Raindog308 is a longtime LowEndTalk community administrator, technical writer, and self-described techno polymath. With deep roots in the *nix world, he has a passion for systems both modern and vintage, ranging from Unix, Perl, Python, and Golang to shell scripting and mainframe-era operating systems like MVS. He’s equally comfortable with relational database systems, having spent years working with Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL.
As an avid user of LowEndBox providers, Raindog runs an empire of LEBs, from tiny boxes for VPNs, to mid-sized instances for application hosting, and heavyweight servers for data storage and complex databases. He brings both technical rigor and real-world experience to every piece he writes.
Beyond the command line, Raindog is a lover of German Shepherds, high-quality knives, target shooting, theology, tabletop RPGs, and hiking in deep, quiet forests.
His goal with every article is to help users, from beginners to seasoned sysadmins, get more value, performance, and enjoyment out of their infrastructure.
You can find him daily in the forums at LowEndTalk under the handle @raindog308.
I got a custom made VPS through LittleCreek and the owner was so nice and overall provided me with an amazing VPS experience.
I have not seen any downtime on my vps and for what I have paid its really worth it so if you plan to switch provider like I did from VirMatch to something more stable and on the long run then go for LittleCreekHosting theyve been in the buisness since the 90’s from what I saw.
I am also waiting for my LowEndTalk account to get activated and ill post another positive review over there.
@LittleCreekHosting Floyd if you are reading this then please keep doing what you are doing your services are amazing and I have been recommending it to my friends ! :)
Thank you for the kind words.
Is this offer still available? What;s the link to order?
Don’t know if links are allowed. Just search “surprise sale” over on LET. You will find the one for Little Creek.
Got it, thanks!
