Life lessons are a beautiful gift in the long run, but they don't always come wrapped in a shiny red bow.

Sometimes tragedy brings us wisdom, whereas other times joy does. No matter the season or difficult situation, life lessons are worth cherishing..

* Don't try any suicide attempts in tough times. Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny.

* If your gut is screaming at you that something is wrong, Just listen to it.

* Don’t wait until the right time. For most things there is no right time.

* Your fear of failure is worse than the failure itself. Take the chance. Now.

There is something to be learned from everyone. Oh u can share your life lessons to Learn from..

What do you use, dear @Rem ?

I actually had
Paid Google One (1TB)+
Microsoft 365 Family+
& Proton Unlimited

However, Google did piss me off about 2 years or so ago
so i unsubbed and told them to go fuck themselves.
stopped using my google personal email more or less.

it not about privacy or google stealing data or anything
it's just how google does business with it's core customers. Not a big fan of it.

I'm in shock that my name wasn't mentioned here.
wtf everyone

Chances are, many of you have used different codes or plugins on your website to warn visitors when they're about to leave your site by clicking on an external link.

For example:


The URL structure of the website shown in the image above looks like this: website.com
/fcc-bin/bye?YOUR_WEBSITE_HERE

There are hundreds of similar scripts out there, and the interesting thing is that by simply swapping out the original link with your own, the page will still load - but now it includes your website as a do-follow backlink.

In fact, you’ll get two backlinks: one from the naked URL and another from the "Continue" button. It’s actually quite easy to discover sites like these using specific Google search footprints.

Cheers!

I've not mentioned that, would I ?

well, you said u had 2 legs, not 3
so either the last one doesn't work, or you dont have a 3rd leg.

OK, there is no more bookmark button in the new threads page.

roydan said:

Yeah I agree.
On another forum there's a bookmark button on the homepage. When I suggested they remove it, they asked-ignored-locked my suggestion so to this day, you can bookmark their homepage.

I think the worst part about that is that it's actually really easy to remove. You literally just have to add a few lines of code to the page node.

I think that it would be better to auto-lock them a few days after it is marked closed. Even though now it's manageable, in a few months we could have thousands of threads being bumped every day and we're very likely to lost track for what needs and doesn't need to be answered.

Okay, I for sure agree with this, but this is another one of those things where I'm trying to figure out how to balance being mostly hands-off and not dictating how someone tries to sell with rules and guidelines.

One thing I am fine with doing is putting restrictions on using brand names in the titles and sales copies. I implemented this after a user created some accounts with brand names. I let him keep the names of the accounts he made as he was just having fun roleplaying, but I did put restrictions in to prevent people from signing up as "Facebook Account Seller" or something.

To prevent our marketplace from becoming... that, I can add the same thing in and cite that there are issues with potential secondary liability with Safe Harbour provisions. Something I'm doing with the rules here is putting why they're there.

Here's what I added to The Trading Post rules:

Zwielicht said:

You may not use brand names, celebrity names, or other copyrighted or trademarked material in your thread titles or sales copy in a promotional or misleading way.

• Permitted exceptions include neutral, factual use such as “Instagram accounts for sale.”
• This rule exists to reduce the risk of secondary liability under Safe Harbour provisions.

If you can think of anything else to prohibit, I'm all ears.

Rem said:

Nah, I don't need a VPS.
Was more towards having a thread, that people can give their own feedback and recommendations on why they are with that company.

While yes, nothing is really a 1 size fits all, but sizes are universal.
A small blog is still a small blog really and a company for example AWS is able to scale between small to big plans right.

To me, raw feedback without the intent of throat-shoved selling is the purest form of either appreciation or dissatisfaction (of the service).

Okay, well then here are some of my suggestions:

1) Hetzner

• Affordable and powerful hardware.
• Good privacy standards as its based in the EU.

2) Vultr

• Has high performance plans (NVMe SSD, dedicated CPUs).
• Has a fast deployment.
• Cloud Compute and Bare Metal Options.

3) OVH

• DDoS Protection.
• You have lots of control over your hardware and networking if you like that.

4) FlokiNET

• Bulletproof .
• Based in Iceland, Finland and Romania which all have strong privacy laws.

5) OrangeWebsite

• Accepts Bitcoin and is known for pro-free-speech values.
• Has a reputation for ignoring DMCA-style complaints.

6) Netcup

• Variety of options and generally one of the better known VPS solutions with lots of great feedback from customers.
• DDos Protection and high availability.

7) PRQ

• Known to host almost everything as long as its not completely nuts and borderline illegal
• Offers extreme anonymity

There are a lot more, but these are the ones I have experience with. Have fun.
