@jerry infosec.exchange will be even better in a few days - I wouldn't be me if I didn't host my own instance, right? ;) Lighten your load a bit maybe.. Seriously, though, you've done a fantastic job if it!

@ladyparabellum The fediverse is designed to be federated. You're always welcome here, but I understand the itch to run your own instance...
Show threadLady ParaBellum Nov 11, 2022
@jerry I've just run my own usenet server from the beginning to current day, seems like I'd be remiss if I didn't do the same with a few fediverse applications.

@jerry I'm going to start with just a private machine, get my feet wet. But if there comes a time when it makes sense - I have 2x 40 core Xeons and a half a dozen 16 core Xeons here. And a 5gbit/sec symmetric fiber connection. 40gbit fiber floor, and 6x 10gbit/sec fiber links from the firewall. (also a 16 core Xeon) All the Xeons have 2x 10gbit SFP+ and 6x gigabit copper.

@ladyparabellum @femaven that’s an impressive bit of hardware. The best I’ve got now is my 32 core Epyc
Show threadLady ParaBellum Nov 12, 2022
@jerry @femaven The Epyc is faster than a 40core Xeon. By a fair bit.

@ladyparabellum @jerry  

I host mine on a 12600k with a 2500/1000 connection :P (A few people like me could have a 10000/2000 connection for 35 euro/month, but the Italian TIM ISP sucks and does not want to implement IPV6, ironically they had it in testing mode but they REMOVED it  )

Show threadJerry 🦙💝🦙Nov 12, 2022
@fuomag9 @ladyparabellum it’s amazing how ISPs on one hand complain about lack of ipv4 addresses, but then are dragging their feet on supporting ipv6.
Show threadfuomag9Nov 12, 2022

@jerry @ladyparabellum Oh in this case they have A LOT of ipv4 addresses left (Something like a million) as they bought them a long time ago when they were cheap and they are holding them, so this is probably one of the reasons why they don't want to implement it  

Also one of the other big ISP we have here (Vodafone) does not have ipv6  

Until Iliad arrived in Italy only Fastweb and a few smaller ones were deploying it, and Fastweb still uses 6rd

@Ptisan I think you're right about that. I suspect our growth is going to start slowing considerably.
