A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Renting old baremetal from them for cheap is much more price effective, especially if you can snag it on sale.

Going to have to look into that. I didn't know that was even an option. Good tip!

And it also reduces waste by stopping those old boxes from being trashed and putting them to good use.

In all fairness, they usually end up on eBay and then in my basement 😂

I suggest checking out their discount brands Kimsufi and SoYouStart. I pay like C$12/month for a dedicated server with a few cores, 8GB of RAM, and 2TB of hard drive space.
