    Opera - great but privacy sucks

    I use Midori on my RPi but for all other OSs I'll always use Chrome. I think I used Chromium once but switched back to good ol' Google for some reason. <3 Google. :)

    Removing 3rd Party "Spyware" from vpsBoard

    If given the option between an SSL and non-SSL version, I'll pick non-SSL because the site already acts up enough for me without adding extra overhead. :) I guess what I'm trying to say is DO NOT FORCE SSL. Additionally, I tried Piwik a while back and ended up switching back to Google...

    Help me decide, I'm torn between 2 servers.

    Support is minimal (although I usually get a response in less than 24 hours for non-sales/billing tickets). They are in my top 2 dedicated server providers, although one outage would probably knock them down quite a few places so I hope they keep with their current track record.

    You mean this joepie91? Sorry, I had to say it. :P

    Yet Another SolusVM Alternative: VPSM

    Luckily the first payment wasn't a whole lot (under $200) so it could have been a lot worse. The silver lining to this whole situation is that I've decided to code the VPSM panel myself and I'm more than 50% done with it (I've got it running on a test server and it's already integrated into...

    Virtualization Within Virtualization? Vmware -> OpenVZ?

    I do all of my development on ESXi hosts and the majority of my development is for OpenVZ so I run a handful of OpenVZ nodes as VMware VMs. Then again, the loads are minimal and the servers aren't using RAID so I cannot comment on performance for a production node but I can say I haven't seen a...

    Falling off the Grid

    I can bypass the incoming with port forwarding, the problem is they block the outgoing and if I used a small VPS for relaying, I might as well host a mailserver on it defeating the purpose of my project so my best bet is to throw the NAS in a cabinet and give it a dedicated IP and call it a day...

    Yet Another SolusVM Alternative: VPSM

    He won't respond to my messages or e-mails so I guess he's spent the money already.

    Yet Another SolusVM Alternative: VPSM

    If anybody is still in communication with DimeCadmium, please ask him to contact me. He seems to have disappeared once we made our first payment to him.

    Falling off the Grid

    I tried some iptables suggestions from DD-WRT's forum but no dice. It looks like I'll be moving my NAS to a data center anyways since port 25 is blocked by Comcast. :(

    Falling off the Grid

    Just setup the mailserver on my Synology NAS and it was the most painless process I've ever experienced. It uses Roundcube for the web client, but I setup IMAPS and SMTPS on my Android phone so I don't think I'll need the web client much (but it's nice to use on my home PC). Only issue I am...

    Falling off the Grid

    Also throwing this out there in the event you have your own hardware to use and want something free: ClearOS I install this on every one of my ESXi hosts as a simple virtual gateway but it can do a lot more if you want it to. I'd still go with Synology if you have the money for the hardware +...

    Falling off the Grid

    The android apps are nifty also. The DS112s look even better with a faster CPU.

    Falling off the Grid

    I just noticed they have a package for High Availability now. I might pick up another to play with. I like that in the event of an emergency I can pick it up and take it with me.

    Falling off the Grid

    It's all self hosted. They do provide a free Dynamic DNS service that I use for home though.

    Falling off the Grid

    My advice is look at getting a cheap Synology NAS. It's basically a Google replacement and handles everything from streaming content to e-mail to file replication/syncing. I have a DS110j and love it. http://www.synology.com/dsm/dsm_app.php?lang=us

    Anonymous Web-host shut down, owner arrested; Tor users compromised by Javascript exploit

    He doesn't run any forums that I know of. I would post his username but I don't have any of the IRC logs so I'd hate to post something publicly without having the logs to back it up. I'm sure there were plenty of others in the channel at the time so if they'd like to post his name I'll be happy...

    Anonymous Web-host shut down, owner arrested; Tor users compromised by Javascript exploit

    There's one member on here who argued for almost an hour straight with me and a few others on #leb why it should be decriminalized.

    Help me decide, I'm torn between 2 servers.

    I've been successful getting in touch with Mike directly via e-mail but I don't want to keep contacting him for support so I was hoping they would have somebody checking their help desk once a week. It's a shame too because it's been the best dedicated server I've ever owned with better uptime...

    Help me decide, I'm torn between 2 servers.

    Looks like I'm out of space on Server 1 and I've got a new project installed on Server 2 so looks like they both get to stay. Hopefully I can add another hard drive to Server 1 but it's been over a week since I opened that ticket. :(
