    Burst.net circling the drain?

    Well the brothers who founded Burst.net are dicking around the segment.  At last check they were launching a VPS brand.  No idea if they have.  When they do, I'll be reminding everyone. One of the brothers was seen recently on WHT claiming he was screwed in what happened at Burst and trying to...

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

    I've seen so many of these "bills" from sad asshat factory. Deceptive practice, no doubt about it. But, it has been pretty effective in  getting people to overpay and transfer to these chaps. Now let's not leave out their proper name / website: namejuice.com Interesting on their address...

    How do you like your VPSes?

    KVM is nice, but I tend to just take OpenVZ, ideally with slew of modules enabled by default. 256MB instances are good by me.  Some spots 128MB. Drives, I want RAID 10 and a big chunk of disk (50GB or more).  I detest the puny disk allocations. Debian, yes. 1TB of bandwidth or more.

    B2 Net Solutions / Servermania - Shifting ColoCrossing's Spam

    Dropping their ASN is bound to happen as more admins wake up and realize the origin of so many of their headaches. All this time, only a handful of us have been looking at the waste stream flowing from CC.  Certainly are small networks entirely blocking CC's IP ranges already.   It's about...

    B2 Net Solutions / Servermania - Shifting ColoCrossing's Spam

    Still on vacation time, so this is just a glancing jab. When ColoCrossing recently stemmed the flow of spam on their network, I said to a number of people that if CC continued to do so, they would be shifting their SPAMMERS to "partners".  That is to say, hiding said bad actors on other ASNs...

    update on $1 per year vps idea (32MB Club)

    His threads remind me too much of GVH's. Both lads would do much better looking for peer acceptance in real life and getting a social / peer group offline.  Folks around here run businesses / are providers mainly.  So the scathing criticism of 32mb.club is well based and accurate for the most...

    Global domination I suspect :) Or tired of the frosty north.

    The gun thread

    Killing is part of the grand recycling plan.   If you didn't kill something, you would starve my friend.  Take it from a veghead. When it comes to Leroy the Crackhead vs. my family and their safety, the pump shotgun does well with Leroy and his crack super powers.   If you want to Bruce Lee...

    What's your car?

    New Z's along with most vehicles kind of lost it when everything went so non-metal. Old cars, absent all the safety crap, many of people totalled and lived to tell the tales.  New cars since late 1990's onward leave me feeling naked.   One of the reasons I cut the speed out :) But the 350's...

    What's your car?

    I use to love the Z cars.. The original ones, Datsun.  While not 0-60 line champs, I could take my 280 series out and blow 100MPH sustained all afternoon, and did.... Last time I was in a Z car, it was 155MPH and the lines were solid on the road.... I am a recovering speed freak.  Glad to be...

    Summer Break - see you in August!

    Right now, mainly perennial plants.  Lots of herbs, flowering plants, etc. Trying to get more medicinal and tea type herbs. Cost of plants has just skyrocketed.  Like a simple herb plant at a nursery here might run you $7-10.... Same plant I can grow out from a cutting in 30-45 days from...

    What's your car?

    I am fond of bicycles... I cycle where and when I can.  Been a tough year 2014, so behind on getting up to my annual cycling mile quota.  Had been doing 4-6000 miles a year in past years.  IN longer timeline was well over 10k miles a year. Cars are a necessary evil for business aka...

    Fiberhub running on generator power

    Fiberhub indeed has had a better year this current one.... Just reoccurring power related issues no matter how far we stretch the calendar. Hopefully utility upgrades along with facility investment put the power issue to bed permanently. As for other facilities and their crazy stories...

    Computer chairs. What do you recommend?

    I like stand up desks and big picture people should be working with both if they are desk bound ape.  Switching in the day from one to the other. Sitting is just horrendous and takes time off your life and health. I can usually tell who is a desk ape from 50 feet away....  They have that big...

    Rage4 Network DNS

    When you do change your name server, it will take DAYS to propogate.  Keep that in mind.  Your site/whatever will be down for some subset of people for up to about 72 hours maximum. Here are the docs I found from Rage4: Rage4 DNS - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) ← Services How to update my...

    Summer Break - see you in August!

    Spent today taking a literal nap.  Haven't done one of those in probably 5 years...  Did some much needed gardening, with more needed the next few days, my schedule allowing.  Working on rooting cuttings for new plants.  Did some rooted creeping transplants to better spots and put a good 40+...

    Rage4 Network DNS

    Rage4 is random about some documentation. But, what you need to do is log into Rage4, setup your domain... In there it should tell you the Rage4 name servers to use. From there, you take those servers and run over to your domain registrar and in their tools/management stuff, should be able to...
