    Or if anyone wants to run their own setup I believe this should let you: http://gnudip2.sourceforge.net/

    The only engineer in a business meeting..

    It wasn't bad really.  I mean those are obviously just the "extreme" incidents I had there.  Wasn't bad.

    Is there any interest in a cheap stats/metric service? [e.g. $.05/metric/month]

    Also to add, if you use the Observium Agent (forgot the actual name for it), it can also monitor Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.  I have it running on a private installation of mine and it works fine.  Granted sometimes it's a PITA to work with because there isn't much documentation on it, but...

    Is there any interest in a cheap stats/metric service? [e.g. $.05/metric/month]

    This is mostly geared towards websites but Statuscake can possibly be one? https://www.statuscake.com/paid-website-monitoring/ It's around 6 pounds a month for the "every 1 minute" check.  It's decent from when I used it last. Also, 5 minutes isn't that bad in my opinion.   But if you really...

    The only engineer in a business meeting..

    Haha while it is true they're basically saying buzz words (lets face it, they don't know what they're talking about and yet think they're more knowledgeable than the "expert"), it's part of the expert's job to clearly communicate with those non-expert/technical individuals in a way they...

    How would you organize dozens/hundreds of vids on a page?

    There's multiple approaches. Yep like what @tchen said the accordion is probably the most favorable. There's also the Youtube approach, where each "playlist" basically just lays out the previews of the video in a standard table-like format (like so: http://www.youtube.com/user/Vsauce/videos )...

    The only engineer in a business meeting..

    ... This has happened so many times. "Can you find the difference between ___ and ___?" "No, because those two variables in no way have any relationship to each other because they're totally different to each other." "Yeah but we need to make this graph." "But the graph would be incorrect...

    Captcha for your ssh login

    While I probably wouldn't use this for a production server, I think this is a pretty fun and interesting thing here!

    3 Atom Invites (GitHub Text Editor)

    Huh. I'm kinda interested but I'm not that big of a coder :) If no-one else takes it then I'd like one :D

    Tips for an Upcoming Provider

    If these are owned hardware remember to keep spare parts on site. 4x 2TB SATA hard drives at 7.2k RPM should be fine to start with but I'd suggest SSD-Cached to improve I/O (this can come later though). Good choice on Hardware raid. Personally, I'm not a big fan of E3 nodes, but whatever...

    RockVPS offering Linux and Windows from only $4/month

    Test IPs for both locations? I'd like to know a bit more about the datacenter you guys operate out of Raleigh, NC. :)

    ioncube vulnerability in loader wizard

    Zoned.pw links are pretty pointless because they regurgitate other people's findings (and is just a script kiddie trying to act cool). Here's a more detailed version about this: http://www.firefart.net/multiple-vulnerabilities-in-ioncube-loader-wizard/ Basically, if you've updated your...

    I like how the low salt picture just has a giant pile of salt right next to it.

    Burstnet Los Angeles - Next on the chopping block?

    Hm didn't know it extended that back. Nevermind then. Yeah seems reasonable. Nope. Because this is mostly focused on BurstNET LA and @Collabora's experience while that thread's just focused on the news bulletin itself :P If it ends up coming to the same thing then yeah sure I'll look into...

    DigiPLUS Assumes Assets of BurstNet, Relocates Main Data Center

    This has been locked because another discussion on the same subject is going on here: Please refer to that thread for the continued discussion. Thank you!

    Burstnet Los Angeles - Next on the chopping block?

    While I agree that ordering from Burst right now is pretty risky, I do have to state that you probably should have waited longer than 6 or 8 hours (or however long you've waited) for a reply form support.  Given their current load I'd say waiting at minimum 24 hours before pulling a chargeback...
