    Computer chairs. What do you recommend?

    I think I got all the life I can get out of mine. It's going to go in a dumpster when my new chair arrives: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q5XTE8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 For $150~, it seems like a good deal. Quite a few verified reviewers comment they spend as much...

    Do you read reviews first?

    It's still comical to me to see all these CVPS/GVH/123Sys/Whateverlowendbrand get a new bad review each or every other day on places like LET. Horrible comments peppered with one or two good ones on their LEB offers and people still say, "Hmm, well, it's only $20 a year. Maybe my luck will be...

    Coffee. What are you drinking and what would you recommend?

    Although I drink coffee on most days, I do not know a lot about it and would like to further my understanding and would like to get some 'good' stuff to try out. I used to just drink Foldgers, and don't actually dislike it but when I'd run out of coffee I'd pick up something new each time when...

    What internet jobs are worth pursing?

    I'm not saying it's not doable, though it certainly wouldn't be easy and would require that you cover something that isn't already covered heavily. One thing most people seem to overlook is doing things for the town and city they live in. I am uncertain where you are, but unless you live in a...

    What internet jobs are worth pursing?

    Also, the whole 'traveling while you work' thing is idealistic. I'm not saying it can't be done, but it'd require you work in a job that doesn't have a specific set scheduling and what not. Perhaps programming related. I've thought about taking some vacation time to go some place new and get...

    What internet jobs are worth pursing?

    Well, you can still work remotely and get by. I work full time from home for a large unlimited provider, and the pay is okay. I mean, I'd always be happy to accept more but I can't complain too much. Of course, I have some additional income from this site as well. I would not like to be in a...

    Do you read reviews first?

    I read reviews for everything. Amazon has greatly replaced my need for getting some general items locally, so i'm usually sorting products by 4+ star reviews or higher and reading those before making any sort of purchase. As far as VPSes go, I do also read reviews. I'm not as much tempted by a...

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    Updated title of thread to include proper spelling of cesspit and to label it as a chat thread. (Was going to create a status update / chat / whatever thread, but this existed already). Car is out of the shop now, needs to go back next week for a quick fix... just waiting for the $20 part from...

    What's for Lunch?

    Chicken breast and bacon 12" sub on itallian herbs and cheese bread. Pepper jack cheese, spinach, green pepper, onion, tomato and jalepeno. Avocado, southwest sauce and one line of buffalo sauce right down the center. Mmmm... Cookies for later. Was out and about and decided to grab a bite.

    Come on IPv4, be better.

    TimeWarner has had quite a lot of issues this week (Nationwide outage). Unsure if that has anything to do with your issue or not.

    Net3.co officially links themselves to common machine gun shill offers on Lowendbox

    May be a new name, but the practice isn't anything new: For reference, at the time of posting that there was 20 offers published from that slew of companies in 9 months. So, twice a month or so there would be one of those brands published, with the normal every other offer being a brand in...

    Quadcopters and other tech toys?

    Depends greatly... I'd have a few hundred to drop to get started and a lot of patience. I swear, nothing comes with instructions and something you may think is relatively simple takes hours of research to get it to work properly. I think that's half the fun, though. I'm not for sure what I have...

    Places to travel?

    Just stay away from cruise ship destinations. If you're a clear tourist, people will think you just got off a random boat and are only there for a few hours so they'll treat you as such. (Try to sell you stuff aggressively, may make you a target of crime with the assumption you have to leave the...

    WHM SSL Services

    If you're referring to the self-signed certs that it uses for internal stuff, yeah, it's simple.  Go to 'Manage Service SSL Certificates' in WHM, under 'Service Configuration' and just select, 'Reset Certificate' for the service(s) in question. Since they're self-signed, you'll probably need...

    VirtKick - a simple, open source alternative to SolusVM

    Visually, it looks very nice. I'm interested to seeing it get deployed and used in some real world environments. Questions: Is there an administrative demo available? The client side demo looks nice, reminds me of the DigitalOcean panel a bit. But, HostBill's end-user UI is nice and clean, but...
