    vpsBoard advertisements and availability

    Certainly lots of opportunities with this and similar software when mucking with things. One way or another the ads are coming soon.  :)  I know there is other planning to be done and still needs to organize the billing and related.

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    Alex didn't come willingly into the public with this info.  @Nick_A discovered that Alex Vial was the recipient of the BuySellAds account.   When he asked about it on LET the account info was quickly changed to some non descript Gmail or similar email account. The only reason this info was...

    The Almighty' Bitcoin Discussion.

    For the common person, somewhat true.    Although acquiring gold as a person under such, would radically improve your ability to provide for necessities. Arguably for the poorest nothing has any value.  Their needs to exist are the priority.  However the needs are facilitated typically though...

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    Oh, insurance for the new upcoming mandatory nationwide experiment.  Sure that will do many companies in.   Problem is, CC doesn't have proper employees.  Well, very few.   They love contractors and non employment work relations. What they couldn't afford or didn't want to afford before was...

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    I wonder if every time we are mean on the internet to Jon boy if Linda gets mad and punishes some kid in the daycare?

    The Almighty' Bitcoin Discussion.

    Bullocks! Prices are set by demand.   Demand dictates a ton of gold would NEVER sell for $1, unless you were the world's biggest idiot / victim.   Gold, like silver, is a finite commodity needed for many products today.  Not to mention for showy objects of desire and vaulting it as the best...

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    Me, oh my, did I say: "Jon and Linda Biloh"? Err, scratch that, that's not the name of either party.   Jon(athan) (?) Bilohskijikaski and Linda Clarke,  that's more like it. Neither are going to "subpoena" anyone or sue.   That's been thrown dozens of times at people in passing years.  That...

    The Almighty' Bitcoin Discussion.

    I think it is a goofy as worthless paper fiat money. Where to start? The instruments are rather abstract.  Good luck getting mass adoption there. The value is way too fluid and suspect to mass losses as well as gains.  Outside unrelated corruption influences already have caused unnatural...

    iwStack, the new Prometeus pay as you go Infrastructure Cloud Service is out! :-)

    Someone is spending some cash :) Is this all out of box storage on the SAN or a mix of in box and SAN or just all the drives in and out merged into one big pool of disk? Definitely a big step up from typical VPS setup.

    Hacking Transcend WiFi SD Cards

    Full wifi in a SD card??!?!?!?!   This sounds like fun! Anyone own one of these?   What are the product sales features?? Being able to get to your data without unloading of the card basically?

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    So we have: 1. Jack, a provider in the community who rented servers from Colocrossing.  He became displeased with CC and vocal (his posts here).  Jon and Linda Biloh started their yelling and legal threats or just to pull down GRE tunnels on Jack.  Jack retreated by pulling the posts. 2. Monk...

    Ghetto 12v UPS

    Batteries are indeed very expensive and have terribly short life. What I do these days is spec batteries based on the end need. Some examples: Offgrid out building - 15 watt solar panel on the roof - (4) SLA 12V 6A(?) batteries --- use = motion sensor (24/7 draw) and LED lights Bicycle...

    The truth about ColoCrossing

    Is that *really* G. Monk Stanley? Very interesting to see you here ;) The daycare kids ears must be burning right now.   Good time BTW to re-emerge and look around the industry.   Pre-game show right now, so still time to get that popcorn made and pull up a comfy chair.

    Follow Us - Colo@ Datacenter Facility Construction Progress

    Sure does.  These days I actually get physically ill from the noise and quickly.  It is nearly identical to motion sickness. I tend to run everything fanless in my work environments for this reason (non datacenter). If you are not as severely impacted, the noise still creates fatigue and...

    iwStack, the new Prometeus pay as you go Infrastructure Cloud Service is out! :-)

    Sal really should have spent a few bucks to have this announcement proofed/edited before sending it out. This industry makes me cry multiple time daily when I see offers and promo materials like this. I like Prometeus.  This just reflects poorly, looks careless with this piece.

    Ghetto 12v UPS

    I do a similar thing with an old UPS and a deep cycle battery much larger than intended to be in UPS.  Problems with that since when grid power goes down, it doesn't deal with things and goes offline real quick.  Battery is fine, so the unit is being smart and expected less battery. Problem I...
