    Zimmerman found not guilty.... Your thoughts?

    Just wait until the (in my opinion) inevitable Civil Suit. That will likely turn out MUCH different.

    Zimmerman found not guilty.... Your thoughts?

    Manslaughter would have been the appropriate charge, rather than Murder II. Had the prosecution pushed for manslaughter rather than Murder II, they may well have gotten a conviction.

    Power Outage: Residential

    I have a little solar panel + battery back that I can recharge phones off of if needed, and my family is thinking about getting a solar panel system for the house. My main desktop computer is a laptop with a broken built in screen, and a mint condition extended life battery. If it loses AC...

    KVM anomaly

    It seems like it's an OS Issue. What happens if you manually set init to 6?

    How is vpsBoard performance in your location?

    Its usually okay from the area of Salem, Oregon. Sometimes it takes FOREVER for pages to load, though I suspect it's because my ISP routes all outbound traffic through either Abovenet or XO.

    Review Needed

    Looks pretty good to me. I don't have a E3-1230v2 server to compare against, so... Yeah. But it seems to be pretty good.

    What would you recommend?

    @7ropics Neon is in development (but almost finished). It's coded by Justin Johnston, who's also working on Feathur (formerly BlueCP). It uses Nginx (speed!) and runs on Debian, but it will eventually have support for CentOS and other Distros (Ubuntu or other Debian based Distros SHOULD work...

    What's a good VPS?

    You're going to need a Dedicated server with that much CPU usage. An L5420 or 5520 would work great (or even a dual CPU server) would work wonders, and it would be WAY better than an OpenVZ VPS. OpenVZ is such a thread-switching nightmare on the host node, and the L2/L3 cache on the CPU(s) on...

    Vote for your favorite graphics chip manufacturer

    I like NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. Intel is good for when you just need graphics. Nothing super fancy, though the Intel HD 4600 and 5200 are supposed to be decent. NVIDIA is good for when you want power, but cost isn't a super big issue. AMD is also good for power, but when cost is somewhat...

    What are you doing for the 4th of July?

    I'll be at a rodeo, directing (likely mostly drunk) traffic out of the parking lot as safely and quickly as possible. And then patrolling. And watching my level of confidence in humanity drop rapidly.

    Reserving Disk Space you Purchased from the Oversold VPS providers

    L5420's are still pretty decent machines. I have 1 at WSI for my MC server. I also have a dual X5355 server doing media encoding and it handles it pretty darn well.

    Training to become a more valuable asset for hosting related jobs?

    I learned what I was doing on Linux. And how to write a good ticket response. I did a LOT of on-the-job learning. I started out not really knowing the specifics of the Admin side of HyperVM, and now I know (more or less) what I'm doing. I've also made huge gains in Linux SysAdmin skills.

    This is just not funny.

    It's pretty warm in Oregon right now. The one week of sun we get each year. Hitting 90's during the day (which, to us Oregonians, feels like the mid 150's) and its pretty darn humid too. AND my A/C is broken. It spins, but there's no cold air coming out :(
