    Is this the end of ASO/EIG?

    Let's see if I can help... Glowtouch is one of those companies indeed...  ^^ That was in 2012... nice 1-to-30 ratio and shows where their energies and interests are. Vidya is about 44 years of age.  A few years older than Hari. Related?  Yes. More human abuse... Next...

    Who is the paranoid now? Apple.

    I believe Made in Taiwan as much as I believe Made in USA these days. Legit, Taiwan manufacturers, but I'll wager a Wimpy Burger that components are mostly sourced from China.  Very likely it's a parts assembly setup with some value add there in Taiwan. And Foxconn, yuck that company...

    Is this the end of ASO/EIG?

    I missed this earlier.... Same old shit really.  Lets drive work to the cheapest labor possible. Glowtouch / Diya reminds me of many shops I've told to go jump in a fire in the past when they came offering their services.  Difference with them than most is they are here in the States as...

    They have supervisors and managers that were remote workers also?

    Who is the paranoid now? Apple.

    Interesting drama around Apple's own cloud hosting aspirations. "And it worries that some of the equipment and cloud services it buys has been compromised by vendors who have agreed to put "back door" technology for government spying, according to a report from The Information's Amir Efrati...

    Microsoft creates AI bot that spams Twitter with Overt Racism

    Craziest mess I've seen in many years. Microsoft released a Tweeting bot the public could interact with. Allegedly an AI project.  Quickly the bot went to insulting Mexicans, Jews and blacks. MS blames it on troublemakers finding exploits in the bot.   Me I think the creators of the bot...

    Is this the end of ASO/EIG?

    Must say the schtick about VPN is a hoot.  Where is the fail, on their own operated servers or does every worker have shitty internet. I'll wager one Wimpy Burger on: Vast majority of their remote workers are NOT in the United States.

    It's impressive how bad Crissic got when Quadranet took over

    No doubt they dropped people on the floor when they bought.   Any cheap brand has high turn over monthly.  If you aren't selling products actively (which they have no public sales site or ongoing sales) you will drop 20-50% within 3 months.  Crissic was a personality brand like most in the cheap...

    Virtual6.net Ceases Operations for unforeseen reasons :)

    There is what I was looking for :)  Paid support. €588 year isn't too bad since it's a bulk all services coverage.  I can see small shops not affording it or refusing to prioritize this.  No way anyone should be on OVH offering services without this yearly buy-in. This amount isn't much...

    It's impressive how bad Crissic got when Quadranet took over

    In fairness hours wait for tickets are common, regardless of the marketing speak many of these companies push. Crissic had wait time on tickets before it was sold.  If you ticketed when it was US overnight you would have waited deep into the morning typically at least. Problem is hours now...

    Virtual6.net Ceases Operations for unforeseen reasons :)

    If one can only have biz model with a single vendor in the entire universe, then that biz model is not viable.  Genius how that works.  Like watching natural selection in the form of a business. Yeah it is, you are a good bean counter :) I recall this.  Quite horrible.   Seen too many OVH...

    Virtual6.net Ceases Operations for unforeseen reasons :)

    More failed business ventures due to [lack of caring] [lack of funding] [lack of contingency planning] [lack of business]. I refuse to deal with companies like this and I refuse to deal with a company like OVH.  OVH wants your identity documents which is overbearing.  Yet, when something...

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    That's the whole schtick.. People are obsolete, the computers think and tell you what to do and believe, even politically speaking. It's a strange new world.

    Kindle e-ink device users forced to upgrade or no internet.

    Amazon like many of these tech-tarded companies is very problematic.  Amazon has been and continues to siphon money from unrelated business to go fund another than wrecks everyone and drives 'competition' out of business.  What they did to the book industry was horrendous and I've always...

    That's pretty awesome and an engineered internal to Softlayer feature.  Nifty indeed.

    Kindle e-ink device users forced to upgrade or no internet.

    Bezos remains a f'n bum.  Profits of Amazon vs. the destruction they create for brick and mortar are out of control. Yeah I am no fan at all.  Their website sucks, still, their tablets and OS makes me want to buy Microsoft stuff just to attempt to say something sucks as much. Amazing they...

    Kindle e-ink device users forced to upgrade or no internet.

    Bezos probably needs to hotload more malware onto the readers.  Quarterly profits yo'.
