value from trh main prize pool to RackNerd credits

    Yeah, I know that it's just that first of all I need to win :lol: lets just hope for the best for now................................................. :smile: :smiley:

    Sure, dude. Stay active and you won't regret it.

    Yeah, lets see btw why is dustinc not visible didn't see him yesterday and even today too

    Let's not forget the he's the CEO of RackNerd and that it's still the holiday season, being one of the busiest times for them. So, he might be extremely busy. But rest assured. He will be here with many GAs. Hope you can hang around till and each time it happens.

    Yeah man I completely forgot about it, It was just that he responds on each and every thread so that's why I was curious and got my answers too.

    Part of being CEO i guess. Doe a little of it all including marketing and support

    Oh yes, he does it all. That reminds me, has anyone here used the Pomodoro technique and found it efficient?

    That just means also adding breaks right? I use a timer to make sure i get up on periodic intervals. Its good for your health

    E er noticed it increasing your productivity?

    scraping html from residential connection, if you are into nodejs cheerio is a good start.

    My vps is basically idle at the moment.

    The only VPS you have?

    Yes

    Waiting for a good project to make good use of the VPS?

    Yeah. I just don't know what to code.
    My wayback machine project is fun, but if i would actually deploy it, it would require a lot of storage. And i primarily make it to learn more about web crawling and puppeteer.

    Oh that's cool. Yah, wayback machine would require a hell lot of storage.

    Well one thing that is different than the WA, is that i only save full-page screenshots instead of the whole page with all the assets.

    Oh so a waybackscreenshots. Sounds coolm.in that case you could compress the images using various tools. Infact, @TrK is working on a commercial image optimisation CDN that might be of help for your project

    Yeah average image size is currently around 25-100 kb. Small pages are around 25-50 kb, while large pages can easily reach 300 kb.

    You can bring them down a bit more.

    How? I am currently using the avif image format.

    I am not sure right now. But, I did work on this a few years ago. BTW, how are you compressing currently?

    First, the page screenshot is using png, then i compress to webp and then i compress that webp image to avif, but this only saves like 5-30 kb at the moment. Also the avif compression takes like 30 seconds.
    I am using the nodejs sharp library. I will send my code soon.

    That's quite impressive. Just to test though, try running the original image through tinypng.com and see if you are already able to get it a lower size than your final compressed image, if you haven't already. Just to confirm.

    Will try that. Don't have my laptop with me at the moment.

    Sure, let me know when you have. I am interested in this as well

    Oh by the way, the crawler already has added 800k urls in the db. About 5 of them are actually screenshotted (as that part is still work in progress).

    Oh I see. The crawler coded in Node as well?

    He should try rust :)

    Heard good things of Rust as well.

    Yes 😅

    Oh so you are a Node head. I love PHP. Want to learn something new. Confused between Python and Node.

    I would say python seems like a "better" thing for this but really all languages are capable of doing almots anything now with the amount of libraries they have

    Yah, also heard that with PHP8.3, PHP has gotten really fast and better. So, maybe I should stick with PHP and better my knowledge of it.
