That table is actually for the older 430G2 Launchpad whose processor is in a DIP socket.  The new one (picture at the top of the thread) has a soldered-on processor with much more memory, 128k of flash and 8k of ram apparently.  The DIP socket one is nice for hardware projects since you can...

You mean running all the clients full time?  That's very standard practice on military radio networks.  You don't want the opponent to be able to know who is talking when or to who.  It definitely needs doing in the current regime of pervasive internet monitoring. :)

That would be 100tb each then.  Same issue. I think of setting up a VOIP switch for private voice chat. All clients would run 24/7 to prevent traffic analysis.  Not too much cpu since it's just UDP streams being cross-routed through an in-memory lookup table: all encryption is done at the...

No I don't buy anything with a rebate, even if it's a good deal without the rebate, since if I send in the rebate coupon I'm agreeing to all kinds of invasive bullshit uses of the data I send, and if I don't send the coupon I'm doing exactly what they hope for and thereby playing into their...

Hmm, people might be taking a while to get the client side sw set up before pm'ing you.  I might give it a try myself.

As mentioned earlier you'd have to transfer at 300mbit/sec 24/7 for the whole month, to use up 100TB.  I've never seen a VPS that could transfer at that speed, except possibly downloading from a CDN egress that was right there in the same data center (the usual cachefly test).  If someone can...

For experienced users, choosing a vps is less about plans and prices, than sizing up whether the host is competent and solid enough to keep the servers running for the advertised duration.  You're casting serious doubts on yourself at this point, since the questions you're asking are the type...

100TB/month is 300 megabits/sec 24/7.  Good luck with that.

It looks interesting but why does it need Qt on the SERVER side???  It's bad enough that it's needed on the client side.  Inside every one of these bloated programs I keep thinking there must be simple trying to get out. Are there any programs like this with no GUI of any sort, that just run...

lowendspirit.com is working really well, though it charges a bit more than the amounts mentioned here. The LES plan resources vary depending on location, and they are all about $4/year. $1/year sounds unsustainable since the slightest interaction with the user (support ticket or whatever)...

I'm posting this for a guy who came on IRC looking for a VPS to run FreeBSD (so he'll need KVM or similar).  He had difficulty with English and I figured there's probably enough interest that there should be a thread for offers with good connectivity to China and with Chinese language...

I think coinbase will buy bitcoins from you at the instantaneous exchange rate, so you can get the transaction through quick enough to not experience large swings with any significant likelihood.  If you do get a large swing, it's as likely to be in your favor as against you, and it has an...

MSP430 is a cute little processor.  Those boards never caught on that much, due to Arduino at the lower end and ARM boards above, but the TI's have their attractions.  43oh.com is the main hobby site for them, I think.  I tend to prefer really tiny boards like the Femtoduino (femtoduino.com)...

I'm for it.  I notice it's mostly what I think of as low-drama hosts offering it, though maybe that's because the ones with higher-drama clients know to stay away.  I guess bitcoin-using clients might split into those who don't want to deal with the bullshit of paypal, and those with enough...

OVH is still sold out, but according to one of their staff they expect to release their new Canada lineup in the next few days: https://forum.ovh.us/showthread.php/169-ETA-for-new-server-lineup?p=610&viewfull=1#post610

So that when the user deletes files and the corresponding decryption key, the data is gone and inaccessible, except to fancy data recovery techniques that wouldn't be used in normal situations (i.e. routine deletion of no-longer-needed sensitive data, not a case where the user was up to no good...

1) Tell them to supply their own drive instead of your lending/renting them one.  You can offer some for sale (they need one anyway) if they find that more convenient than getting one at a store, but either way it's their own drive. 2) If you really do have to lend out drives, maybe put them in...

Might be a nice Stallion feature to be able to encrypt the backups using a GPG key that the user supplies.  Of course that means you can't transparently restore.  The user instead gets an encrypted tarball that they have to decrypt themselves.

->They could use mcrypt with AES 256 CBC, store the encrypted data along with the IV, then upon the need of decryption , ask for the key to complete the process. Encrypting with a separate key from the decryption key is called "public key cryptography" (RSA, etc; not AES) and it's a reasonable...
