Honestly, what's your personal answer to this question?
- Mine, for configuring a VPN.

Idling. What else?
psychologically reasonable
Serious answer, to host some opensource projects to increase the quality of life.
More or less like in https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/210492/what-are-you-self-hosting-october-2025-edition
Although still, some of them are just idling 😂
Idling , VPN , hosting a few personal projects, i guess that's why we're at LET🙂
Yeah, I'm reading that post and various new windows are opening in front of me!
tnx buddy

A high number of small VPSes can be put to use on DN42 (LARP the Internet).
Idle
To scan the entire internet, host my website, and get mobile internet for free
whats this mean?
I know a few folks are idling dedicated serverd
And yeah to buy to flex
I need to collect them all before someone else does. Also for random dev projects
I bet you're a hoot at parties.
Certain mobile ISPs zero-rate traffic associated with specific SNIs, which typically includes the carrier's own applications, partnered services, or captive portals. It's technically possible to relay your whole Internet traffic disguised under these SNIs using protocols like Xray REALITY running on your VPS.
*Such practice is strongly discouraged. It may constitute theft of service, particularly if data usage becomes abnormally high, and could result in legal consequences.
Pretty neat
I'm sorry for that.
Yeah
You betcha
what else to do with a couple of LE-Bs?
Same reason I buy dedis... idling.
Gibe them to me
Its important to keep hope alive. Someday you might achieve true happiness.
