    THE NEVER ENDING BANDWIDTH REQUESTS, PART OF THE NEVER ENDING SAGA OF RACKNERD THREADS!

    To be honest, it does really kill the conversation in the thread though as massive blocks like that. I just woke up to 30 pages of "we've doubled your blah" and after 3 pages, there's no way I'm reading the rest to see what anyone else might have written.

    Frankly though, we are used to it. And, we kinda feel good to know that there are more people joining the double bandwidth gang. I get your opinion though.
    BTW, welcome back to the RackNerd threads. It was fun to have you last year as well.

    It serves its purpose I guess

    Yup, it does, hype, sales, flash sales, giveaways and a hell lotta fun!

    Inam as of now. Hbu?

    Welcome back

    Thanks buddy. Today was hectic. Was out of home most of the day.

    I just got home. Some time to check let, 200+! notifications, this thread and 2K new on Megathread. Seriously...

    I used to be a member on almost all RN threads for the past 2 years. My personal top record on waking up after clearing notifications was around 150 iirc.

  • Hello I would like to double the bandwidth

    I feel like requesting Dustin so that we have the chef for 2 days next year. If we can make some noise right now, maybe Dustin could plan something like that for next year, in advance.
    But, imo, the deals on RackNerd BF page are still good as well. Or, were you looking for a specific location or something?

    What's the biggest bang for your buck in your opinion. Looking to get something.

    Depends on your use purpose. But, imo (please take it with a pinch of salt, cause I am a beginner compared to you guys), the Ryzen 7950X offerings from RackNerd are just great.
    I have tried stress testing them with multiple concurrent MYSQL and Nginx requests to see if they crash. It handled the requests like a boss compared to a similarly specced Intel VPS.
    I am also an AMD fanboy (when it comes to their APU/CPU). So, there could be a bit of bias there as well.

  • BTW, anyone have experience with making website for medical field clients? Have got a project from an indirect friend. Could turn out to be huge. Any general pointers while dealing with these guys?

    upgrades, beeing there for the party
    won 1 server and i gave me friend (dont need more, else would just buy one)

    also mainly megathread... there are few providers i want to try and few services that rn does not offer (hdd, spicy locations or simly 1€/y deals)

    rn is great, just i dont keep all my eggs in 1 basket (this includes any other provider and my home servers)

    during christmas might finally make a blog/page that will include provider rewievs...

    That would be cool. What I like about RN is that's it's pretty stable and support is fast. Got services with maybe 30 providers or so though.

  • Woah, I just noticed something. the thread is already at 1.6M views. At this pace we could reach 2M views much sooner than I had initially expected. Let's go!

    I understand. There was 1 resource upgrade giveaway(512mb) this time. Moreover, the recent RAM inflation does make it extremely tough. But, Dustin did say they were able to source some good amount of RAM this time iirc.
    Anyways, I will tag you in if there's a resource upgrade giveaway, if that's something you'd like.

    I'd settle for a small 512 ram in a nice location.

    Sorry to cut in, I can concur that as well. My fastest response time on their ticket was less than 3 minutes with 100% resolution. The same would have taken several huge names a day or more.

    Anyone using JuiceFS?

    This looks interesting. Are you going to use it locally?

    Maybe I'll use something like Backblaze B2
    Or a hostbrr storagebox!

    Hostbrr is good..replaced it with a Dedi as I couldn't resist the promo but they're nice.

    Yup, 512 mb ram is great if you also couple it with something lightweight like Alpine. I also learned about Alpine's greatness thanks to the wonderfulm members of the yesteryear's BF thread

    Happy morning.

    Hey ralf, haven't seen you around a lot this time. Aren't you an owner of RackNerd backpack as well?

    No, sadly I didn't get a backpack, but the hoodie was great.

    Must be warm a fuzzy feeling wearing it. I could use one right now.

  • I will be back after dinner. You guys keep the hype up. Gotta reach 2M soon

    @noob404 oh by the way did you win any racknerd credits?

    Over the years, a lot bro cause I, not being from the US opt for credits when shipping or bringing the physical item isn't an option

    To bad innit? Might try to convince him. First one shipped to the EU, that would be cool B)

    Guess it depends on what they want but hope they have fairly new infrastructure/equipment and not a bunch of legacy stuff.

    Oh yah. I just remembered you were looking forward to the sweater. BTW, maybe try your luck with the rn December giveaway.

    Nah, the swag is all US only. I thought that was a bit mean at first last year, but when I saw how much the shipping cost after he made a one-off exception for me on the sweater hoodie, I completely understand the decision now.

    Wait what? You're right, you're in th UK right?

    at least for getting started

    Maybe you can purchase it with credits and also use them for shipping ;)

    Yah shipping cost is often the deciding factor. And, sometimes the shipper also has to deal with additional charges if the recipient decides to reject the package due to high customs charges. So, there are many variables involved.
    But, during the chef spree this time, there was a backpack giveaway with international shipping.

    How man... Playing next time!

    Start? Oh you mean the reseller hosting. With the credits available right now, yes. I could start and host it for atleast 5-6 years maybe (unless I get more orders from clients and friends).
    But, right now, I got too much on my plate and that's why the hosting business is getting delayed a bit.

    Makes sense, btw how much credit you have to be enough for hosting for 5-6 years? XD

    I am just gonna say I had more than $1000 in RackNerd credits at some point because I converted almost 3 of my wins (1x RackNerd BF thread + 2x Xmas threads) over the years.
    Fortunately, I have friends in need of VPSes and dedis. So, most of that credit has been used or is spoken for.

    What?!dude.

    sometimes i wonder why i just won't stick to existing and proven providers like RackNerd..

    bought me a VPS in germany by this italian provider i've never seen before. so far haven't gone into any of my purchases cause saving it for tomorrow maybe when BFCM is over, maybe for today .. anyways connecting to their panel - cannot do it, connecting to VPS - cannot do it... ended up reaching out to the provider via LET message. he says - send screen.. turns out my CGNAT was probably causing it somehow or something on their end, anyways i could connect from my DE server though and via VPN to their dashboard. then he replaced IP for my VPS - i was then able to login from home IP, later he reached out saying something changed and i was then able to login to panel without VPN.

    but for a few heavy minutes i was thinking - did i get scammed? LOL.. he also was asking for social security number or drivers license number for their billing records, which i gave license, nobody ever asks for it anywhere, so can't really impersonate me with that, social security though is very important and that i didn't give...

    well, that's what happened...

    Deluxhost?

    Hey, dude. Yes. Dustin is slowly regaining and is back on the leaderboad's 2nd position :lol: glad that he isn't participating

    i know.. otherwise i'd be feeling quite anxious right about now. =)

    Yup. He did a lot of double bandwidth requests today, much more than he ever did in a single sweep. Its impressive infact.

    was quite backed up tho. check the charts - his was rather flat for a few days during Chef's arrival and such.. finally got back to doubling it. and there were A LOT of requests..

    Probably been hunting for deals himself:)
