Facebook Origins & the CIA Connection. Just a Conspiracy?
Facebook Origins & the CIA Connection. Just a Conspiracy?
29 May
"Facebook is associated with the CIA for the purpose of profiling all members." Or is that just a load of old balls? Dunno, but the video makes for a great conspiracy.
Basically, probably best not to profile yourself as a commie jihadist with a penchant for liver & chianti. Just say your a neo-con who wages war on Sundays, and they'll maybe give you a prize.
Hey, if you're gonna poke me, just don't use the taser, bro!

Hello Friend,
I think that this site is great but
why don't you use a free panel to
set up and configure whole VPS?
You could do it with webmin,
the linux commands are too tough
for newbies like me!

@Josh - tx for that. You make a valuable point.
If you follow my VPS Bible from start to finish, using the copy/paste commands, I think you'll find you'll learn the command line pretty fast and your confidence will soar ...
... m8, I was a newbie only a few months ago, so I promise you I know what I am saying.
I'll be addressing precisely this issue in the VPS Bible series, in Part 16: Add a Control Panel...and that will be publishing next week.
