    Seeking servers sponsorship for project

    Problem with legal folks isn't what you per se have when they show up. Such apps and attention are bound to get a perma tap installed and legal methods of preventing you from telling anyone such is and has been in place. With that, there is data and things to get at when/where users return to...

    Seeking servers sponsorship for project

    So this is on-site, same website communications thing...  Means all data stays in one place. Means all connections are made to one place. Highly centralized single point of failure, ala web 1.0. Screenshots are doing you a disservice.  Looks like some backend admin panel thing, not some mega...

    Digital Ocean gets $50 Million Credit Line

    Rackspace HAS been looking / in play for someone to acquire them. No doubt this is the DO model.  Look at who financed them.  They aren't in business to lose cash on external investments.  I mean their pet projects have been various fizzle, but investments externally are way more strict, profit...

    Looking VPS for VPN $3-$5/yearly

    OP didn't ask for port speed or RAID :) CPU 2.5% is funny.   I don't think he really means 2.5%, but.... Hostrail, isn't that / wasn't that the name of an old #hostfail ?  Better than 32mb.club for a name.

    Multiple Monitors turned different ways...

    But your rig as photographed are all normal horizontal oriented.  Do you vertically rotate some, at times? The whole bunk bed thing is just great, like I said prior.   I may scrounge one just for a crazy work zone.

    Digital Ocean gets $50 Million Credit Line

    So.... $50 million is a big chunk no matter what.  Especially these days as growth type investment (lots of deals are mergers lately). OVH is big, how big though? Hard to get size on and lots of talk for a long time about French government being behind their money in funny ways.   Aliyun?  Is...

    Looking VPS for VPN $3-$5/yearly

    Unlimited bandwidth on annual basis for $2-$5 per year?  Yeah, may I not troll thee back.   Only such plan I can think of is 32mb.club,  renamed to Hostrail.net --> http://hostrail.net/ 1.99/YearStarter 64MB Unlimited 1.5GB RAID 1 Shared fair use Nat IPV4 (Shared) 131,072 (/111) Native...

    Multiple Monitors turned different ways...

    Well, that looks like you are working on stilts. Are you sitting at that setup or standing? See all that width squandered on monitors and infernal need to scroll to see anything (below the fold)... Yes indeed why I am after a mixed rotation setup.   I think with sideways monitor, I'd stick...

    How well did that work for you @Ald  ?  Did you stick with it for a while?  Where were annoyances with such a setup?

    Multiple Monitors turned different ways...

    Like most folks here I multitask and my computer is used for all sorts of tasks.... Everything from web browsing, to playing music, to watching random videos. Part of what has long irked me is the horizontal resolution on displays - an inheritance from earlier days and TV. Contemplating...

    Congress passes bill allowing warrantless forfeiture of private communications

    F-THE-POLICE----STATE. I read the PDF above, 12~ hours ago. The language is in there.  But, it's atypical legalese bullshit dance as all of it seems to be these days.  We should really start hanging lawyers in this country. The language applies to - intent wise - communications between NON US...

    The Pirate Bay Raided By Police, Site Down

    Are they?  Cause Piratebay seems quite offline for me... I noted some mention up above about a Costa Rica domain now... Even if they did, their redirects and such are down, so effectively offlined. Unsure why they continue this oddball fight really.  There are some legal torrents in there, but...

    Proposed updates to rules -- A discussion

    Reputation is a consideration.   Subject to abuse nonetheless. With wanting posts, offers, etc. you take the good with the bad. Being involved in promoting companies, I understand the rapid ramp up folks do just to place an offer.  Little that can honestly be done about it.   Some people just...
