- Comment on Risks of self-hosting a public-facing forum? 1 day ago:
I’ve had good luck with these guys: cloudfanatic.net/pricing/
I think they would fall in the less resources category. But they offer unlimited data transfer, and you can use any distro you want. I run slackware btw.

- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 1 month ago:

But for everything else, yarrrrr.
- Comment on As Sony exits, Verbatim doubles down on optical media — stable supply of discs is a "top priority" despite shrinking market 1 month ago:
Disc failure is the verbatim I remember, but I’m glad they’re still around. My 2008 car has a 6 disc CD changer, and I have a few retro PCs which rely on CDs too. Yes, I know I can get adapters for CF cards and the like, but doing things the old way is the whole point.

I am hooked on the music.
