    How do you feel about the NSA spying?

    Not really, when you think about it.  When has government EVER done something more efficiently than a privatized competitor?  The DMV and Post Office are two examples of that.

    Why you disgrace Cooper like that :(

    Surface Pro.. Worth it?

    I won't touch anything Apple with a 10m pole on principle.  Typically not a fan of tablets/etc (they're just not efficient for real work).. but awhile back I picked up an ASUS TF300T with the keyboard dock.  Very solid tablet, and even despite Android it makes a pretty decent netbook.

    Favorite OS for your VPSes?

    I typically use Debian for my VPSes.  I did have Gentoo on one for awhile.. but ended up moving it to Deb as well (I prefer being able to update/patch/issue commands/etc to all of my stuff at once).  I do use Gentoo on a couple of home machines - originally tried it out for the 'challenge'...

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

      Cramming 80A of power/clients into a 20A rack...  :ph34r:

    Wagers: What other VPS companies does Colocrossing own / ghost operate

    Well, that would require tact :P  Plus, if you consider our Frantech/daIRC roots, we've been around longer :3

    What the provider means by saying NO to Torrents?

    Aye.  Blizzard almost had my respect for using BitTorrent to push out software updates... but let's be honest.  They were all on board for reducing their own bandwidth/hosting costs, not to help legitimize the protocol  :D

    What the provider means by saying NO to Torrents?

    You should ask the provider directly.  Some prohibit torrenting due to improperly configured clients/seedboxes abusing IO and Network.  Some prohibit due to legal reasons.  Some prohibit for moral reasons.

    Is HVH owned by Colocrossing?

    699$ for.. that'd be what, a 20A?  Either someone's trying very hard to recover a tarnished reputation, or someone's very strapped for cash and having trouble paying their bills and needs some quick income.  Given the typical "Lol there's nothing wrong about what we do" attitude... I doubt it's...

    How do I find a specific file on my VPS?

    Assuming you want the simplest solution - for a Debian-based OS, simply run the following: apt-get install locate && updatedb locate example.txt The above to be run as root, of course (or via sudo).  updatedb isn't autonomous - it'll run whenever called manually, or the VM is rebooted.  So if...

    Favorite OS for your VPSes?

    Been using Debian for a little over 16 years.  Won't touch Windows if I can help it.  Only other OS I'll use regularly is Gentoo.

    Thanks for pointing those out - both typos/accidental exclusions in the tutorial on my part.  Updated and corrected :3

    25.1gb/s attack incoming flood - advice?

    I doubt the booters/master themselves are being hosted there... but it would not surprise me at all if many of the filtering providers knowingly/willingly provided service to the kids running the booters.  After all, it would give them a bit of immunity from that particular skid...
