I can see such a thing happening, but informally. CC/HVH has been gracious and allows some companies to run up invoices.  They don't want to deal with implications of a direct hostile takeover, nor do they want to deal with thousands of customers put offline due to payment shortfall.   So it's...

Damn!  That will teach me to go sleep at night and not stay glued to the intertubes like usual. April 15th: "Now the next question is how long until he goes offering no dollar VPS on some lowly shit hardware?  I thought the industry was going to get a longer vacation from his insanity.  Oh...

Now the next question is how long until he goes offering no dollar VPS on some lowly shit hardware?  I thought the industry was going to get a longer vacation from his insanity.  Oh well.

Yeah lots of "lowend" providers disable this feature.   I get that they get beat by the criminal element in the segment. I am making my rounds soon to enable this pre-pay dumping of funds, accepting it otherwise or if just blah about it, dumping said providers.   Stuff like this sounds like...

Anyone, again, get that price fix agreement on licensing :) Complete new development build isn't free.  Couple that with market share.   Looking forward to paying more when / if they actually release this?

Not picking at you here, just the general concept of intangible. Same cloudy definition of delivered nothing can be applied to probably half of the economy these days. Bought any service that isn't per action inventoried and tracked = same boat.  Subscribed to any service for TV that doesn't...

Yeah, well not directly, obviously... But it's rather common among spammers to pre-pay and drop a big cash chunk in your bank ahead of their antics.  They are a generous group per se in that regard, as you apply defacto forfeiture of those funds upon their mess making.

Ahh who stiffed you Munzy :) ?  The Cloudshards folks?  Do tell.   Stealing part is troubling.  Legitimately stolen from? I am not intending on going crazy depositing free welfare handouts for providers to ahh theft, but rather just some future funding for the trustworthy proven companies (ones...

Effect that sun, planets and other space "stuff" has on the planet is big big pile of change on this planet.  Sun can cook us all to death and ruin this planet in rather simple fashion I imagine.  Likewise, less active cycles of the sun and reduced sun love for us results in well, a cooling...

I am not raining on this thread one way or another... But I will chime in to say this hosting company habit where McBigCo owns multiple brands and the brands aren't per se attached is rather insane.   McBigCo's don't tend to doink around with little aspiring whatever pimple dream companies...

I've been a customer of so very many companies.   Big common shortfall that annoys me monthly and which I just can't understand why providers don't see it: WHY DON'T YOU ACCEPT PRE-FUNDED ACCOUNTS? This is to say, accepting deposits of funds. Every month I have a basket of invoices that show...

The issue on my end was more of blocking elements - javacript namely.   Something plugin wise was fubaring/conflicting.   Draft functionality working now for me, per se.

So what I do is subscribe to multiple DDoS protected services and have for eons.  Those different companies are all in a pool of front end servers (ala CDN reverse proxy).    I might spin up another IP to separate projects.  Outside of that, it's a platform for whatever I shove back behind it...

Remember I feel for GVH customers, at least the honest :)   Those folks have been through a ton... I get pissy like the person about spam, remarketing, etc. Guess the biggest sin herein is running a list with former customers.  Other companies do that, and it's just bad generally.  I don't...

Here we go again. Doesn't anyone test THEIR campaigns before hitting submit? Unsubscribes need tested too.   Ditto for scrubbing the mailing list, prior unsubscribes, etc. Let me say this, when I see providers saying 'SPEND DOLLARS AND WE GIVE YOU MORE DOLLARS' like this, to this degree, it's...

... and I just realized my VPN tonight is living in Canada ... so, Ebay not logged in assumed I am in Canada. Canada charges import taxes like this for products bought from US sellers?  Hefty.

I was looking at surge power strips to finish off my current workspace. Seller in California, so same country. Ebay showing additional surcharge to purchase from such company: Import charges: $9.33 (amount confirmed at checkout)  No additional import charges on delivery Anyone seen...

Interesting Magpul has phone cases :) I have a decent waterproof coffin case for my Samsung phone.  Whole weird style and gloss cover on that made it about as easy to handle as a wet fish, so in a case it went week #1. Cases out there for tablets are pretty damn blah.  Would be nice to find a...
