It must be true, I read it on… Some Guy's Blog

Hey jim I couldn’t locate your email address, but i stubbled across your site and thought i might drop you a line to say hello cause i hadn’t talked to you in forever, and I was thinking about you the other day. Well if you like email me back lildubie@msn.com. I hope everything is going well for you!

BORRRRing.
why do i even bother?
(that’s just because i like deerhoof and my photo teacher gave it to me and i’m totally crushing)
Sounds cool.
If you need any advice when it comes to the whole VPS deal, etc, let me know. I use one for my web projects, etc. My blog, Reeder, some friends, and a few other projects are hosted on a VPS that I lease.
That’s not to imply I’d know more about the technical side then you, but I might be able to tell you some companies that are pretty good and some to stay away from.
You’re in luck, because I’ll be continuing the series, certainly. I have discovered that leaving notes for myself is extremely effective in the long run.
For me, it’s sort of an experiment along the lines of preparing myself to save some $$$ when it comes time to get a VPS for myself or something similar. That time will be soon at hand, and it’s best I’m prepared for it.
Of course, that doesn’t include installing an X server and KDE, _typically_, but since I’m experimenting already…
I’d be interested in knowing how things go for you as time passes. I’m probably about to retire my current desktop and purchase a new one. I usually end up using the older desktop to install various OS’s/etc on to play around with. I’m not a huge *nix fan when it comes to desktop computing, but that’s probably because I haven’t taken the time to really learn the in’s and out’s.
For me, that prize goes to RedHat/Fedora/CentOS with SELinux enabled. Would SELinux win the prize for most often disabled security program?
Remember I’ve been installing programs constantly, so I haven’t had to use the actual programs themselves much. We may see more security frustrations soon.
Enjoying FreeBSD? I’ve only really played with it once as a desktop computer and I actually found it to be almost so secure that it was cumbersome. Of course, it was only the second *nix I had installed, so I knew next to nothing about what I was doing (so it was probably user error more then anything)
