I placed a low bid on an auction for 25 Elitedesk 800 G1s on a government auction and unexpectedly won (ultimately paying less than $20 per computer)
In the long run I plan on selling 15 or so of them to friends and family for cheap, and I’ll probably have 4 with Proxmox, 3 for a lab cluster and 1 for the always-on home server and keep a few for spares and random desktops around the house where I could use one.
But while I have all 25 of them what crazy clustering software/configurations should I run? Any fun benchmarks I should know about that I could run for the lolz?
UK here, we could run that from 1 plug.
Psh 1 plug aint shit. Every Pic I see from anyone who lives out in those ghettos of India, Central America or any spacific islands they also only rock 1 plug but theyre running the corner store, the liquor store, the hospital, their style of little school middle school and old school, 3 hair salons if Latin or 3 nail salons if spasific, Bollywood, every stadium from every country in the world cup, and always 1 dude trying to squeeze 1 more plug in cuz hes runing low bats. Idk why the American ghetto is so pussy. One time i seen a family that fuckin put covers over empty sockets?!? Come on dog thats like wearing a condom jerking off. NGL tho, I get super jelly seeing pictures from those countries thp with their thousands of power lines, phone lines, sidelines, cable lines, borderlines, internet lines… fuck I don’t know much about how my AOL works but those wizards must be streaming some Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts with all them wires.
That part is wrong for India, at least.
Here’s a random site with some stats
India, you can expect ~100Mb/s with FTTH and 50Mb/s otherwise. Reliability is even worse.
Rest is right.
India has gigabit fiber
And Japan has a 300+ Tb/s connection. Your point?
My point is that the average Indian is not doing “Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts” (not sure what banddrift even means, but no).
And yes, a 1Gb/s connection is theoretically available, but how many people are using the ~₹4000/month connection?
Considering how many people tend to just not have Broadband at home, relying just on mobile internet, we can see how things compare with others.
Also, to point to the tread starter, most of the “thousands of” cables that you see on poles in congested areas, are just abandoned cables from older installations which nobody cared to remove.
Also ~100Mb/s is in no way the average speed in an Indian household. It’s usually lower. I also don’t see any specific mentions of india in your link up there to that random site.
You’re right. It’s not.
I don’t see any either. Guess why. Because it only has the top 10, further emphasising the point that :
I’m not the same dude that was talking about banddrifts and congested poles.
Indian, btw.
