Nah. I've got some physical silver and that's about it. I do have an old Investopedia stock market simulator account from 2008 where I got to trade 'fake' money on the live market, and it's doing actually alright. I don't make enough money to to risk it on the live market anyhow.

Seems to me that these issues aren't really all that uncommon.

Haha. I didn't even click his link, I didn't realize it required silverlight for their streetview data. Well, that's a bummer. Obviously not supported on CrunchBang, either. At least their regular maps work without it, and have that awesome feature to rotate the image to see it from different...

Bing maps is really nice. I love the birds-eye view and the ability to actually rotate the around an area to view it from different directions. Really neat.

Gimbal and skids on the way.

Hey, thanks for joining everyone! Looking forward to seeing you post around the forums!

Awesome tool. Thanks for the time and effort spent creating this. :)

Was raised by The Simpsons, so that will always have a place in my heart. Though, more recently (the past year or two) I've watched the IT Crowd, That Mitchell and Webb Look, Peep Show and The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. The UK has a good sense of humor. Also the old Whose...

How does one even hijack a domain name? Does anyone with more knowledge than myself want to do the vpsBoard community a favor and write a basic guide on preventing this from happening to them?

Haha, you and me both!  :) I'll have to check out Bing's street view. Their maps are already better than Google's as is.

Hey there, I'm currently using StatusCake and Rage4 together as part of a failover solution. In short, when StatusCake detects downtime, Rage4 will failover to a different server which will display an error message, Twitter feed, and a link to IRC. This setup, it works. The issue is, once the...

I'm changing the title of the thread to, "BlueVM's domain name was hijacked" for sake of being accurate at this time. I understand at the time this thread was created it was not clear what had happened, but it's clear now.

If they have control over their Twitter again, would it be safe to imagine they have control over their domain now too? Twitter support is non-existent. I've tried contacting those bastards so many times in the past. I can only assume that they got Twitter access again from regaining control of...

Well, it looks like it's a domain hijack and not an actual sale. https://twitter.com/BlueVM_VPS/ Plus their domain was pointing to a free web host, and not something on the CC network. I don't think they have sold, at least not in any official manner.

No worries. Well, StatusCake does ping it and will even report that it is 'Up', but Rage4 just doesn't automatically revert back to the BuyVM server. I've tried a couple different settings but I need to sit down and dig through some documentation to see what I am doing wrong, or even see if...

Fixed. Damn failover setup is quite sub-par and doesn't automatically fail-back to the main server. As such, I have to manually revert back to this one... it appears I did not switch WWW back to this server... If you ping it, you'll see that went to a Ramnode box in NYC. vpsBoard is hosted on...

After a long week, sometimes you just need to get outside and play. :) The range is finally open again! Sadly the 200 yard range was closed, but I was having fun at the 50 and 100 yard. Got my scope dialed in at 50, took it over to 100 and was getting on paper everytime after some minor...
