We all have servers :)  Now making them useful, silent and beneficial to your living environment :) Years ago I churned through electric like that for servers, when clock speeds were 1Ghz or less.   Today though, no need for that, usually.

I can't say myself since I am uninvolved.  Just received the database. I will say from my position the security at vpsAce is lacking.  They were hacked then their outage page was hacked.  I suspect their site and other assets are all backdoored. The hash on disk was swiped too.   So, seems...

Quite a target any DDoS firm would be. I didn't mention it since that for sale payload isn't something I've gotten hold of.   Unsure what whoever has exactly.  

The people's dirty hippie funk scent State of Seattle. ;) As far as regulations go and notification,  the test in enough states involves you doing business with their citizens and in some states a certain minimum of customers therein.   Foreign company ARE NOT EXEMPT.

I *HATE* your company name, sadly. (no offense meant or indication of your technical ability) It's part of my ongoing cloud joke = vapor.  Vapor quickly evaporated.  'Nuff said. Vaprnode sells dedicated servers :(   Highly recommend a dedicated/facility brand.

We need more permanent refugee offers. "Unhappy with your subpar provider, send us your last invoice with plan information and we'll price match".   Extend the offer from now until infinity.

Monthly bills, at a national average of about 15 cents US per KwH. Bills have ballooned in past decade from 7-8 cents a KwH.

Can you say #FAIL. Mind you, again, I hate to see any company fail, but lowering your trousers to that level and saying just take it is insanity.

Now this is my speed. Might you have a write up/how to?   I often have servers with unused video RAM doing zip.  This is excellent idea.

Time to allocate some of that electric money towards better fans and cooling. Stuff it in a rack, a sound proof rack. Get lower RPM fans with larger arms on it. Liquid cooling. I use to heat a house with waste heat from my servers.

^--- still doesn't dawn on me why Taylor was mentioned therein when wasn't a customer and the company would have no way of complying with whoevers request to reactivate and boost service.

Here's a good one: More of them profiteering for over sold.  Spread the love around.  With flashcache, you to can oversell like a champion.  Or that's the concept. 32GB RAM E3 again.  Selling 2GB plans off of it and looks like a lack of servers vs. containers.

How often were the complainers logging in to manage anything? There are two different issues there....  1. They might not like how the panel works vs. old solution.   2. They might be confused about billing being the admin area (those would be dyed in wool OpenVZ+Solus customers I bet). I...

What's funny about the extortion piece is "Taylor S________" doesn't exist... Mind you, omitting the poor chaps name.

This is true also.  Idea here is that you have ample RAM and a small dataset so the OS cache knows/does best. I tend to optimize machines to use the RAM.  The means maxing out MySQL on RAM,  ample consumption by other cache layers to boost MySQL (i.e key based storage).  It's a different...

No joke. I am looking through the database.  That stood out since was one of the very last tickets.  Random query luck.

Somewhere right now some monitoring company has silly payloads that size or less.  Probably all different non-cacheable data though. Seriously, real workloads would be appreciated in testing.  Today that's a page with 50 inclusions and 375 different elements.  A big pig pile later we realize...

and... it appears from the data that they were given some prior notice, albeit extortion of the hack.   So their failure to let customers know and proper authorities is unforgivable: Note the date: 2013-11-13 02:35:02

This is ugly. Someone at vpsAce/B2 Net/Servermania/etc. needs to go compare that portion with the on disk crypto for WHMCS. Yeah, I've truncated the hash.   

PS: You can use chunks of RAM for a RAM drive as well and sync files from RAM to disk or other way depending.   I've been doing this for decades on all sorts of platforms.
