My family had a Ruger like that one before. Unfortunately it was my Grandpa's and it ended up going to a member of the extended family. Damn that was a fun gun to shoot. I'm considering a Glock (once I'm 21 at least) because they're good guns. Of course, money is nice. Gotta support my...

If you're running KVM (assuming you're not using SolusVM), I'd recommend using Ubuntu 13.10 for your hypervisor. For the first part, it comes with a MUCH MUCH MUCH newer QEMU version (1.5 compared to .12), it has a newer Kernel, and overall it works much better. If you like being edgy, you can...

Given that KVM is basically QEMU (QEMU enhanced KVM), and since QEMU runs in Userland space, it's *possible* to run KVM under OpenVZ. I know it's possible because some clients try to run Windows XP in QEMU constantly. Now, SHOULD YOU? Oh dear god no. The performance would likely be trash. Run...

The issue with some cops not having the best accuracy is because they don't get enough training. WHY? Because money. Welcome to the world of politics. 

BlueVM runs Xen for our slabbed nodes we put small plans on. It works extremely well for our purposes. Xen-PV if you're wondering. It's less useful I think compared to OpenVZ and KVM for VPSes when it comes to features/price.

I hate it because of all the sites that say "HEY! WE HAVE TAPATALK! USE IT!" even when I DO NOT WANT TO. And they have NO way to make it shut up. 

I suspect the reason that providers DON'T publically say "We Slab" is BECAUSE of the public outlash like is happening in the clusterthread over on LET right now. People assume "slabbing == bad" without understanding WHY providers might do it. BlueVM slabs the nodes we put Blue0 to Blue1/2s on...

I jailbroke my iPhone and installed Tapashutup to make it go away. Now i happy :)

I've worn glasses since 3rd grade. Needed them since probably 2nd. About 2 years ago I switched to contacts and love it. Except when an eyelash sneaks in as I'm putting them on. THAT freaking sucks. I NEED glasses by this point if I'm going to be doing anything vision is required for, if it...

There's already a thread on LET about BuyVM. I need more popcorn. I ran out already.

I still haven't figured out how to use this $10 prepaid VISA Netgear sent me. Any time I try to use it it says "GIMME PIN". The hoops for a mere $10 are so annoying though.

My personal experience (consumer grade stuff) has been mainly with Seagate. Other than one failure due to a dropped laptop (it was an ACCIDENT!!!), I've never had an issue with any Seagate stuff. Heck, the computer I'm using right now had a 100GB Seagate 2.5" drive in it which has been going...

You mean NSABook?

They likely would. The noise causes vibrations in the drives as well as in the air, and given how close the read/write arms are to the platters, any vibration can be deadly. There's a reason SSDs would be perfect for use in space, in aircraft, and so on. SSDs have no moving parts, thus vibration...

@drmike Given my internet routes out through Portland, I agree that Portland routes can be lame. :(

Especially that "Common Sense" thing. I think it needs to be renamed to "Uncommon sense" given the rarity these days.

Perhaps we (in general) should first take care of the NTP issue, then after that take care of anything ELSE with large amplification? DNS is mostly taken care of. NTP is just now getting big. What's next?

Back in the days when I was first considering a Linux VPS, I was wanting a fully managed one. Problematicaly, none allowed root access so I didn't want to purchase. They should let you have root access at the least.

I don't think the majority of people know what a life is, unless it's something you can grow in Farmville on Facebook. 

Well shit. A CME hitting Earth would SO screw stuff up.
