    First you shouldn't be creating more than 1 VS per config, I'll explain the reason why below. Make sure every virtual server has its own conf file and only create a conf file for each HTTP VS on port 80. Enable each site and check they're accessible.
     
    Next install Certbot & Certbot-apache then run certbot --apace2 and it will scan your sites-enabled folder and allow you to create and pull a certificate for each config it detects, it will automatically create a new set of configs (one for each virtual server) for HTTPS on port 443, enable them all and ask you if you want your existing HTTP configs to be edited to auto forward to HTTPS instead.
     
    The only thing you should need to do manually is run sudo systemctl restart apache2 when it finishes.

    Don't ever edit the 000-default file, this file is used by Apache when hostname resolution fails and by editing it you'll make your webserver forward all failed requests to this virtual server by default. I tend to stick my 404 error page in there.
     
    Create a new conf file for each vhost or subdomain in /etc/sites-available, its best practice to number them in order of importance so your top level domain should be 001 and subs should be 002, 003 etc.
     
    Afterwards run sudo a2ensite sitename to enable to the site, for example if the config is called 001-hompage.conf then you'd run e2ensite 001-homepage. This creates a symlink for you so any further changes you make are reflected automatically. You can do a2dissite sitename to disable a site as well.
     
    Finally run sudo systemctl reload apache2.

    Wow! Thanks for the informative reply.
    What drew me into the Launch was the QMK and hot swappable switches. I could go either way with the split space bar. Thought it was a neat little quirk but its not a make or break "feature" for me.
    After looking at the links you gave I think I'm going to go for the GMMK Pro with Kailh purples.

    Hey there.
    Hm.
    What about the System 76 Launch interests you?
     
    If it's switch customizability or QMK-compatibility you're after, there are plenty of cheaper hot-swappable QMK boards, or hot-swappable QMK boards with better features and better build quality than the Launch.
    GMMK Pro ($170 from Glorious): 75% Layout. Hot-Swappable. Rotary Knob. Gasket-Mounted. QMK-Compatible. IDOBAO ID80 ($140 - $160 from IDOBAO): 75% Layout. Hot-Swappable. Integrated Plate. QMK-Compatible. Keychron Q1 ($150 - $180 from Keychron): 75% Layout. Hot-Swappable. Gasket-Mounted. QMK-Compatible. Keychron K2 ($80 from Keychron): 75% Layout. Hot-Swappable. Wireless Connectivity.  
    If it's the split spacebar that's caught your eye, again, the market has other options:
    KBD75 ($200 from KBDfans): 75% Layout. Supports Split Spacebar. QMK-Compatible. Split ($82 from YMDK): 75% Layout. Supports Split Spacebar. Sinc ($60 from Keebio): 75% Layout. Supports Split Spacebar. Rotary Encoder.  
    One of the Launch's quirks is its 1.5U modifier keycaps:
     
    As a result of the 1.5U keycap design choice, there's a noticeable gap beside the left-side modifier keys. Up to personal preferences whether it irks you or not, but it's unsightly IMO:
     

     
    The other unique thing about the Launch would be its high-speed USB hub, advertised for up to 10 Gbps. AFAIK, while keebs with USB hubs / USB passthrough aren't a novelty (Logitech G413, CORSAIR K70, Steelseries Apex Pro, other gaming keyboards) no other custom keeb on the market has a 10 Gbps capability.
     
    Though, in what use case a 10 Gbps USB hub attached to a keyboard would be an absolute necessity, I'm not entirely sure.

    I'm going to throw Lubuntu and Elementary (you can enter "$0") since they're both considered lightweight. Though Lubuntu is more fleshed out than Elementary.
     
    I would suggest CrunchBang since it has more of that Hollywood Hacker feel without being overly user-unfriendly, but the dev stopped working on it.

    BaronVonJace reacted to corrado33 in Very loud fans   
    Lots of things you can do here.
     
    First off, you don't need 5 fans running at idle. Let the computer turn off the excess fans. I leave one intake fan on, my CPU fan on, and turn the rest of them off at idle. That way I can maintain a positive pressure inside the case and not worry about dust. Once anything gets warm (aka I'm gaming) all the fans kick on. This is the most important thing.
     
    The option is right to the right of where your pictures above end. It's a little checkbox. I think it's called "Auto Stop"
     
    Second, buy higher quality fans. Low quality fans suck.
     
    Thirdly, buy PWM fans. They can reach much slower speeds due to how they are controlled. 
     
    Fourthly, figure out which fan(s) are the loudest. Turn all of them off but one, then ramp it all the way up and down. For me it was the rear top exhaust fan which was the loudest, so I make that one turn on LAST. The rest of the time it's powered down.

    BaronVonJace reacted to LogicalDrm in Fan Positioning   
    You can put PCIe x1 cards into any PCIe slot. Doesn't need to be x1 slot. As for fan placement, front intake and top/rear exhaust is best. No need to do anything for pre-installed fans. Just swap front fans as intake.
     
    Also, CPU package is average over all cores. Look at temps for your 1st core or highest temp over all of them.
     
     
    Sidepanel fans depend on where its located and what CPU/GPU cooler type is used. If slot is over CPU and CPU uses down-draft cooler (like stock ones), fan is best as intake. If its anything else, exhaust or rather no fan. For slots over GPU, with blower cards intake is better. With all the rest, exhaust.

    BaronVonJace reacted to Mira Yurizaki in Question about power phases   
    Power phases affect the power delivery to the GPU and memory controller. The more power phases you have, the more power the house keeping circuitry in the graphics card can deliver cleanly.
     
    I'm totally stealing this explanation but you can think of power phases like cylinders for a car. A 4 phase power system is like an 4-cylinder car and an 8-phase power system is like an 8-cylinder car. All other specs being equal, the 8-cylinder car can deliver more power than the 4-cylinder one.
     
    The +1, +2 at the end means how many other places other than the GPU does the power go to.

    BaronVonJace reacted to LeapFrogMasterRace in Question about power phases   
    More power phases are better because they balance the load more reducing the heat per choke (resulting in better efficiency and a theoretically longer lifespan). More power phases usually provide cleaner current going into things like the CPU, however if the manufacturer uses doublers it doesn't really help stepping down the voltage. For AMD FX processors above the FX 6300 you definitely want a beefy phase design but for most Intel processors you are fine as long as you don't get a cheap mobo and plan on doing high overclocks.
