Enjoy it man! All your problems can be solved with enough effort. THis is the best part, the part where you are forced to learn a bunch of new stuff to move up in your skills :)

Best of luck! I love this shit!

Can i interest you in 300 dollars in free credits for 1 month? Lmao jk

THE matrix? Like…Neo and Morpheus?

You mean to tell me I shouldn’t ask them if my GF is cheating on me?

yeah idk maybe they changed it but i have an externally accessible IP where I can access my apps on different ports and I can point my domain to that IP with no problems. Homer has some functionality to serve the SSL cert and that is within the instance, it wouldn’t matter if its a laptop at home or whichever cloud.

One thing you may have run into is that you have to open ports in the security group so if you didn’t do that then its “not accessible”

is there any reason you couldn’t just point a domain you own to the IP address of the instances?

For me its working and I serve the SSL certificate from the homer page or w/e

if you reread my post its more for learning and playing with more hardware than you get with AWS.

I’m not suggestion people run critical services or data here

Sorry about that, I know i’ve had a lot of good luck with AWS free trails multiple times on a single CC

low key though couldn’t you run more or less a pihole type vpn from cloud to a local network gateway?

I mean you’ll run up a lot of bandwidth and you would limit your speed but just saying out of curiosity you COULD reasonably do it

Perfect for those of us who are just playing around with stuff and don’t have a spare PC/Device :)

right and you shouldn’t run critical stuff on other peoples hardware unless you are down pat with security, DR and HA concepts but this post was really aimed at people who just want something free to play around with and learn with

Thanks for the heads-up!

I know people HATE oracle but for me its perfect, i’m just dinking around and I don’t want to abuse making new AWS accounts for their 12 months free tier for a computer instance.

I know that one of the reason they terminate instances is if they are deemed inactive as such that 20 percent or less CPU activity and some other fairly high minimums.

I also know almost all cloud providers including cloudflare hate certain things like plex media servers for potential copyright violations.

I’d say the reasons are perhaps unfair but nonetheless present.

Anyways i personally just found out about it so as poorly received as the post has been, I hope someone does find this to be a fun way to dink around too

maybe it looks like a c&c for some botnet or w/e.

can you make a new account with a new email? I know AWS lets you make new accounts very easily

Lmao I love how you get more ignorant with each reply.

Do you truly not see the irony in your situation?

Lmao state of the world eh? Quick to judge, and quick to defend when judged

Whatever have a good night

Right and Op might be rocking a model 3 on a lease shared with a spouse. Everyone has a story. Assuming he’s got a Tesla so just throw away 500-1000 bucks seems kinda closed minded for someone driving a classic sports car ;)

You feel me dog or is this all going over your head?

It’s overkill for a proxmox server that will likely sit idle

Use it as a streaming PC, buy a quick video capture card and use it to edit, stream and store footage while your main PC stays clean for larger games

You drive a BMW you should give me a computer. That’s how this wealth shaming works right?
