Haha while IRC is known to be a honeypot for DDoS, I'd say for his current uses (private/personal) it'd be fine.  As long as no-one he brings onto his network is an unstable individual who will decide to DDoS due to emotional reasons it should be fine.   In terms of actual setup I hear tons of...

Not that I know a whole lot about this, but just giving you a basic idea in terms of traffic. My IRC Bouncer uses about 1GB (average) in bandwidth per month. Depending on how many leaves you have and how many people are active on your IRC Network (and bandwidth is cheap in Europe and parts of...

He asked for West Coast location, not East Coast ;)

Hm? Who where?  

There's also Kloxo-MR Available (a community member took Kloxo and continued maintenance on it).  

Just popping in here to say let's keep it friendly ;) 

Ehh I'd think of it this way.  Roughly speaking, would you rather have 4 E3 servers or 1 E5 server (Colocation costs, Hardware costs, Electricity costs, etc.)?   For a panel like that I'd suggest SSD as well.  I doubt it'd use a ton of space anyways, so rather get the SSD boost.

Ok well while everyone's answers are true I don't think they answer abyssis's question ;).   Ignoring the fact that you don't get the use of a full core, let's focus on the two CPUs.  Now for your purposes (LEMP stack is it?), either cores would be more than sufficient for any task.    For...

See for many people it's supporting the free speech and protection of whistleblowers.  They look at the positives and say "you have to take the bad with the good" and supports the TOR Project to allow whistleblowers to continue/do what they believe is right (they value helping whistleblowers...

Just re-iterating what SeriesN said, I wouldn't use/assume vSwap or even Swap as "guaranteed" (as you previously described).  It's just bad practice to use up swap all the time.  (I know it isn't really answering your question but I feel it important to reiterate it).  

I hate you. A while back I used to make this potato dish.  Dice up potatoes, onions, bell peppers, and saute them on a skillet with olive oil.  When sauteing add some cajun seasoning, a bit of chili powder, and onion powder.  When the potatoes are soft and start to brown crack a few eggs into...

See... I never liked Apple Products.  I mean the last product I have of theirs was an ipod touch (2nd gen).  They have a good brand but I just don't see the value in their products.  

In terms of bandwidth you're probably going to have to limit the port speed.  In terms of CPU and RAM that's actually a very good question.  Although I'd assume it's similar to how an OpenVPN can run on minimal resources (maybe a 256mb, assuming I'm going with "decent RAM" overhead?).  I'm not...

Howdy! Welcome to vpsBoard! Most of our hellos are here: http://vpsboard.com/topic/1-welcome-to-vpsboard-read-this-first/page-3 Anyways hope you enjoy your time here!  

That's the thing though. We're trying to find ways to be anonymous and not lie. You're assuming that being anonymous == having to lie but I think we can probably find a way around it (or hopefully). I personally see this as an issue.

I'm going to deviate away from the actual discussion real quick to just say something. I find this community great.  You know why?  Because there's people out there with several different perspectives and weight certain values differently.   AnthonySmith values the entire CC "drama" less and...

If I recall DigitalOcean is also in Choopa, New Jersey and they claim that it's just a few ms away too ;) I just think the State of New Jersey is gross.  

If How I Met Your Mother taught me something... New Jersey is NOT New York. New Jersey is... Jersey. Jersey is Gross. Fran don't go to Jersey. Jersey is gross.

Most providers don't have any issues with entry relays and transit relays.  It's the exit relays that many people do not allow and it's the exit relays that contains the biggest risk.   Some providers would prefer to stay away from that headache all-together and therefore could ban the use of...
