   It's 2018 though, that's unnecessary. Amazon should of had this standard years ago. Glad it's here!

   I wish more VPS providers offered OpenBSD and FreeBSD. I remember using FreeBSD a lot when I was 12-17 just messing around and setting up servers, etc but eventually moved to Debian because VPS' at the time didn't really offer the

   The user/username is really "admin", or do you mean they create a default account that's an administrator? (never used the self-hosted version.)

   I'm kind of the same way. I went from a Note 4 to a Note 5, and ended up dropping my Note 5 causing the screen/LCD to break and not turn on. It looks like it costs about $300-400 to replace everything after asking a couple of loca

   This is so sad, especially the part in the beginning about hiring a nanny to watch their kids as they grow up. You can't get those memories and time back. But hey, you have a WiFi coffee maker and Roomba.

    This happened to my early 2011 15" MacBook Pro sometime mid-2013. Apple repaired it for a $300 flat-fee via their "Repair Depot" option and luckily I haven't had the issue happen again yet (but it did come back with some

    This is so common on the early 2011 MBP (I have one too, and experienced it - Apple replaced my logic board with their $300 flat-fee repair depot option) people have made a website for it: http://www.mbp2011.com/ http:&#x2

    This looks awesome! I was just thinking of something like this the other day. Can't wait to try it. Any chance of being able to import from Linode in addition to DO, EC2, Rackspace, etc?

    Wow, thanks for that link. I have an early 2011 MBP and last year the same thing as OP happened. Ended up bringing it to Apple and did their repair depot option for $300. At least they extend the warranty for 90 days. Not looking forward to

    You can. I had to do this because my GitHub username (like my HN one) is just my name ("rob") and I was getting notifications from people using @rob in their comments/replies instead of the person's actual GitHub usernam

    Can this company even be trusted now? Are they going to shut down Beanstalk and Postmask when they get bored of those services, even if they are profitable? This is absurd.

    I went ahead and purchased the Pro version this morning. Really nice and works great. I didn't like how you couldn't indent tasks on the iPhone web version, but GeeTasks does it. :)

    Thanks for the suggestions everybody. For now, I decided to go with Google Tasks. It's very barebones and simple, but it's just what I was looking for and they even have an iPhone-optimized version (I will also look into GeeTasks).

    Thanks! TeuxDeux is very, very close to what I'm looking for — I'll give it a try for a couple of days. Too bad they don't have an iPhone version ready (even just an iPhone-optimized site).
