    Microsoft's new browser: "Microsoft Edge"

    It looks slick. It's a shame they were never able to shake the old IE reputation, though. They spent so much time & energy trying to make it better but I guess it just didn't make sense to bring it into a project thats entire basis is 'Rebirth, Rebuild'. Windows 10 is looking to be a real hit...

    Ghost.org: where the money went

    Honestly the fact they have money in hand is still a really good thing. Dell's aren't cheap, you pay a high premium for the fast repair contracts as well as Dell's firmware lockin's they do on their PERC cards. Developers aren't cheap either. You should check out some of the gaming...

    Did the GVH site just get ripped by 'GreenValueNetworks'?

    Misquoted, not the same guy, but more 'same drama'. But, guess I owe another pizza :P Francisco

    Did the GVH site just get ripped by 'GreenValueNetworks'?

    Honestly. Given the shit we saw with the database leak/mass emailing, I wouldn't doubt if this guy was being supported by GVH. Remember the 'hackforums worker' guy? I got a pizza bet on that one being the same. Francisco

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    Todays big project has been working on the new site. http://new.buyvm.net/ http://new.buyvm.net/index.php/vps/openvz/ Proper URL mappings will be finished at a later point once I feel like dicking with lighttpd. Pretty happy with it so far. For the most part i'm just working on turning...

    EIG Stock Investigation

    The brand was valued at much much lower, like ~40M range, so if it went for 225M..... what the hell. Francisco

    SendGrid: Employee Account Hacked - Customer Credentials stolen

    I think at this point people are starting to get their own personal domain and just make a [email protected] for each site you register to. This way you know who's been compromised or selling your details. Francisco

    EIG Stock Investigation

    Yikes. EIG has always been an interesting one. There has been more than a few rumors of them paying way more than a brand is worth just because they wanted the brand. I get being excited for a brand but its supposedly happened multiple times now. Francisco

    SendGrid: Employee Account Hacked - Customer Credentials stolen

    Considering they walked off with a ton of verified email lists, yup. Those will sell for a pretty penny on the black markets. Francisco

    Baltimore Burns.

    I think people need to remember the guy that emptied an entire clip in that dudes back. He's getting murder 1 charges and got fired. The police department acted on it instantly once there was proof of wrongdoing. There was proof for the guy that got choked out in New York but they decided to be...

    BlueVM sold / change of ownership? (UPDATE 5/14: Now owned by ChicagoVPS)

    Honestly, given how many VPS nodes CC/CVPS has you'd think they'd just hit up Virtualizor for a deep volume discount. Between them all they must easily have 300+ VPS nodes for the direct brands alone. I'm pretty sure Chris is still uneasy about any sort of end-user SolusVM access given how...

    OpenVZ releases RHEL7 source code of kernel 3.10

    Oh you bastard I was mid way writing this before I got the twitter message from @vpsboard :P I'm excited as hell for this. Bad news, the current VZCTL obviously doesn't work with it but there's a call to action in place requesting people help implement the 2.6.x API's to make it backwards...

    SolusVM cancelled services bug

    What's that? Fran's right again? Aww you shouldn't have. There's logic to all of my madness, I assure you. I have no personal life (that's a bad thing) and I spend a retarded amount of time doing research testing/etc of ideas. There's countless hosts that try to implement our...

    BlueVM sold / change of ownership? (UPDATE 5/14: Now owned by ChicagoVPS)

    Well, that more or less confirmed that Justin isn't part of any of the brands anymore. I feel really bad for their dev team to have to try to convert the DB to whatever system they want to move to. Francisco

    Cloudflare Thunderstorms Pirate Bay Proxy

    It sounds like an easy way to force torrent sites/etc out of hiding and into DDOSville. Given the types of sites they cache/proxy (every booter out there, countless terrorist sites, tons of torrent sites, etc), you'd think they'd stretch their "we just cache/speed things up" and move that...

    BlueVM sold / change of ownership? (UPDATE 5/14: Now owned by ChicagoVPS)

    AHAHAHAH oh holy balls I remember that fustercluck back in the day. I keep forgetting that's Justin. Francisco

    BlueVM sold / change of ownership? (UPDATE 5/14: Now owned by ChicagoVPS)

    They've been bought out/taken over and the new owner is unknown (likely incredibly busy doing mop up work). They said to expect something soon and given they've been open about it so far, I don't see why they'd lie. Francisco
