Don't worry, I host serious stuff on a single machine, and am quite happy with it ;) What set me off a bit was the shared hosting. You don't want noisy neighbors, usually. That's worth a few bucks.

How would you even know if somebody you like had engaged in transactional sex before?

And it's not just that it's no longer acceptable (as a normative declaration), people just stopped caring. At least in a bubble that's large enough so you can lead a comfortable life without any serious ramifications.

In German, "dämpfen" means all of the above, and also "cooking in hot steam" :)

Dead stuff is stuff without structure. I tend to think about my interactions with the universe as extending the structure that is me to dead stuff. Stuff is lifted to structuredness, and becomes part of us as a whole. I don't feel that

That has nothing to do with the European Parliament. Or not in the general case. If you're interested, dig yourself into the changelog of tzdata. Timezones are inherently political.

It's combining the benefits from async models (state machines separated from os threads, thus more optimal for I/O bound workload), with the benefits from proper threading models (namely the simpler human interface). Memory utiliz

I've run multiple info-exfiltrating attacks based on timestamps and sequential identifiers against various actors. There you have your threat model. While I don't have any clue about your "most", I suggest you don't
