Wonder about Comcast and their notorious clogged common network points.   I've seen similar odd slowdowns in the past with another cable competitor. Have you tried Kimsufi speed tests and/or other downloadables at the same location?  That's my typical approach to debugging this stuff. These...

FBI Admits Control of Malware-Spewing Tor Servers ...malware attack on the Tor network used a Firefox exploit to send the personal data of Tor users to an IP address in Reston, Virginia.  FBI's "computer and internet protocol address verifier" (CIPAV) spyware iniatiative.... a new Wired report...

^--- not that again.  Can't we all just have a group hug like in daycare? "Turnons: Non-USA countries" This has been a big plus lately with all the rampant spying unearthed.  Thank the heavens for whistleblowers, insiders, and other folks who sacrifice their livielihoods and well being to tell...

An armed public is the enemy of the State - or at least a speed bump in many. There are plenty of armed European countries.  Switzerland comes to mind.   Funny their tradition of gun ownership and never having been overrun by invaders in modern times. Serbia, the provincial kicking post of...

Chicks riding swinging balls nude? Don't think it should be on open airwaves in plain site or anything.  But no issue otherwise.   She's rich and isn't horrible on the eyes, yet.    She's working with what she has.  Otherwise, she'd be dancing for dollas down the street.

1. Policies that suck... Often boilerplate non sense that was boosted from elsewhere.  Where is the ToS and AUP? 2. RAM for free.  Come on now, you aren't selling me real resources. 3. Large disk (i.e. 100's of GBs worth)... Do you really run huge RAIDS or SAN? 4. Lack of company info.  Who...

I remember when kids use to bring guns to school for school clubs. No one ever was shot, none of the issues of today with youths and firearms violence. When people says guns = cowards, that's not really true.  I've been shot before by an armed robber, in the back.  The robber was cowardly, no...

Group PM feature?  What is that? I see the privatizing of more content on here and limiting threads to logged in areas being apparent new addons. How about others?

BTW: Hoping to see this as a living document with more grafted onto the original tutorial piece.   This is gold for those using/contemplating Wordpress.

This is why I don't run IPv6, even if available.  I explicitly disable it. Unsure why companies aren't addressing it as a service offering.

$3 a month.  This is another must buy addon. Packet limits and total pipe appear to be similar to BuyVM's offer, if not identical. Wondering what the latency from CNServers will be since they are in Portland.   Realizing it's regional, but unsure of the network upstreams and routing.  Anyone...

OVH's network really has impressed me in Canada and to the States.  The throughput issues, curious who else is seeing those bursts and fits? @W1H-Lee, hit the issue head on.   Support is usually a cost uptick for responsiveness.  If you buy the bargain line with bargain pricing, it isn't a...

So, do they use these double deckers for normal morning metro transit buses?  Never been a fan of their safety generally. I don't see any of them here and haven't in many years. What is the cause of the accident?  Failed signs/train crossing?   Bus parked on the tracks? Sad.

Background checks aren't particularly effective.  I've never agreed with them.  Punishment under law is to be proximate to the misdoings of the individual and often time limited (i.e. not open ended time without end). People intending on inflicting mortal harm randomly aren't obeying laws ever...

Guns should be in every civilized house. Regulation of such is frankly pathetic. Stripping gun ownership is near the top of the list every time tyranny comes knocking.

"some people live for provider bashing" I have a life outside of babysitting the provider(s) who are doing stupid and the illegal.  It's fine that you don't care, just ignore.  Perhaps we need an ignore feature on here, topically, socially and personally...  Have your filter BUBBLE of reality. ...

These things happen sometimes with crazy marcom folks left unattended.  But I don't think that group of midoers is to blame on this one. Make promos like that 3€ for new customers only and limit one.

No doubt, you keep on things.   Plenty of updates, constant hacks against WP.  Plugins that are very questionable.  Plus everyone using it = inevitable mass issues.

Feel free to challenge whatever and feel free not to read whatever.   Unsure why folks like you don't have an ignore filter on your eyeballs.    You can't stay out of the threads, you have to come chugging along, backing traffic up at the traffic accident. This isn't preschool and it isn't mob...

Hello OVH, welcome to the low end pricing plague.   Same mess VPS industry has been dealing with for years. I think OVH ran out of free France and EU handouts and now is stuck with reality time + orders they can't fulfill from customers who jumped from much costlier services to the loss...
