    When does this 1 GB KVM VPS sale end?
    Is it until December 10th?
    I need to place my order before then.

    Probably 12

    Thank you.
    I'll hurry and scrape together the money to place the order by then.

    Iirc, the deal price usually is available after that date, but, this time around, there's been a lot of orders. So, stock should be of concern.
    In any case, I recommend you jump up on it while it's still available.

    I was in a great hurry.
    Then, I was able to purchase the service without any problems.
    Thanks for the advice!

    Anytime, dude. Welcome to the RackNerd family. Make sure you post the order number on the thread to get that sweet double bandwidth for free.

    Watched MI: FR completely and I believe this was the perfect ending to the franchise. Loved it!

    the ending was very colorful with those planes and all. very very eye pleasing.

    Yes, and I love the way they kept playing with the aspect ratio

    second that

    Esp the scene where he ejects from USS Ohio where he turns that wheel to open the ejection chamber. With each turn of the wheel, the screen expands to cover full scree. It was visually pleasing to watch.

    his face is not that pleasing anymore.. he old.. but his 1st wife.. omg.. she aged worse..

    Katie Holmes? Nicole Kidman is my favourite among his ex-wives though. She has gotten old, but, was really good in Special Ops: lioness.

    Still love Katie !

    oops. correction.. his second wife.. apparently he was married 3 times. and none stuck..

    Oh yah. You were talking about Kidman. Yah, she prolly has gone under the knife multiple times bye now or maybe botox or something. But, man, she used to be so damn beautiful

    Too bad ain't it? Gotta embrace aging.

    Me as well. Got some work to complete as well. I am happy we hit 750. Will be back for more hype very soon

    seems like there was zero hyping for the past 5hrs.. everybody got something to do this weekend.. somehow not the way it's always been..

    Well, usually we have people from multiple timezones on this thread. So, hyping was mostly equally shared. This year though some of the usual hype squad members aren't very active :(

    Amateurs!

    Yah, what an amateur, right? :lol:

    But don't feel too bad

    How so?

    Well, you know, I really think we got to know each other over the years, you'll always be with me in my <3

    For example, last year while US/UK/EU members of the hype squad handled hyping for a time period, we Indians used to handle the other. This time though trk, xpress and sikkygoose aren't very active.

    Yeah, can't blame them. Life outside is soooooo beautiful! Feeding the birds in a bit.

    Oh yes, I do live that life, kinda like majority of the rest of the months of the year. But, when RNparty is on, I have my priorities right.

    A single picture can't explain what pain is, right? What about this one?

    Has anyone gotten this before? I check the CPU placement atleast 5 times from all angles with direct light from all sides, before I close the CPU lid on the motherboard. In the current market, such a mistake would be extremely costly.

    BTW, anyone here have experience with bending the pins back to their original position. I have seen people recommend either a razor blade or a plier. If you have done this before, which one would you recommend?

    Did it with a plier once, no issue. Gotta be careful though.

    Yah, I haven't built many PCs to face this issue but the images and videos online of bent pins scares me. So, wa prepping for something like that in the future.

    you can't get ready for that.. first you say - it's only a couple of pins.. then you try leveling them, and push a few others off while doing that.. then it's a knife in your hand trying to straighten whole rows of pins.. end up just saying PHUKET..

    Yah, I know, in the end, I will just have to use the dorra from my Bangkok fund to get a new CPU :lol:

    see you getting it.. lady boys will love you! =)

    I am scared of them. I hate strangers getting all cozy and too touchy with me

    it's understandable. then dinner first!

    No, on a serious note, there are places like that in India too, that I have heard of. They are like extremely rare though.

    Good to know.

    Oh yes. It's code red at this point. Gotta work more to get this numbers up. Maybe time to reduce your daily baki episode consumption count

    oh yeah.. a few bent ones, and you're fcuked. it is so hard to straighten those.. like it was made to go wrong at any mishandling..

    Some of those pins are trivial and might not affect the performance in any major way, but, if you mess up one of those rimporrant pins, for most average customers, it's game over.

    the thing is, if you cannot insert a pin, it is bent and means that whole CPU doesn't fit fully in.. unless you break the pin, which happens on its own after you keep trying to adjust it..

    Yah. I built my first in 2021 and haven't had to go through that sweaty palms moment since then. Hope I don't have to again :lol:

    i built my first in 2001.. LOL.. from spare parts taken out of PCs found by the side of the road in the little development i used to live at back then.. and it was building and building and rebuilding ever since. up until 2018. at this point i am convinced it is much more beneficial and way easier just to buy one prebuilt and ready to go. even overclocked on the plant, if that is affordable. maybe not these days, but still i am sure plants are producing PCs from parts they bought 2-3 years ago, so should be extra expensive just yet...

    Oh yah, I regularly watch those restoration videos. Makes me wonder why I don't find gold on the sides of road here :lol: esp given much of the ewaste does end up here.

    Lol, that'd be a treasure to find.

    Yah, but, they are not to be found here. Indians can use computers for decades.

    Sorry @Saragoldfarb , just the shrooms, they take me to my happy place.

    Word. I know the feeling, getting all pinky warm.

    I thought dinos don't get high on shrooms.

    they ate everything back in the day. i bet some of that were magic shroomies..

    Yah, prolly led to their extinction as well, not meteors :lol:

    But yeah, could mount an image and it should work.

    this is the part i am unfamiliar with..

    Does the provider's faq or any other document provide details about the steps to mount iso drive?

    nope.. one of those 6-article knowledge bases..

    And upon contacting them, what do they have to say when requesting details about mounting a custom iso?

    waiting to get a reply..

    It's been more than 3 days now right?

    no i got reply last night saying "mount an iso as a quick workaround" which didn't tell me much, thus all my questions here, since i know many of you guys are linux pros..

    Do they just expect you to study and understand their infrastructure and then figure out how to mount an iso on their hardware that you dont have full access to??? That's just odd and a useless response more than being vague which I previously mentioned. It's like shifting blame to the customer for the provider's lack of proper planning.

    i guess it's assumed that anyone getting LET BF offer knows their way around Linux and ISOs and such..

    But that still doesn't explain how you are supposed to mount an iso if the provider doesn't give you the tools to do that. This is interesting though. BTW, can you tell me what you get when you boot the VPS. Is there any lightweight distro or something already running there?

    just debian 13. i think rescue is available too.. can't recall now, no menu option is available now, everything complains that it cannot be accessed while server is performing a task..

    What are you actually trying to do?

    If he hasn't yet answered, he is trying to run Ubuntu 24 to install and setup dante-server on a VPS that has Debian running currently. They don't have Ubuntu yet, so, he has been asked to add Ubuntu ISO on his own. But, the provider hasn't provided any specific instructions on how to add the ISO and boot from it, since the managing panel or dashboard on the provider doesn't seem to have such an option.

    This might be a very foolish suggestion. But, would it be possible to download and bott off an ISO using the grub commandline?

    maybe.. i am yet to try all the advice i received.. server is still performing task.. still inaccessible.

    Dude, at this point, it'd be safe to say this is unacceptable. How many days has it been stuck at the same performing task status?

    a day and a half..

    Oh, I felt like it had been lot more than that

    i've been complaining about it a lot, but since the last incident been only day and a half so far..

    Oh ok. Yah, maybe cause we have been discussing the incident like a lot

    Debian thanks?

    Yah, sticking with debian would be much better at this point, it seems.

    I know that. When that happened to me, it's disgusting? BTW, is it like frozen blood or are you actually bleeding with fresh red blood?

    nose blood.. crimson..

    Would be best to get it looked at. Do you have nosebleeds every winter?
