    Tips for an Upcoming Provider

    1.) DDoS protection isn't really needed by everyone. It's great for those who need it, but most do not. If you offer it, please offer non-DDoS filtered services at a lower cost as well. 2.) Also depends on the use. For a dev project, something not mission critical or just for deploying a VPS I...

    Sharing connection from Windows to Linux

    Nah, the old one physically broke. It's about 5 or 6 years old, and I have these slanted USB ports on top of my PC that are at like a 45 degree angle... So the device sticks up at that angle. A number of times my cat had jumped on top of my PC. It's been bending the USB plug for years, though it...

    Sharing connection from Windows to Linux

    Well, I ordered a replacement Netgear WG111v2 adapter the day I started this thread and had it show up the next day. That's the wireless device I had on my linux box and it served me well for many many years. Though eventually the USB plug got disconnected from the actual device. Sadly the new...

    Sharing connection from Windows to Linux

    By the way, I got this fixed. Had some time today after work to mess with it, and turns out all I had to do (as suggested) was disable the bridge, which that allowed me to select sharing options for the wireless device. Thanks everyone!

    Tunneling traffic through VPS versus VPN service

    What is better, and why? Seems like a lot of VPN services are abused which cause blacklisting of IPs and poor network performance. With a VPS, not so much, and you can just easily use a ssh tunnel or something like SSHuttle or even install VPN software on it. What would you consider to be...

    Burst.net Continues their Implosion!

    Woah, so from aside from their client base having short notice of the move their staff did as well? Are they expecting their staff to make arrangements to move on such short notice? To relocate to a new city, to pack their family up or leave their friends behind in a place they're already well...

    Multiple VPN linking/randomizer

    I've been a fan of SSHuttle (https://github.com/apenwarr/sshuttle) for a long time, I think @KMyers introduced me to it a couple years ago. At one point I do recall having two servers in the middle without issue, which led me to become curious about a wider setup. Curious if there is any...

    Malaysia Airlines Flight 370

    BREAKING NEWS THIS JUST IN: No one, anywhere, knows anything... still. Actually there was an article saying that they may have spotted something off the coast of Australia that may be the wreckage and they're sending a ship out, but it could be anything at this point.

    Burst.net Continues their Implosion!

    Haha, oh man. Feel bad for the customers. This is only slightly comical due to their recent issues and accusations during the VolumeDrive fiasco.

    Any wine drinkers?

    Good thing about box wine is after you drink it all and pass out, you can blow the bag back up for an inflatable pillow. Something tells me @MartinD probably fancies wine. I enjoy wine, but don't know enough about it to be able to hold a conversation or have a real preference. Last summer I...

    How important is the First Time Byte / TTFB?

    Someone today expressed their concern with their rating on http://www.webpagetest.org/ as it showed their First Time Byte as an F. Not super familiar with how this is measured or the importance of it, I simply Google, "First time byte". The first result? A Cloudflare blog post: Stop worrying...
