Out of curiosity, besides the Swiss Franc, can you name 2 national currencies that continue to use a precious metal standard? Afaik, most countries explicitly moved away from such things because they like the ability to devalue their own currency if needed. This doesn't diminish the validity of...

That power is there to make phone calls in emergencies. You're also not paying for it. So moral issues aside, this is what you would do: Measure open circuit voltage across pins 2 & 5. Then switch your DMM over to current mode and measure short circuit current. If the line is smarter than you...

There isn't really enough information here to judge what you're trying to do. I guess you could do some static routes to send 10.0.2.16 via 10.0.2.15 at your router. That would cause it to pass through 10.0.2.15 on the way to 10.0.2.16. Then you would use iptables FORWARD rules or pf, or...

So it's just single battery charger input set to float charge to a battery, then a 12V input PSU on the back side w/ 12V, 5W, 3.3V out to whatever else? How much current does that setup draw? Does the PSU step up voltage when the 12V cells drop under 12V or does it just shut down? What's the...

Now that we're derailing the topic, what does your 12V output look like? Is it just unregulated output from the charger or do you use a pi/buck step down to regulate at 12V? (if a mod could fork us off this thread, I'd appreciate it.)

Most of the features of Proxmox are wasted as an end user platform since it doesn't support quotas at all. You can't reasonably grant the VM.Allocate, VM.Config or Datastore.Allocate privs. Maybe in the next few iterations that will get cleaned up. (And don't say DIY, because if you have the...

Consider sqlite. Postfix manpages regarding sqlite: http://www.postfix.org/SQLITE_README.html http://www.postfix.org/sqlite_table.5.html A guide that does postfix/sqlite/dovecot vhost email including premade queries and table schemas: http://rob0.nodns4.us/howto/

More pgrep, please: pgrep processname (see manpage for more filtering options, and there are a lot of them) see full info for grepped processes: ps -fp $(pgrep -d, processname)

edit: My language comprehension ability appears to be low this morning as you requested features specific to support/ticketing. The following is just general billing related, sorry about that.   Hi Pony. I realize this list is huge and some of it just isn't reasonable, but these are my...

My gateway has a ~/.ssh/config file full of alias entries like so: Host projweb     Hostname xxx.yyy.com     Port 2222     User acd Host home     Hostname xxx.yyy.org     Port 8282     User tw Host biscuits     Hostname W.X.Y.Z Host lc-preboot     Hostname xxx.yyy.com     User root    ...

My vote is for "keep it classy": no non-indexed forums. I can understand the reasoning for one but the use cases I can think of for it allow for undesirable community behavior, which I think is something worthy of avoiding. Justifying it as "we want to talk about things we don't want non-members...

Or for people who C.B.A. to help the maintainers: #!/bin/bash trap "" 1 while sleep 10; do   if ! pgrep -F /var/run/polipo.pid > /dev/null   then     /etc/init.d/polipo restart > /dev/null 2>/dev/null   fi done then background, and disown from bash and let it do its own thing.   I didn't...

As a community "thank you", here's an automatic push-conf-to-destinations setup for slaves, heavily borrowed from my nsd3/bind slaving guide on the buyvm wiki. Do not test in production environments, you will be made to cry unmanly tears.   requires curl and gawk (for gsub).   You must...

Now I have to change my damn password, thanks Aldryic  -_-

Granted I'm new at this game but I priced out this request for fun and just the dedicated cpu requirement comes in around 17 USD/mo (priced in a L5639 group at 8 dedicated threads, w/ 2A @ 100 USD/mo, 60W tdp, 2/3rds dedicated usage). Not including equipment amortization, depreciation, and...

You get less than half. I expect both companies (buyvm at least) charge data in both directions against you and there is vpn protocol overhead. I'd be extremely surprised if vpn providers did the same; a customer service rep would have a really hard time explaining/justifying to a customer why...

At buyvm, 1.25/mo (on a 1 year commitment) gets you slightly less than 250GB/mo of vpn transit and you have to maintain it yourself. Securedragon is ~0.92/mo (on a 1 year commit) for slightly less than 125GB/mo with the same management requirement. 2-5$ for pptp/ipsec+l2tp/openvpn with no...

Infinity, a couple perl/python/shell scripts to manage users/virtual emails go a long way to ease the pains of management. For me, setting up a new virtual domain is a one-liner using mysql to manage domains, as is user-to-virtual email mapping. I expect it'd take you a few hours tops to get to...

I've heard more and more people trying to attempt this recently, especially in buyvm circles. The problem I have is that integration is really hard! The synchronization features offered on my android are really good which makes it extremely difficult for me to step away from it to a self-hosted...

I'm not a lawyer, but I think under US law, since he is a web services provider, he had to have knowledge that illegal activities were taking place on his equipment to be complicit, or operate with the intent to enable illegal activities (for which Tor might just be sufficient). But since it is...
