| jrwren | got my first bill with AWS charging for IPv4 address. It is as much as running the t4g.nano instance. Too rich for my cheap ass. :slightly_smiling_face: | 14:47 |
|---|---|---|
| cmaloney | what's thr ballpatk? | 16:28 |
| jrwren | $3.50/mo | 16:35 |
| jrwren | tis a shame, because I love doing things with those tiny t4g.nano instances, but I don't have much use for one without an ipv4 address | 16:36 |
| dzho | oof yeah | 17:07 |
| dzho | I haven't looked to see what an address costs these days with my VPS providers | 17:07 |
| dzho | last I looked it was $1/month but it's been a while so who knows now | 17:07 |
| dzho | aha | 17:12 |
| dzho | the cheapest VPSen I have now started as $2.50/month with IPv6 only, and the IPv4 was a $1/mo add on. | 17:13 |
| dzho | so I still have them and now have to take care not to let them lapse because the cheapest option they currently offer is $6/mo with IPv4 included | 17:13 |
| dzho | so two of those cost me $7/mo now but would take $12/mo to replace | 17:14 |
| dzho | I'm glad we had this talk :-) | 17:15 |
| jrwren | where is that? $3.50 ain't bad. | 17:21 |
| jrwren | https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/virtual-machines/ed25519-ssh-keys what a joke. | 17:24 |
| dzho | jrwren: nowhere, now | 17:26 |
| dzho | jrwren: vultr used to offer it | 17:26 |
| dzho | now the ones I have are grandfathered in, I guess | 17:26 |
| dzho | I think it was a promotional thing they ran for a time, maybe because they were a little overprovisioned in some DCs? | 17:27 |
| dzho | or maybe it was a wider promotion but they only had so many per DC and when those were gone, that was the end | 17:28 |
| dzho | I remember having to chose amongst a limited set of DCs | 17:28 |
| dzho | I do need to keep some room in my brain open for this these days, what with the akamai takeover of linode dribbling out | 17:31 |
| dzho | maybe it will continue to be fine, but that's no way to bet for the long term | 17:31 |
| dzho | they have definitely reversed course in terms of value | 17:33 |
| dzho | the $5/mo nanode remains, but the next level has gone from $10/mo to $12/mo | 17:33 |
| dzho | which I say is a "reverse" because occasionally they used to bump up the specs across their product line, instead of bumping up the prices. | 17:33 |
| jrwren | https://www.vultr.com/pricing/#cloud-compute/ says that they still do. I'll have to sign up. | 19:28 |
| jrwren | ah, nevermind. I just moved all of the functionality that I need to our rpi5 at endoffice. Now I'm saving $7.50/mo. YAY! | 20:02 |
