    Can you post some day and night pictures from the DS-2CD2032-I? I might order a few.

    WHMCS to double their price of owned licenses.

    I don't mind the increase at all. We were paying monthly until we realized we paid them $574.20 and decided to save some money by ordering an owned license last year. As everybody else has said, $99.95 is nothing compared to if you paid monthly for a year so double the price for updates and...

    Regarding new offers and post counts.

    They tried that and removed that requirement, hence what this thread is about. ;) Since that rule didn't work and only promoted shitty posts, we are looking for other ways to weed out the kids/spammers.

    Regarding new offers and post counts.

    Not sure if they are still using it but they were using BoxBilling for their invoicing before for the paid ads, could just as easily use it for invoicing for forum permissions.

    Regarding new offers and post counts.

    What about a pay-to-post type of subscription? I'm not saying a huge amount but any amount will deter the drive-by-spammers making $0.10/ad or whatever the going rate is these days. How about something like $2/month with the current restrictions still in place? Extremely affordable even for...

    Combozo.com -> %50 OFF Liftime VPS 8GB Ram $99/year 4GB Ram $66/year 2GB Ram $33/year [Phoenix]

    That's not what you said at all though. You told somebody to check archive.org but archive.org has nothing for your domain (the link you posted says "Oops, something went wrong."). I am 100% sure that Google has no record of you prior to November 2014 so I find your excuses for not having a...

    Combozo.com -> %50 OFF Liftime VPS 8GB Ram $99/year 4GB Ram $66/year 2GB Ram $33/year [Phoenix]

    FYI - Archive.org has no record of your website from before March of this year and Google has no record of your domain prior to it's registration last November. Did you use a different domain perhaps?

    Regarding new offers and post counts.

    @HalfEatenPie my biggest gripe is these providers who post ads and then when a staff approves it they have to reply "what data center?" or something else that the provider needs to answer to be compliant with the rules. I guess it makes sense to get rid of the 5 post rule, but don't cave in...

    Regarding new offers and post counts.

    I vote that people who can't follow the rules and post spam should be punished instead of removing rules. That CoMBoZo clown is a prime example. He posts shitty posts to get his count up so he can spam us and then he doesn't even follow the rules and then the mods here approve his thread...

    32 or 64bit system? Which one to use?

    In benchmarks, 64bit has always been faster although we're talking about such a small margin it's doubtful anybody would notice except on a large scale in which case you're running 64bit anyways because of RAM usage.

    Usernames used by people here

    In the US, lenders see a lack of credit history a huge gamble because they don't know what to expect. At least with bad credit history they can plug in the numbers into their magical algorithms to figure something out instead of just "0".

    Usernames used by people here

    It's a forum, you should use whatever username you feel comfortable with. I use my nickname because if you do a search on Google you can find my history online (although an event in 2012 really screwed up the search results) which is very important for some people. Personally if I see a username...

    32 or 64bit system? Which one to use?

    There's no reason to go with 32bit these days unless you use software or hardware that is not compatible with 64bit architecture. Sure, there is a minor amount of RAM savings if you go with 32bit (64bit processes use more RAM, but it's not enough to make it worth using 32bit just for the...

    How To: Determining how many 'VPS neighbors' you have or if you are on an oversold OpenVZ node

    This thread got me thinking about how we can instill confidence in our clients and potential clients without the need for this useless number and I hope I'm on the right track: http://drgn.biz/servers/ For a fun little experiment, try to guess how many VPSs per node using the ranges below and...

    How To: Determining how many 'VPS neighbors' you have or if you are on an oversold OpenVZ node

    I'm talking about the same provider offering the same services for different prices like you are suggesting. If CompanyA is selling a service for $2/month but need to sell it for $20/month to avoid having a high number of VPSs per node then you're still getting the same service from CompanyA but...

    How To: Determining how many 'VPS neighbors' you have or if you are on an oversold OpenVZ node

    How is raising prices for the same exact service better for the clients?

    How To: Determining how many 'VPS neighbors' you have or if you are on an oversold OpenVZ node

     That's a bold assumption that might not be correct though which is my point. If clients see 600 containers and their VPS is slow, they would automatically assume it's because of the 600 containers and not something else and most likely cancel their service instead of opening a ticket to get it...

    IP Camera Security

    I was reading a DIY for making your own night camera using the RPi camera that I have, they did a comparison of a $10 IR light and some cheap IR lights off eBay from China and they both performed about the same. The DIY uses 2 IR lights for their setup and it works nicely from the pics I've...

    Just saw a nice hack that will turn my RPi camera into a night vision camera with some IR LEDs, might give it a shot or buy one of the pre-made ones online for $30. :)

    How To: Determining how many 'VPS neighbors' you have or if you are on an oversold OpenVZ node

    600 32MB containers != 600 4GB containers so again, without any additional information about the containers having a container count on the node is useless. You are correct also about the idle containers, that's why if the number of containers included usage info it would be much better to get...
