For those of you familiar with the case, what are your opinions? While I think Zimmerman should not have followed or confronted the teen, he was within his legal right to defend himself the way he did and I'm glad to see him walk away from it not guilty. He'll have to live the rest of his life...

Long story short, I need to place an order for a router tonight. Doesn't need to be anything special, just something so I can get a few devices online. Needs wifi capability but I'll likely wire everything to it so a small handful of ethernet ports is needed. The one being used currently, I...

How have we not done this yet? Pretty common thread for a forum regarding anything internet related. I'll start: Price is $50/mo

Hey everyone, How is the performance of this website for you? Fast? Slow? What geographic location are you accessing the site from? What issues do you face when browsing/posting? Let me know how you'd rate the performance of vpsBoard so we can start making improvements where needed. Thanks!

Ah, one of my favorite TV series. Been re-watching it recently. Here are the actors making the announcement a few days ago: http://youtu.be/TwM4VLTk6bs The actors bought the rights to the show and will be filming season 8 soon. Hopefully "Corey and Trevor" make a return. They left the show...

What do you think the best password manager is? I know a lot of people use LastPass, while convenient it's still worries me a tad that it's all web-based. Are there any non-web based password managers that work with browsers to automatically insert and generate strong passwords? What do you...

Got a YubiKey in the mail yesterday which was required for a temporary job I am doing, but I don't know much about them. Looking around, I don't see any easy to follow guide on how to get it working with SSH authentication, though I imagine it's doable considering I use it to login to a...

Lot of providers here, and curious to know your background. Why did you get in the hosting game? What were you doing before? Think it would be interesting to learn more about everyone's skillsets and what brought them to starting or working for a hosting company.

Hey Americans! It's almost Independence Day! Anyone here doing anything cool? For those who don't know the joy of 4th of July:   Basically it's a day for Americans to be louder and more annoying than usual. If the drunken rambles while trying to speak over others isn't loud and annoying...

Curious what some of you here have done in terms of 'formal training' to become more valuable as an employee of companies. We've got many business owners here, though I suppose this thread would apply to a lot of them as well as I see big differences in skillsets from one person to the other...

Has anyone here used Cloudflare's Business Plan DDoS protection before? Care to give me a short review of it? Been browsing the web, but wanting to get comments on it from the folks here. How's it hold up to today's stronger attacks? The only thing that appeals me to Cloudflare for DDoS...

What providers are offering out of NYC with a good network these days? Looking for something specifically with a good connection to the UK and Europe. Looking for New York City, not Buffalo or New Jersey right now. NYC. SSD is a plus. KVM preferred, but will settle for OpenVZ or even Xen...

Anyone have any machines in TelX in their New Jersey location? How is it? Tell me about it.

Not very clean, nor practical, or impressive. But here it is, where I sit for the majority of my day. I know some of you probably have some pretty impressive setups, so why not share them? EDIT: Merged the two topics into one. ALSO: Moved, new place, new desk/setup. Latest update:

Curious to see how everyone responds. For me, right after logging in via SSH for the first time I just immediately do: apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y and then do whatever else I need to do for whatever I plan on using the VPS for. What about you?

Hey everyone, I think it's time we have a chat. I'd like to get your input on something. First off, I'm very thankful all of you are here. When people tell me privately, 'congrats' in regards to vpsBoard, I tell them I've really not done anything. This place was just sitting around more or less...

Forum was down for several hours while Martin and I got everything sorted. In short, we had to restore a DB from about 5AM EST, I put the site in matineance mode around 6AM(ish) so it was a slow period, not many (if any) posts were lost. Chat log from IRC because I am tired: 11:40...

Anyone utilizing IPv6 on a daily basis? I've got a slew of IPv6 addresses and nothing to use them for. What's everyone here use their IPv6 addresses for?

So, there are a handful of individuals out there working on VPS control panels, presumably as a SolusVM replacement. I'm wondering how likely providers are going to be to actually switch to a new product so soon? Me, I'd be personally afraid to start utilizing a product that is new and has no...
