There are language barriers too.  Not everyone speaks watered down Ameri-Spanish.  Some of these countries down there have other languages and decent use / adherence too.  That always causes barrier to the market. Definitely need more sea fiber from all these unusual locations and at rates...

I don't want to be that person, but if you are running a project funded by donations and it has decent appeal / use / traffic, most sensible hosts see value in that and should want to work with you at just a bit of profit (aka super deep discount). That's a real decent  box for the price at...

I avoid email like the dickens.  Because it's such a nightmare and the hoops to jump due to spam and abuse have ruined it for everyone. I have email accounts, but they are throwaway accounts and I normally abandon them. Most of my communication goes for IM, Skype, and similar.  File...

I think 131 entries is most I've seen in a Knowledgebase of a provider.  Good stuff. I am with @DomainBop about providers upping their efforts. I noticed the last 10 tickets notice after I posted... Foot in my mouth... I thought earlier this morning about this approach to calculating...

I like your submitticket page. Realistic disclaimer.  Hoping others follow suit and do similar. Consider me a math nazi, but if you aren't running 24/7 support  desk and assumed overnight is probably not covered and assuming 8 hours or more is reasonable away state,  how do you average down...

They are fine with CA filing / disclosure. Issue I take is timely with customers who had data go out there plaintext, including bank account/card data. Those customers should have been informed within 72 hours of the event.  Unsure if they were.  I really hope they were.  Feels like they...

That sure took them long enough. Customers were just notified today via email?

On average how long would someone wait for support during non staffed times?  Thinking maybe you cover the clock well, even though you don't man the desk 24/7. There are a bunch of other things I'd add to this list where responsiveness is expected.  Things like container not starting, IP...

Not a gripe with anyone I am working with / clients, but an evolving and growing gripe due to what I keep stepping in during research (read: shit). I continue to fail to understand why support is an afterthought at best in the hosting industry. This business is NOT PASSIVE INCOME...

First time I've noted those pcEngines boards :) $109 and $122 USD for them. Only glaring thing wrong with them is it appears to lack HDMI or any video out (or am I blind?).

arecord probably with a cronjob that files, runs for duration then dies where another one then fires off with a new time + data stamped file... ffmpeg is capable also. Old and moldy, but still valid: http://mocha.freeshell.org/audio.html

DO is delusional.  Fake cloud.  Yeah I know, anything is cloud to liberal minded. One day Uretsky is saying no competition with Amazon and Google.  Another day he's claiming game over for Amazon and Google. Now DO wants to be a features company.  Features are mighty hard to sell or show...

Man that's a nice spec on the Odoo.. Gbit + SATA + x86/x64 Intel + 4GB of RAM support + eMMC and related other storage slots. This looks to be the board that will break things open for low power / small board as desktop.  At least for me it looks like it. At < $100 it's priced decent...

Between you, me and a few others, well, we have a good start :) Beyond Skies is a new find to me...  Same old Horton fellow, never noticed this LLC before.  Weird stuff. Iranians :)  Bunch in there... again. Still not legal to take their money I think. 

QuadIX aka Volumix aka VolumeDrive aka We are a shitty company who rips vendors off? Meh, anyone going and doing business with those clowns needs sent to the island and decontaminated.

$8.33/mo low side or $12.50/mo high side. For 4GB????   $8.33 / 4 = $2.08/GB ... and you want SSD on top of that. No way these prices are happening, not at this point in time.  Lucky to find $4-5GB and probably not going to be SSD. Price is too low for any dedicated server...

I forget what the total stupid numbers were that were off / randomly set by Maxmind, if it factors out to a C-, that's seemingly good... mediocre. Guess I expect more... Since they've conned so many into their net and source of so much bad experience. Junior-level GeoIP Release Engineer...

Thanks for posting this :) I read this the other day.  What can I say? Irresponsible of MaxMind.   Place the coordinates in the middle of a lake or ocean if undetermined.  Been like this for a decade plus. I saw the potential in geo-location, however, every idiot has went this route and...

My dislike for Foster comes around his finger wagging post-hack event blaming it on panel software.   That contributed to the author of the software taking his own life.

I take it this clock matter is because they try it with old chips = electric burn.  They try it with desktop chips = cobbling misfit gear and might get crap for it from customers and maybe thermals are hell.  They try it with E5's but build costs are too high vs. income per node.  So they go the...
