    Need a new keyboard

    I have a tenkeyless no-legends one of those (with Cherry Blue switches) as my main keyboard currently. Also waiting on the current ErgoDox massdrop to finalize & ship; really, really looking forward to having a split-hand keyboard with mechanical keyswitches that is fully programmable. Plus...

    Increase vps disk space

    You could just store them all in pifs.

    Favorite current Linux Desktop OS

    NixOS, because I got freakin' sick of replicating environments from one system to another.

    Cyber-libel and Criminal Defamation

    ...Fuck, I read this and all I could think was "STRIFE SPECIBUS: LAWSUIT" before giggling uncontrollably for the next 30 seconds. I blame bad parenting.

    Which location would you choose?

    Speaking as an Australian, LA is actually kind of crap for us on anything real-time (e.g. computer games ;)). Obviously it's better than most of the rest of the US, and certainly fine for websites etc., but I wouldn't describe it as 'good'.

    Star Citizen?

    YESSSSS. Prompting jealous from people on the internet was roughly 95% of the reason I got them ;). Yeah, they did, but it's not as wallet-destroying buying them individually over a long period of time, thankfully. Mainly I just really want to see this game made & done right - the RSI guys have...

    Star Citizen?

    Had to go open up my hangar and check - I backed the original KickStarter at the Colonel level (Hornet F7C+), then have been adding stuff on ever since. In some sort of vaguely historical order: Hornet F7C+ (Colonel original kickstarter backer package), later upgraded via add-on to the F7C-S...

    Remote Desktop Manager

    I may have to suggest this at my work - our current setup isn't great, and being able to centralize connection details for a few hundred systems is pretty much our minimum requirement >.>.

    Star Citizen?

    I have a mighty fine collection of internet spaceships. Which reminds me, I need to download the Arena module in my VM at some point...

    What do you use your servers for?

    I'm still working on that first one, but I've got the second two down pat.

    Captcha for your ssh login

    That's what one-time password authentication is for. Not this.

    Stupid Question

    Depends on your outlook; if you take the perspective of a craftsman who takes pride in the quality of the finished work, then you're less likely to act that way from the start :).

    Work form home? Simple enough

    ...If you've got public IPs, isn't that what your firewall is for ._.?

    Work form home? Simple enough

    There's a 24/7 gym across the road and down ~30m from my house, I'm quite interested in remote/part-time work in no small part because I'd be able to make much better use of it then :).

    Nginx, MIME types and Firefox

    `/etc/nginx/mime.types` should have a line like "text/css css;"

    Self-hosted alternative to Tinychat?

    Doubt Jitsi uses XMPP for video conferencing - IIRC XEP-0272 hasn't gone anywhere yet :(.

    Backup VPS

    hubiC is offering 10TB at 10 euros/mo (transfers limited to 10Mbps IIRC).

    JuiceSSH Pro (Android SSH client) free until March 18

    I ran through most of the available options, ended up using Server Auditor. Terrible name, but nice app.

    Running haveged to enhance your system entropy

    wlanboy may have just mis-interpreted the data there - with haveged, you wouldn't see a slow, slight increase like that, you'd see it dramatically/immediately spike to >~1024 and spike back up there whenever it dropped below it. And yes, haveged will not work in OpenVZ. Also, in general you...

    RansomIT KVM 256 MB (Australia)

    Oh hey, our servers are in the same /24.
