It's dependent on what you are hypothetically upgrading from. I'll be upgrading from a 2012 MacBook Pro w/ Retina, so I'm looking for: * Thunderbolt 3 (from 1) * USB 3.1 (from 3.0) * NVMe (from SATA) * LPDDR4 (from DDR3)

My monitors started going berserk around 3:36 PM CT. Here's an example of the problem (I am not hostmaster for The Onion, but they are a well-known Linode customer): $ whois theonion.com | grep -i 'name server' N

Wow, this might actually be good enough / full-featured enough to let me stop copying around my huge HAproxy configuration boilerplate and Ansible roles for every project I spin up. Very cool!

This recently changed. Google is no longer penalizing redirects, and is in fact rewarding http->https redirects. Hopefully other search engines will follow suit. https://moz.com/blog/301-redirection-rules-for-seo

It's kind of a virtuous cycle (or vicious cycle, if you prefer BSD): more people use Linux; more guides are written to help others, more software is readily available, and more testing is done by virtue of having a larger user base; so

Horde has a specific meaning in the context of armed forces, and it is accurate to describe Eurasian armies as "hordes", but the definition rarely (if ever) includes Muslims. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orda

I'm not saying this is the case at Uber, but it's quite common for MariaDB users to refer to it as MySQL, or to use the two names interchangeably. It's difficult to get out of the habit as all of the CLI tools are still mysql

I did see your other post, and upvoted it. This rule of thumb has served me well between different regex dialects and implementations, but it's not surprising that there are some specific cases that are "broken" for lack of a

CGI implementations will take the value of the Proxy header and clobber whatever might have originally been set in the environment at HTTP_PROXY.

Correct.

Thanks for the explanation. Out of sheer curiosity (and because I run BSD-based pfSense and FreeNAS at home), how do you handle floating IPs and that sort of thing on OpenBSD?

I was in this camp for a long time until I tried to get mod_deflate and mod_socache_memcache to play nice together and the wheels came off. Moved to Varnish (fronted by HAproxy) and could not be happier!

joe! My first Unix-y text editor, but it's been vi/vim for 12 or 13 years now. Anyway, distros stopped including joe out of the box in favor of first pico and then nano, which is why it's not more popular.

I guess the question is what do you do if you don't have one of those "existing storage providers" at your disposal. For example, I have a "traditional" collection of VPS instances hosting a variety of services. I w

This is a much better answer than, "If you're using fail2ban for that reason, you don't know what you're doing," as someone said to me recently, so thank you. :-) I'll explore replacing fail2ban with this mecha

Something like Ansible can help with this a ton. My playbooks are littered with tasks such as: - ufw: rule=allow direction=in port={{ redis_port }} src={{ hostvars[item]['ansible_ssh_host'] }} with_items: "{{ groups[&

Well, sure, but the usermod method I was remarking on isn't standard either, and it established a Linux context for this thread. I'm not sure there's a truly portable way to lock a password across SysV, Linux, and BSD systems

I too am curious to know what the consensus is. People seem to fall into one of two camps: 1. it's unnecessary if you disable password login or 2. it's an easy thing to add as yet another safety net on top of sane service configur
