- Installing Docker on Ubuntu 22.047 minStep-by-step install of Docker Engine and Docker Compose on Ubuntu 22.04 from the official repository: removing conflicting packages, key and repository, verification, running without sudo and full removal.
- Idle-time mining on Vast.ai: Pearl (PRL) as a background job12 minWhile a Vast.ai server sits unrented, its GPU can mine Pearl, the most profitable GPU coin of autumn 2026. The marketplace's built-in background job stops the miner in about 15 seconds when a client arrives and starts it again when they leave. Step-by-step CLI setup, tested on a live server. Free.
- Linux commands for a GPU host: a searchable cheat sheet12 minOver a hundred commands you need on a Vast.ai server every week: GPUs, disks, network, services, Docker, logs and the Vast daemon itself. A one-line explanation for each and keyword search. Free.
- Hashcats on an RTX 4090: how long a cat takes and what it really costs7 minLive numbers from hashcats.fun: a 42–45-bit target, 4–35 trillion hashes per cat, 15 minutes to 2 hours on one RTX 4090 in CUDA. And why the bottleneck is not the card but the $206 entry price.

- Backup tunnel: how to survive a VPS outage without losing clients8 000 ₽Every VPS at one provider rebooted at once — and the rigs went down with them. The solution is a backup VPS in another country, which the machines jump to automatically. 9 chapters: what happens to the score, why the usual advice fails, and a ready failover script with rollback. 39 min.
- The machine is “inactive” yet everything works: a stuck vast controller5 000 ₽A rare failure no routine check catches: the link is perfect, the tunnel is up, clients are running — yet the marketplace considers the machine dead. The diagnosis and a watchdog that fixes it on its own. 11 min.
- VM mode on a multi-GPU server: from BIOS to the first client5 000 ₽Virtual-machine mode opens a client segment that container rentals never see. 9 chapters on setting up a multi-GPU server: the three admission conditions, ACS in the BIOS, hardening the cards against the power-saving trap, a controlled ladder of 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 cards in virtual machines before the first client, three failures of the enabling script that report the wrong thing, and the main trap of a multi-GPU build — the marketplace's hourly job that wipes the VM flag. Working scripts and watchdogs included. 63 min.
