    The gun thread

    Agreed. This is one of the most terrifying yet is not as dumb as some of those accidents, but here is what happens when you fail to account for a high-speed high-caliber round's ability to ricochet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ABGIJwiGBc

    Secure Dragon P512VZ DDoS Protected in Portland, OR.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks dd/cachefly tests aren't terribly helpful. I really, really wish SecureDragon's pricing scaled in a more linear way for resources, it's hard for me to justify the prices on the more 'premium' services compared to RamNode/BuyVM when included bandwidth is...

    The gun thread

    Allegedly*, according to guys I worked with at my last job, they can be had for as low as $50 at gun shows in Indiana, I'm guessing from people who bought them en masse and had to sort out the war-worn ones. I've never been big on guns but a Mosin Nagant would be cool to have for range...

    Ukraine - Russia Situation

    This was effectively a win-win situation for Putin from the outset, it's dumb that the Fox News crew is harping on Obama for not 'putting Putin in his place' or whatever dumb Cold War era tough-guy diplomacy mindset they are obsessed with. If anything, they should criticize him for playing into...

    Any unique web hosts?

    http://www.exoticvps.com/ is the big list, just make sure to check reviews before you pick any 'unique' locations as quite a few of those listed there are either defunct or terrible. There are some real gems though

    BlueVM and the great labor rights of exploiting labor

    This is not even close to volunteer work though if you are 'building up a company' without pay

    Mt.Gox shuts down, is insolvent

    Also, anyone who ever said to themselves "I am going to entrust my money to a website formerly known as 'Magic The Gathering: Online Exchange' which runs an in-house trading system programmed by amateurs" ...well, I can't say they have my pity.

    Mt.Gox shuts down, is insolvent

    It gets better/sadder/funnier: http://recode.net/2014/02/24/the-mt-gox-bitcoin-exchange-has-disappeared/ All the other exchanges involved in that joint message seem to be doing a little whitewashing of their own (I'm betting at least some of their finances will be somehow tied into these...
