To say they were horrible would be to admit I wasted $15 on them trying to get a working budget machine. After two weeks and no bootable box, I wrote off the box and didn't even bother trying to get a refund because I wanted absolutely nothing els…

(Quote) Just tell them so they know to set it so you don't kill the hypervisor with spurious logfiles. This really isn't that hard to do, and you'll get hated less when it's tracked back to your VPS.

(Quote) Adblock for YouTube on Chrome and Youtube Vanced for Android do a pretty good job to nullify that.

It's more than plausible, but you should learn how to handle QEMU directly, boot a low-impact hypervisor and spin off your various VMs. I've done it with an aging i7 for years, and it works great- provided you have enough RAM and disk I/O isn't the…

Are backlinks still a thing?

(Quote) As well you should. Just keep in mind that they're one of the cheapest options, and I have no idea how they make money.. but before they refined their monitors, I got a nastygram for doing an OS install reformat. It's nowhere near that l…

(Quote) Just so you know, you'll eventually get asked to stop it, or get turned off. That still impacts others, and once the smoke clears, smackdowns for overuse will be noticed on a per-VM basis. Since there's no non-realtime way to monitor you…

(Quote) Just like getting on the highway at peak times. Wait it out a couple weeks and everything will be back to normal. Abusers will be dealt with, and the rest will be comfortable within their new digs and will have to fall in line. My watch i…

I'm a bit nuts with how I handle mine. Most of my important shit is external. I have 4 places across the world with 3 different primary transits for DNS. Mail is external, but sync'd to another location on RAID1 just in case- I haven't lost anyth…

(Quote) Should, but haven't tried.

Most don't. It's annoying for admins to deal with, and makes work a little more difficult if they're not already setup to handle this. That said, I ran n+1 (where N=last) as a backup using HE+VirMach for a couple years in the event of everything d…

@foxone There isn't one for OpenVZ, but you can install Debian and use this script- https://gist.github.com/trimsj/c1fefd650b5f49ceb8f3efc1b6a1404d

(Quote) A shitty dedi is almost always better than an oversold VPS when the provider doesn't manage it properly. I wish I had jumped at that @Dedispec special, but I really don't care enough to do so because I don't really need tons of bandwidth an…

(Quote) Just send them a friendly note that you did this. The TCP fixup notices spam the shit out of the hypervisor kernel - and it can't be turned off. If they don't set it to ignore these notices, you will be spamming the living fuck out of th…

(Quote) Probably not. I don't really have a use for them, and reselling at a loss to donate to charity takes a lot more effort than just giving the charity money outright. I <3 Virmach, but time is a lot shorter than it used to be.

(Quote) Or, you know, moving them onto thttpd on a 486 out of Kuala Lumpur with a 3GB Maxtor on dialup to get rid of the kids.

Nope. Still enjoying my watch.

I like my watch. Keep forgetting to use it, though.
