BingoBoingo: 192.151.158.26:8333 should be back online sometime this weekend
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: was yours ? wat happened to it ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Machine seemed to have shat the bed. Failed in a way that made it unconnectable via ssh. After trying to poke it and see if it became responsive, just had it reimaged
asciilifeform: a, 1 of them rubbish boxen
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: how long do these typically live for , in your experience so far ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: aside from that one which has been flakey, they seem to keep going. The Costa Rican ones especially stable
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: back when i was still keeping noades on rented boxen, found that cost of 1 that's actually performant (i.e. reasonable ssd, raid, >4G ram) begins to approach that of colo
asciilifeform: dunno whether still true, but suspect is
asciilifeform: one could argue that N cheapo noades adds up to 1 proper 1, but in practice (cuz trb is effectively single-tasked) this aint so
BingoBoingo: If you go outside the US it doesn't seem to hold so much but, the US seems to have overbuilt datacenter space
BingoBoingo: The most stable of the boxes I have colo'd are here https://www.racknation.cr/
asciilifeform: colo'd, as in physically sent'em in ?
asciilifeform: ( traditionally that's what means 'colo'. when you own the iron. )
BingoBoingo: Sorry, rented. Was distracted
asciilifeform: their colo actually loox reasonable ( 110 $ / u / mo. ) , tho doesn't say what costs bw, mains current, etc
asciilifeform: wonder what half/rack costs there
BingoBoingo: I am uncertain. The pipe on the dediboxes isn't especially ample, but they do seem to have scrubbers for the internet weather where their transit comes in from abroad
asciilifeform presently convinced that the only way to test such a claim, is empirical method
BingoBoingo: In other news, per the heathen node viewer, trb-node-iverse appears healthier than it has ever been that I recall https://archive.is/Et5uh
asciilifeform admits, stopped looking at that thing since wrote own
