    LET Q1 2014 Top Provider Poll Results

    I never did IRC and god knows how impopular my posts are (I get attacked left and right not as bad as here, though). I do believe the poll is a community , not an industry one, therefore people hanging around have services from providers popular there and are voting for providers popular there...

    A scenerio and a question for everyone

    I do not know how accountants and law works down under, but in EU that will not work. They need to send an INVOICE, for said services of 15 AUD, it doesnt work just sending them over some money. and they will manually adjust the amount with another sum, it is simply inconceivable from the...

    Difficulties of a /64

    We are doing it for all KVMs, however, we only offer limited rDNS setup, i.e. you can ask it for a couple of addresses and not more than a couple of times. Also, all Xen's, including XenPower can receive an /64 upon request. Management is automated, users can get their /64 by filling a form...

    Do's and dont's for long time sitting?

    I agree about the blurry vision, especially since it is in one eye only, you must see a doctor. Might be much worse than you think.  As for posture, I sit in my hard bed crosslegged for hours. At my former job I was sitting in a chair and ended up with headaches and dizziness, this does not...

    We also have tunneled IPv6 there even tho have been promissed "next week" for many months. Looking forward for this, as we may finally start thinking about deploying iwstack there.

    Deep freeze

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3xRuEshUF3KTFZHMlp4aE4tdXM/edit?usp=sharing It is not even bad here, some people needed to be rescued by the army because snow was higher than the house: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=NE_44B_Imy8 Temperatures were not so bad, it is...

    Proxmox

    Lately I am always installing debian first and then adding Proxmox layer over it. I can say I never had issues with it, only one install has hardware raid, the rest software, all apt-gets working as they should, I also install quite a few other packages, for example, on the home server with...

    Whatever happened to Xen?

    As a Xen fan, I am happy it is thriving. It is stable, proven and the staple of experienced admins. I really hope 4.4 will force many people to ditch KVM, but KVM is not bad per se. From the marketing point of view, people which need enterprise-like features prefer Xen the LE* crowd is kneeling...

    Whatever happened to Xen?

    We were looking to replace OVZ plans (OVerZold) and the logical choice with low overhead was Xen-PV: XP4G - 12.68 Eur a month   6 vCPU 4GB RAM 500GB Disk space 6000GB Traffic included Compared to OverZold 8G it has MUCH more disk, 50 % more CPU, 3 times more traffic, but half the memory...

    Whatever happened to Xen?

    As you know XCP is discontinued since Citrix released the full version.  I wanted to use Xen as it allows for both HVM and PV bt there were issues with this mixed environment and without it KVM was easier to do. At that time we were already late and needed something to work as fast as possible...

    Whatever happened to Xen?

    It is alive and well, thank you for asking ! Prometeus just launched XenPower and was a smashing success even tho it is Xen-PV and we get tons of questions if windows ISOs are available... I am sure the 4.4 version of it will also be a smashing hit, I just hope it gets available for commercial...

    Down to 4 VPS

    TBH, I never kept a serious count of my VPSes. They are usually left to own devices except from time to time when I upgrade the minimal OS and 2-3 applications. I get reminders about payments and pay, otherwise. If I do a really hard count now I go over 10 that I pay, 2 in US and the rest in EU...

    BuyVM Legal Defense Fund? LOL

    Not yet the warning for the non-existant signature violation is still in place. As long as people get punished because their opinions are not convenient, it will stay there. It is also a reminder of how friendly the admins are in this friendly forum. It remains to be seen if anyone understood...

    BuyVM Legal Defense Fund? LOL

     AWS is certainly trustworthy and will always be more trustworthy than a small family business, nobody can compete with billions, agreed (despite failing hard now and then, even to social engineering because they employ humans too). People choose small business over big ones for entirely...

    BuyVM Legal Defense Fund? LOL

    It will not stop, this is the market, the wild-wild west of hosting. Literally cut-throat competition. What is most funny, is that the market (which was always a niche in the first place) is incapable to support even those with a big share, at least not so much as if they were doing something...

    Future VPS Company Dead Pool Wager Hall

    I actually said there will be big failures this year since half of last year. I wwould not go as far as naming names but i can easily guess the failure and aquisition rates will go higher as time goes by until somewhere in the middle of this year. Then I do not know but we are all in for some...

    You can still pay to the bank account. Taxes are higher, though, at least outside EU.

    Portable Batteries

    Using the solar panel might not be effective in the winter, however, on the beach where i stay all day due to my condition to benefit from the air, if kept at 90 degrees from the sun will pretty much remain charged all day. Sure, wont charge the laptop but it is enough for a regular android...
