Not a Burst customer but this looks interesting... http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1342218 Short version: "I cannot stress this enough to all of our clients. If you do not have recent offsite backups get them ASAP. As the email states, we are willing to work with our clients and...

After thinking more about this, there might be some merit to this. - Node.js scales better (in theory - I don't have any practical experience with it) - Ghost can run on MySQL or sqlite (or even Pg) - There's no one providing free Ghost at the moment - Ghost at the moment requires a VPS or...

There's a million people providing that.   OK, maybe only 10,000 but seriously a lot of people do free cpanel. @KuJoe even wrote a book about it :-)

I think the OP thinks ipv4 costs are significant for providers. They're not. KuJoe posted at WHT that some providers pay 25 cents a YEAR for IPs. I imagine you need some modest scale to get those prices, but it's not like SecureDragon is Amazon. The idea that "I'll only do ipv6 and can...

Gatsby was a service that bought pies, ate half of them, and then provided the remaining half to vpsboard moderators. No, seriously...it was free hosted WordPress blogs.

When I first saw Gatsby (@ElliotJ), I had two impressions:    (1) That's a really nice site design, and  (2) That's a great idea - wish I'd thought of it.   Now that it's gone, last night I was thinking about what it would take to create something similar.   So What Do you Need?  ...

IT was fundamentally different then.  Everything was "run this set of information through this algorithm".  I'm using the term "algorithm" loosely - it could be sort by customer last name, sum up total sales for the month, etc.  There really was not a concept of "put a database somewhere and run...

I'm guessing this is a combination of: significant monthly expense (he rented a dedicated server to run it, plus some CDN I think) significant monthly headache...besides just the sysadmin work, there were probably tickets and questions and wordpress patches and plugin X that had an issue and...

I guess I didn't verify they're all his - just there are a lot of $21 million domains on eBay.  Search for 'domain name' and sort by price descending: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=domain+name&_sop=3

That's certainly the best domain auction artwork I've ever seen :)

In the US, virtually everyone who works is "in the market" because we all have 401Ks.  Even public sector employees with pensions (or the few remaining private sector people with pensions) are only one step removed - the pension invests in the market. Investing long-term in an index or similar...

Riiiight.  For every hour you sit at work, get up and stretch for 15 minutes.  So you are only working 45 minutes out of every hour?  Maybe if you work at Google or you're willing to stay at work for 10+ hours. These is an old wives' tale.  There's nothing wrong with drinking cold drinks...

You could "integrate" them without having them on the same server.  Not clear what the OP means. Is it just "you create an account in WHMCS and an account in Joomla is also created" or something like that? Similar look & feel?

I've never understood the economics of the gun market.  From what I've read, guns themselves are nearly zero profit, especially now that the Internet is available.  Gun dealers charge, say, $25 to handle an Internet transaction and often that's about the profit they make selling guns.  One guy...

Though naturally, now that I've thought about it again, I'm tempted anew :-)

True, though for AWS, Azure, etc. you can't really compare them to the rest of the market.  They have the engineering staff to dive into the Xen code and customize it.  Most VPS providers (even big ones like Linode) do not have the resources to do that. It's sort of like a presentation I...

Your site doesn't have an AUP - the link just goes to the terms.  So are people free to run forex, bitcoin miners, IRC servers, bit torrent, etc.?   I think I've found the source of your abuse  :lol:
