the eu must die so that europe can live!
counter-speech. switzerland would be supreme.

Negatively valued customer. Your data will be somd to the highest bidder.
Both are excellent facilities, Nikhef is a bit of a different beast since it's not really a place you put servers. Network gear only. Iron Mtn is very nice, I used to have a huge footprint there. Some halls have issues (rust used to be an issue in some which is not great) but overall it's fine. I wouldn't do a new deployment there at the moment though, their power pricing is insane since they're focusing on large customers more now. Digital Realty is probably your best overall bet for a facility in NL at this time.

Thanks, i'll ping these to Akash. If you have others we can see if there's a trail. Another host reported a large increase of spammers from Ukraine on the LET discord so I'm wondering if its' the same gang.

NorthC is what I have a quote for Crane at. Solid offer, Tamer from Hybula has offered us some bandwidth as well. Crane has much different bandwidth needs so it's hard to justify us pulling our own transit at the moment.
Francisco
Wait, no more Francisco at BuyVM?? Sorry tldr
Tldr: Fran stays with BuyVM, he just got pretty rich
Oh. Well shit. @Francisco congratulations then 😆 Glad all is well
Appreciate the insight, @fluffernutter .
Surprised you ranked Digital Realty higher, at my last job their UK Docklands was not so great, very late responses (server reboot requests +7 hours) on tickets and strange intermittent networking issues (very high packet loss at low peak times, frequently). Is their NL one you used any better?
@Francisco
Suggestions for other locations:
1. Portugal. Why: why not.
In orbit. Why: Free power 24/7 using solar. Could rent transit from the new sat providers.
France. Why: Because France is technically in South America. Also in the Caribbean and elsewhere. Fibre routes to elsewhere would be an issue. DC's may be a hut on an island. But technically still in France.
Docklands is sort of its own thing, it's a bit weird. DRT doesn't really build facilities, they buy existing ones and retrofit and occasionally replace staff. Depending on which facility you get, you'll either have a fantastic time or a really bad one. Their NL stuff is generally decent across the board. When it comes to the DC blend itself, I never use that for anything beyond basic out of band stuff. I haven't noticed those issues in any of the DRT locations I'm in though.
hello @Francisco
i have a namecrane (nc) cPanel Shared Hosting package and a current credit balance (waiting for cranemail europe (ch or nl or de, mainly europe)) with namecrane.
this all remains untouched, right? does the sale to cloudzy.io affect my nc shared hosting and credit?
(I can already guess the answer, but I would just like to have it confirmed by you, thank you!)
NameCrane is a completely separate business. Whatever goes on with BuyVM won't change things at NC.
Got some pretty decent quotes out of CH
Lets see where it goes.
Francisco
congrats, and farewell, thanks for the good service in Luxembourg, I won't renew after moved to .NL
I hope Cloudzy supports private networking like Buyvm does.
Fran said none of the existing BuyVM features would go away. I was concerned about this too since we rely on their features like BGP, anycast, private networking and their splintered networking for some things.
Aside from Luxembourg moving, all features seem to be staying the same and with Fran on board I'd imagine that all the existing features will also be available in wherever Lux is moved to.
@Francisco , is that correct?
all say the same and after 1 year, SURPISE ! they shutdow the business
So, do we have any other viable alternatives for Luxembourg expect G-Core?
Based. +1
I remember reading that Luxembourg is relocating. If I buy this now, what will happen in a few months...?
dude...
A ballistic missile will land on your house and completely nuke it to the ground
It will become ideally a Swiss based 512MB, or worst case, a Netherlands based 512MB. The plan won't be lost, terminated, or anything like that.
BuyVM will lose no features, it will only gain in this all.
As for Cloudzy, they've been working on adding private lans to their product for the last bit. They showed a lot of interest in integrating (or mimicking) a lot of the features Stallion has into their own offerings.
Francisco
@Francisco what about my idea to setup a Lux subsidiary to be able to move back to Root? Do you know what their stance on this would be?
I thought it was a genius plan myself.
>
From what I saw of the cameras/videos they took, it looked like they closed the whole suite. They don't have as many staff as they used to and I question how much longer root.lu will be a thing before it merges with their parent brand.
Francisco
I'm not sure why Cloudzy would buy the brand, pay as much as they have... to yeet it out the door.
He's putting up the cash to buy all new hardware and ship it to the facility, and then he'll do ... something? with the 3900x's/5900x's.
I'm assuming you're taking a swipe at Inception, but the VPS/cloud market is their bread/butter.
