    How was your memorial day weekend?

    Was also my birthday weekend, so I went camping and drank Brandy in the woods. Steaks were cooked over a fire, a can of chili was warmed over a fire. It all tasted like sweet freedom and liberty and for that I am thankful.

    What do you use your Raspberry Pi for?

    Haven't had much time to do much with it yet. Tonight I will certainly fuss around with it a bit more. It's here!

    offended by "Balls Out" ?

    I saw the promotion and just thought it was some sort of inside joke that I was outside on. I still don't get it, but haven't thought about it again until this thread came out.

    Linode Managed! Very reasonably priced!

    Meh, Linode isn't targeting the lowend market so $100 a month for a no-nonsense, fully managed service isn't that bad. I'd pay it, if it meant I could just log a ticket and ask them to do stuff for me that I don't feel like doing myself.

    What do you use your Raspberry Pi for?

    Yeah, I saw that... Interesting read really. Elaborate setup by the sounds of it. Who said geeks don't get any? Well, actually, I guess his pi getting some. But he gets to watch and fine tune it, haha.

    Namecheap Domain Registration/Transfer for less than $1!

    Internet.BS is likely the one with the lowest non-promotional prices. It's where I order the bulk of my domains from. Other than that, you can often find a coupon for GoDaddy but I try not to support them if I can help it. Plenty of better registars I'd rather give my money to than them.

    What do you use your Raspberry Pi for?

    Yay, mine will be here tomorrow. Still not 100% sure what I will do with it just yet, but will certainly find something. Anyhow, it will be an excuse to go buy some Legos so I can build a case for it...

    What do you use your Raspberry Pi for?

    Well, I've been putting it off for too long and had to jump on the Raspberry Pi after this Reddit article resparked my interest in it: http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/1f607z/owners_of_a_raspberry_pi_what_do_you_use_it_for/ Some really awesome examples of just what this tiny device can...

    Good resources for strengthening beginner Python skills?

    I've dabbled with Python, having done about half of 'Learn Python the Hard Way' (http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/) But due to time constraints, it's been well over a year since I've touched Python. I remember it being enjoyable, and perhaps it was the ADD in me found myself venturing off...

    A VPS index / database

    That's actually a really neat site and resource. Would be nice if there were more sorting options, however. Though I think alterarch's idea is pretty great too, and would love to see it developed. So what if ServerBear exists? While it's a great site, competition encourages innovation.

    Round Load

    So will this be for a sort of CDN or caching of particular types of files? I understand if you do not want to go into much detail, but at the very least we would need to know what you're looking for in terms of service, whether it be a small VPS or a medium-large one.

    Anything noteworthy different from 3.6 to 3.8?

    My VPN IP requires me to type a CAPTCHA code to use Google search.

     I could just use DuckDuckGo or something else. Honestly, it's just because Iceweasel and Chromium both default to Google when I just type something into the address bar and hit enter. Maybe we should just use bing? I'll show myself out.

    What did I miss? (Deleted LET thread)

    It's http://billing.urpad.net :) About the other issues, I'm not 100% sure what was going on but it appears they goofed something up when they moved the billing portal over to one of the servers in the RLT cage that is local to them. Though within a couple hours I believe it was all sorted out...

    LowEndTalk Thoughts

    But yeah, in regards to LET. It's already on a downward path. I don't think it'll ever cease to exist but it's quickly turning into a DigitalPoint/HF hybrid of a craphole. Can't post something off topic without it being closed and told to put into the cest pit. They still remove threads without...

    LowEndTalk Thoughts

    I'm sure all the CC hate will die down soon. It's still fresh on a lot of people's minds. There are a handful of good companies that operate with some CC locations in the mix, so I most certainly do not want to see people/companies get treated poorly on here because they do business with CC...

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    Holy shit. Yesterday my sister had her first 'cage match', and she won in the second round. I just watched the video. Beat up this other girl after like 12 punches to the face and then damn near ripped her arm off. I'm afraid of my sister now.

    My VPN IP requires me to type a CAPTCHA code to use Google search.

    So, I've recently gotten a new VPS that is 'closer to home' to be used as a VPN. It performs great, however I find myself having to enter a CAPTCHA code quite often when I use Google. It's not always, but it is required most the time. Now, I understand they do this as they believe it's an...
