ceene | hi :) | 08:07 |
ceene | so, this irc client is a znc running on a VPS I rent for $3 a year. I got it 3 years ago or so, payment by the year | 08:08 |
ceene | a couple of years ago, the company providing the VPS got hacked and a bunch of vps machines got deleted, this one of mine among them | 08:08 |
ceene | in compensation, they got me another year free (wow, like $3 a year is that much... and what the hell, they got hacked and their machines got deleted????) | 08:09 |
ceene | that period of paid time + free time has already passed, and I've not paid anything anymore | 08:09 |
ceene | i had forgotten about it completely, because it just works | 08:09 |
ceene | yesterday, the company had a black out and my vps was offline a few hours, i went to see what happened, and it was just something general, not due to my machine | 08:10 |
ceene | but i saw that the $3/year plan no longer exists, that my service appears as canceled and that this machine should not exist anymore | 08:10 |
ceene | and so here i am, using a shitty $0/year plan to connect to the irc | 08:10 |
ceene | so | 08:10 |

enyc | ceene: haha | 13:44 |
enyc | ceene: you remind me of ''forgotten'' email accounts on pop3/imap servers etc | 13:45 |
enyc | easier just to keep them running than to try to do anything about figuring out which is whose etc etc | 13:45 |
ceene | yeah, I still have my email on the uni. I asked them how much will it last "while you're a student here" they said. 12 years later, the email is still there | 14:55 |
tk | ceene: sounds like cloud at cost | 14:57 |
tk | except my machine on cloud at cost performed like an old calculator | 14:57 |
ceene | mine is with wishosting, like in... I wish it'd worked without getting hacked and deleted | 14:58 |
tk | also sounds like you're paying the right price for it :P | 14:59 |
ceene | yeah, I can't complain much if at all lol | 15:00 |
ceene | i just use it for this ZNC and as a central hub for a VPN which I use to connect to my father's laptop when he breaks something | 15:00 |
ceene | it's nice having a fixed IP to her laptop which is always behind nat | 15:00 |
ceene | s/her/his/ | 15:01 |
tk | hmm, I wouldn't trust such a cheap host for security in terms of using it as a node in a VPN | 15:05 |
ceene | well, it's meant to reconfigure the printer when my dad breaks it somehow, it's not much that it's doing | 15:06 |
ceene | the root password for that laptop is 'x' | 15:06 |
ceene | not that I care much lol | 15:06 |
