Tightly want to grabify it.

Awesome :smiley: PM sent!

Probably going to get a plan to use for a VPN, that is a nice price. Mostly light usage, but unmetered bandwidth means not having to think about it! edit: vps ID 397
-
Honestly, I want to. But every time I start ripping and organizing music, I realize how much work and effort it will be, and I just say fuck it, I'll keep using Spotify. For movies and tv shows, spread across 50 different streaming services, c…

(Quote) Ah, was gonna say I'd feel kinda bad if I was the single person prevented a perfect streak!

Am I that one inactive client? lol...been thinking of activating the sub again as it worked well!
-
(Quote) Same, but the banner on the top of the site still declares the 14.99 deal. Missed out on this one I guess.
-
(Quote) Thanks, that's good to know it's from my virtual CPU and not the whole. And I realized I worded that poorly, it was 30-35% most of the time that I was doing stuff on the VPS! That one usually sits idle, lol, but I will manually do …

With top does it show cpu % based on my own allocation, or in general? I tried on one of my VPS and it was floating around 30-35% most of the time. I've also seen the command htop, I presume that is similar?
-
So how would I measure or estimate my usage ?
-
As far as speeds go, from work I tested again (still from my phone using the Ivacy Android app), I got 118/20 Mbps down/up on my LTE connection (T-Mobile). I swapped over to my Private Internet Access VPN which I've had for a couple years (usua…

Got this one, went for the 10 device plan just cause. On my phone so far using LTE, getting around 50/30 Mbps Down/Up to a couple nearby cities (within 200 miles). The Android app is ok, I wish it would show where the Automatic connection had chose…

Obviously it'll differ from provider to provider, but in general, are these "lifetime deals" for a service that requires then to run servers viable? Like I'm sure some people just buy it and forget about it and rarely/never use i…

Still have Vanced installed on my phone, even changed phones since they discontinued it and was able to re-install just fine. It does at this point show some ads in the browsing sections/list of videos, which is a bit annoying, but not that big of a…

Wow, that's a great list! Thanks @Encoders, I have seen some of that stuff around but definitely not used all of it. And I appreciate the book recommendation @iaecm ...555 pages may be a bit much for my plate right now, but I think it would se…

(Quote) For sure, always a good thing to test! I...haven't quite gotten the whole backup thing sorted yet, and am confused by a few points in the repository logistics, but I will be testing the restoration process afterwards.
-
(Quote) Appreciate the tip! I do sometimes find myself uninstalling things later that I either rarely use or never actually ended up using. I'm hoping that one of the backup solutions I'm trying ends up working as they all seem to be well-…
-
(Quote) That's definitely how I've been doing it. Honestly my main issue is that I just can't decide what to try and install!
-
Those both look really neat! Do either of them have any sort of "app install" type feature?
-
Tried EasyPanel out on a VPS earlier for a way to test a GUI...pretty happy with it, seems more flexible than swizzin.
-
Sounds like it really should matter then who I pick to be my remote backup target...was planning on going with one of the VPS with RAID-6, because it conveniently has large amounts of storage as well, so that sounds like a good choice. Given the ex…

(Quote) Been reading about Seafile and other file-syncing apps a bunch this evening. The speed of Seafile seems pretty universally praised, but there are also two common concerns I see brought up. One is that it's a Chinese company, though if s…
-
I've been looking for a better filesyncing solution to run locally and also on a VPS somewhere, maybe Seafile could be that. I've seen so many recommendations for NextCloud so I installed it recently but it seems....bloated. Like, I just w…
-
Really interesting to see everyone's perspective on this -- and how much overlap there is. It really is a "the more you know, the less you ask others" situation like you find in many concentrated groups of people who have some experie…

Fair enough. I do try and solve most things myself, as well, though sometimes I don't know exactly what I need to figure out, when is usually when I reach out to support. Hopefully it's not been too irritating for my providers, lol. But ha…
