    Child labor in the low end segment

    What isn't false however is that child labor laws in New Hampshire prohibit 16 and 17 year olds from working more than 6 days per week and 30 hours per week during the school year. $10K fine for each violation (http://www.nh.gov/labor/documents/child-labor-guide.pdf )...I won't even mention the...

    Child labor in the low end segment

    If you're a business and you violate the child labor laws of the state/country you operate in it is a huge issue and risk because the fines for violating child labor laws would put most low end providers out of business.  The risks of being reported are also high.  A competitor could report you...

    Child labor in the low end segment

    MannDude mentioned this in the other thread which might be worthy of its own topic: " contract workers vs real employees", etc.  In the US there is a fuzzy line between contractor and employee, and many companies have learned the hard way (i.e. been hit with fines and demands to pay back payroll...

    VPS Benchmark Testing is Useless. Creating better benchmarking tests.

    I both agree and disagree with your "probably not a virtualized solution at that" statement. Virtualization can be a very good solution for mission critical, resource intensive, or any app that requires a stable environment IF you're using your own server and divide it up into a handful of VPS...

    [Newbie] What are the vital things after setting up VPS?

    cPanel uses a lot of RAM (and there is a monthly fee) and eCommerce scripts can also be resource hogs so you won't have much room for growth with a 1GB VPS if you install CPanel.  What I would suggest doing is using Centminmod (http://centminmod.com/ ) instead of CPanel.  Centminmod is a command...

    GreenValueHost forced password reset - Security breach?

    conspiracy theory: Jon is upset that nobody started any new GVH threads today so he's DDoSing himself to get attention. :P My suggestion to GVH would be STFU and not give any details about the attack to anyone until the attack is completely mitigated. DDoS attackers epenis sizes (and the...

    GreenValueHost forced password reset - Security breach?

    inb4 MannDude says to keep it on topic... Someone alerted me to this which is on topic:  when ordering a GreenValueHost VPS one of the options is: Maybe it's just me, but a company that doesn't even bother to harden its own billing site offering server hardening services to others for a fee...

    Whether it's a compliment or not depends who you ask. :P Jimmy Wales has been one of the TheRegister's prime targets over the years (he's not too fond of them either).  http://www.theregister.co.uk/Tag/jimmy%20wales
