    Slushies! Come by the office!

    It's a long drive for a slushie, but if I'm ever in the area and want to beat that Alabama humidity I'll make an arrangement... Then again, Singlehop will give you a beer and Chicago is closer.... You may to throw in a burger to make it worth it. :P

    Does anyone offer Xen servers anymore?

    Been seeing this name a lot recently. May have to check them out myself. :)

    LowEndTalk has new direct Advert for HVH!

    They do this with ServerMania too I believe. Nothing new really. HVH is already publicly owned by by Colocrossing so if they want to saturate their ad space with their another ad that's their right to do so.

    Importance of a SLA

    Most SLAs are designed to look like they offer you something good, but 9 times out of 10 they're truly shit and never apply to the cause or reason why your VPS was down. (At least in my experience). For example, the SLA may only cover downtime due to network outages. But the 12 hours your VPS...

    What do you consider valid justification for IP space?

    It probably is, I can't speak on behalf of the VPS world but I know in shared hosting environments, after cPanel 11.38 it was no longer a requirement that dedicated IPs had to be assigned to accounts with SSLs...

    What do you consider valid justification for IP space?

    Due to the IPv4 depletion, I know some companies are tightening their grips on their IP space and ensuring that only needs with proper technical justification are assigned IP addresses and will require proof, as well. In the past, SSLs required their own dedicated IP however that is not the...

    How do you like your VPSes?

    If it's just a dev VPS, probably an OpenVZ server with 512MB or less of RAM. That's plenty of resources that I don't really have to optimize anything and the rest isn't important. If it's for dev, probably not using a ton of space or BW. For production, I like to go KVM where possible and do...

    Does anyone offer Xen servers anymore?

    Linode is great. I don't think I've used any of the others, but keep the suggestions coming as I'll put them on a list in case I ever need a xen server in the future as well. :)

    Do you sell domain names too?

    That's sort of how I feel too. I suppose if an established provider I was already using had a domain sale, one that was equal to or less than the cost of a domain I can purchase from Namecheap or InternetBS (my main two registars) I'd consider ordering a domain from them instead, but that's...

    Do you sell domain names too?

    Curious who here resells domain names and if anyone actually orders them. What are you using to offer them? Seems like eNom is pretty well regarded, but there are some other viable options it seems as well. It would expect that your average VPS customer would likely register their domains from a...

    What's your car?

    Damn, some of you have real nice cars. Question: Owned or leased? Paid for or still paying for? I guess the good thing about owning my Ford Focus is that it's paid for and paid for in cash. Obviously not as nice as a BMW or Land Rover or anything like that... but hopefully the ladies will find...

    ICANN suspends Brandon Gray Internet Services (AKA Domain Registry of America, DROC, etc)

    In before people claim spam junk mail is free speech and that Spamhaus ICANN is being a bully... oh wait. :)

    Fiberhub running on generator power

    Just be aware of the bus line :) Last year Miller and I got on the wrong bus. We only had like 8 blocks to walk but the bus went the opposite direction and dropped us off at the bus stop... where we had to await a new bus. Highlight was talking to someone about how hardcore Detroit was and...

    The gun thread

    I agree that killing for 'sport' is a bit whack. I don't want to kill a deer just to leave it's body behind in the field so I can hang it's head on my wall. But at the same time, I'd rather kill a turkey in the wild and eat it as opposed to buying turkey from the store. Factory farms are...

    What all are you growing? I was going to do the garden thing this year... but waited too long.

    What's your car?

    Oh yeah, my other whips: Motorcycle needs works. New tires, new starter, and needs that god awful silver paint stripped off and restored to it's original glory. Previous owner was lazy and let it sit out, uncovered in the snow all winter and apparently decided to spray paint everything that...

    The gun thread

    Sweet video @Chris Miller. Is the camera on your Google Glass that far offset or are you aiming with your left eye? Next time I go to the range I'll strap my 1080p Mobius action camera (basically a GoPro) on my rife for some neat POV shots. I don't know if I have actually posted anything from...
