Rain once a week here, rest of the time it's sunny with warm days and cool evenings :)

Relatively speaking, I haven't been in this "industry" for long. To date, all the hosts I know were either outside the CC camp or well inside for as long as I'd known of them. This is the first I remember a provider going over to the dark side. As of now, I have a VPS with them in Dallas with...

Install/set up Tor. Go down to your local convenience store, gas station, mall, or almost anywhere and pick up a $20 prepaid VISA/Amex. Pay cash. Use a "private browsing" window for the next three steps. Grab a random identity from fakenamegenerator.com. Might want to screenshot the page for...

If there's one thing besides lack of adoption that will kill IPv6, it's providers not knowing how to set it up right. I know most LE hosts around here don't do /64s because SolusVM doesn't allow it (yet another manifestation of this problem). DO had a chance to do it right, and it seems they...

Yeah, kinda makes sense. D.Strout.com would be awesome, but strout.com is taken - as are many common last names I assume - by Hover, who sell e-mails based on those last names. Thus, I could get [email protected] for my e-mail, but I can't get d.strout.com. I did just register "vidstrout.com", so now...

Something of an opinion poll here. I own the domains DStrout.net, D-Strout.com, and DAStrout.com. My name, of course, is D. A. Strout. DStrout.com is taken by someone else (my great uncle, actually). Currently I'm using DStrout.net, and have been for a while. My e-mail and website are currently...

Fired up a DO SGP droplet to test. Still no /64, but they give you a range of 16 addresses, so that's an improvement. (Only gave one address during beta) One address is automatically configured, the rest configurable with ip -6 addr add. I'm also glad to hear from the blog post that they're...

Nice, I'll take a look at it.

Thanks for the input so far. Plan is currently to launch with Rage4, Internet.bs, Namecheap, and Cloudflare.

Exactly. Yeah, that one was on the radar. Looks like they have a good API setup. Internet.bs and Namecheap seem to be popular around here. I'll have to look in to their APIs. Any others?

As some of you may recall, a while ago I mentioned working on a domain/server management system for the vpsBoard community. Though the system will be set up to be able to use a custom-made DNS setup, I also want to support common DNS systems that have public APIs. So my question is simple: which...

Yeah, I'm fully aware of that, but you could have said something like this:

Really @drmike? We all dislike CC around here, but I'm a little surprised you wasted your time writing this.

Did you mean Equinix?

/u/??? In answer to your question, see this.

What's up with your L.A. looking glass? Why are some plans Miami+Germany and others are L.A.+Germany?

Several things: the cheaper certificates are just for basic encryption that won't freak out browsers. Stepping up from that, you get wildcard, which costs more because of more "surface area". More expensive ones include features like SGC, which upgrades the cryptography levels on the server by...

Refunds for forgotten cancellation are irrelevant - if you're just "a day late in cancelling", you'll only be charged 16 cents. They want you to forget you have one running at all.

I can do those - $300/day, in one-day increments minimum. And you pay travel costs to get to me to receive the hug. I bill starting from when you depart. Or you can get hugs here.
