pxnguinPr3 reacted to jaslion in How do you guys make your backups?
I have a random pc pull incremental backups off of my computer. I use goodsync for it as I just have a license for that. Then that gets backed up to the cloud too. Locally it mirrors to a second 6tb drive (main is 4) but not in raid 1 just regular old copying over via goodsync too but with file history on.
Other than that nothing really.
As for software you could use the free version of veeam backup good reliable software. Or ya know just the built in windows one.

pxnguinPr3 reacted to BTGbullseye in New GPU
I'd say to look into getting an RX 580 or RX 590. If those aren't available, the 5500 XT with 8GB of VRAM is within your price range, as is the 1660 Super.

pxnguinPr3 reacted to Constantin in Upgrading my GFX Card
Do not rely on those bottleneck calculators, this terminology is way to overestimated.....
Bottleneck is a RTX 2080Ti with an i3 ........

pxnguinPr3 reacted to Fasauceome in Upgrading my GFX Card
You mean that your graphics card is the bottleneck
Don't bother with this site, wholly unreliable.
Regardless, new graphics cards from AMD are on their way, so get yourself 8GB more ram for dual channel and wait for their offerings.

pxnguinPr3 reacted to vorticalbox in Pinging a website
As said just throw a file in the root and use requests library to hit the file and see if it's there.
Also just because the site is live doesn't mean it's functioning

pxnguinPr3 reacted to SupaKomputa in Website ip protection
cloudflare is free until you need the enterprise functionality.
it will only protects you from http/s attack like ddos.
you have to use the provided cloudflare name servers and then redirrect A record to your server IP.
this won't hide your IP as it will eventually end up in the tracert.
the safest way to avoid your home being traced, is to rent a server / cloud.

pxnguinPr3 reacted to jj9987 in Website ip protection
Did you purchase a domain or are you using a provided one? If it is the latter (which seems to be what no-ip does), you can't use CloudFlare. If you have purchased one, you can use CloudFlare to do the traffic proxying between visitors and your server. CloudFlare has an API to use for updating the IP in DNS, but there probably are some tools that can do it as well.
Do take note, that CloudFlare can only proxy HTTP(S) traffic, not any other kind of TCP/UDP or whatever traffic.
Why are you worried about leaking/protecting your IP address? I'd focus on properly securing the systems instead.

pxnguinPr3 reacted to jj9987 in Pinging a website
You don't ping a website. You ping a server. ICMP packets are sent to a network device, not to an application (web server).
You can send an HTTP request to the website and check if that gives what it has to (check the status code, check the body).
For that I recommend Python requests module.

Cheaper motherboard, scrap the cooler (the stock one is good), and try to get dual channel 3000mhz memory if you can.

They are called Nested Virtual Machines, and, if the VMM is properly configured, are almost as efficient as running a single VM.
Ostensibly, this is what Docker is doing with their kernel emulation in containers. They have to be very efficient at nested VMs otherwise the penalty hit (and cost of deploying to AWS) would be too high and no one would use their product.

pxnguinPr3 reacted to Mitko_DSV in My Inception Challenge to the LTT Community
A few years ago (you can see the date in the picture) I tried this. I was running a VM in a VM on my PC (2 in total). My PC had an Intel Celeron G530 2.4GHz and 8GB RAM. Host OS and first VM's OS is Windows 7 and the second VM is XP. Using VirtualBox on both.
Even back then I could technically run another VM in the XP VM, but that wasn't what I was trying to do. Now if I tried it, I may be able to run even more VMs, well untill I full up all of my 8GB RAM, but I don't have the time to do it today. If I remmeber and have time, I will do it tommorow.

Quick question; One, do you suffer from chrome tabs syndrome [so many tabs opened it starts crashing and being slow]
Two; What graphics card do you have, as specific as possible please.
Once you've awnsered those i should be able to help.
