    Catalysthost OpenVZ 128MB (TX)

    You happen to have a total uptime value if possible?  By that I mean uptime percentile (99s?)

    A nice nas offer would be....?

    More than 4 TB then?  I mean for regular people 2 TB is good enough for most backups and such.  Unless you have scientific data I think most people's "backups" are of movies or pictures.   Also, "Providers Hangout" is only available for people who have the Verified Provider tags.  This is not...

    A nice nas offer would be....?

    I think NAS as a hardware should be something that's heavy in storage.  A model with more storage and more hard drives would be preferred for raid.  I mean wouldn't more people be interested in fault tolerant storage option?  I would consider it anyways.

    The Reincarnation of a Bulletproof Hoster - Krebs on Security

    Update: http://krebsonsecurity.com/2016/08/hostsailor-threatens-to-sue-krebsonsecurity/ read the rest of the article for the full details, but most important part I found "lol"y.  vpsBoard eh?  Anywho, interesting regarding the legal notice.

    What is the Data Center Cost of 1kW of IT Capacity?

    Interesting, thanks for the additional documents.

    What is the Data Center Cost of 1kW of IT Capacity?

    You know what.  That is true I'll give you that.  I may have misunderstood some key details then (pardon me, since I'm not an expert on this topic anyways... armchair datacenter researcher wheeee!!!!).  I guess some of my bias may have been involved in coming up with my understanding of the...

    What is the Data Center Cost of 1kW of IT Capacity?

    Hm interesting.   I can't stop but see Ponemon as Pokemon. Jokes aside, the research paper they've published focuses on simply addressing the goal/idea they want to express and I think they missed some valuable opportunities to perform a proper analysis.  I'm sure it works and makes sense...

    Soo I moved to Birmingham, Alabama to work at KnownHost! :)

    Nice.  Good piece.  So love living in Birmingham then?

    The cesspit / chat thread.

    I'd love to agree with this, however IPB's licensing setup is pretty ridiculous.

    Crissic booting old customers

    I'm sure you could possibly talk with them and ask them for a small extension (if it's possible for them) while moving out.  However, yep seems it's come to an end.  I guess I'm just glad I never touched Crissic.

    Haha I think he means the amount of offer threads popping up.

    vpsBoard is now adsBoard

    Might be surprising, but I've stopped posting on all forums (except for this one).   As they say in french, werdz. In a totally unrelated comment, been really busy with day-to-day work.  Seems less and less time for anything else really.  Spend the entire time at work then don't really...

    Ehh...  Some people do do their drive by but I've mostly been just checking up every now and then and post a few things I like.

    Smartwatch

    Yeah see that's what I was thinking.  My phone's a Samsung Galaxy S7, but the fact that Samsung went with their own OS instead of Android Wear like others do (e.g. Moto 360, LG Urbane 2, LG G Watch R, Huawei watch, ASUS Zenwatch, etc.), I don't know mate.  It seems like a bigger chance to get...

    Smartwatch

    Anyone ever got/use a smartwatch?  How good is it?   I've been thinking about getting one and have been looking around.  Moto 360 Gen 2 and Samsung Gear S2 looks interesting for me but I think I'd prefer the android wear simply because it'd integrate better with the OS. I however also...

    ARM has legs. Real world use.

    Yeah fair enough in regards to raw computational power vs power consumed it makes sense.  However then additional time and effort (and management) needs to be taken in to focus on parallelization of  the software + troubleshooting.   This is mostly my concern.  I mean raw power and focusing...

    Laptop with Long Battery Life

    A bit old, but my Thinkpad X240 with the extension battery.  10 hours.   That was my solution to this issue. Now, I also purchased a Chromebook Pixel for my web browsing needs and that one works like a charm.  However, not as good of a battery as the Thinkpad X240, but it's still great...

    ARM has legs. Real world use.

    How do you guys feel about using ARM as a primary desktop setup?  I mean I can see it working for a basic youtube/web browsing + Web IDE coding platform, but for anything higher than that I think it'd be difficult to justify as a proper setup.
