Migrating servers over a 20Mbit/s uplink feels a bit like #dialup.
Atm most of my homelab infra ran on #Proxmox at my parent's place. But since I don´t have the space (yet) at home. I temporary ordered a dedicated server at #Hetzner that also runs Proxmox for my homelab needs.
The NAS that I've previously used to store the VM disks on it will now run #Unraid with Proxmox backup Server as a VM as the backup solution for the VM's that are now running on the Hetzner server.

The sound of dial up modem.
All you need is someone to shout that they want to use the phone and voila!.....
you have been transported back to the 90s.

@vogelchr @LaF0rge Likely, or just a passive adaptor...
Personally I wished it was an "#AnnexB" style #HyTNAS with #POTS/#PSTN + #ISDN on the same lines but that doesn't work with Uk0.

I wounder if #56k-#dialup & #ISDN-Dialup #Internet access is also implemented for some #RetroNetworking.
I mean 14,4k Fax should just work out of the box tho.

@matt 'In a sanely designed internet'. The issue has not been in the design. It is more in the unreliable connectiveness of computers with the internet. Thus, browsing more often brought up the error pages than it did the results of searches. #DialUp #PeakTimes #ServerError @mattdm

I can’t be the only one who remembers Seganet. When I had a #Dreamcast back in the day, before broadband was available, I subscribed to this #dialup ISP.
It was… fine. I mean it was dialup so it was basically the same as the service I had already been using. I wanted it because it had #SEGA in the name! Can you blame me?

It's 2023 and I've had to add an index of #Dialup #Numbers to my repo.
You can find it here...

Mind you that person didn't:
- live in #EDGEland where only #Dialup exists,
- wasn't from an impoverished household where they didn't have the money to even go to an Internetcafe and
- didn't barely graduating 9th degree, but had excellent grades and eligible to enroll at a university.
AKA: Someone who should be able to RESEARCH stuff within their next 3-5+ years and publish it as a professionally reviewed paper!
Life with #dialup is such a distant memory. What did we do before ultra-fast fiber internet. Just downloaded the entire IRIX 6.5 and 6.5.30 CD sets plus applications discs from a buddy's server over lunch. :D
