I would throw handfuls of money at Aldryic's face if he could bottle up his magic and send some our way.

I was pricing out colocation in Portland and transit there is expensive. It's cheaper to colocate with CNServers than it is any place else in the area. If CNServers offered a non-DDOS protected network we'd probably have a VPS node on that and sell LEBs there.

Nope, skid problem. They were selling like hotcakes but they were going to the wrong people who in turn resulted in a lot of abuse reports, drama, and overall wasted time. It's worth noting that we at Secure Dragon don't collect a paycheck so if I have to spend 3 hours dealing with legal...

We used to sell LEBs in Portland but we stopped that quickly when we realized it was more headache than it was worth.

You are correct. We raised our prices to keep the kids away which has helped a bit. We still get the occasional skid but it's not nearly as bad as it used to be. :)

The screenshots even showed that the e-mails were not to be shared publicly...  :wacko:

We opted for hot aisle containment where I work mainly because we use the heat from the servers to heat the office space during the winter.

I'm just speaking from personal experience. My college degree has only negatively impacted my life so it's removed value from my future. I am sure I'm not the only one either.

Joking aside, it's one thing I will always regret. If I didn't meet my wife in high school my life would be completely different.

Also, I apologize for being so negative regarding the subject. I just think I would feel better if I shared my mistakes and others could possibly learn from them. :)

Damian, I would think really really really hard about such a decision. I went to school for the same reason (a safety net for the future) and during the first year I loved it. There were a handful of classes and instructors I enjoyed but IMO I didn't get $75k worth of enjoyment nor did I learn...

There is one rule of thumb that is worth following if you want to be successful without a degree (this coming from a person with a degree that my boss didn't know about until over a year after he hired me): "It's who you know, not what you know." I am where I am now because I worked at Dominos...

Don't take out student loans, if you do it's a waste of time and money. ;) I personally don't believe college is of any real value, but then again I learned more outside of college than I did in college so maybe college is useful for others who don't learn things outside of a structured...

I used mine as my primary desktop while I waited for my new laptop (about 3 weeks due to a delay). I was very impressed with how well it ran when RDPing to Windows servers that were less than 50ms away. No loss in productivity. :D

The panel I am working on (VPSM) is in testing right now. I have about 75% of the OpenVZ controls done and I'm working on the IP management right now. I was going to upload the work that is done to a Google Code repo I setup but there are current developments and other things going on so I'm...

Anybody who expects Google (whose main business is in advertising) to be private is naive at best. Seriously, that's as bad as signing up for "free offers" on a random pop-up and expecting your e-mail not to be sold and used for spam. I commend Google for being honest, it's a rare trait in...

I'll be pushing my code here: https://code.google.com/p/vpsm/

I agree. vBoards is way too restrictive. I say you boycott vBoards and come here where it's much better. Although with your track record Disney World would be too restrictive for you so I suggest sticking to what you know and stop raging against everything. Out of 3 threads you've created here...

So I went to check out Ting to get an estimate of how much I would save with them and even if I add $50 to my monthly bill I still get: Looks like you belong in the 2% who would not save with Ting. :(

It's been 2 days, is it still running? :P
