    Install Ghost Blog with Nginx and ModSecurity or Naxsi

    You hate node because there's no init script for it? You realize that it's just another interpreter like anything else on a unix system - php-fcgi uses a handler to keep it alive, just like perl fcgi and anything else.  You can create a systemd conf for ghost or any node app in approximately...

    Dedicated Server in the USA (West coast preferred, but not required)

    I've got this deal somewhere, I'm wondering if anyone can match it. I know a lot of people will probably think it's stupid to ask, but it can't hurt. Server: E3-1270v3 32GB RAM 2 x 2TB Drives 10 TB on a 1gig port /27 of v4 $99/m I doubt anyone can, but it can't hurt to ask. I'm willing...

    The "4GB for $7" match: DotVPS vs INIZ (OpenVZ.io)

    To be fair, one wget to cachefly doesn't represent a fraction of the actual network, and the E5 is a significantly newer processor than the X series Xeon that DotVPS has.

    ChicagoVPS Offers Shooters Targets

    I just bought 5, candid shots of some in odd places will commence when (if) I get some.

    I Have a Business Idea for a New Type of VPS...But No Cash.

    I don't want to be offensive, this isn't a good idea. By and large, if you go with a good provider on SSDs, disk I/O is not the problem - you'll hit RAM limits or CPU issues long before you exhaust I/O.  There's no target market for small amounts of storage on a ramdisk, especially not for the...

    First step: Geo database

    I suppose, but why not just give the user a list of servers and their location? That way they can choose for themselves, instead of relying on MaxMind (which is often wrong) and your calculations (which could easily result in choosing the wrong mirror).

    First step: Geo database

    This strikes me as a waste of time and tinkering (no offense) as a practical tool to speed a website up. It seems like you're basically planning on letting the end user hit your web server, then wait until you do all of this processing and send them, via HTTP redirect, to a server closer to...

    Linux For IMac

    The image from the app store will install on a fresh machine without issue, all you need is the image. It can be found illegally on the internet in many places - there's no serial or any other copy protection, you can install it w/o worry.  You can probably buy it at the SLO apple store on a...

    Customer service of EDIS

    It's definitely a language barrier - nothing they said was rude. Saying Hey! is a familiar greeting, it's nice.

    CC Buffalo down for 12 minutes?

    I've got my bouncer running on a dedicated server of mine in cc buf: [22:24:36] manacit signed on at December 28, 2013 at 4:37:53 PM PST and has been idle for 1 Hour, 59 Minutes, 9 Seconds Looks like I never disconnected, not sure if it was just a portion of their network or something?

    WD Reds 3TBs

    I'll offer $200 for both of em + shipping (to Washington State, whatever that may be). I'm sure I'll get outbid but hey it's a start!

    Colocation With Dedicated line?

    I believe if you read again, you'll find I said:  A "dedicated" 20mb line (which, btw, is not as small as they go, you can get a "dedicated" 10mb line) would get you 6TB in each direction per month. Not to mention, you don't seem to understand how full duplex works :) Nice try, though!

    Colocation With Dedicated line?

    Damn son, calm down, I'm trying to help. Chill.  If you go out and look for a gigabit dedicated line, you're going to pay a fuckton of money, and it won't get you what you want.  A "dedicated" 20mb line (which, btw, is not as small as they go, you can get a "dedicated" 10mb line) would get you...

    Colocation With Dedicated line?

    A dedicated line won't stop a provider from getting mad at you when you get hit with a DDoS - it still hits the rest of their network until you're nulled, and will negatively impact their other customers. You're better off getting *good* DDoS protection from a provider that does it in house, so...

    Security: New VPS Account Info and Emails

    I always set my password to something stupid, one time I did "rootpassword" because I was in a hurry. Usually I change the pass and disable pw auth completely after I get my key on there, but this time I forgot. Two days later it was suspended because it was taking part in Chinese DDoS attacks...
