my Dad's House. (Edit - My House as of Oct. 15th)
Where is your dad moving to?
somewhere is a couple acre's of Land and away from the city. He hasn't found a place yet.
So he's now living with you...
No, I haven't closed on the house yet. I close on the 15th then will rent to him until he finds a house.
LOL - funny how the tables turn....
So Nancy will be living alone after that?
Yes, But I'll be close enough to Check in on her and take care of stuff around the house for her like normal .
Maybe now she's actually get to clean the house out... so much old junk she just needs to get a dumpster and be rid of... or have a garage sale - all those people who passed and left their stuff to her...
we have a dumpster coming tomorrow, lol
Name it 2020, toss in some gasoline and throw the match.
well, yeah, LOL what else am I supposed to do?

Just got my once every 6 month CloudAtCost email. Somehow it always bypasses my spam filtering
I know that experience.
They were told specifically to cancel my account and delete it (I wasn't subscribed to any of their spam lists at the time either).All was good for several months, and then HELLO! the spam started arriving.
Unsubscribing does nothing, you have to login/change your preferences and completely change eveything in the account.
Use a random password generator for the email address...
Are they any good, their prices look cheap, what's the catch, apart from only having a CA based datacentre (long way from Oz).

Run. Run far, far, far, away. Then, when you think you've run far enough, run the same distance two or three more times.

A lot of us had problems with them trying to change the terms on us after we'd signed up for their "For Life" plan... then they try to sneak in and start billing you after the fact, and the service itself was... meh. I didn't have a heavy load on it, so I don't really know about performance.

Entire thing is a scam in every sense. For a time, it was the top topic on the community. They were really active here. It's not a production system, their prices are fake, the performance is unusable, it's like Liquid Nitrogen Overclocking.... entire thing was a scam top to bottom. Parent company tried to disavow them as it was that bad that it destroyed their reputation, too.

I wouldn't call it a "data center", pretty sure it's like whitebox desktops in a garage. It's definitely nothing running on servers.

so i'm fiddling around with a ubuntu build on vultr, i'm no linux person.
I run up a simple machine, reset root password. logout & log back in using the new password, so i've confirmed the password is ok.
install lubuntu desktop coz I want a gui.
reboot, but I can longer log in, says password is incorrect. Tried this at least 4 times, meaning i've nuked the vm and started from scratch 4 times.
wednesday thursday friday (wtf).
what am i missing???

I bet you will find that the cli password still works. Its likely a GUI issue.

At one of our sites re-cabling the Unifi AP's, Also upgrading them to AC-LR's
why recabling?
Because we have no idea who cabled some of the cat5 stuff and the Access Points keep going offline.
So thought Re-cable new access points, then all should be good. -
