    BlueVM and the great labor rights of exploiting labor

    Now take that unease and multiply it by "some of our staff are teenagers" and you have Green Value Host.

    Running a web based terminal (ssh)

    There's at least one commercial service as well - http://gotossh.com/ Though I think people here are savvy enough to run their own instead of paying $50/year :-)

    Help me build a personal virtbox/playground

    i have an i7 with 32GB of RAM and I built it for less than $950 last fall as I recall last fall...but I already had case, hard drives, graphics, etc.  Since it's my desktop, I don't care about disk performance and I'm usually only using a couple VMs at a time so it's just RAID-1 with an SSD for...

    BlueVM and the great labor rights of exploiting labor

    Yeah, SD, BuyVM, and Hostigation were the three I was thinking of.

    BlueVM and the great labor rights of exploiting labor

    I can think of at least three high-quality LEB providers off the top of my head where this is not true.

    jdrhost moves out of lithuania

    ha!  I guess they buy their servers (or at least the clip art for them) from this host (who has one of the worst sites I've ever seen, starting with broken SSL): https://buymyvm.com/

    Automated "am I blacklisted?" check?

    So that checks Spamhaus...there are many others. The script is conceptually trivial to write - it's just a lookup.  Just wondering if someone already had a tool (with a maintained list of RBLs, etc.)

    Automated "am I blacklisted?" check?

    I'm looking for something I can run as a cron job that checks if any of my IPs are blacklisted. There are online tools but I want to script something that will check and email me.  Before I invent it...does something like this exist? (To be clear - there's no reason they should be blacklisted...

    Share a filesystem (like nfs) across the Internet

    If I say in iptables that only certain IPs can access that port, then I can only ssh from those IPs, right?

    Share a filesystem (like nfs) across the Internet

    What do you use to share a filesystem across the Internet? Like nfs, but  works on OpenVZ works well across the Internet In other words, server1 shares /foo and server2 mounts /foo and can reader/write to /foo. sshfs?  My only concern there is that I believe it runs over the ssh...

    Where's my swap? (A "how does vSwap work" question)

    OK, I did read that :-) But I was asking about the container OS.  Now that I think about it more, I guess the shared kernel knows that if it exceeds RAM and needs to swap, it shouldn't look at normal Linux swap config but rather the special OvZ setup.

    Where's my swap? (A "how does vSwap work" question)

    Well the wiki says vSwap... http://wiki.buyvm.net/doku.php/plans?s[]=vswap Do you use vSwap on your plans? As of June 2013 all OpenVZ plans support vSwap. All virtual servers have been retroactively updated to have a 1:1 ratio for memory:vswap.

    Choopa sends out Vultr to drown in the DigitalOcean

    The name alone will keep me away. Is there any positive connotation to "vulture"?  Nope. "We are hoping to pick the bones of DO once it goes belly up?"  I guess that's what they're trying to say. And btw, what is with people using TM for trademarks they haven't registered?  Another reason to...
