    Do you have health insurance?

    In big population areas I am seeing a massive increase of walk in non emergency alternative healthcare facilities...  These are for profit businesses for common medical matters... Supposedly semi-reasonable for services.  Take it there market is the whiney folks who run to emergency rooms for...

    Do you have health insurance?

    Bahaha... here comes political rant in 3...2...1... See I never understood why "health" care doesn't reward you for health.... Pay towards preventative things - like proper nutrition, exercise, non ingestion of poisions.... and of course such NEVER seems to cover dental when dental issues are...

    Raspberry Pi Model B+

    That's funny.. I sold a property and entirely forgot a bunch of gear wired and on in a property...  remembered 2 years later when looking for something... Totally could do that with a Pi these days.... since I like integrating gear into structures when I can...

    Of course they do...    If they don't multiple spy agencies / outsourced intelligence agencies are hosting on their network and making multiple unauthorized backups and derivatives... Ownership is 9/10th's of the law... so I guess they can claim more derivatives and thereby ownership...

    Need a new keyboard

    Bahaha... heavy card stock works even better... useless business cards do quite well... Years ago I used this method with a health company whining about my eccentricity on replacing gear for new employees.... Here watch this - swipe with biz card... Send that pile off to the lab for analysis...

    Need a new keyboard

    I love the IBM Model M's :)  Was just tripping on one the other night in old gear pile of mine... might clean it up and get it wired up...  Crazy to see new-in-box ones listed for $600 on Ebay right now. I tend to use el cheapo keyboards with center hump style and sculpted overall area...

    ColoScamming?

    I encourage folks to get out and see facilities nearby.  Many are glad to give tours to potential customers and have time/staff for doing such. Not all DC's are the same, but generally, most are very tidy and fairly strict about what can be put in such.  DC's are the wild west and have to...

    ColoScamming?

    No one has seen inside the Buffalo lair... considering the shambles state of the city of Buffalo... well... let's just say nothing would surprise me. In fairness, CC doesn't stafff that location.  I don't think they staff anything except Buffalo... Require DC staff for hands and eyes on...

    ColoScamming?

    I know that... but the DDoS... that was after Joel had hands on the sites/possession... DDoS was cover to move things to CC and distract everyone, or so they thought.  So no one "caught onto" CC's invisible hand in the post-giveaway deal. I mean big picture, CC doesn't have DDoS protection and...

    vpsBoard: Creation Date: 2012-11-27 01:16:00Z Forum went up months later I do believe...  Early 2013. LET hacks, admin access given to everyone, ColoCrossing found in there running things, was that May 12th, 2013. Yeppers,  @MannDude, correct me if I am wrong.

    ^--- that's funny.  Been a long history about who and what vpsBoard is / came to be / etc.  If you are new, lots of catching up to do. Curtis owns, runs, babysits and copes with vpsBoard.... BuyVM is a provider like all the rest here. BuyVM however is used to host parts of vpsBoard.

    ColoScamming?

    ColoCrossing has lots of funnies.... True funnies... One such funny is a statement to paraphrase, 'You will never see a DDoS coming from our network'.  This was a response when people pointed at CC in the past as being the source of such malicious traffic.  A second one that I posted about...

    Colocrossing Achieves Top 5 Rank

    Honestly,  big picture and look around the room.... Noticed the nastygrams by customers on various sites in past couple of months for CVPS, 123Systems, BlueVM? About laggy to no support..... Imagine thousands of customers at each --- and imagine IPs getting blacklisted by big blocks - a few...
