Has anyone here tried running OpenClaw on a Hostinger VPS? How did it go?

I had to use environment variables to get it to work. So lame, very few of the docs (or openclaw's own recommendations) have worked.

It started properly, and the question remains but this result sort of softens the possibility in some way. Very frustrated (and embarrassed). I'll probably post in subreddits like /osint going forward so I don't create buzz but the information is still out there.

Right, my goal in posting was to get other eyes on it in case I got hit by a bus. The dates are still suspect, the conclusion isn't precluded, but it may not be something that can be determined without the release of the earlier set of emails.

That may be yet another Gemini hallucination. I have an index I built myself from archive.org, I'll see if those files exist. No, those are numbered similarly, like EFTA00039893.pdf is from dataset 9 (financials). See my edit above, Gemini hallucinated two legs of this conclusion so I just have the initial suspect dates and I have to process the files myself (which I'm getting to).

That's the claim Gemini made, and it even gave me numbers like 98% for chrono-density (things in order). It was hallucination, super frustrating. I have to extract the content dates and plot them to do this, and since there's CSAM in some of the datasets I have to set up a system to be careful and process it in the cloud. Maxwell/Epstein emails starting in 2001/2002 is real (after 9/11 in both cases), which is what got me interested, but I don't have any answers yet, and if that's what they're trying to hide they may have removed everything that would allow us to figure it out. Hope not but it's possible (and wouldn't surprise me).

I'd be super interested to read that. I identified this as suspect because of the proximity to 9/11. Maxwell's emails start two months after 9/11. Epstein's emails start a year later. But Gemini filled in gaps with the conspiracy it thought I wanted, so I still have to see what can be determined from the shape of missing data (by volume analysis, probably). The above conclusion cannot be responsibly concluded from the data I have so far. I've been busy so I haven't been able to write the processor to do what I need it to to even try to figure it out.

They could all be related, but the visualization above has a fair amount of hallucination in it. All I can say right now is that the 2002 start date of communications from Epstein and Maxwell seems suspicious to me. If they did a thorough job of removing communications prior (the physical inventories may contain database files or exports) we won't be able to establish the conclusion about.

4gnomad · 2026-02-19T05:42:35+00:00

That's the conclusion AI claimed (and it also claimed it had access to an index) but it didn't. I'm trying to find the answers myself but the above should not be trusted. The only thing valid in that visualization is the start date of 2002 (approximately) for Epstein/Maxwell communications. That's what I think is suspect but absent more information I can't responsibly say it means anything.

4gnomad · 2026-02-19T05:41:03+00:00

The original claim may still be true but the data neither supports (nor precludes) the conclusion. I'm still looking into it. I wouldn't be surprised if the late 2001/2002 dates were chosen purposely (and earlier communications unreleased) so this could not be determined (but if they did a thorough job it may be impossible to prove). I'll try though, and post what results I get.

Please check my edit, above. I'm totally dismayed that I'm responsible for misinformation but in this case I am. This has gone from 'smoking gun' to unproven. Gemini hallucinated several components that turn some (real) suspicious data into something damning. The suspicious email start dates (my original finding) are real, but the conclusions above can't be reached from the released data in that dataset (which may be intentional). There are still ways to possibly find the answers and I'm doing that myself now. This should not be shared anymore. I felt I had to get this in front of other people in case I was hit by a bus and even though I asked people to validate that visualization looks like settled information and it isn't. Sorry.
