Hey fellow #webhosting nerds, do you have a recommendation for cheap, secure & reliable reseller accounts?

Currently using RackNerd, but there's an issue where a nefarious account on the same machine can be accessed via any domain on the machine, and this keeps getting my legit sites flagged for social engineering content.

e.g. www.mydomian.com/~badaccount shows the content from badaccount.
They've been able to fix it after a flurry of tickets, but it keeps happening again.

Do you have a Trader Joe's? They do a sipping chocolate that's pretty good - at least they DID do it, but it's TJs so they probably don't do it anymore.

Update to my Truchet mode on my RGB matrix art panel.

I pick a random tile every half second and rotate it in a random direction 90 degrees.

I like how this feels like something complex and intentional is going on behind the scenes.

Added some simple Truchet tiles (Smith variant) to my matrix display.

Not sure if I should make this scroll or not. I kinda like it as it is.

I'm so fucking sick of websites requiring extra validation these days - whenever my ISP changes my external IP, I have to log back into everything again, but username and password isn't enough - it's always suspicious, so I have to wait for an email or get a text message or some other 2fa.

I'm close to packing it all in and becoming a hermit.

I'd interested to know if stuff shows up for you - I only get two pictures both containing the word "Nottingham". But "Derby" shows me all the pics I've taken in Derby. Most other places I tried work too. Nottingham just seems broken, although I think the pics are still there, just the search function is borked.

Has anyone noticed that Google photos has broken their search with AI slop?

I can no-longer find any of the photos I took in Nottingham because it doesn't recognize it as a place name anymore. The one I took in Derby still come up when I search, but it's Derby.

Does anyone from the UK remember an old coin op machine that was primarily mechanical where you dropped in a 2p (or maybe 5p) into an upright circular track that tilted as you turned a steering wheel?

The idea was to get the coin to the bottom without it flying off the sides and the theme was something like "driving test"

It was around in the 70s, but possibly older than that. Trying to find the name of it and a picture of possible.

Cheers!
