It seems among computer people, aviation is a common side interest. That is certainly the case with me, and I was shocked to hear of the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. Still am, TBH. It is amazing to me that a modern, well-equipped plane could disappear, but now that hijacking is...

Why, just because he wants hourly billing? I don't think so. Hourly billing is just one of the things that Nick is looking for, I'm sure that the current plans will remain intact, he just wants to expand his options. I'm most looking forward to the option of a /64.

An interesting tidbit if you're looking for iwStack in the US: 

As a client, I got in to hosting mostly because, as a programmer, after building stuff for a while, I wanted to put it online. Like many, I started with free cPanel hosting and such, not being able to afford/pay for (no credit card) anything else. Eventually I got a paid hosting plan with...

So how does this work? Have the drives shipped to your facility? Will you charge for installation?

Well it's not just the one server in New Jersey, you also mentioned Arizona, Illinois and Dallas. As I understand it, none of those locations are very close to being up and running. All good though, they'll be up soon enough I'm sure, and it will be pretty cool :)

@GVH-Jon could have been referring to @tonyg mentioning small screen size. Galaxy phones usually have larger screen sizes.

If I knew Python (and had time), I'd do it. I could certainly use that $20k - maybe pay for a year of college.

Well, it won't be "some random person". At the end of the post, Nick says: I'm sure he'll review any such e-mails thoroughly, get back to the person (or team) with further questions, ensure they know what they're up to, etc. before hiring them and paying them anything.

Works on my Chromebook (Acer C720).

On Friday, @Nick_A posted this on WHT, seeking developers for a new VPS panel to replace SolusVM. It look like a good project, and it seems like besides the core functionality that SolusVM offers, there will be lots of nice new stuff. You can read the thread yourself (pay particular attention to...

Hey Joe, don't you think you're getting a little ahead of yourself with that signature?

I already bought Pro a while ago :( Oh well...

I suppose it was inevitable...

That's why we need spam databases not run by robots - real humans can use "justified prejudice" against a provider who is known to be spammer-friendly, as opposed to robots just automatically banning IPs. 800th post, woot woot!

FWIW, I just had a quick look over the ownCloud.sh script, and it looks OK. It does reinstall Apache, MySQL, and PHP, but I guess it does so to ensure a clean and up to date environment. It sets up all the configs, downloads and extracts the latest version of OwnCloud to the right folders, about...

Just remembered that I did order with false info and no intention of paying, and their WHMCS mail hit my spam box - SpamHaus recorded the IP as dirty. Oh CC/CVPS, as if we didn't have enough reason to hate you.

Man, RamNode's upping the ante a bit here. Usual discount is 35% with VPSB35 (or LEB35), now we're regularly seeing 40-42%. So tempting!!!

I get all my bank statements online, which they don't accept :) And if they weren't accepting a tuition bill, why would they accept a bank statement? They seemed pretty adamant about having a utility bill.

Let me rephrase, then. They weren't speaking in a difficult-to-understand accent, i.e. it was likely US-based support instead of outsourced.
