    Looking for: Large SSD-cached KVM in United States

    That's at least what Marc said. Supposedly he's had a rough time with them over network performance, etc. He also claimed more locations were coming soon.

    New forum idea: Water Cooler / Laundry Room for drama threads.

    Personally I think the section is needed. It'll allow users that are signed in the ability to hide the section from their 'new content' pages if they deem so. Francisco

    Do you accept Bitcoins as a payment method? Why? Why not? (Plus other questions)

    We went ahead and added bitpay to our supported payment methods a few weeks ago. I don't expect mountains of signups because of it but I like the perks of it all. Francisco

    Looking for: Large SSD-cached KVM in United States

    PheonixVPS moved into Buffalo so I don't see why Damian would host with them when he could just send in another node himself. :) Francisco

    ColoCrossing / VSNX Starts it's Hostile Takeover of the LOWEND VPS Market

    I'm surprised by his comments that he was having major issues with the provider. I've honestly never heard any complaints in regards to his setup there so I was a little confused when I saw he moved. Francisco

    ColoCrossing / VSNX Starts it's Hostile Takeover of the LOWEND VPS Market

    Actually I can tell you exactly what went on since I was involved in the initial hand over. Scott became generally sick of where the community was with things and had spoken to me at least once prior about handing the site over to someone who cared In January colocrossing contacted him to buy...

    VPS with a dedicated drive?

    @Enterprisevpssolutions Yes, but one's dedicated and one isn't. :) You aren't going to find a provider that lets you rip 150 - 200MB/sec to the disk all you please for $30/month like Gabe was doing. It was an interesting idea :) Francisco

    VPS with a dedicated drive?

    There is in IOPS :) With the dedicated drive you can slam it all day long and it should be of 0 concern to the host. It's an interesting idea but takes a lot of jiggering to pull off. Francisco

    Flappy Bird flying away in less then 24 hours.

    20 is what I got. I got 5 - 6 games on it and got annoyed :P I see the ads now. I guess I wasn't noticing them before. Francisco

    Flappy Bird flying away in less then 24 hours.

    What was he selling in the game? Was there in game ads? At least on the android one I saw nothing 'extra'. At first I thought that there was 'levels' but no, it was just a rage fest :P Francisco

    Where do you buy your hardware from?

    Fry's is pretty cool but fairly overpriced. I needed power adapters for our SSD caches (or so I thought) and it ended up being $100+. Got back to fiberhub and it ended up they had a massive stack of the ones I *really* wanted (instead of the cobble together I did with frys' cables) and simply...

    What Constitutes a Datacenter

    That pizza joint had the sketchiest washroom i've ever seen. I felt like when I sat on the john that a dick was going to fly out from one of the holes in the wall. Francisco

    BlueVM Change of Ownership?

    I'm not sure about that. They had servers with a good half dozen+ providers when they first started. I think a lot of their stuff was mostly where Justin could find affordable deals on everything. When they moved into CC they lowered their node counts since they were using E3's now.

    BlueVM Change of Ownership?

    I know he mentioned an Uncle was sick or even possibly passed. I hope i'm wrong on the passing part, but I do know he said it was the person who raised him. Francisco

    SolusVM Themes?

    Can't you just use one of the bootstrap theme builders out there and replace the .css files? I doubt Solus did anything special outside of stock bootstrap 2.3

    Nightly backups enabled at BuyVM Las Vegas!

    Pfft ;) If it works, i'll be a genius. If it fails, it'll just be another Fran experiment :P Francisco

    Nightly backups enabled at BuyVM Las Vegas!

    We'll see :) Technically what I have in mind should mean 'instant' snapshots w/o the need to power off. The problem with that is things aren't in a 'quiet' state. You could very well end up with crashed SQL tables because they weren't closed properly. Francisco
