Well, I'm running a PHP looking glass and Obserivum but that's pretty much it.  I've configured Observium to use nginx+php-fpm instead of Apache so that helped me a lot with CPU and Memory load. I figured why not monitor the monitoring server, I had initially installed it on a 512 VPS as per...

How long will Beta last?  I wouldn't mind trying something in Detroit.

Well, if you're provide will make you a snapshot that's probably the easiest way.  I usually just backup my config files that are important like nginx, php, etc.. You can do tar -cxzf backup.tar.gz /   to backup the entire file system but there is going to be some files that are not exactly the...

Do the servers have IPMI?  What kinda power do they suck down?

I have not experienced this problem but I'm sure you are monitoring far more servers.  I have an Observium install running on a RamNode 128Mb SSD, it is monitoring about 20 servers.

I'm on Day 3....I've found that, aside from right when I wake up in the morning and have my coffee, the day time isn't too bad. It's not until  night time when my cravings kick in and I lay awake thinking about the 24 hour gas station that's 1.5 blocks away.

Not entirely sure, half of their forum seems to be Russian.  

I'm really loving the KitKat Email app, it's essentially like the GMail app with the branding stripped out. 

I am.  I installed it to test the email system.  Only issue I have is with Outlook.com sending things to spam but as far as I know they do that with almost every mail that they don't have whtielisted.  Works fine with GMAIL and my other email servers.

Well, it's certainly easy to setup.  Took maybe 5 minutes max, compared to the hour cPanel takes on it's first install.  I'm working on getting a few WordPress blogs setup, I was going to run then without a control panel but I've decided to give this a shot.   +1 for supporting Debian! The...

Find out where they're incorporated and look into your legal options for finding forcing them to honor your contract or get a refund.  Canada has relatively good consumer protection laws.

Strange.   I haven't installed any Toolsbars or anything silly like that, in fact I just did a full system scan using two different anti-viruses.   This is what I'm seeing on failed lookups, and I certainly never saw this before.  I couldn't really find any info about it on Google so I'm at a...

Does anyone use Level3's public DNS? 4.2.2.1 4.2.2.2 I've been using them forever because they were always better then ISP default servers.  I know a lot of people are using Google's DNS now but I've found Level3 had a better latency in most cases, and since I've been using them for years, I...

I'm confused, are you looking for a list of companies who spam you with offers by obtaining your email from a hacked db, or.. ?

They don't, which is too bad because it was  an excellent program.  Many banks offering this kind of thing, I know Citibank does. Prepaid cards are a bit more tricky because if you go the regular route and buy prepaid visa's you'll end up with a stack of  cards that each have a tiny balance left...

I don't think a firewall will help you very much as most connections are probably blocked by the carrier.  Why do you need a mobile anti-virus?  Don't download any sketchy apps and you should be fine.

Very few VPS providers around here actually accept credit cards, even fewer process the cards themselves.

I drink a decent amount of caffeine throughout the day but when I really need it is the mornings, I'm not what one would call an early riser...  It's hard to do tech support at 8am, without caffeine I'd be telling people to "rm -rf /" just so I didn't have to deal with them.

I was okay with the hard drives, but watching the rack mount dominos made me want to cry....

OpenVZ is usually faster and works for 99% of cases, it's also generally cheaper because the hosts can oversell to a higher degree without having negative effects on server performance. I like KVM when I'm developing something, or if it's something I want total control over as a KVM VPS can be...
