Decent/Cheap VPS host with 4GB RAM /20GB disk, postgreSQL/Tomcat, ssh in, etc?

I just went through a few iterations of installing my app on AWS. It relies on a big JVM and uses postgreSQL and Tomcat. I need at a minimum 4GB of RAM and at least 20GB of space which did not work on the AWS EC2 free tier. So, I am looking at $75 a month with the EC2 instance I had to use, although I guess I can stop the instance when I am not using it. This is an instance that would have 1 to 3 users and pretty much just on it during the day.

I googled around and it seems that I can get by with using another host that is a lot less expensive. Chatted with Fastcomet but they want me to use MySQL. Digital Ocean looks like I can get away with a system for $20/month. I would like to take a backup and/or snapshot of my system and maybe store it locally (I am not sure). It seems the DO low price, includes problems with billing/cancelling, and support does not get good reviews (although I probably would not need much, unless there are problems on their end).

There are so many companies in this VPS space out there...any advice/recommendations when it comes to the needs I mentioned? Anybody else out there have similar needs and found the right host?

jtbl: simple JSON tables in the terminal

`jtbl` just does the right thing. You pipe in JSON or JSON Lines and a beautiful table is printed. No configuring of headers. It will auto-wrap if your terminal is too narrow for the data. You can truncate vs. wrap, if you'd like, but other than that it's pretty simple and elegant.

Seeking advice on capturing Notifications

Hello. I'm trying to capture notifications that appear in the top section of Gnome (Ubuntu 19.10), such as email or discord. The end objective is to parse the notifications, and write out some data to a text file. I can't seem to find any programs that do this outright, or a file location where Ubuntu stores it's notifications. So if any of you know of either please share.

\*\*Edit\*\* I may have found something that works: [https://launchpad.net/\~jconti/+archive/ubuntu/recent-notifications](https://launchpad.net/~jconti/+archive/ubuntu/recent-notifications)

​

In the meantime, I'm going to try assembling my own program. In case anyone lands here trying to do the same thing, here's a list of resources that currently seem helpful.

Async shell

I have a very poor connection and I am using mosh for the time being, which is a life-saver, but I was wondering if I could use something asynchronous, possibly web based.

Basically I would write a command and the reply would be a future, in a web interface it could be a div or anything holding the future answer when available and I would be able to type new commands asynchronously and queue them for execution, with their future replies becoming visible when available. I know it is far from ideal and arguably uncomfortable, but with my current connection, this is the lesser evil.

Currently, I am using mosh and a Jupyter notebook running by a user with very limited privileges, and thinking that there has to be a better way.

Do you know of any?

Thank you

Hey guys, I'm planning to create a variant of the Solus OS for professional pentester.

Hey guys, I'm Gabriel, and I'm a web developer, trained in analysis and systems development and I'm planning to create a variant of Solus OS for pentester, as well as black arch or kali, because I believe that this system will grow a lot if become an option with more performance. As this would be a fork of the solus I think I can be redundant, I don't know, what is your opinion about it?
