  • I'm actually thinking of buying a gun, which is crazy because I've been opposed to them my whole life.

  • Check out Lunanode. Cheapest option is 3.50 a month and bonus points for being Canadian. I just recently set my VPS up there and am really pleased with them. Afaik they support your needs including custom ISO.

  • If its a mission critical use, I would stick to a more common TLD (com, org, net, etc). Country TLDs should be okay too.

  • I'm actually pretty pleased so far. I had to contact support to sort out a payment problem but they were incredibly quick to help me out. I think the price performance is pretty decent, but my needs are very minimal. The web ui is really straightforward as well, really no complaints.

  • I'm currently switching all my computing/cloud stuff over to Canadian and/or EU providers. I'm going to move my domains to Easy DNS and try out a VPS from LunaNode.

  • Also worth noting that they themselves are an American company for anyone that is concerned about that.

  • Does anyone have a good recommendation for an S3 provider? I'm looking at Hetzner and OVH.

  • Long time customer and super happy with Fastmail. Its a bit pricy but the service is great.

  • I absolutely hate that I have to use it, but my next best option is less than 5 Mbps.

  • Canada technically shares a land border with Denmark: Hans Island

  • This was such a big worry of mine, but I'm only down 12% average versus the summer and I live in Canada.

  • Came here to say my DE razor that I bought second hand which was made before WW2. Still going strong and used every day.

  • I'm using an ancient RX580 with my Razer TB3 enclosure and it works just fine for playing older games at 1080p. Not sure I would invest in an eGPU again though, it would only cost a small amount more to build a basic gaming rig from old parts that would outperform my setup with less hassle.

  • I'm still rocking a OP6 running the latest Lineage. Cost me $60 used. $1000 for a phone is insane!

  • What I do to keep DNS consistent inside and out is use Tailscale on all my clients. I host a DNS server hosted on my tailnet that is set up as split DNS for my "kickassdomain.org".

  • Fwiw I switched from k3s to Talos and find it much easier to manage. I run 3 mini 1L PCs with rook-ceph and it works flawlessly even on 1Gbe.

  • I'm pretty happy with the combo of a cheap, thin mattress with a nicer memory foam topper on it. Affordable, and can replace the topper separately if needed producing less waste than needing a whole new mattress.
