(Quote) Circular? As in virtuous circle, where the 75% is applied year on year?
-
(Quote) You state the facts, but not the sentiments. Does it bother you, keep you from completing (other) useful tasks? Do you get frowned upon when doing it in public, or are you more of a closet-VPS-buyer? As far as urges go, I'd say this is one…

(Quote) POP3 with Gmail is what I use - with all its pros and cons. (Quote) If I'm not mistaken, Relja got confused the same way as me, at first. @bikegremlin & @AuroraZero , correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you use Gmail as a central mail…

(Quote) Me too; three accounts most of the time, 'countless' identities. Works flawless in my experience!

(Quote) Ever since I started using Android. It takes some getting used to, but I've been happy with it for years.

Suggested format (feel free to get creative): (Quote) Virmach (Quote) BF/CM magicbox (Quote) Surprise (Quote) Surprise (Quote) $20/2 years (Quote) * Rounding it to five days of suspension, that is less than $0.50/hour for genuine trepidation a…

(Quote) That explains. I just reverted the machine running my bare metal OPNsense to the heavier one, because the CPU did not support VTx (Atom D525) and I preferred to have it virtualized. Switching to OpenWRT would not only have enabled Linux VMs,…

OK, great! It works :-) I reinstalled, and gave the whole line to the public key field in the admin interface. Thank you all for your patience and guidance. For the next time I'll remember: copy the full public key line
-
(Quote) Would you care to contemplate the bottleneck on the OPNsense side? It's a completely different stack of course, but both should be thoroughly optimized by now. More than double the throughput is quite a difference, even taking into account …

Two observations that escaped my attention before: * when adding your own key, only the RSA 2048 bits can be 'chosen'. My rsa key might be 4092 bits. * enabling key logins disables password logins; it is either/or, not and/and I went with a new ke…

(Quote) Ah, yes... Those started to look up after logging in with a password, but it turns out I'm not able to reset the root password, since on deployment I disabled password logins for this instance :-P The VirtFusion does seem to offer enable/di…

Hi, thanks for your suggestions! (Quote) By no means I intended to imply the functionality was broken. In various admin interfaces, I just never have been able to make use of it, so I am quite sure indeed that I misunderstand how it is supposed to …

(Quote) Thanks for mentioning! They even publish their app on F-Droid :-)
-
(Quote) Seems fun, better number-by-number specs than my VPS's, as far as amount of RAM, storage and number of CPU's concerned :-P I have not yet run postmarketOS yet. How is your experience with it, outside of repurposing a phone as server?
-
(Quote) I have fun, but not very performant experiences using phones as servers. Try it on 'regular' hardware, or a VPS: works super for me an my 'sphere of influence'. (Quote) I have zero experience running Apple OS's, but for Linux and Android I …

(Quote) Insightful and ... inspirational :p
-
(Quote) I idle VPSs at close to unsustainable rents, does that count as theft? My torrent-fu is not great enough to actually delete stuff from the seeders' storage while downloading, so I'd say that does not count as theft B)
-
(Quote) Yes, with ten minutes pre-sales chat and a full day as customer: no reason to look for another .se-registrar :-D

Mystery box: mine has specs a step up from the bottom, where of course I also hoped for a surprise that was better than the random 90% coupon elsewhere. Still, 20 dollars for 24 months of IPv4 and being free of FOMO... better deal than a lottery ti…

(Quote) All nice and friendly, but seeing it's past CM and waay past BF, could you _please_offer your services at sustainable prices? I already have a service running at a semi unsustainable recurring price, I'd like you to stay in business :p --…

This was my first domain transfer. While I have nothing to compare in person, I heard horror stories from acquaintances for other TLD's. I was not looking forward to it. It turned out to take about five minutes, starting the clock when I opened a t…
-
(Quote) I'll keep an eye on them for the next one, thanks!
-
(Quote) That would not give them a sustainable business model of course, and I'd have to start searching all over :-P I'm usually in less stress over a VPS (that I can backup) than over a domain, which is much costlier to restore if postponed too l…

I'm not the only one polishing the F5-button by repeated presses while glued to the status of their Mystery Box Product/Service page, am I ?
-
(Quote) Inleed just confirmed: there is no transfer fee, and not even a change in expiration date of the registration. I'll be going with them. Thank you all for your recommendations!
-
(Quote) 11 euro for renewals, that is quite a difference, thanks! (Quote) Good to know, thank you for vetting them! (Quote) Their renewals come at 125 kr, about the same as inleed, but than without a (findable) English transation ;-)

(Quote) yikes... one can run an army of VPS for that money!
