Had never thought of it this way, but the analysis is interesting... https://finance.yahoo.com/news/jp-morgan-cryptocurrency-market-looks-like-pyramid-scheme-183008361.html

I read the change list but didn't see anything major...nothing as major as moving from 7 to 8 with systemd fisting its way into my life. In fact I didn't see much in 9 that looks like that big a change. It's nice to have MariaDB 10.1 come in a major milestone release. This is irritating: "The...

I don't have any managed hosting at the moment, but when I did, I was always curious about how shared root was handled. I've used both KnownHost and WiredTree (pre-Site5) in the past. Both gave me VMs with root, but they were managed. So if I had a question about cPanel or something, they'd...

Well, 75% of the thread subject line is true. @KuJoe has been working on rolling out KVM for Wyvern...got this today: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We know we haven't been sending out a ton of announcements like we used to...

Because I'm curious: (1) So vpsBoard moved from IPB to XenForo. Why? I know you've groaned about IPB (and I have some negative stories of my own time adminning it) but I'm curious what specifically drove the move. (2) I'm sure XenForo sells/offers a converter but still...I'm amazed it...

I've looked at: - Elegant Themes (long time subscriber, they seem to be all Divi all the time these days) - StudioPress (have heard mixed reviews of genesis) There's also ThemeForest, MojoThemes, etc but I'd prefer a studio that provides support rather than a large market where you...

I have Jira setup and running on port 8080.  Let's call the server webserver.domain1.com.  If I go to http://webserver.domain1.com:8080 I am into Jira. I want to be able to go to http://jira.example.com to get to Jira.  I do not want to enter the 8080 part.  Note that example.com is hosted on...

Have a new team now that is spread out geographically and am looking for something to manage our workflow.  I know people ask about these things periodically and yes, I did search, but the landscape for these tools changes every few months. Details: - we're admins, so I'm not tracking...

http://users.ece.cmu.edu/~omutlu/pub/flash-memory-failures-in-the-field-at-facebook_sigmetrics15.pdf I admit I was lazy and just read The Register's summary: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/06/22/facebook_reveals_ssd_failure_rate_trough/

You synology folk...what speed for read/write do you see on your Synology? With the following setup... Synology DS215j with 2 x WD 6TB Red drives in RAID-1 NetGear DS108 gig-E switch Either an OpenBSD i3 or a Linux i3 connected on same switch ...I see 30 to 35MB/sec write or read.  CPU on...

I'd like to subscribe to some amount of cloud storage (say, 1TB) and mount it so it appears as a local FS...like nfs or something.  Prefer Linux but could do it on Windows. I am not looking for a "sync" option...in other words, I don't want to consume 1TB locally so I can mirror 1TB to the...

What I mean: The spinning sometimes never goes away.  On other days, the notifications show fine.  I'd say it's about two-thirds endless spin.  Curious if other see the same thing.

Interesting: http://blog.ghost.org/year-2/ Not a fan of Ghost myself, but interesting break down.  The Ghost.org domain was bought for $33K.

I religiously backup my VPSes.  I've gone through several evolutions in thought regarding the best way to do this, balancing security, bandwidth, and efficiency.   How do you backup your VPSes?  Below are my thoughts.   The Basic Requirements/Assumptions Backups need to be off-site, not at the...

One of those "I never knew it could do this" things.   Starting vim with the -x flag will prompt you for an encryption key.  After you enter it twice, vim will encrypt the file.  If you later vim the file, vim will discover the file is encrypted (because a magic is prepended) and prompt for the...

I have some VPSes that don't need ipv4.  They're backup servers, monitoring, etc.  So I was thinking of turning off ipv4 (inside the VPS - I am not the provider). Mainly doing this just so I'm using ipv6 more and to get more familiar with it. I'm wondering if there are any gotchas, anything...

This is so true...

I yum'd httpd on a new Centos 7 box and when I did a ps (after systemctl start), I see httpd -DFOREGROUND What is that? If I change this in httpd.service: [Service] #Type=notify Type=forking #ExecStart=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -DFOREGROUND ExecStart=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS ...then it's...

A cousin (who also works in IT) asked my wife, "do you think your husband would want this?" "Probably," she said. A couple hours later, I'm pulling it out of the van.   48-port HP ProCurve 8000m.  Only bummer is that all the ports are 10/100 - no gigabit.   Haven't turned it on yet...
