High time for a return of vetted webrings! They were valuable for finding useful sites when the web was much smaller. Even though the masses flock to the few walled gardens, the total amount of small dedicated sites must have grown when compared to…

(Quote) That is much more than 'some pointers', seems very doable. Thanks for taking the trouble!

Thanks all for taking the trouble and reply so quickly! MXroute - (Quote) ... that's quite unanimous ! I should have used an ordered list of course; options 1 (new IP) and 3 (use the mail functionality of a hosting package) are out. Option 2, 'rol…

Thanks for sharing your project, exiting times :-)

(Quote) I was under the same impression as @imok , but yeah, could have realised based on the above. Now I'm not sure whether I stacked up on Microcredits or Yeticredits end of last year, expecting them to be interchangeable. Will see/find out. T…

(Quote) PBS suffers under high latency connections, is that the only reason for rsync? @imok , how is your PBS faring?

Had lots of fun, thanks!

(Quote) They will indeed, and you can let it idle at your own peril, but you get what you pay for. In this case, the offer seems to be "dedicated root server", while the product seems to be "shared hosting". If I rented a cabrio…

(Quote) ... and carefully keep the URL secret, in fear of DDOSing the site by visits from all 25 readers of this thread...

(Quote) So far, I'm happy with the transparancy. I prefer an acknowledgement of possible more than wanted downtime, but with zeal to get better, than statements of shiny datacenters with only downtime as proof of the opposite. One has to start som…

(Quote) Is the new avatar part of the game?

(Quote) Quite so! They seem to have been used as heavy duty door mats :-P (Quote) Even so, you could have taken a swipe over the front of your hardware and used a black marker to touch up the worst bits. My lab may not be spotless, but there is 0 r…

(Quote) Is the data moving? At work I fill 95% of my chair, but as long as I'm not moving it's counted as 'idling'.

(Quote) That is a HUGE sub(scription). Or they have been torpedoing toy ships with it, what is it on the sea floor there?

(Quote) He wouldn't ram his Porsche into your server room, would he? (Quote) Luckily enough, those innocent people hired you to cover their lack of acumen in this regard. Do you get paid for your services? Could your task be described as "mana…

(Quote) +1 for that suggestion if price and flexibility is of any concern. Your post has a hard requirement for a /28 or /29, without saying whether you need these 5 or 13 IP's need to be in the same subnet for one reason or another. My ISP used t…

(Quote) Up we go, from Lowendspirit, to Loworbitspirit! It's about $0,33M to get a cubesat up to a low orbit. If we can get a WiFi extender installed on it and pack it with 5x RPi 16MB and share the costs as prepaid option during the next BF-fren…

(Quote) Ah, I totally misinterpreted the topic title, expecting a request for lower than usual specs ("Below lowend"). Does 4 core Genoa / 8 GB RAM count as "low end" these days? ;)

(Quote) Yeah, a shame. I liked the implications of the name a lot :-D

(Quote) Trying to put a decentralized and often non related places under one regime or one rule is just bad, really bad. People Companies keep trying though, and for whatever reason, users consumers keep falling for it, more and more. Some governme…

(Quote) ... and (Quote) is also very considerate. (Quote) ... and never had a problem with any of them The (closed by now) NAT "mini" VPS in Japan was the first VPS I could afford, back then. Thanks for all the fish, it has been a plea…

Thanks for the write-up! @imok , please do report your experiences with (the after all these years still unofficial) Proxmox on ARM!

What, no poll? Mostly Debian; in case of GUI a preference for QT based DE's.
