    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    What I saw was something that made no sense as posted in my last comment.  @mtwiscool was legit to post (absent some forthcoming example of where the kid went off the rails today somehow else), but now is not being allowed to post / participate.  That just conflicts with itself. Plus therein I...

    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    Thanks for the background @HalfEatenPie. The IRC ban wasn't about this lad, rather it was banning a whole popular low-cost network today - Quadranet.  Sorry for the confusion there Pie. His ban today (mtwiscool) for spamming... essentially.... Did I miss something other than this one thread he...

    Wordpress alternatives?

    There is a new Wordpress 4.0 release today BTW.... https://wordpress.org/news/2014/09/benny/ Some interesting new functionality. I am with the OP on the general weariness of such a popular piece of software and potential for grand ole hacks. The very lightweight markup/markdown flat file...

    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    Congrats on replying.  Hoping more folks do, regardless of their stance.  I am not running a popularity contest, so I don't really give a flying .... how you feel about me @lbft. 1.  Where are these civility rules?   Lack of rules, now equals civility rules.  I mean I'd rather folks just say we...

    BUDGETGEEK TELECOMS LIMITED / 32MB Club / Random Bans

    Are we a user short now?  Someone handing out random-bans, because they can? Yeah I am speaking about the @mtwiscool fellow. Then there was weird shit going on in IRC banning the whole of Quadranet from vpsB IRC. Not calling anyone out, but one of you, your moderation methods are getting...

    skype login - and what else happens

    I hate voluntarily feeding trolls, period.  The NSA, DARPA, etc. who funded much of the computing revolution are the hand behind the monitoring and tracking layer.   Let them work for my data I say.  Lazy f**ks. Subrosa.io looks like an interesting, light, in browser and private-emphasis...

    skype login - and what else happens

    Holy chatterbug software.  No wonder why logins and other functions in Skype can be so slaggy. I think any in line firewall that would proactively deny everything and require one off approvals would be a good start. Suprised a lot of us still even use Skype.  It's really garbage software.   I...

    Namecheap $5.88 Register & $3.88 Transfer

    I can believe BlueVM was compromised / credentials ahh borrowed... @DomainBop, care to remind the compromised of their legal obligations to inform customers and governmental entities? (neither has been done so far).

    Namecheap $5.88 Register & $3.88 Transfer

    There is nothing wrong with Namecheap's security or much larger domains would have been found and fried eons ago. BlueVM just got a bad case of the UGVPS.  These things happen when you deal with questional Buffaloans.

    You know paranoia is just a heightened state of awareness.  Mind you --- behavior and things on LET and LEB time and time again has been subversive and not as it appears.  The additional scrutiny I apply is much deserved and necessary, sadly. I can buy the lazy route of copying and pasting...

    DNS hosting options?

    I should note, with DNSMADEEASY you buy an annual right sized plan. $59.95 probably the plan you need. 10 million DNS lookups a month... Then you add to that: DNS Failover / System Monitoring Service $4.95 per A record per year Definitely less costly I'd think. Rage: $14 x 12 = $168 a year...

    DNS hosting options?

    Been a long time since I've used or needed DNSMADEEASY's failover.... but it does work (or did).... Fairly solid company with no frills and very straightforward functionality.... http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/services/dns-failover-system-monitoring/ The checks are built into DNSMADEEASY so no...

    What internet jobs are worth pursing?

    I believe just recently a few different studies declared college to be unsustainable and a bad financial path for many in the US.  Here in the US where students go into massive debts too often for education, and at ages where they lack very much common sense about finances, they are putting...

    I'll throw this log on the fire because it's more of the same over on LEB and looks like confusion by actual customer/VPS provider as to who/what they are buying from: LEB Offer for FTPIT ---> http://lowendbox.com/blog/ftpit-4-very-cheap-annual-offers-in-three-usa-locations/ Company 'employee'...

    and.... why is LEB accepting Fabozzi's offers VIA EMAIL????  Doesn't Fabozzi have to submit like everyone else and follow rules or what?   Can I start sending offers to you via email for my new BACKTOSCHOOLHOST? Link...

    Chicago VPS scammers

    I neglected to note this.... See, assets are fine.  Using said sites to self promote without clear disclosure on the relationship to who is listed, who is posting (and being paid by such owner) and using such to steer things for their "owner/invested" companies violates a multitude of State and...

    Chicago VPS scammers

    You know not rage until the 'guberment comes looking for answers and puts your real life on pause due to your hobbies. That's where things are going to end up and the only thing saving you is jurisdiction, maybe.  Long overdue big picture. Kossen really perplexes me.  He has the right stuff and...

    Computer chairs. What do you recommend?

    I am about 80% of the time standing (my standup desk) and 20% sitting at such on a flat wood high bar stool style chair with a simple back that is about 12 inches high. Standing is a bit problematic as I like to be barefoot. My floors are aged hard oak - double layers of oak.   It's not so...
