If you're looking for a non-production environmentally friendly green computing solution I would recommend 123systems because all of their nodes feature a power saving mechanism that powers down the entire node for days or weeks at a time (bonus: their SolusVM install and website have this same...

In Jon's case (and a few other problematic child hosts), crappy parenting these days (exhibit A: the publicly posted suicide threat and police showing up at the door.  If it had been my kid he would have been spending a couple of weeks in the psychiatric ward getting much needed mental help and...

If you're using it for personal storage and computation an i7 will be fine and will save you a few dollars (just remember to check the drives when you first get it because they are used)

You're not the only one who thinks the numbers on StatusCake's 30-day widget are off: http://simplehost.phl.gd/2014/07/23/statuscake-30-day-uptime-issue/

Never mind, I got one.  HudsonValleyHost IPs, same as Isabelle Donovan's "former" employer GVH :) Question: since 60% of HVH/CC IP addresses are blacklisted by Spamhaus and many major email providers reject all email sent from them (a little fact that you, like most "Buffalo" sellers...

post a test IP please. :)

I'm being lazy and just glanced at the first couple of StatusCake charts on WLanboy's review , but my Observium monitor (in Dusseldorf) confirms a few of the short outages for that NL node earlier in the year (I'm assuming my VPS is on the same NL node). January 30th:  WLanBoy's StatusCake...

That's exactly what Microsoft Front Page did in 1998.. :) [insert 1998 comment again here] tl;dr I really haven't been able to get excited about the new generation of simple HTML generators for some reason...

The diminutive Fabozo in training has been given about 20 chances over the past 2 years on various forums and has blown all of them.  Based on the thread on LET today nothing's changed (forcing people to upgrade to a "24/7 managed plan" that doesn't provide any real management and isn't really...

660mg of caffeine per 12 oz cup...for comparison a 12 oz cup of McDonald's coffee has 109mg and a 12 oz Starbucks has 260mg according to this site

I don't think this thread is an appropriate place for you to be wishing death upon the low end segment of the VPS market.  Did you ever stop to think that if those spambots suddenly disappeared demand for cheap VPS's would drop off a cliff and dozens of providers would deadpool and their owners...

If it exists at some point there will be a security hole and you'll need to patch it quickly.  Every blogging platform including Ghost (and just about every piece of code ever written) has had vulnerabilities that needed to be patched at some point. One alternative I've used is B2Evolution. ...

Join my class action lawsuit and sign :P What was the exact wording you used when you asked your questions and reopened the ticket?

Fabozzi to AnthonySmith: Does anyone else find it rather humorous that the self-proclaimed king of the low end world operates his business from his room in his mommy's house and the address listed as his corporate headquarters is his mommy's house? DBop slap's self and takes time out in corner...

My friend google says namecheap probably isn't the one whose security practices were to blame for the BlueVM domain hijacking: BlueVM Illinois server hacked, data lost - LowEndTalk May 9, 2012 Bluevm Hacked Possible - LowEndTalk June 26, 2013 August 23, 2014

Does anyone know the name of a good lawyer??? Weeble raised their prices for existing month-to-month clients by 24 cents from $0.75 to $0.99 and gave a month's notice!  Other service providers like my cable company or electric company would never raise prices for existing customers! Boycott Weebles!

I think that is the reason I saw a huge increase in WordPress brute force attempts this weekend.  I had one blog with over 20,000 attempts in a 48-hour period. I haven't seen any increase in SSH brute force attempts recently but all of my dedicated servers are in Europe which may be why.  I...

That's basically my setup: pDNS master in Rotterdam on a Xen VPS, a mix of slaves (pDNS VM's and ClouDNS Premium) around the globe.

I asked on the Virtovo thread and Nippon said they basically buy from whoever is offering the cheapest deals when they need a new server so they basically have a hodgepodge mix of CC, and NWNX in Buffalo.  They also have some legacy servers in the CC datacenter cage in Dallas but I think the...
