Every checklist you've ever seen for securing your VPS includes "update your system regularly". But is that one of those "best practices" that is more theoretical than a real-world necessity? To be honest, it's easy to not get around to running "apt update && apt upgrade". In my experience, at least with Debian, updates rarely break things but it's always a small risk. Nevertheless, it requires remembering to do it, spending the commands run, maybe rebooting, etc. Unfortunately, history has shown time and time again that skipping OS updates can leave even the best admins wide open to disaster.

Last week I was preparing for a long plane ride. I grabbed my preferred travel video player - an Amazon Kindle Fire, which has a handy microSD port - and dug out a fingernail-sized piece of storage media to insert.

Hosted MySQL offerings have always been on the pricey side, relative to running MySQL yourself. Typically you pay some combination of storage, bandwidth, and metered activity (more queries = higher bill). Adding all this up usually puts it outside what a LowEnder is willing to pay, as these services are aimed more at corporate types. But here comes NameCrane to make hosted MySQL cheap for the masses!
