yep its still a security problem

yep today linode.junc.eu is gone, no need for this vps anymore, i succesfully
did a dd o that server to my new home asus pn50, where i can mount it "mount
-o loop -t ext4 ddimagefile /mnt" :)

on windows i had hoped for rufus would do this aswell, but non bootelble
ddimages is fatal, lol

i need to pay less on linode.com now :)
