Ain't no 'tic' in alcoholic.

Hey, so I've been thinking of training the rats to trade in Binary Options ('CALL or PUT' etc.) then presenting them as an outsourceable labour force to the brokers. I've noticed most contemporary BO brokers are run by cockroaches (Blattodeas) and I feel they would see significant performance increases if replaced with the rats. Will probably tunnel the ticker tracks through an array of LEB w/ cutting edge consumer grade circa 21st Century SS* based encryption, or if not that at least try to upsell the roaches on LEB hardware (a luxury compared to their current setup). Any provider suggestions?

I get the usual followers on Twitter.  OpenVZ, Docker, a few InfoSec consultants, 100 randoms, handfuls of clients here and there, the vendors I work with, Tay Zonday....

Who is Tay Zonday, you ask?  Silence!  ...I keeel you.


Other than a few comedians from Portlandia I met through some friends, this is by far the oddest and most random follow I've ever been proud of.

Provider vs. Proxy doesn't seem to be going anywhere, any interest in a Web Hosting State Actors Gone Wild / Data Expropriators Bare It All! thread?

Thinking something along the lines of Exquisite Corpse's KOFF Calendar (NSFW) meets http://embarrassmentparty.biz, but consisting entirely of self-published images and transcripts of State Actors in the Web Hosting Industry. No arrogation of course and at their own volition, comfort levels permitting.

Asia's largest cloud provider Aliyun/AliCloud is having a sale! Get a 1GB ram server with a 1 Mbps connection in their new Singapore datacenter for 15% off! Hurry, sale ends January 20th!, http://intl.aliyun.com/campaign/singapore .  


^^ I could understand limiting connections to 1 Mbps in many places in Asia but not in Singapore.  I'll be sticking with Leaseweb in SG.

To be fair, you can choose to have a metered connection instead and pay per GB (if I remember correctly).

If the 'IP Justification' form given to you by your provider is not a .docx in Comic Sans, it's probably a forgery.

What do they do with these things anyway? Isn't it just one of those forms they have to have just in case?


I've given a range of reasons over the years and never once was denied (or checked AFAIK).

Yep.  Basically they just hold on to it and then use the same information to request new IP space as justification.

Good question. I've never requested one / wouldn't know.

Really? That's kind of hilarious seeing as how I imagine they could just as easily (or easier, really) make up their own justifications when requesting new IP space. Why in the hell would they ever have to 'use the same information' sent to them by a client for such requests?

Just wanna let everyone know to watch your liver. 


Lost a very good friend of mine last week.  Was in the hospital for two weeks before that.  Liver Failure.  He drank a ton (and by that I mean he would black out drinking every night and would often be drunk by six before we had dinner).  Don't put your body through that.
