Whats the meaning of HPC sir?

@yoursunny said:

Crunchy sent us shirt in 2023, but it’s about to rupture due to chest growth.
To retain the ad unit on our chest, they shall send us another shirt (either crunchy or SynTeq branded) or the hoodie (size M).
Otherwise, we’ll have no choice but switch to GreenCloudVPS shirt.

Video of doing deadlifts or squats shared here, and you can have your pick from here: https://synteqhpc.com/merch

Im not sure if all designs are up yet, but iirc there's 2 or 3.

@crunchbits new fumo ?

same fumo but nobody's had yet. ive been seasoning them in the datacenter. plus a really spicy bonus that @FAT32 might ban me over. ive had something in my drafts for a few days but was holding off posting since we're all on-site making final pushes.

I will do anything for this sent to me

thanks, i appreciate it. really letting new team members cook and take big ownership in stuff going forward. im an old man now and just good at knowing what hardware to avoid and throwing gear into a rack these days-- very much enjoying having the motivated talent around and very excited to know they'll continue improvements well after my time.

only pain point has been stock delays outside of private cloud stuff but i just don't want to push garbage out, especially since most acquisitions/mergers/etc usually don't end well or require wildly different direction.

Oh you'll do fine! Just never forget where you're coming from and don't lose your sense of humour!

Never had the opportunity to be a client but always appreciated your contributions.

Good to see @Calin moving his way up on https://synteqhpc.com/about

Eric is very handsome, though.

I'm going to have to deny this change as the new name isn't catchy enough to replace Crunchbits.

Feel free to re-apply after you put some more thought into it.

Thanks for the offer.
We have chosen to donate 1024 cents to your Direct Relief fundraiser for the crunchy red hoodie.
Due to limited drawer space, we will not claim the black hoodie this year.
However, we have bookmarked this offer and will claim this one in next few years.
Please don’t deadpool before then.

No, besides logo/lots of backend infrastructure. Of course, anyone that was on pre-Xeon Scalable Cascade Lake was upgraded (some extremely recently) and migrated. Including all those yearlies that started off on our first e5v4 platforms.

I am a bit worried about how the commitment to legal free speech is no longer on the home page, but at least the AUP is still good

Good point. I think an oversight, as that is still very much intact. Will review--ty.

We witnessed major changes:

CPU upgraded from E5-2696 v4 to Platinum 8260.
RAM increased from 3GB to 4GB.
Storage is still constrained at 25GB.
BGP session is still established.
Price is still 39 squats per year.

This is current benchmark:
