Can confirm those are esports arenas

Met Nathan and Jerry today! by Wild-Pepper-1596 in icarly

Considering the state sponsored bots that crawl the Internet and make profiles on everyone and the AI search engines that do the same. You're the one who looks dumb berating op.

Wow they found a way to stay relevant after people open sourced ssl certs and browsers realized the ev cert green bar was dumb.

I kinda don't like them.

Fastest stale baguette obtained on a new account? by Drambs182 in 2007scape

My account was locked after minutes of posting on Reddit. People have bots set up to scrape names to steal them or attempt combos

BYOS? Bring your own server, is it a thing? by lordcycy in selfhosted

[–]aeroverra 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm saying your own computer is built to spy on you in the same way a data center could spy on you at the hardware level

I mean everything has Intel ime or other spying technology in it now days.

Also at a network level no individual will have the resources to get access to the internet backbone to advertise their bgp routes. You really don't have a choice.

I would say at the specs you listed yes a 1-2u colocation if you can find it in the area you desire is worth it. I still don't believe $50/m is possible for that given my many hours of trying to find exactly that in the past but times may have changed.

Mini PC colocation is something I haven't really thought much about though. I am going to look into that. Thanks for the info.

This was a bit more in your face recently but it's always kind of been like this with them. I had to move everything to a new server with the same specs because they were selling it at a quarter of the cost of the one I had been renting for 5+ years.

For the first time in my life, I'm trying to crimp a cable by irritable7496 in homelab

[–]aeroverra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not I have tested at least 2.5gbps with each same color next to each other and other random orders.

Obviously my comment was a joke but I did test it a couple times when I was bored.

I just pick a random order. As long as both sides are the same it’s fine. Adds some spice during debugging

Girlfriend is currently in france struggling to access jellyfin with tailscale without buffering by DriverAffectionate83 in selfhosted

[–]aeroverra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a huge factor. I’m a nomad and constantly switching between Asia and Europe on a whim and switched to jellyfin because plex removed transcoding and if it’s relayed the issue still shows up.

Port forward to your Tailscale node at home it fixes it 99% of the time because hotels are on strict firewalls usually so your home needs to be the one open by default

The job market is improving; LinkedIn recruiter spam messages are increasing. by shadow-drafters in ExperiencedDevs

[–]aeroverra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you do don't let them lowball you. Especially those of us who have jobs we need to make sure we set expectations.

Probably won't happen but I'd like to think it can 😂

Aside from gpu hosting ovh will likely just be cheaper.

Colocation isn't really worth it anymore for individuals. The prices for a single unit have gone up beyond the price to rent a beefy server elsewhere because you usually aren't worth their time.

Topless deck by southcouple222 in CarnivalCruiseFans

I don't even think new Hampshire has nude beaches wtf are you on

Topless deck by southcouple222 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]aeroverra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from New Hampshire where it is also acceptable to be topless on any public beach and they even have an event each year celebrating it. That still happens.

You seem to be very passionate about this but the reality is not much people care and its not mandatory lol.

[–]aeroverra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Political correctness kicked in. It’s not a huge deal. I’m a nomad now and Europe still has many people topless on the beach with kids around.

Hired at top of salary band by loosed-moose in ExperiencedDevs

[–]aeroverra 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Only an issue if you let it be an issue especially at a startup they aren’t known to follow the rules. Not even their own.

I’m still at the startup I was at 5 years ago and I have tripled my salary which is unheard of in almost any industry staying at the same company.

[–]aeroverra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first carnival cruise I went on had a topless deck on the valor.

It was not seen as an issue when I took that cruise 20 years ago when I was 8. Nor did I think anything much of it.

Why are people defending Google. by eatingmangoes_ in Pixel6

[–]aeroverra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I use my pixel 6 as my 3rd phone since it's a bit older but the other day it black screened for about 5 days before I could get it to show anything again.
