    The cesspit / chat thread.

    Not usually very educated in any traditional sense. They are malicious and easily made angry. I'd say the attack type depends on the tool(s) they are using.   Most will attack just a hostname or single IP.   Ones that are more malicious and have more flexible resources for attacks or...

    2016 Phone / VOIP standout services and products

    @willie thanks! I'll pull up the vpsBoard thread(s). The LET thread was meh.  The SiP provider route is really foggy.  Setups are usually running toward Asterisk or buying another device I haven't bought yet (tiring of collecting boxes of old used once gear).

    How do you do staff?

    If someone invests 50% of the value / capital of a company then they are an investor and ideally have deep liquidity to risk. Workers don't usually do investment deals as part of their job role.  They invest to realize returns. You'd be very hard pressed to find anyone to take such an...

    What happens when your outsourced Twitter bot goes nuts or gets hacked

    So I am taking more to Twitter lately.   I dislike Twitter, and intend on trying to do something more with it just cause so much data ends up there. Was looking at the list of Tweets on my daily toilet role and Colorado (allegedly) based VPB Hosting went off the rails today.  This is the...

    Verizon to buy XO Fiber business for $1.8 Billion

    Should note that Icahn has a personal networth estimated at $21 billion.  He has lost at least his shirt recently as oil prices have plummeted.  Some will speculate this sale has relationship to that.

    2016 Phone / VOIP standout services and products

    This is interesting too: http://www.callcentric.com/dids/free_phone_number It's an inbound only line for "free".  They have to pass along 911 fee, setup for such and related taxes.

    2016 Phone / VOIP standout services and products

    Looking to the collective wisdom here for input on phone options and VOIP companies. Needing to light up a few phones with real phone number.  VOIP is preferred.  Not interested in another cellular/wireless phone. What are gals and guys using for VOIP that is priced pleasantly and works...

    Storage VPS Options in Europe - Time4VPS?

    Feel free to PM me with notes.  Appreciated. I didn't realize they were that big of a shop.  I thought they were a tiny-like little company.  80k customers is quite a few. Thanks for the other recommendations.  I don't buy much over the pond or recommend much over there.  Save me a wasted...

    Storage VPS Options in Europe - Time4VPS?

    Saw the new banner for Time4VPS here on vpsBoard: Welcome to them! Been waiting and watching this brand.  Seeing if their deep discount model with generous discounts would sustain. Anyone around here use their high volume storage plans?   Looking for something in Europe for a project...

    ARM has legs. Real world use.

    Looks interesting.  1 watt sounds high relative to total envelope of other total solutions.  Hard to guage on ARM these days what is power to CPU vs the rest of the package.

    The 2016 (USA) Presidential Election Thread

    Interesting input as an outsider. Sanders is an interesting character.  I like some of his stances. Others go a bit too far I think into entitlements (which I don't think the rich, the poor, the rural, the urban, the blue, the green, the corporations or anyone else should get). Does...

    FREE domain (for WHMCS license holders)

    Because they can.  Like most digital goods, there is no compelling reason for things to cost more than a few dollars per year.
