(Quote) You know, it's nothing personal to @MikeA, but there is just this black spot in my head that ExtraVM fall into when I try to think of hosts to use or recommendto someone, I have been recommending ExtraVM a bit of reddit recently it alwa…

There is always @georgedatacenter lets have a look... out of stock....
-
Checked AdvinServers as they supported tierhive a lot with Kansas, sadly, even the small plans are massive and NYC is out of stock. I feel like things are going to end up on Vultr at this rate.
-
Just had the brilliant idea of using RackSRV, would be fitting, considering my first-ever dedi was from Jon at Racksrv and we sort of e-knew each other for like 25 years now.... sad to see they sold in 2022 and things went downhill after :( Man, my…

(Quote) I guess that way we can use LES being up or down as an official status indicator of virmach, I like your thinking.
-
(Quote) Yeah I saw but that's a bit of a concern, that's why I asked, I don't know what I don't know though so no comment.
-
(Quote) Seems like a solid option 😜
-
Whatever happened to secure dragon and @KuJoe ? Not sure why I thought of that just trying to remember the old stable hosts from the LE world.
-
(Quote) I used leaseweb VPS recently, it has 8 second latency spikes on the NVMe regularly (not milliseconds), I asked them to move it, after 4 days they finally responded like they were doing me a favour, and they got the latency spikes down to 6 s…

Nice to see different types of offers 💪
-
(Quote) There was a bunch of fixes put in last week, maybe 2 weeks ago now, and we have not had a single HAProxy-related ticket since (of this nature) we did cause some 'reverse logic' issues when we tied the static hosting into it. seems …
-
Update, found out that HDD (slow storage) upgrades were being billed at the hourly rate for the original size. So we have not been billing for 17.5TB worth of upgrades for a long time... Oops As it was a code fault, its on us, no back billing will…
-
I noticed an increase in people reporting being terminated without a specific reason, and an uptick in people explaining what it means to use the free part of PAYG, on a few platforms. It sounds like communication has been 10/10 as always from oracl…
-
(Quote) Honestly, it was just a scale vs expectations thing, we expected maybe a few hundred customers over a year or so, we got that in a week, it was based on old NAT LowEndSpirit numbers and methods, before LES was a forum, this also lets us hand…
-
I wondered if anyone has seen any change so far?
-
Extra resources added to singapore, available to add VPS now, the load balancers will put every new VPS on the new node for a while if anyone wants or needs a second IP in SG.
-
A few updates on TierHive in general: Payments, tagging @ehab as he initially got me started on this bit: (Image) Amount is now shown as an estimate in GBP, EUR and USD, live. Also, you can now redeem a coupon in the same place, hopefully makin…
-
(Quote) Reached out to hosthatch, if they are ok with it, we can probably use around 9 of their locations. Leaseweb is actual trash these days, already tried, Leaseweb Japan is either selling cached SATA as nvme or overselling so badly in Japan the…
-
(Quote) Hostdizer - no dedicated in JP, VPS has a very restrictive CPU policy. HostHatch with dedicated cores might be an option Hytron - no dedi's, terms vague on CPU use. I really want to avoid doing any region specific procing, at least wh…
-
(Quote) I am struggling to find the right deal/provider to be honest, I would like to do all 4, if you have any recommendations, I am happy to have a look.
-
(Quote) When 2ill you have more stock, might also be interested :) if that is to up in the air right now, np, no rush.
-
(Quote) We use a merchant of record, FastSpring. Technically, you are their customer, not ours, and FastSpring is our only customer; this allows us to not require any of your personal data. They detect your location during checkout based on your IP…
-
(Quote) oh I understand sorry, the panel shows a USD amount for how much you want to top up by as a guide, I guess I could add an EUR conversion to that. When you proceed, you will see the amount in EUR, though if you are in an EUR location. Thank…
-
(Quote) We don't have a currency we have tokens. FastSpring bills you in whatever your local currency is based on your location at the time of topup. Maybe I misunderstood the question?
-
(Quote) yeah go for it.
-
Confirmed everything is working as expected, thanks. Anyone can use any voucher codes now.
-
Pretty cool, well done. The cPanel importer is a good move.
-
(Quote) fixed
-
(Quote) Honestly, we were just talking about it yesterday, Ipv6 was kind of forced in to alpha before we were ready because so much noise was made about ipv6. In hindsight, it was a huge mistake, in the end I could not make it work as I wanted with…
-
(Quote) thanks, stand by.
-
All patched up, might be a bit unpredictable for a few hours while the mesh corrections run in batches
-
ok then, tagging @vish
-
(Quote) which one?
-
(Quote) Less uptime?
-
We hit some snags early on, we have been using this as an opportunity in real time to improve things, around 20 changes have gone into production to help the self-healing, did not go quite to plan for the first few nodes, but we stuck with it, as ho…
-
(Quote) haha i meant someone just saying "Yeah, use DIshWash3rVPS.1337 they provide exactly this" :)
-
I must have seen this question 1000 times over the years, never seen an answer.
-
(Quote) Why do you assume a price hike will happen?
-
(Quote) We are going to start the reboots later today and downtime will be as long as it needs to be. Expect issues.
-
LOW2026 is not recurring, post edited.
-
I mean, it's kind of a "why not" situation, things got a bit hairy in the browser market there for a while, but given the absolute shit show that is Thunderbird, you would have thought if they wanted to get in the email game, they wou…

(Quote) Just got your email, are you suspending and resuming or just stopping guest domains?
-
(Quote) yep just did some reading, seems no one managed to get the POC to impact a pve kernel, they have patched it anyway, but I would guess there are enough changes already present that the POC is not hitting the pve kernel in the same way.
