VPS death clock. 14 fake nodes. Sponsor a real one.

Short version: I need sponsored boxes to finish this. Long version below.

Bought a $8/yr VPS two years ago. Scored 2100 on day one, 1100 by month 18. Nobody warned me.

So I built a death clock for it. Sample the same machine over time, fit the decay curve, solve for when health hits 30%, print the date. It's running at bie.me if you want to look before reading the rest of this.

14 nodes in there right now. All synthetic — I generated 24 months of fake curves so the charts aren't empty, and there's a banner at the top of bie.me that says exactly that.

What I want from you: one sponsored box. 1 vCPU, 512M, any location, any provider. I run four read-only commands a day and publish whatever comes out, flattering or not.

What you get if the numbers hold: a self-updating badge you can embed, the certified row at the top of bie.me, and a tracked link to your order page. If they don't hold, you get nothing, which is the entire point.

DM me: provider, location, plan.

    I think they have an oversold VPS that benches worse now when they bought it, they've decided this means it's going to fail permanently soon, they want a free VPS to run YABS on it 4 times a day

    Back in 2000s internet, people use the "student" badge to ask for free shit, nowdays just an open-source project will do.

    Death clock for VPS. Same box, same benchmark, every month. Fit the
    decay, solve for 30% of original, print a date.

    Numbers are synthetic for now. That's why I'm asking for boxes.

    Not a VPN. A cron job and a curve fit.

    I still don't know why and what is it use for.

    Death clock of what? Who cares about hardware is going to die, my services expire I renew, if its kaput the provider got to change hardware, why tf would I put a clock on my vpses.

    And furthermore, why is someone should give you a FREE VPS just for you to put a "death clock" in it ...

    make literally 0 sense to me.

  • nghialelenghialele Member

    Maybe on your side, stop buy death host then? :D

    "Boxes don't die, they get slower when a neighbour moves in.
    The host isn't swapping hardware over that."

    is this applied only to oversold providers because i don't see any of my current provider being slow when they onboard new customers.

    maybe it is your choosing issue when picking up providers?

    maybe 9/yr isn't optimal in the end? maybe 9/yr attract toooooooooooooo many "neighbour"?

    Yeah, $9 attracts neighbours.

    Question is which $9 provider deals with them. Same price, different
    outcome.

    Or maybe avoid all those providers altogether would help with VPS performance & production workload.
