    If any issues on the Dedi let us know via a ticket and it can get adjusted for you. I'll have someone manually adjust what we see right now as well.

    Great! @PureVoltage made it recurring!!!! I feel so good in the morning

    How can you tell if it's recurring? I grabbed one, too.

    If you go to the client portal > Dedicated > open your order, it should show this:

    Recurring Amount
    $120.00 USD
    

    Awesome! It's already recurring for me!

  • I got to 16 on my last try, then my alarm that my fries were done went off and distracted me. Oh well.

    I kinda expected there will be more providers offering some ad-hoc flash in this thread - but I was wrong :(

    I'm both happy and sad, on one hand I'm saving money. On the other hand it's given me time to reflect and wonder why I've got as many as I do in the first place.

    Ya I guess that's a good strats, time for me to reflect my life choices

    No no no, not life choices. That's a deep dark bottomless pit I'll never pull myself out of.
    Simple things, like, why do I have (looks at spreadsheet) 10 dedicated servers mostly idling.

    Ya that's still not bad, I am just sad there's no new deal I can add into the sheet this BF yet

    Snagged, could be interesting for some low-cost storage!

  • @AlexPads Whats the difference between hot & cold? Is it just cache/separate S3?

  • YOLO, just bought the max config anyway since $4.5/mo for 5TB+100GB of S3 w/ unlimited egress is quite cheap.

    I kinda expected there will be more providers offering some ad-hoc flash in this thread - but I was wrong :(

    What I can gather so far in term some excitement (in no specific order, just what I remember)

    1. AxusHost - @djunior - that teaser setup the FOMO (yes the same deal was available later but with that easter egg of a coupon surely there must be some appreciation for them!). It began here
    2. HostBilby - @bingobangobongo - has been very enthusiastic in lots of spontaneous stuff in this thread and surely they need to be appreciated for all the good will (and free RAM/Upgrades that they've thrown in?).
    3. NaranjaTech - @naranjatech - as is typical of them, they announce a bunch of somewhat similar (but well priced, good value) deals. I think the network glitch issue (fixed yet?) has been a dampener in the buying side. One deal that really stood out though was this.
    4. Pulsed Media - while seedboxes aren't exactly the mainstay here, I think there was some buzz with his posts and some of the deals were pretty exciting and popular. @PulsedMedia
    5. VeloxMedia - @itsTomHarper - for some fun contests, hunts and giveaways.
    6. Zappie Host - @Zappie - for what must be a record /24 offer and some of the buzz around it (plus the non-profit clause to really help out the hobbyists here).

    I think @SolidVPS has also done some spontaneous stuff based on requests here (may not be in this thread as such?). There are of course other hosts who have done their bit for BF/CM in their own threads - so I don't want to mention them here as such.

    This is just a rough list (so by no means "exhaustive") just based on the times I've been active here and following.

    I'm sure there'll be more opinions from others and I hope we can also appreciate what some providers have done from their part to liven up this thread.

    I hope people will add their own opinions as well.

    As always... to the rest of the LETers for keeping things going and chugging along even when things do go slow.

    Sneak peak for those following the BF thread, but I desperately need to cull some of these :cold_sweat:

  • After reading the code I understood why I died :'(

    The game loop updates every 100ms, so if you move faster than that, oops!

    Also it didn't account for the moving tail

    Black Friday megathread deep dives!

    one of the deep dive videos, @FAT32 will sure find this interesting :)
    This is based on multiple deep researches, is non-curated, non-moderated and YMMV, no warranties, no guarantees. It may or may not be correct, take it as you will. Fully AI generated. Does not represent PulsedMedia as a company.

    Videos

    Video 1

    The content prompts was:
    "Overview of the event of the community participants, end customer, LowEndTalk forum person targeted. No basics recappping or terminology, the deeper meaning and overview how the event has gone."


    Video 2 - Biased AF

    Now this is biased and specific to us, content prompt:
    "Overview of the event of the community participants, end customer, LowEndTalk forum person targeted. No basics recappping or terminology, the deeper meaning and overview how the event has gone.
    Make focus on Pulsed Media"

    So same as above, but focus on Pulsed Media (us).

    Howie Did It

    Data sources

    They are at minimun 15-17hrs old, so like everything for last 80 pages is missing.
    Oldest data sources are probably around 35hrs old.

    So not everything is contained, as no live data source is kept. Will refresh at somepoint, but AI being AI, content bias will likely remain on the earlier posts since they repeat on the source material multiple times.

    Data acquirement

    ChatGPT, Perplexity, Grok, Gemini deep research with various prompts, just collecting offers at first, then memes, specific type of offers and analysis of them, and then collating data on the providers themselves.
    Multiple types of prompts etc. and some later deep researches uses the earlier deep research as source material etc.

    Feed all of this in NotebookLM on a paid plan (free has cap of 30 sources or so, basic cheap paid has 300 source cap), and prompt multiple times.

    Questions and Suggestions?

    Want specific deep dives or infographics? Ask.
    I might get to it eventually.

    THE BIG DISCLAIMER

    Don't sue us bro, ok? This is what the LLM gave us, and apart from asking to focus on Pulsed Media, or specific segments did the best to limit bias. But being a human, i am biased AF, so take a truckload of salt with anything posted from this.
