Someone should write-up some good tutorials... Just sayin'. Been wanting to set up my own mail stuff for a long while, more as a learning project than for privacy reasons, but it can be both now.

"Sir, this fellow appears to be connecting to a remote server in Iceland quite often. What should we do sir, I feel it is suspicious?" --- "Lets go pay him a visit and go Patriot Act all over his ass. You did right by reporting this to us, you are a hero to your country." "Yes sir, understood...

But is it? I mean, what's to stop your average VPS provider from complying and giving some agency access to their machines? Not hard to see whats going on in VPSes once you have access to the host node with OpenVZ. Unsure what the process is for KVM and Xen, but that's just because I've not deal...

When I get some free time I'll look more into this, can't do too much now. Thanks!

Pretty sure Lavabit was hosting some Tor related stuff, including FreedomHosting and TorMail. Source: http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1jyzpl/i_have_been_forced_to_make_a_difficult_decision/ Do you guys feel safer now?

Woops! Forgot to post it! http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2013/08/06/EBxm4F8KJoDedq0i I've got a class 10 SD card in it too, IO is horrible. May need to 'offload' MySQL to my desktop and use the Pi for Nginx and PHP. We'll see, haha.

The social media junk has been removed, don't think it was ever really used anyway. Google stuff should be limited to analytics right now. May setup Piwik later on another VPS. Have 4 VPSes running for vpsBoard right now, haha. May add that to an existing one to not add an additional cost. Can...

 I'd eat both of those, if cooked properly. Used to eat at a Vietnamese restaurant and could get horse blood 'cubes' in your Pho, I thnk. (Soup) Forget what it's called. Tried it, it's... okay. Flavored by the soup. Had Tripe, the lining of a cow's stomach at the same place also in 'Pho' (or...

I think we should implement the 'colored text for sarcasm rule'... ;) Because Jarland is a intolerant asshole. Back on topic now...

But yes, on a serious note, I will look into replacing Google Analytics with a self-hosted solution. A lot of us (including myself) block most things anyway using Ghostery and Ad-Block Plus. The social media buttons will be removed (again). Scripts should be being served from vpsBoard again and...

Well, I can stop serving some of that from Google, which I have now. Should be requested from vpsboard.com instead of Google. Analytics may get replaced with Piwik, but data from GA can't be imported into Piwik as far as I know. Means I need to get a separate VPS just for analytics.

That's pretty cool actually. YubiKeys are great, I need to get another one for some other things, but the one I have to use for work is awesome. I can't login or do anything without it.

Speaking of fiber cuts, I always enjoyed this blog post on the level3 site: http://blog.level3.com/level-3-network/the-10-most-bizarre-and-annoying-causes-of-fiber-cuts/

Got motivated earlier, re-flashed my SD card and installed a local webserver. Looking for a pre-configured solution so I didn't have to strip down the stock Raspian install, I found this: http://coburndomain.net/forums/topic/249-raspberry-server-20/ Basically a minimal Debian distro with Nginx...

How long until KVM in the UK?

More project domains than I need. Actually just bought back a domain that I sold off a couple years ago for a project, that the new owner didn't do anything with and it became available again. A few domains I've been renewing for years as well, with nothing yet, but ideas for them.

Trying to think of something to do with my Digital Ocean box that I bought on a whim. Figured I could use it for a server monitor while I decide if I want to use DO for production stuff or not. Anyone care to recommend a good server monitoring solution that'll monitor the resource usage of my...

Just got this email: I literally ordered this domain last week, have never used it, never used it as a hostname, still points to Namecheap DNS. I decided not to use it as I wasn't aware I couldn't enable WhoIS protection on this particular domain, so instead I ordered a random 3 character .PW...
