Regardless, why would you run MySQL instead of Maria DB? The install script is trying to do you a favor.

ATL here as well, can't even ping.

So, wait... this vulnerability was announced before and and CVPS did nothing to thwart it? Thank goodness I don't do anything serious on my VPS there - just couldn't pass on the deal - didn't even notice I was down until 24 hours or so afterwards, when they were sending emails. They've tried...

I've been eyeballing centminmod, since CentOS is our preferred distro. I just haven't given it a proper vetting yet.

I've never really been one for the domain game; if I own a domain I had an idea for it at some point (which is sad, looking at this list of domains). I cold-emailed the owner of EpicTrainer.com and purchased for $40 to be the launch of my roommate's son's personal training business. He never...

I wouldn't necessarily agree with it being slow; you do need to be much more cautious of what you're doing. You don't have all the freely available overhead on a mobile device, or network, to load 30 css files and 14 JavaScript from 5 different servers all over the world. Anytime someone...

I keep a /.ssh/config and /etc/hosts too, but no backups anywhere else? Nowhere detailing how to rebuild a certain box, what software / versions? I wouldn't be able to sleep at night...

I just use a Google Docs spreadsheet for the technical documentation (IP Address, hostname, initial root password, etc), the easily normalized data points, as well as a Google Dos document for what I call "Administrative documentation" which includes the data points that are not so easily...

This was my thought as well.. I was surprised people were promoting them so willingly. Digging through my email for a second... there we go, May 2008 their service was absolutely horrible - from a technical and support perspective. Let everyone take a lesson from that, I guess: it's been 5...

That's the fault of whoever you were buying from - as the buyer you should be mostly unaware of the fees. Wal-Mart has to pay everyone someone swipes a card, but they don't make me feel bad about it. That expense is averaged out over all transactions and into the overall price of the goods, just...

I use Stripe on a number of projects - anytime it's just straight billing to the client. Paypal recently changed their fee structure to match Stripe's in order to compete. I absolutely hate Paypal and, theoretically, I've owed them around $7500 for 11 years - client did a chargeback, I did the...

For development (at least for the web), period. Sure, it's trivial to get a LAMP stack up and running in OSX or any Linux distro; but that doesn't help much when I'm working on a Rails app at 11:00, then need to make a few changes to a NodeJS app at 11:37 and test the latest version of Jenkins...

I can't believe I found this... the Google-fu is strong today. I also can't believe: 1) less than 250 people responded, or 2) they are still giving them away and just have that line there to entice more action. This was easily a year ago, if not more...

I knew your script appeared to be a bit excessive, assuming CentOS 6.4 64bit: wget http://goo.gl/BLhej -O /etc/yum.repo.d/mariadb.repo sudo yum install MariaDB-server MariaDB-client sudo yum install MariaDB-Galera-server MariaDB-client galera sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start

It doesn't? Like I said, I haven't even read their docs yet (I've been way too busy since Google I/O), I was just referring to two-factor authentication in general... but, they have to be. If they are using the key only that's only fulfilling one requirement of two and surely someone would have...

Two tickets (and an aneurysm when support told me for the 5th time "iptables look fine"), I just cancelled. Another tech picked it up and he was actually amazing but couldn't identify the problem (I'm confident it's at their network boundary, from what I remember when it did work but it could be...

I don't see a problem with you encrypting and/or running licenses for those that pay monthly. Want it unencrypted and open? Pony up! "But what will keep monthly customers from just using the other version?" you ask? Nothing. The exact same thing preventing me from downloading nulled copies of...

I used to get them all the time. There's an Android app called PaperKarma that works on them as well as damn near anything else. Take a picture of your junk mail, tap a button and watch it disappear for free. I'm sure the company is selling my info, or hopefully just anonimized market...

Google Authenticator is a two factor authentication system: it requires you to provide something you know (your Google account credentials) as well as something you physically have (your phone, in this case). Historically authorization has been one-factor: something you know. Even key-based...

Sorry Anthony, and more appropriately mikho, it was a long and frustrating night. I realized the harshness before clicking submit but really didn't feel like going back through in an attempt to reword. I had some other business I needed to get back to but felt there were some important points...
