I just turned off the ethernet interface of a box I was ssh'd into. The sheer idiocy of what I had just done did not hit me until after I hit enter. This box is headless. The interface did not come back up after a hard restart. I am the biggest idiot.

Who needs a system administrator when you have an eepy girl

It's kinda funny that my company was almost entirely unaffected by the largest IT disaster in history because we don't make enough money to afford for crowdstrike's multi-million dollar contracts

Out of curiousity since you seem to know a lot about the area, what's the cheapest way to make and host a website on the internet?

I pay for hosting and a domain but I have no intention of ever having even a fraction of the visitors it can handle. Plus it has some limitations on file size that are annoying to circumvent.

Ideally I'd like to keep my wordpress.org site and setup (otherwise I'd be using neocities for it) but in general I'm curious!

Thanks, youre doing great work :]

For free this is the default recommendation a lot of people I know give for PHP so this should work:

For paid hosting I currently use Aquatis for hosting because they're particularly cheap for my use case. They have a kvm vps plan for $2.50/month:

Which is half the cost of the cheapest Digital Ocean instance (as far as I know) though DO will definitely spin up an automatically configured WordPress instance.

That said I'd also really recommend looking at lowendtalk's threads on hosting if none of what I mentioned matches your needs:

Last, if you need cheap/free (depending on your usage) file hosting I recommend b2 from Backblaze and optionally Bunny CDN if you need higher speed delivery
