    GreenValueHost tells their non high paying clients to GTFO

    Well, Kadar, if it makes you feel better your information is not going to a new company.  Green Valley and Hudson Valley are both part of ColoCrossing, despite their claims otherwise.  You're not being 'sold to a new company' so much as just shifted around internally.

    [123Systems Announcement] Server Upgrade

    Word of advice Andrew - anything you buy from them, get it in writing that it's a purchase and not a lease.  You'll hear all sorts of honeyed words, only to be told later that they never said such things.

    BitCoins for dummies. How to get started with them?

    0,02$?  The math on that comes out to 0,0014978585714286$ an hour - or roughly 13,12$ a year.  Does that even cover the extra cost in power to mine in the first place? O_o

    Black Friday / Cyber Monday

    This.  I get most of my decorations/etc a year early (right after the holiday in question, when it's all on clearance), and just bin it until the holiday rolls around again.

    Shardhost Info - Urgent Client Action

    Historically, these CC deadpoolers would quickly get absorbed into CVPS.  But it looks like Fabozzi hasn't made a move to "buy" (haha, right) the leased gear..  Nor has a "new brand" suddenly sprung up to take over.  I'm finding that far more interesting right now than the initial situation.

    IRC fuckups - did he really just do that?

    While true, fear of censorship shouldn't get in the way of common sense.  Maybe the new name caused a lot of people to forget that it's still curtisg behind that moniker;  a kid that on a regular basis either 1) threatens to 'hack' others, 2) tries to take credit any time some exploit is...

    IRC fuckups - did he really just do that?

    Am I the only one that wonders why we keep around the kid that keeps trying to turn this place into HF?  Discussion of security is one thing.. attempting to brag about "amazing deeds" seems like exactly the kind of trash this place doesn't need.

    Quiting smoking.

    I used to have an impact dummy (something similar to this) that I would practice on when I got frustrated.  HR made me take it out of the office because "people found it threatening" -_-

    Quiting smoking.

    Nightmares?  Gotta be honest, first time I'd heard of that.  I quit a few years ago when my wife and I started dating (she's allergic to the smoke) - aside from a couple cigars on the cruise I hadn't really missed nicotine at all until picking up the e-cig in Buffalo.  Still don't really have...

    Pretty much.  Network has been a 100% improvement for everyone, with a minor exception of a few CA clients.  That turned out to be a Bell Canada issue, and got resolved earlier today.. so now everyone's golden :P

    It's an easy thing to do when you never actually face up to someone.

    Shardhost Info - Urgent Client Action

    Folks sometimes ask me why we don't compete in price (the 7$/2GB 'RAM Race', etc).  I believe this shall be my new example.

    Black Friday / Cyber Monday

    It's a reference to the start of the holiday sales season, when store ledgers are climbing back into the 'black' (as opposed to red for negative).

    FrapHost donating to typhoon Haiyan victims (We also urge you to do the same)

    Not to belittle your PR campaign.. but as someone living in Louisiana I find the offhand dismissal of Katrina's (and Rita's, another hurricane that devastated Louisiana shortly after Katrina) damage and the effect it had on people here (Katrina was in 2005.. and some folks are still living in...
