    What happens when there are no more ipv4 addresses left?

    What ISP is it? Most of the U.S. providers have plans for IPv6 in the near future, unless it's a very small provider for a single city. I use Charter right now and they don't have IPv6 for residential, only business customers, but that'll change soon.

    SpeedyKVM, Dallas, 50GB RAID 10 SSD, $6

    Gordon, any reason you deleted my account and refunded me? I purchased your service because I know your Incero brand is reliable, and needed a small server elsewhere in Dallas.

    Crissic has been acquired by Quadranet

    I don't think they "expect" all of the things you listed, people get cheap servers when they don't need 100% reliable service and support. LIke the guy above said, his server didn't get used for the most part, but simply having a cheap server available when you need to do something (occasional...

    Future of Shared Web Hosting?

    I think the user is more specific towards a company running shared cPanel hosting on a dedicated server, not a VPS. Typically companies that focus on shared web hosting wouldn't toss dozens of people on a small VPS.

    If you just want something quick with a single domain just point your root domain to your VPS IP and upload your forum scripts to /var/www/html (Apache default web directory). Linode has a well put together guide below...

    Summer just started... Cortex Networks scam

    I thought summer was about to end? Anyhow, that is funny, but I remember seeing a thread on WHT from him looking to hire people a few weeks ago. It's sad to see how desperate people are to just hand out access to everything they have now...

    You're basically saying that you would rather be a monetary asset rather than a valued client.

    Site5 and Verio accquired by EIG

    Never thought Site5 would have sold to EIG. Seeing how the owner of Site5 talks on WHT in the past, he never struck me as one to sell off his business. Wonder if they'll keep all of the same employees?

    Centarra.com Closing as of September 1, 2015

    If you're a competitor of course you're not saddened to see them go. I won't write up the paragraph of text that I want, but I've used Centarra for over a year and the network has been solid for me (being local to Dallas). Despite past of individuals ChrisK has helped out quite a bit in the...

    Grooveshark co-founder dead at 28.

    I used to use Grooveshark all the time until a few months before it shut down, hopefully they will find the cause of death sooner.

    Any good Linux YouTube channels to follow?

    Is YouTube the only option? I think learning better would be reading through guides on specific areas. I personally think it's a bit easier for new people than watching videos, but it might be different for each person. I don't have anything to contribute in the means of YouTube channels though...

    [ASK] VPS Business from HOME?

    Despite the bumps on this thread (and I hate replying to old threads!), I wanted to ask this to the OP and in general for future views, but why not try to apply to work at a larger company that is already high up in the industry, or non-comsumer hosting related job for an IT company? There's a...

    What domain registrar you use

    I've always used NameCheap. I did transfer one of my domains to Google Domains when it first became public, but I didn't register any through them. On most holidays or similar NameCheap has $0.99c deals and whatnot, I think it was last "Black Friday" I got some good discounts that they were...

    Does a Verizon iphone contract really cost this much?

    When I got my iPhone 6 a few weeks after it came out with AT&T I had to pay $199 down plus $25/m extra on my plan ($75/m total, 1GB data) so it's not that bad really. Not to mention I had to pay a $500 deposit a year ago just to use AT&T as a cell service provider. Really they're all about the...
