    Hetzner Adds 8-core ODROID-XU4 ARM Based Server Line

    Nice to see someone else jumping on this. Online.net really bombed with Scaleway to me, not because it wasn't a good offering, but because the network seems intentionally slow (like lucky to pull of 10mbit to most places) on those things when we all know online.net has a great network.

    IT'S OFFICIAL - GreenValueHost is Closing and Jonny Nguyen is Leaving Hosting

    Haha, come on now, we all know he'll be back. The company may be a new name, heck he might even have a new name.

    PayPal USA Policy Changes Announced 4/30: Intangible Items Covered Starting 7/1

    I'm not entirely thrilled about this. I want to know that PayPal will take note of people who frequently open disputes and have a tendency to side against them. If you repeatedly sign up for vendors that you so desperately need a refund for that you continually report fraud to the payment...

    BREAKING: Comcast to Dump Time Warner Deal

    At this point I'm just wondering who is going to be Ma Bell of this industry. These cable companies are acquisition machines.

    Ghost.org: where the money went

    I did for a bit. Will likely consider it again in the future. I'm a big fan of Ghost, but less so of node.js in general.

    Ghost.org: where the money went

    I'm not a fan of what it's built on, despite the popularity of node.js it just feels like a passing trend to me, not the long term standard that something like PHP is for web app development. Yet, I'm a big fan of Ghost. This is quite interesting to see how they spent their money. Props to...

    Baltimore Burns.

    Station military at the town's borders, assist anyone who wants to leave, come back when they're done killing each other. This isn't how civilized democracy works, but the problem will solve itself if we simply declare the city a disaster zone and let them do their thing. I'll gladly donate...

    Device security while traveling?

    The only device I store things on that I travel with is my phone. Ten password failures and the device wipes itself.

    EIG Stock Investigation

    After the market opened today it's still higher than what I sold at. The stock remains at a good position. Yesterday's dip to around $16 was probably the most powerful impact that this report had, and it's rebounding. At this point (meaning soon after your post, not at the time of) it's simply...

    SendGrid: Employee Account Hacked - Customer Credentials stolen

    That's really rough. Time for two factor on literally everything?

    What are some of the best VPS companies?

    I'm a BuyVM cheerleader. You just can't get their features, price, and DDOS protection in one place anywhere else.

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

    The address doesn't seem to imply much as it matches the Org/POC with ARIN for Justin late last year: http://whois.arin.net/rest/org/JJ-29/pft Unless of course the address matches someone new and they're just keeping the old name. Address is clearly residential though.

    VirtKick, the Open Source Panel goes Commercial!

    Should be interesting to see where they go. I don't think we've actually heard their real plan for distribution and billing yet, because I'm not entirely sure that what they've mentioned will work. I suspect we will hear of another transition on that. Regardless, they've got funding and...

    Why Don't Providers Do This One Simple Thing ... To Make More Money?

    I've seen, in the past, some odd correlation between pre-funding and abuse. Have other providers seen this?

    Special offer from XFuse Solutions -_-"

    No purchase, they were given away, apparently along with extra contacts like former clients such as myself. XFuse gets no pass here. I reported to SpamCop, I encourage others to do the same. I'm sure Mandrill takes notice at some point.
