local critter needs a few dollars

have you used my generator for myno's yingmotes? well I have that hosted on AWS, along with my personal website and a few other things i host. and it turns out they get kind of upset when you don't pay the bills. long story short, i need ~$40 "immediately" to avoid my account being suspended and all of my services disabled, and i'll be needing another ~$40 at the start of the next month to avoid the same issue. my checking account currently contains $3.96.

if anyone could throw a few bucks at my paypal (hello@trashbyte.io) or ko-fi (ko-fi.com/trashbyte it would be very much appreciated

What do you need AWS to provide you? I have a fixed ipv4 address, 100mbps upload, and a 13 year old mac mini running linux.

if that's an offer then i appreciate it, but i'd really be more comfortable with the control AWS gives me. reliable remote administration that Just Works, snapshots and recovery, absurd uptime guarantees, the freedom to use uncommon ports without a home ISP blocking them, and so on.

fair enough! i was just thinking purely in terms of offering to host the yingmote site and letting you ssh/sftp in to touch it as needed. I can't offer any of the safety of a VPS as if you or I hose the system it's hosed for real
