Is any provider hosting Redstar OS 3.0?

I would like to give it a try, hourly billing would be good.
Willing to pay at most $3/mth, only need it for a while anyway.

Just list your offers here, will contact ya when I need it.

    Someone just saw the talk at 32c3 wha? ;P Isn't it 0:30 am at your place right now?

  • Vultr allows custom ISOs. $5 though

    Probably @ValdikSS know more about that System?

    For your request, just use a provider that accepts custom iso's.

  • Just boot it on a local VM.

    Wouldn't take the risk of booting it on VirtualBox.

    (and probably, it's blocked on my computer (hey, thanks school!). fml.)

  • What risk? Why wouldn't this apply to a provider?

  • @tehdan said:

    Don't need it pinging back home, although the address would be unreachable.
    Pretty scared to try it on my own computer regardless, so yeah.
    Rather have some provider host it for me, since I only need it just for fun.

  • I think you're over-reacting. But given your estimation of the risk, you're saying you won't do it locally, but you're happy to expose a provider and your node-neighbours take the risk on your behalf?

    I know a perfect provider for asshats like you... Oh wait, they just deadpooled :(

    I've just done this on a local VM and can report that there is no outgoing network connections other than to those that i opened (web pages etc.). That was the server ISO bridged to my wifi connection on my laptop and just used wireshark to filter all events coming from the VM's IP.

    Did not mean that. I have heard the talk at 32c3 about it, saying that it makes requests to hardcoded local IPs, which is a good thing to hear, but still, I won't do it on my own computer.

  • If you won't do it, what makes you think it's okay to do it on someone else's machine?

    It is available on public torrents a few hours ago.

    Also, interestingly shown during 32c3...image
    Why not just get Fedora instead? :P

  • I'd trust North Korea OS :) ... Free spyware cooked in kernel.

  • We only provide Redstar for the operating system.

    Really? That is a different market.. Good luck with that.

  • No one will be hosting this OS easily.

    Indeed, it's clear that RedStar was not designed to be used outside the country, because the operating system's internet browser points to internal, North Korean IP addresses, as does the anti-virus update server, which can't be accessed from the outside world. (There is also a server version of RedStar however, that is used to run two public facing, North Korean websites). The applications are likely made by ten different developers: the researchers found the internal email addresses of different coders within the operating system's changelog.

    It is a law in our country, that is the only OS we are allowed to offer.

    Could you take your trolling somewhere else? Thanks!

    You're a funny guy.. Not. Can we please get a ban @Jarland?

    Maybe. NK however seems to be isolated and barely connected to the internet. Can't see VPS / hosting being a business in NK with leadership control and instituted government poverty.

    ...why...not

  • @theroyalstudent, any provider with custom ISOs should work fine :)
