   Complete roms collection with fast bandwith

   You just have to register and get full access to an exhaustive list of roms. They post a report of antivirus scan, never see that before. Only the emulators are missing.

   👍 Pros:    Full of roms|Security disclaimer and report

   👎 Cons:    Need to create an account|No emulators|Anyone can upload

• What is the cheapest VPS Hosting?

  I have an 11 GB VPS with Windows on it, and it’s running perfectly. I 100% recommend this hosting, because of it’s pricing and support. I give $8.25 a month for an 11 GB VPS. Which would cost up to $55 a month on popular hosting providers like, Linode, Vultr, and Digital Ocean. Source: about 2 years ago

• question for any linode users

  Anyone that hosts a server using the cloud provider linode.com Do you encounter any limits regarding the CPU speed? Source: about 2 years ago

• Linux OS

  One of my best recommendations is to spin up a linux server in the cloud, you can do it for free for a few months from linode.com for example. Setting up an online server for a game you like playing can also be a rewarding learning experience for networking and Linux in general. Source: about 2 years ago

• A2, Krystal, 20i, Brixly or Mechanicsweb. Best one for resellers?

  Then you can buy a VPS from linode.com, katapult.io, contabo.com or hetzner.cloud, I'd recommend a 4gb VPS, and in order to run, it has to be over 2gb. For the OS, choose AlmaLinux or a supported version of CentOS. Source: about 2 years ago

• An 'unlimited' web host has been deleting my files without any notice or warning..

  Use VPS, don't use shared web hosting when you generate content as it tends to use lots of resources like RAM, CPU %, and storage. I'd recommend hetzner.com, contabo.com, or linode.com. Source: about 2 years ago

• Help!

  I do not believe Xenia requires a BIOS, haven't messed with it in years, it was pretty terrible the last time I tried it. Short of buying a faster internet connection no. You might find the games you're looking for on theromdepot it's usually much faster than Internet Archive, but they don't have everything (requires you to make a free acc). Source: over 1 year ago

• Retro emulator console

  There's a ton of them, some easier to access than others. https://theromdepot.com/ is fast and has complete sets for NES SNES and Genesis, and allows ftp access for batch downloads, it does requires a free account though. https://vimm.net/ is slower, dosen't allow ftp access, but they have a large archive, and don't require an account. https://archive.org/ has most everything but it's a chore to sort through...
