(Quote) He commented on about 7 posts some old all at once and is stank of AI/LLM, I dont believe it was a human account.
-
(Quote) A bit late either way now it's in.
-
(Quote) I used to be on a few air gapped government networks too, so paranoid that someone was employed to check that certain physical cables and desktops were not in physical range of each other and one network had ceramic separators to change the …
-
At this rate I can see governments just shutting down public internet access.
-
(Image) I made a good decision
-
(Quote) You went out of your way to downvote someone enough times to get them banned, someone who no longer has a provider tag essentially at your request and that has not logged in for months. This breaks at handful of rules, I am perfectly confid…
-
I guess my answer doesn't matter either then.
-
(Quote) It has to be from 20 unique users to be banned. Why are you trying to get someone banned? The safety nets had to be put in place because of exactly this sort of childish behaviour.
-
(Quote) Yeah I started thinking this as well add a 'thanks' or 'upvote' at the top and a 'downvote' at the bottom as well as the arrows for a transition period
-
(Quote) I will send the details to my colleague he does the HAProxy engineering work, but my guess is no or at least not this sensitive, it has drawbacks at scale with very high latency between some locations that could actually cause more issues th…
-
(Quote) Yep, I will get that done. On the usb-tablet side, that was deliberate (usable if needed but not ideal), as I don't really want people sitting on the panel-based VNC proxy all day when much better options exist for direct connections i…
-
(Quote) Sorry I know its not BSD but its done so thought I would update, more info in TierHive thread: https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/11337/tierhive-update-post-24th-october-2026-now-supporting-haiku-os#latest
-
Haiku now available on TierHive cloud-init-compatible virtio, patched for performance and sshd is enabled with key or password-based auth supported; the first one to host a meaningful, non-basic, semi-interactive website with a short overview/guide …
-
(Quote) Using multiple accounts to bulk downvote and being an admin time vacuum.
-
(Quote) Yep, just being active in general I guess. Contribute a post every now and then I. Something you like, do, find interesting, want etc etc.
-
damn, that's an interesting offer!
-
(Quote) Nope, just allocate a port from the VPS management page: (Image) If you want a custom internal port (I suggest 443 for compatibility) then enter it there and then the panel will issue e.g. 6789 > 443 so https://domain-pointed-to-extern…
-
(Quote) Either Los Angeles or Miami most likely, but not ruling out India. We took a bit of a break from expansion and focused on availability/capacity instead, as some locations were constantly out of stock or overloaded, that is mostly solved now…
-
(Quote) No, for that you need TCP mode, we are deploying it eventually, we have it working in the internal version. For now, it's not possible using NAT IPv4 unless you use non-standard ports for SSL.
-
(Quote) Done; also applies to temporary suspensions.
-
Again, I will allow it once. Please apply for a provider's tag after reading the rules (top bar) if you want to make any more adverts "announcements"
-
(Quote) yep, thats trivial, I will add that to the list
-
FreeBSD 14.5 now built and available. As always stripped down to the (practical) bare bones, no extra crap eating your precious MB's of ram, tuned for TierHive and KVM. FreeBSD 14.5-RELEASE-p2 (GENERIC) releng/14.5-n274894-872ce416b253Welcome…
-
Anyway, as a tip if you want to do it quick, just spin up a new VPS, put them both in rescue and dd it over ssh, you have a copy, you can then manually update what needs to be updated.
-
(Quote) So what do you do about the fact that it has the same IP and mac address as the other server you made a copy of? I know its simple on a single VPS manual scale, but its much less so when you have a mesh system that bridges your servers betwe…
-
(Quote) You can change it in the VPS directly in the mean time and this only impacts reinstalls. (Quote) So do you mean change the IP not the "entire subnet" ? if so that is coming, also multiple IP's is coming, but we wont be doing …
-
(Quote) Hostname changes in the panel are coming; you can't yet, because it's tied to the cloud-init config and has wider implications. You can't change your subnet; I can't see any common justification for anyone to ever need to?
-
Even though this is a bit of an advert, i will allow it, mainly because of the faces I was pulling trying to figure out how to say "girginos" grr ginos gur gnos girg in os The link for a VPS panel probably should not lead people to an ema…
-
(Quote) Yeah, cherry picking the alpine blog post from the TierHive blog will get you 90% of the way though.
-
(Quote) It was moved to the footer, it still exists. :)
-
Aaah ok @jcn50 ok so it's the older template I understand why now, that's the reason I recently 'rerolled' the new one, the official ones from alpine are super inefficiently made so they work on everything which means a lot of bl…
-
(Image) From deploy to prompt was just under 3 minutes 128mb ram, 1GB disk, low everything. Reboot to prompt was 28 seconds. My best guess and it's just a guess, you have the 'button' module missing or unlinked so acpi is not res…
-
(Quote) Hmm that doesn't sound right I will test that now
-
Updated freebsd 15.1 template added to TierHive massively reduced and improved, runs on 256mb ram and 1 GB disk now. Will build the 14.5 tomorrow as I guess the previous version might be wanted too.
-
(Quote) Well over that now; why do you ask? We get around 50 new users per day at the moment; live VPS status goes up and down wildly all day, many people use them for a few hours and then destroy them to save money. We have around 2000 VPS shut do…

wow..... just..... wow

(Quote) now you have 5 (Quote) You are most welcome! we love the idlers
-
(Quote) oh?
-
(Quote) Volunteering if I pay for the resources?
-
(Quote) how about now :)
-
(Quote) Yeah, I guess that's just sensible. I will do that.
-
(Quote) I found a very simple compromise: (Image) If you accidently click it, you have 2 minutes to click undo, no extra confirmations. Edit: Done and in live.
-
(Quote) lol, its been such a long week I cant tell if this is serious :)

(Quote) I feel like I am missing something but as you got 6 votes and the post was pushed up due to comments I will manually put you in the members group.
