This is going to be a very weird thread where you are going to confess about some of your sins. No. I am not here to absolve you. I am just the first to accept mine.

First thing first. If you have enough money to buy something, you should buy it. Even if it means penny pinching for months. That kind of hardship often builds character and puts your love of something on deeper foundations. 

now on to my sin...

i will keep pirating books. i can't not have the books i can't afford just because i can't pay for them and can't accommodate enough work to pay for them. Knowledge should be free.

i dunno how to compensate the writers and publishers though. I still think about it. haven't found any convincing solutions yet. but that is not going to stop me.

i think this is the only crime I'm willing to commit even if they set capital punishment for it. I will not steal your books. i will make copies of them and also all my books are always available for any of you to copy.

Just hoping i never have to live off the earnings from some books.. lol

i understand the other side and i have no perfect solution yet. but i can't let that stop me from doing this. sorry people...

this is irrational. i know. sorry.

Now it's your turn.

Hi experts,
                As the tittles says i want to know which GPU is better, a 2GB of GDDR3 or 1 GB GDDR5. I want to purchase a GPU for my younger brother. He play games. I already have a 1GB GDDR3 AMD graphic card. Which is causing rendering problem in PUBG Mobile. an old friend told me to buy GDDR5 1GB instead of 2GB GDDR3. I am confused now.  Confused   Prices are almost same. Which is best and why?

BEFORE PROCEEDING!
DON'T TRY THIS ON YOUR FREE VPSES CAUSE THEN IT CAN LEAD TO ITS SUSPENSION!
SOLELY FOR EDUCATION PURPOSE ONLY!

First of all I have previously posted a tutorial on medium about this which can be found here: [url=https://medium.com/@theamresh.sinha/easily-install-rtorrent-rutorrent-on-ubuntu-d09660a02916?source=friends_link&sk=2c487c2f8eb2514b75865cb2b84cb7d2]Easy installation of rTorrent+ruTorrent on ubuntu[/url]
Also, I am going to avoid those long descriptions which I have posted on my medium post to keep it simple and short..... 

Getting Started
Plus: As I stated in my medium post..... Many users face problems due to ssh port change during installation..... idk If this is a problem at all as those commands once started runs on the server and is unaffected by your local machine.... ryt? 
But Still I have seen many peoples issue on github related to this script.
Ohh wait I forgot to tell you about that script which I am gonna use here.
Its rtinst!
Github repo: rtinst

Requirements
Firstly, you need a Ubuntu Machine running locally or on a remote server.... versions supported(16 to 19) idk about 20.... If anyone tries on 20 then comment below Smile
Second, As usual Login to your server through any ssh client or your native machines terminal....
THIRD(IMORTANT), Before getting started plz make sure that torrenting doesn't violates your hosts T&C..... otherwside there can be a chance to loose your vps

Installation
Step-1: 
Switch to sudo: 
Code:
$ sudo -i

Step-2:
Update your server packages so that no dependency error occurs during installation
Code:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt upgrade

Step-3:
Now Comes the main part i.e., Fetching the script and then installing it
Code:
$ sudo bash -c “$(wget — no-check-certificate -qO — https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arakasi72/rtinst/master/rtsetup)"

Then:
Code:
$ sudo rtinst -l -w YOUR_RUTORRENT_PASSWORD -d -t

Remember to replace YOUR_RUTORRENT_PASSWORD with your password which you want to be your rutorrent GUI web Password

Note that I have added that -t at the end which tells the script that don't change default ssh port 22.... (I added that as I stated the reason above in Getting Started Section)

All the other commands information can be found on that github repo

Also this installation will install 
vsftpd, libTorrent/rTorrent/xmlrpc-c, ruTorrent, NGINX, autodl-irssi, Webmin (Optional but recommended!)



Quote:As soon as you start running the script by above command it will ask you several things which you should answer according to your server and your own needs!
At the End rtinst will give you the information of the installation like ftp port (Due to security reasons it assigns a random port), the address of rutorrent WebGUI, the HTTPS download location, etc! So Note it down on a secure place Wink

Step-4:
Installing Webmin (Just Told ya that its optional but I recommend it as it simplifies file management and server management)
Code:
$ sudo rtwebmin

Step-5:
Reboot The System
Code:
$ sudo reboot

That's It!

If you want to upgrade rtorrent and rutorrent to its newest packages then:

rtorrent:
Code:
$ sudo rtupdate

rutorrent:
Code:
$ sudo rutupgrade


Hope So This tutorial will help all those geeks out there Wink
Feel free to comment Smile
Suggestions are always welcomed Wink

hi,

I wanted to do an offline version of a very good mathematics help site (if you are interested.cut the knot org). so i used httrack and got it on my vps. It was almost 12gb.

Next, being the weird person that i am, i wanted to run lrztar -z on it to see how far i could compress it.

For the lrzip-lrztar novice (i am one too, apparently), lrztar archives the directory and then runs normal compression algorithm on that file with slight modification. it even finds repeated data chunks that are really far far away from one another. so kind of extended range on finding algorithm. the bigger the file, the better the output. with -z switch it is the max compression using zpaq at the cost of huge ram and time usage.

Now the problem is it gets very high CPU usage which i was unable to keep in control using cpulimit. So i stopped after trying for 2 minutes. (didn't try tinkering with cgroups though).

Here is my question,

do you guys have any idea how i could run that on my vps safely ?

Hello,
I'm a freevps.us member a while back,
but due to it's closure, I joined this forum
for the same reason, to get a free vps for hosting my stuffs.

But because english is not my native language,
and i have no confidence communicating in english at that time,
I failed to join nor create quality discussions and 
stays lurking for some time before I decided to take a break.

Due to this pandemic,
I have more time idling online and 
I want it to be productive by learning stuff.

Hope i'm still welcome,
and I can contribute to this community for real this time.

More power and God bless everyone.

I'm sure this will be sad news for most of us who have benefited from Hidden's expert assistance. Hidden has decided to step down as Tech Consultant of Post4VPS. Which means he no longer will be assisting with the VPS Private Support discussions:

Hidden Refuge Wrote:The reason why I'm stepping down is lack of time but also mostly lack of interest in the whole VPS thing. I don't have a VPS (yes, I just cancelled my NanoKVM VPS before sending you this message). I have nothing to host or other reasons to use a VPS. Basically a local VM serves me well enough, given I have 32 GB of RAM and a 6 core / 12 thread AMD Ryzen 5 3rd Gen CPU in addition to pure SSD storage.

Our heartfelt thanks to Hidden for his invaluable assistance from the beginning of his association with Post4VPS. He without any doubt has brought quality and credit to our Forum and continues to do so with his presence at Post4VPS. Am happy to learn from Hidden that we will still be seeing him posting at Post4VPS. He is only resigning as Tech Consultant. If and when he has time, he will still be checking in at Post4VPS as he always does.

Hello everyone,

according to the website. playstation 5 are going to be released with a lot of new games that most of them supports only playstation 5, and of course a better hardware. how much better? well... here's a chart to show you exactly how better the playstation 5:
[Image: Capture.png]

the new playstation 5 also has options such as ray tracing, supports 4k graphics and fps 120 with support to 120HZ 4K screens.
so in my opinion the new playstation 5 is going to be a huge success i cant wait to hear more and see some more videos about this console and i would like to hear your opinions guys on what are you thinking about the new console and how much do you rate this new console.

This discussion follows on from @xdude's thread about VestaCP whether it's a good Web Panel to use.

I've just learned tonight from @Sohamb03 that VestaCP is no longer actively supported by the developers.  I then went to the VestaCP Discussion Forum to check this out and looks like the last time there have been any updates to VestaCP has been as far back as September 2019.  That means that the original VestaCP project has become a security risk.

What I also learned from sohamb is that there is a Belgian fork that works with CentOS 7:
https://github.com/madeITBelgium/vesta

BUT - then when I did my research at the VestaCP Forum, I discovered this detailed discussion there and another fork that is actively developed for Debian 10:
https://github.com/myvesta/vesta#myvesta-control-panel

The above VestaCP Debian Fork now has my attention - particularly because of what the author of the fork says his reason is for using Debian 10:

Quote:Debian has LTS releases every two years - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian_ve ... ease_table - with LTS support for 5 years.
Debian10 was released in summer 2019.
So, if you installed Debian10 last year - you don't need to do dist-upgrade until 2024-2025... it will be covered with security fixes.
That's why I choosed Debian.
You are in total peace for 5 years per installed server.
He was comparing this with Ubuntu that is always a headache when it has to go through an upgrade.  Obviously the more up to date the configuration that is used with VestaCP the less risky it will be to use.

I'll probably try Sohamb's CentOS fork first.  As I'm a CentOS user.  But then again, maybe this is an opportunity to change to Debian.  Also, the guy responsible for developing the Debian Fork has just started a discussion forum, so may be worthwhile trying it out.  There may be some active support available.

In the discussion at VestaCP about whether the VestaCP Project is dead, one of the Administrators recommended the following alternative for VestaCP that may also be worthwhile pursuing - looks like it's a Project that is being developed by some of the original VestaCP staff - it has a dark theme and looks very much like VestaCP otherwise:

https://www.hestiacp.com/

I also checked up on the regular Admin at VestaCP that used to take the lead.  Skurudo and Imperio.  Skurudo seems to have disappeared towards end of 2019.  Imperio's last English posts were participation in the thread below in which hestiacp is mentioned:
https://forum.vestacp.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=19531

So bottom line, VestaCP has always been risky, but probably now more than ever before.  It hasn't been updated since September 2019.  However, Imperio - a lead Admin of the original VestaCP (maybe the owner?) says it's still a going concern - or maybe he is just dreaming about making changes that he doesn't have time to make nor staff left to complete:
Imperio of VestaCP Wrote:the project is not abondoned, but team is very busy in last time. Now we are rewriting the front-end interface of the panel. Front-end of FM already done. Also we are working under support of CentOS 8 & Debian 10

Imperio is still supporting the Forum but all of his posts since January have been written in Russian.  His last support related post was made a week ago.  So he is still around but VestaCP is lacking security updates.  Possibly the author of the security updates is no longer active at VestaCP any longer and Imperio has to find a new team to start from scratch again.

The PS4 jailbreak scene is getting active and slowly gaining traction again!

A few days ago the legend of the PS4 jailbreak scene developers the fl0w has released a kernel exploit that is present in PlayStation 4 firmware up to version 7.02. Here is the tweet that kicked it all up again. This new kernel exploit is the first news in the PS4 jailbreak scene since around two years. The last big thing was the kernel exploit for firmware 5.05/5.07 (which til today is still the most stable and widely spread exploit in the PS4 jailbreak scene). After the firmware 5.05/5.07 the scene was kind of silent and depressed. Many rumors came up regarding that developers have already exploits for higher firmware versions but won't release them for reason X. And a lot of negative vibes have been coming up against the developers. The scene was pronounced "dead" by its own members and has turned into a toxic community.

The new kernel exploit that works til firmware version 7.02 is based on a security hole inside the IPv6 stack of the BSD kernel used in the PlayStation 4 OS (it is based on FreeBSD after all). Sadly the kernel exploit alone cannot be used to jailbreak a PlayStation 4 console! You need a entry point at userland (the normal user level that you have access too when using the PS4). A entry point in a lot of cases so far has been the PS4 web browser. The web browser is based on Webkit and the Webkit browser engine also has holes in it. The latest webkit exploit that is available is on PS4 firmware 6.72. What does that mean? Well, it means that while the kernel exploit is good til version 7.02 it is not going to be available for that firmware version until a entry point in that firmware has been found.

And that also means that the next fully exploited firmware version will be 6.72. FW 6.72 has a webkit exploit and can use the 7.02 kernel exploit to achieve a full jailbreak. Currently a full exploit chain is in development. A full exploit chain is needed for a user to be able to run the webkit exploit that injects a payload into the kernel that executes the kernel exploit to jailbreak the console. This is not as easy as it sounds. This whole process is not really stable at the beginning. Developers are looking for ways to make the whole process more stable and easy to handle. For the FW 5.05/5.07 exploit the process needed a long time to get as stable as it is. Currently HEN 2.1.1 (the exploit chain Homebrew Enabler) is the most stable way of jailbreaking a PS4 with FW 5.05/5.07. It took a lot of time to get as perfected as it is now. Old versions have many kernel panics when being run (this is when it is unstable and will cause a kernel panic that leads to the PS4 crashing).

I own a original PS4 with FW 5.05 and HEN 2.1.1 cached offline. It is a great fun console made possible by jailbreaking and homebrew. Hopefully a full exploit chain for FW 6.72 will come soon Smile .
