Gives warning for CPU cooler fan mounts incompatibility, and place in the housing - which is great! :)

My opinion. Not a hosting provider so mostly (un)educated guessing: 1) Reseller hosting prices were affected. Number of cPanel accounts you get for the price and/or removal of unlimited account number hosting offers. That's where the price increase…

(Quote) Haven't tried. I use KVM switch so one monitor+keyboard+mouse can be used to control several computers, in different networks, but never used more than one monitor on my computers.

(Quote) Similarly. Gave Linux a try for desktop / home use a couple of times - didn't stick. But with Mint - it just works. Very idiot friendly. Almost as good as Windows in terms of user interface. :)

(Quote) That's some good advice - from the both of you. Thanks. However, my idea was to simply ask for the VPS recommendation here, when the time comes. I find this forum informative, helpful and trust the knowledge and experience of many members …

Question: My country has good Internet link with Germany, decent with the UK and the US. Most of the servers I use are in Germany, UK and US east coast. In terms of upload/download speed, if I go with a VPS for VPN, does it matter where the VPS serv…

Just to "publicly" thank everyone for offering both advice and help setting up a VPN using a VPS. Both in this thread and using private messages. I really appreciate it and will most likely get a VPS - if not by the end of this year, then…

So, to confirm I got it right: your original note was related to configuring DNS for a website hosting server that doesn't have a static IP? Not a way for me to have an "outbound" static IP when connecting to on-line services? If that's th…

(Quote) This is beyond my current level of comprehension. :(

(Quote) Thanks. Really appreciate it. Been thinking of playing with a VPS for some time now - it's just the hectic schedule that adding one more, small, simple thing... will probably turn out to be too much. Still, considering putting off dedicate…
-
(Quote) It's not crucial, but it can make life easier. One example: SSH connection for some (shared/reseller) providers requires to provide an IP address that is allowed to use it. So dynamic IP doesn't work. Similarly - whitelisting a single IP on…

Found Ivacy.com selling a dedicated IP for 2$ per month (and VPN at a discount of under 2$ per month). Are they any good?
-
That's cool for partying with 20 year olds - but not something I'd play otherwise. :) Helps that I don't understand the lyrics. :) Though even on those occasions, I prefer (when able to choose :) ) something a bit less awful (at least in my opini…

Bijelo Dugme was super-popular in Yugoslavia. Sort of a mixture of Bon Jovi (commercial, not really high quality music, but technically very good and super-popular) and Led Zeppelin (with some songs, experimenting with different styles, incorporatin…

@Chievo Why Serbian is better than English B) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeuHKa6sRZs And one old, very old, and a lot better than IDJ videos :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0JNyfoWMHE

(Quote) For everything else, there's the Mastercar... NSA. :)

MXroute for domain emails, connected to Gmail client.

(Quote) I understand your point - but. :) Not arguing - just trying to explain my point of view - if it's of any practical use for your test. Tests I had in mind measure sort of a non-critical load (for a somewhat decent hosting with caching set …

I still don't see how a comparative performance test can harm anything. It would only give more info, that could be useful in judging performance reducing effect of overselling more objectively. Without it, it's like avoiding to use a thermometer i…
-
(Quote) Would it make sense to run a speed/stress test - was that intended? For comparison of how performance changes depending on whether a server is oversold, or not.
-
My 2c - not (claiming to be) an expert - have that in mind, but if it's of any use: Overselling is a rather reasonable way to sell resources. Because many websites (not sure about other on-line applications) are idle at times, more or less. As long…
-
Overselling is not the same as overloading. It would be interesting to have 4 test servers. One not oversold. Second "conservatively" oversold. Third "normally" oversold. Fourth "optimistically" oversold.

"Along with the standard computer warranty agreement which said that if the machine 1) didn't work, 2) didn't do what the expensive advertisements said, 3) electrocuted the immediate neighborhood, 4) and in fact failed entirely to be inside the…

(Quote) That's why I asked.

Anybody know if that license can be transferred from one computer to another? And is there a limit to the number of transfers?

(Quote) I prefer doing the image optimization manually. Why? * It doesn't require one more WordPress plugin. The fewer plugins, the better, generally speaking - so I use only those that are really needed, that really help. Either by saving hours of…
