    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    Barrier is really information / knowledge...  I blame the morons spinning up 2 hours invested companies and I blame customers dumb as a can of paint who do no research and buy the lowest price in the room. Panels and how-to docs have lowered the baseline barrier.  Companies operating at...

    ARM has legs. Real world use.

    Those numbers in that... The XU4 model still continues to trounce the others and looks pretty nice.  I need to find a deal on an XU4.

    Anyone running solar powered stuff at home?

    78 watts is a ton of juice for a small solar setup.  You have more watts lost on DC-AC-DC conversions too. Have you got a meter to measure your solar inbound watts?  Or do you have a controller that measures that data?

    Anyone running solar powered stuff at home?

    Any idea of which dongle / chipset? Amazon is fine :)  I just personally am not a fan of Bezos nor the churn and burn of Amazon employees.

    Anyone running solar powered stuff at home?

    That's pretty cool on the SDR.  What sort of dongle is it and what is the tuning range you achieve with?  Antenna is internal ehh?  Thinking about an outdoor one? I was contemplating a SDR setup and being an optimizer I thought something similar to what you have there.  But the USB would be...

    Anyone running solar powered stuff at home?

    Looks good... Need LED lighting :) No reason not to use it these days unless you need something really bright on the cheap from retail location. What are you tuning on the RTL-SDR?   Using Linux for that too?

    Fiberhub Website has been infected....

    Repeat after me, WORPRESS NEVER GETS EXPLOITED.  It's the plugins ;) Everything gets exploited.  More marketshare, higher value target, that simple.

    Anyone running solar powered stuff at home?

    Baseboard heat is downright pricey today especially compared with the ever sinking natural gas prices. Location is allegedly everything in real estate, that's why I am headed to uber rural :)  I prefer wood heat and living simple.  You lads can keep the city amenities.  I'll be on the front...

    Seagate faces class-action lawsuit over 3TB hard drive failure rates

    Let us hope.  I've been stung by Seagate so many times that I won't take a free drive at this point. They need to get held accountable.

    Anyone running solar powered stuff at home?

    Becoming a necessity here in the United States also.  I mean upgrading gear and reducing electric use is costly itself.  Still have the underlying monthly bill even in a slightly trimmed version. I've used electric for supplemental heating (common as only heat in the south).  The increase in...

    Seagate faces class-action lawsuit over 3TB hard drive failure rates

    Seagate has been lots of fails back to at least 1TB days. I won't buy any Seagate drive and haven't in past 3 years.  Last few I bought all failed way prematurely. Might be a flawed legal basis (i.e. Backblaze usage data) but the point stands and the bad press Seagate will get, will slump...

    Dacentec - Unreliable Network Ran by Amateurs - Recommendations

    I am of the unreasonable school of belief that goes like this... I expect to get crap for this [rant and ramble mode ON]: * Customers don't set the prices, the seller does in order to sell and attract customers. * In the cheap world, companies are notorious for trouser drops to make sales...
