Captain's Log: Hour 8.
Still without power. Packed everything in the dark. I found a candle and a flash light. It seems only the residential areas do not have power (commercial areas and high density zones do have power (e.g. apartment complexes)).
Yep. Life is "grand".
So its been three hours since a storm knocked out electricity to my local neighborhood block. There was a temporary 10 seconds of electricity burst ten minutes ago but its down again. Besides for my cell phone, I have no internet and my netbook is pretty useless without WiFi (no I don't have...
Oh we've been trying to get networking taken care of because several people have been having issues. Because it seems like we're fine to Australia, I was jokingly stating that we accomplished our job. I mean my VM container in Australia takes a while to connect to (directly at least), so...

Performance is decent but every once in a while the network blips.
Comcast is my ISP so it goes from Comcast (Central PA) -> Comcast (NYC) (111 8th Ave) -> nLayer (East Coast US) -> CloudFlare (UK)

2. RamNode - Nick runs one of the best operations I know. That's all I can really say. Even with the Solus event Nick kept a cool head and...
And... now I'm immediately jealous.
I used to rock climb every now and then. Haven't found a good place near here that works for me but definitely jealous. I mean look at that picture!
Short Answer: No. It's not feasible. Unless you overload the server so much that it becomes almost useless... Or the company closes its doors.
While the servers themselves do have a single-time cost (excluding obvious maintenance cost (e.g. cost of replacing broken hardware, etc.)), it...
Ehh, I'll post my shenanigans here. I'm from Fort Collins, Colorado. Currently in State College, Pennsylvania. In a few days will be on a plane ride to Seoul, South Korea (like actually moving there for a few years).
I'm assuming you want clients on these VPS Containers then? Are you planning on using a control panel?
This does add up. Also, finding the "cheapest" really doesn't mean the best (although the companies currently mentioned I do applaud).
